JaScoMa 33 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Hello.. Trying to get the proper album information imported into Emby; The Crow soundtrack. I've tried to identify the album and entered the proper title, year as well as the release UID from MusicBrainz. I also went to TheAlbumDB website and entered the code from this when I did the look-up. But it's still not grabbing the album cover and the first track by The Cure, it's updating the artist and saying it's Various. I checked the MP3 tags and they're all correct. Track name, Artist and Album Artist is entered with the proper groups. No matter what I do, Emby isn't updating the album information properly. Any ideas?

Luke 37065 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 What metadata providers are enabled for your music library for albums and artists, and in what order? Have you explored that so that you can see where the information is coming from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaScoMa 33 Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 For the library, I have: MusicAlbum metadata downloaders: TheAudioDB MusicBrainz MusicArtist metadata downloaders: TheAudioDB MusicBrainz MusicAlbum Image Fetchers MusicBrainz FanArt TheAudioDB MusicArtist Image Fetchers MusicBrainz FanArt TheAudioDB I've tried unselecting either MusicBrainz or TheAudioDB and tried look-ups this way, but for some reason, it keeps changing the artist for the first track from The Cure to Various. If I manually try to change the artist metadata, it won't save it. Once I enabled MusicBrains as a MusicAlbum Image fetcher, the album cover appeared properly. I'm running the latest emby beta too.

Luke 37065 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 For metadata you need to keep musicbrainz first, since audiodb is based on the musicbrainz id's, it needs to have that or it won't be able to find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaScoMa 33 Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Ok, I just wanted to try both. I was finally able to get the album cover to download properly and after entering the proper artist UID for the tracks, it grabbed the information correctly. Appears to be good to go. Thanks..

Luke 37065 Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Thanks for the feedback. at some point we should update audiodb so that it can search by name if the musicbrainz id's are not present. Then you'd be able to order them however you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
