Music Library Showing Root Folder

[JsinFate 19]

Hello guys.

I noticed that when I use Emby to view my Music folder it actually shows the Music folder. When I click on the folder is shows the Edgar Allan Poe audio book I have for some reason.

 

 

Also, is there a way to view albums only or at least display all albums above the song list?  I would like to view only albums after I click on an artist name.

 

Thank you guys!

But that view does not come from structure it should be from embedded tags.

Thank you for the assistance.

I moved the entire folder off that drive and put it on my desktop. Then I used mp3tag to look at all the tags and could not find any reference to "Music" that Emby would be pulling from. I keep my mp3tags very simple and clean.

The only thing I did change was to move "Vincent Price" and "Basil Rathbone" from the Comment section to the Album Artist section

I move the folder back and now the Music folder is gone and I now have two entries. So one of those steps worked.

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction and getting me thinking!

 

Do you know of any way to show all of an artists albums as default instead of songs on top and albums at the bottom?

It only affects the web client, but you can uses some custom css in Custom CSS box.

div.details-additionalContent {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
}

div.artistSongsSection {order: 2;}

Or just this to remove songs

div.artistSongsSection {display: none;}

Thank you for the CSS, that worked.

Perhaps I will make a feature request to add some controls to sort and manage music for different platforms.

Thank you again Happy2Play!
