Add Music folder for my Library in Emby

[user101xy 26]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to add a new library (Music). Locate the folder on my NAS and select the folder as the location for my music. However, no albums or tracks appear in my library under Music.

Did I miss something?

What do you see but sounds possible embedded tag related. 

Are your track tagged?  How are they organized?

Do you have real-time monitoring enabled?  If not, did they show up after the nightly scheduled tasked?

[user101xy 26]

I don't think the tracks are tagged. They are organized in one folder (OneDrive) on my ASUSTOR.

Real-time monitoring doesn't tell me anything, I don't think so.

I should have a look, but I don't know where.

I thought it would be easier.

Any other suggestions?

Albums and artists come from embedded metadata within your audio files, so if you don't have this, then you won't get them. The songs tab of your music library should still be populated though, once the initial scan has completed.

If tracks are not tagged you are required to have /Artist/Album/Track structure to interpret it.

But if folder or Song is empty then we will probably need to see the server log showing a scan of that library.

Thanks!!!!

I set user and admin permissions to read and write in my ASUSTOR and now I can see all the music.

Let us know how you get on. Thanks.

I added the folder volume1/home.... in Emby.

But before, i set read and write permission depending on the folder in my NAS.

 

Now i can see all my Music in Emby.

 

Did you mean this @Luke?

I was talking about information within audio files, not permissions, but it sounds like you're all set now.

Unfortunately i don‘t know which Information my audiofiles have. But yes, now everything‘s fine….
