Emby doesn't show local artist fanart


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

I've started a complete rebuild of my multimedia storage and just found out that Emby doesn't show my local artist fanart if the folder name of an artist is "artist, the" (like "Scherzinger, Nicole" for Nicole Scherzinger). Names like Depeche Mode or Alphaville or Enigma are working correctly.

Is there anything I can do with Emby so it will work like I wish? Folder renaming is NO option for me!

 

Thanks a lot!

Is it just that image or all artist info?  As it sounds like the folder is not used and all images are actually going to \metadata\musicartists\namefolder.

It is with all folders which have this kind of naming. The albums are present, but the fanart images of the artist aren't "visible" for Emby.

See attached screenshots for Alexandra Burke and Aerosmith!

Dev will have to comment but yes as there would be a naming mismatch when you look a folder naming and artist naming breaking the library logic.

HI, currently no, although it's possible the server could try to normalize against this in the future. Thanks.
