JulesC 51 Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago (edited) I created a new Library for my collection of Music, so I can access it all from Emby. I just purchased a monthly subscription for "TheAudioDB" so I can use it on the Emby Server to help with populating music images, metadata, etc. The problem I'm having is that I have no idea on how to add this API Key to Emby for TheAudioDB plug-in. When I click on this plug-in, it says: "The plug-in has no settings to configure." The version of the TheAudioDB plug-in is 1.0.20.0 The version for my Emby Server is 4.9.3.0 Let me know if you need any additional information. Any help would be appreciated Edited 9 hours ago by JulesC
JulesC 51 Posted 8 hours ago Author Posted 8 hours ago Let me provide some additional information that might be helpful in solving this problem. My music is stored like this: \Music \Artist \Singles \Song_Title Plugins (for Music): - TheAudioDb - FanArt.TV - MusicBrainz (I just reinstalled it because I saw a post where "TheAudioDb" and "FanArt.TV" are dependent on it. Albums - 45% populated out of 581 items Album Artists - 5% populated with images out of 485 items Artists - 0% populated out of 623 items Genres - 0% populated (not sure if they're supposed to be populated or not All I can think of for now. Let me know if you have any questions.
JulesC 51 Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago (edited) UPDATE: once I installed the MusicBrainz plugin, the artwork and metadata started populating. So, I’m assuming that "TheAudioDb" and "FanArt.TV" are dependent on it. Question: 1. Do I still need to keep the paid monthly subscription for “TheAudioDb” or not? 2. Should I enable FanArt.TV within Emby for Music library and should it be primary or secondary? Edited 4 hours ago by JulesC
Luke 42085 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Hi, I haven’t heard of users paying for audio db. I think most should be about to use it for free. But yes, audio db and fanart both depend on music brains ids. The providers you enable and prioritize are your preference based on your media and what they have on their website .
