Delete Album Genre

[ChrisLoh 0]

Hi,

(DAMN - wrong forum and no idea how to move or delete it. SORRY!!!)

I have sorted out many genres in my collection. I did this with a tagging tool for every single song. So all my songs are perfectly tagged now. I refreshed the metadata in Emby, but there are still far too many genres.

So I inspected some of the genres, I expected to disappear. These genres are associated with albums, not with single songs. I don't know the origin of thes "album genres", and of course I can not edit the tags of an album externally. Is ther a way to get rid of all "album genres"?

Thank you,

Pete

Hi, if you have tried Scan Library Files and Refresh Metadata and the rogue genres remain, then you could perhaps try removing them using the Metadata Editor of the individual albums. You could do this one-by-one or bulk remove all selected bad genres from one album at a time, as per image below:

I couldn't find a way to potentially bulk remove a selection of Genres from a library via the music Genres page though. Someone else may know a more efficient way???

If the rogue genres still appear after rescanning/refreshing, then you may need to investigate further? Cheers!
