Identify search not working? And album overview missing


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi

 

Some of my music albums are not identified.

If I select the "Indentify" option from the menu and manually populate all the information like the Musicbrainz and TheaudioDB ID fields and click search nothing happens nothing is found:

If I instead edit the album info and manually enter these ID's and save. 

 

I then see this line of links is added

If I then refresh the album and all the metadata I still do not get an overview description appearing. 

 

Yet there is one here on TheaudioDB website, as I just added it. 

 

What gives? 

 

Thanks

This is how that album looks in the metadata manager

I also currently have two a-ha artists which probably isn't helping matters either.

We have a client-side data cache of audiodb data so if you just edited the audiodb website, try the refresh again in a few days and it should work. thanks.

OK thanks but why is the indentify search not working ? 

 

Actually for some albums that Emby had previously indentified correctly that did not have an overview description. If I added the overview on TheaudioDB site and refreshed in Emby then that overview text would appear OK for the album in Emby. 

 

But does not for my a-ha example in the screen shots. I think its because I have two a-ha artists that it is having problems.

It's because your identify screenshot you entered release group id, and left release id blank. when release id is left blank we currently do a lookup by name and that lookup produced an empty result set. we can improve that to do the lookup by the release group id, thanks.

What is the refresh delay ? Is there a way to selectively refresh it via audiodb id or musicbrainz id ?

A few days. Just use the buttons inside the web interface to handle your refreshes. Let us know if this helps. Thanks.
