Updated music album image, track images still wrong


Recommended Posts

I recently added three music albums. When emby scanned them in, all three had the same cover. I hit identify, and updated the metadata and replaced images. Now the album view shows the correct image. But when I play a track, it shows the old (wrong) image. I would like to avoid manually changing 50 tracks one by one. Is there a better way to do this? Attached is an example.

I have tried:

1. Using refresh metadata and replace existing images.

2. Using identify and replace existing images

3. Making a copy of the mp3s elsewhere, using emby to delete media. Then move the files back to be rescanned.

 

EDIT:

I fixed one album and verified it was correct. When I then refresh the metadata, it goes back to the wrong image. Emby must keep a cache somewhere that is incorrect.

Currently albums and songs can have their own separate images assigned. This is something i plan to revisit and change to just album-only, but currently as the way things stand today, what's probably happening is that you've assigned an image to the album, but the songs also have their own images assigned.

I understand that. How do I fix it? I manually changed a few of the tracks to the correct album, but when I refresh the metadata or identify, the images move back to the wrong one. It doesn't make sense since the embedded image is correct and so is AudioDB and MusicBrainz.

I have a similar issue. I have 2 albums that are greatest hits, one is Queen and the other is Bruce Springsteen.
For some unknown reason even after changing the image for the queen album from the Bruce Springsteen one and locking the metadata, the album keeps changing on me.
Is there a way we can lock images also?
