Music Tagging Issues

Version 4.1.0.12 beta

 

I have a Music library configured with all of the metadata tagging and downloading turned off. In the interface I have a couple of oddities/annoyances shown in the screenshots.

 

in Tags.png you can see that I have Artist, Title, Album (marked here as "_Singles" and Album Artist (marked here as "Various Artists") filled in as suggested in other posts in these forums.

 

in Browser.png you can see I have a _Singles folder for some reason tagged with the artist of Alt-J, that's not a huge deal for me. However, You can see that several

songs have the artist of Piroshka even though they belong to other artists. When you pull up the metadata for a song (metadata.png), you can see the full path, the correct artist and title, but

album artist is Piroshka.

 

I thought maybe I had some bad data/tags and removed my old library and re-added it with a different library name (Jukebox vs Music). Is something amiss with my tags, configuration or other?

You can see this has happened several times in different ways; see metadata2.png

 

My folder structure is typically E:\_Music\Artist - Album\Track# - Title.mp3

except for E:\_Music\_Singles\Artist - Title.mp3

 

I'll restructure if I have to; to make it work properly. But, I feel like tags are being ignored or read improperly.

Ignore or Delete this topic. It seems like it fixed itself. I did a database VACUUM, etc, changed my Album Artist to Artist and rebooted.
