@Happy2Play  I'm getting lost here.  Can you just tell me what I need to do to make this work?  It looks like I have they same situation as you, yet it is not working.  Does this need to be an audio book instead of music?

According to that the Album is NIV: The Listener's Bible.  I would assume everything has that album name vs the actual folder name ie 1 Genesis.  But your Metadata Manager image suggest all tracks in one folder/Album "NIV: The Listener's Bible".

Gotcha.  So, I'll have to use the metadata mgr to rename the albums to be like the folder names.

Why did Emby not pick this up?  Is it because the tags were already set to the  generic name and Emby used it?

What is the actual folder structure?  To me it looks like you need to change the embedded metadata though.

See the earlier post.

So, with audio, tags rules the day.

Yes all audio is primarily run by embedded tags.
