EduardoSantos 40 Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 As I read the release notes, Emby 4.6 version brings a lot of new things on music. These are very good news. From there I learned there's one configuration that preserves the old AlbumArtist\Album file structure. That should be done for every library and will also preserve existing nfo files and their info. But as I install the new version, it will assume, as a default, a "tag oriented" configuration. So... How can I set up the "file structure" option on each library to preserve existing info before server update and thus prevent data being destroied on new version's first scan?
pwhodges 2012 Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 The system will use the tags to form the main displays, and it is merciless in exposing inadequate tagging! Note that if you have a lot of music the initial rescan of your library may take a long time, especially as everyone upgrading together is putting a big strain on Emby's MusicBrainz server. You can instead choose the folder view, and unlike before, this is a true folder view that doesn't get sidetracked into being tag-driven at the end. The downside is that track listings, when you reach them, are very much simplified compared with the expected "album" view. This will be improved, I expect, but will never be the same. Paul 2
