I use Jellyfin for my music collection, and sometimes the album artist and artist fields for the same artist will be populated slightly differently. For instance, I have one case where there are three different ways using &, ‘and’ and +. I have removed these from my library, updating them with manually with MusicBrainz Picard to use the same spelling, and reuploaded them to my server. However, it uses the old metadata still.
Is there a way to efficiently reset metadata for only certain albums so that these three instances are merged and I can access all three albums from the same album artist?
I had a similar issue (different media types but) where Jellyfin would not, for any bleeping reason, update the metadata to reflect changes in the media.
After an annoying amount of fiddling I just yanked the library in it’s entirety (as in, it was deleted) and then re-added it and on the new-library-scan everything updated.
Annoying, and maybe not entirely viable depending on how your library is structured - I have ~6 libraries for different things, so it wasn’t that big of an issue - but it did resolve it.
