[BUG] Multi-disc music rating copies across discs

I’m doing it from the album’s page so I click on the album to see all the tracks and play the album. As I do, I just click on the starts on the same page.

My tags are definitely correct, I paid a lot of attention to that and it’s just like you say, the “Discnumber” is just a “1”, not “01” and not “1 of 3” or something, I made sure those are perfect. As I’ve mentioned in my edits, I think I found the pattern, it only happens if two conditions are met:

  1. The album is not matched.
  2. The track numbers don’t contain the CD number in the file name.

For example, I used to name the files like this:

Best of Something (CD1) - 01 - Song Title A
Best of Something (CD1) - 02 - Song Title B
Best of Something (CD2) - 01 - Song Title C

Now that I changed the file names of the affected albums to this:

Best of Something (CD1) - 1-01 - Song Title A
Best of Something (CD1) - 1-02 - Song Title B
Best of Something (CD2) - 2-01 - Song Title C

it works fine. That is, I did the “Plex dance” and now I can rate each track individually, the bug will no longer occur. Again, the tags in those files are unchanged and still OK, it’s just the track name data within the file name that makes a difference for some reason.

As for the folder structure, it’s like this:

Plex
| - Music
| - | - Madonna
| - | - | - Ray of Light

and all tracks are in the same album folder so I’m not using separate “CD1” or “CD2” folders inside. For compilations it looks like this:

Plex
| - Music
| - | - Various Artists
| - | - | - Best of Something

That said, as far as I’m concerned, I’m good now, but if it’s supposed to rely just on the tags then it seems like it doesn’t, at least when it comes to ratings because it does generally correctly notice them, that is - it splits the discs correctly.
