[image] [How-To] Album Types and Editing MusicBrainz Group albums by type Thanks for the reply. I’m running a current server version and running the plex agents. I’m adding some pictures for reference [image] [image] [image] [image] [image]

ok… so your point is you don’t see / have the option to group albums by release types? On what platform are you running this server of yours?

I’m running it on a Synolody DS420j which is running DSM 7.0.1-42218 The last plex installer I used was PlexMediaServer-1.25.2.5319-c43dc0277-aarch64_DSM7.spk

Do you see the same result (last screenshot) if you disable all ad blockers / content / blockers / security stuff / browser add-ons?

I don’t use any adblocker on Google Chrome or any addon. I opened the settings using Microsoft Edge (which i never use) and the Plex app for windows and I still don’t see the “Group albums by type” option

I’ve been double-checking… it appears this feature is indeed requiring a Plex Pass membership. Sorry, I wasn’t aware of that beforehand :frowning:

Alright, thanks for the help. At least we know now.

IIRC the album types should not be restricted to Plex Pass members. Make sure your server is up-to-date, your music library is using the Plex Music agent (refresh metadata if needed) and make sure Settings > [Server Name] > Library > Group albums by type is set to enabled.

Is this only for Plex Pass subscribers? because I don’t see this option.
