It is possible to match a Plex music artist and Tidal artist? When I navigate to an artist in my library, I see my albums and Tidal albums from artist, but with some artists from my library, there is no “match” with Tidal artist. Can I manually match an artist from my library with the same artist in Tidal? Thanks a lot!

Anyone? For example blink-182 is identified in my Plex library as “blink-182” and the name in Tidal is “blink-182” too. Why are not matching?

I have another artist not matching, Static-X. Both artists has an “-“ character in the name, but It doesn’t seem to be the problem. I have another Ska-P artist and this is matched with Tidal.

I have deleted metadata identification and identified again in Plex Server, both artists, but nothing happens…

Can anyone help? Is this a bug calling Tidal API? Can I help providing logs, maybe?
