Server Version#:1.19.1.162 Player Version#:WEbinterface Longtime ago it works some time. Then mostly stop working. Then I see now that a new Scanner is avalible. Now it read some DSF Settings but Genre Type it is allways empty. I modified 2 Albums the Genre Tag / One Flac the other DSF. When I say Metadata actualicsation it works for flac but the DSF File will still empty. Now it can read the Year with out problem but not the Genre type. ---

DSF is not listed as a supported audio format: [https://support.plex.tv/articles/203824396-what-media-formats-are-supported/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/203824396-what-media-formats-are-supported/) > [@DSF metadata](https://forums.plex.tv/t/dsf-metadata/216590/2): > > Plex doesn’t read embedded metadata from .dsf files. The only chance you have is to fulfill the requirements for filenames and folder organisation exactly so plex can gather all metadata from these.

Thank you, but this not what I want. You make a lot of things inside from Plex what I nod need. But I want all Tags from DSF. I works one time. 2 ore more years it was a fault with the Year in Flac Files. Not is it fixt. Minimserver has a Setup from 17 MB an Minimserver can perfect read all Metadata ---
