Super large album track lists not showing in library

General Discussions

I have a couple Library items that have tracklists of between 70 and 102 songs that I can In my library find if I search by album title, But they don’t show up under the artist name, even though when I click on go to artist, if that album is playing, it goes straight to the artist page.

Soft cell released A few albums on memory sticks (Cruelty without beauty, happiness now digital) And they will both play when I search by album title, but they do not appear in the artist album listings in my library. They don’t appear as albums, they don’t appear as compilations, they don’t appear as artist also appears on. Does anyone know if Plex has difficulty with Albums that contain tracklist of approximately 80 to 102 songs that aren’t broken up into individual discs?

Addendum: the album shows in the server library, but NOT in Plexamp unless I search by album title

Do you have “prefer local metatags” enabled? (don’t change, yet!)
Which file format is used?
Are the files tagged with “Album Artist” metatags? (i.e. not just “Artist” tags)
Do the files sit in a proper folder hierarchy? (Music/AlbumArtist/Album/Tracks)

Which Plex client type are you using?

MP3 format, hierarchy is good, cannot find a setting for prefer local metadata. However, tags are good and accurate

The album shows in the web app and the server app, but not in Plexamp unless I search by album title

On the “Advanced” tab.

That sounds quite weird.
Are you sure that you have selected the right server and library as media source in Plexamp?
