I've tried most if not all of the self-hosted music servers recommended on reddit over the past few weeks and not a single one seems to support my use case.
I have around 110k music files, all MP3, all tagged in ID3v2.4. The album artist is alone in the 'Album Artist' tag and the main artist and any features are in the 'Artist' tag, separated by semicolon - shown here in Mp3tag.
But my issue is that every server wont separate the 'Artist' tag by semicolon and instead treats it as one long artist, for example here is the same album is shown across different servers: Plex, Jellyfin, Navidrome & Subsonic.
If I manually edit the metadata in Jellyfin by right clicking > edit metadata and then clicking save without changing any values it will update and show how I expect, with separate clickable artists for each feature. Jellyfin devs say this is expected behaviour.
Are there any other self-hosted servers that will support this properly or any settings that can be fiddled to get this working that I may have missed, or has anyone else faced similar issues and managed to find a resolution?
