Songs

Folder Layout

The Songs library has no folder requirements, but folders can be a useful source of metadata.

Song Metadata

Songs will have basic metadata pulled from embedded tags (artist, album, title).

Song Fallback Metadata

Songs will have a tag added to their metadata for every containing folder, including the top-level folder. As an example, consider adding a songs folder with the following files:

└── Rock
└── Awesome Band
├── Awesome Album
│   └── 01 Track 1.flac
└── Better Album
└── 05 Track 5.flac

Your songs library will then have two media items with the following metadata:

  1. title: 01 Track 1, tags: Rock, Awesome Band, Awesome Album
  2. title: 05 Track 5, tags: Rock, Awesome Band, Better Album
