This is not under my control, and is actually from the media database automatically assigning the folder name to music. I also can't do my own filtering, as that will lead to collisions. For example, if an album has the name "0", is it because it's from audio files in /storage/emulated/0
, or is it because the songs are from Low Roar's Album "0"?
I understand, thanks for the explanation.
It's not a massive problem for me, just a minor annoyance sometimes with how album art is treated from #342 mostly. I figured I could at least make an issue for it to document it.
Ah, okay. Definitely something I could see doing though, so I'll keep this open.
Description
I would like for Auxio to not automatically assign an Album to songs when no album is given in the metadata. I would like a setting for this behavior, instead of assuming it intentionally.
Currently, some of my library has Title and Artist metadata, but lacks Album metadata. Auxio will automatically display the Album as the name of the folder which my music is stored in on the, "Now Playing" screen. I understand that some people store music and separate albums by folders, but this functionality should probably be a setting inside of Auxio.
Problem solved
No response
Other implementations
In my experience, other players will either provide a setting for this behavior instead of assuming it, or will only display Album data when present within the tags of the individual song.
Benefit
This will benefit everyone's usage of Auxio by not providing an incorrect tag when no tag is present in the file. A setting to determine this behavior makes logical sense, and would satisfy the needs of people who group things by folders/directories as well as by tags themselves.
