Seemingly random albums not appearing after syncs

App version

Production

Issue description

When syncing, the album number is correct but on the album page about 20% is missing.

The albums appear on my jellyfin desktop and jellyfin on my phone.

I later figured out that saving Metadata on desktop and jellyfin causes the albums to appear.

Device type

Phone

Media provider

Jellyfin

Steps to reproduce

  1. Sync
  2. Go to albums
  3. Long select album to see less albums are there than should be and sync claims.

Additional information

Attaching a photo where it says 3 albums but only one is present, I was online connected to Jellyfin when screenshot was taken.

I figured out that resaving the Metadata causes the albums to appear.

Make sure you disable any filters in the Source Filter menu (the funnel icon).

Since I don’t know what’s missing it’s hard to tell anything.

There’s no errors in the logs, Symfonium adds all the albums that are returned by Jellyfin API.

Thank you for the suggestion. That unfortunately is not the issue though.

I Can see when syncing it grabs the correct amount of albums, but it doesn’t sync the correct amount of tracks then doesn’t display the albums.

As I’m writing this I am realizing that it’s probably not displaying the albums because it’s not syncing the tracks, even though the tracks appear and play on jellyfin without issue.

There’s not much I can do about all the bug of Jellyfin API.

But yes by default empty albums are removed after sync. If Jellyfin does not return all tracks from the calls but return them after you do something to the metadata, then you need to do that thing to workaround Jellyfin issue.
