Hmm, it’s not a default one, but we kinda have to do that way if u want collections not to be a mess that the default one from Plex is.
See my Plex library, by default Plex makes so many random collections that are even wrong for the most part.
So for collections to be cleaner, i have to manually tag the one I want, from Plex (not Plexamp), edit the collection metadata and add a personel Label (compil musique for me). Then a new section is added into library, the label u just made, and that’s where my “real” collections are, to avoid the junkyard default one from Plex
Sry it’s hard to explain, specially in English
It’s not that important, but just just a lil thing that could be sweet for Plex users that are still doing that way for collections;)
So Plex don’t know about compilations right, it even throws ur compilations into “various artists” so it’s hard. There is a huge post about this on Plex forums, but I’m lazy right now.
So let say right now I want my own clean compilation section right, i edit a 1rst compil I wanna add so it creates ur own compilation section into Plex library.
Here’s how it looks ;
U go into label/etiquette, then down below in the collection box u type the compilation name u want for ur future compilation u’d want to have in. U’ll have to manually add/tag ur compilations like that…
Hi, I wanted to revisit this. In Plex, there is a section called “Album Collections” It is a way to group albums together, for instance I have collections such as “Albums Produced by Pete Rock” or “Albums from all Wu-Tang Members”. This is a great way to group albums in a way that is easier to navigate than dumping hundreds or thousands of songs into a Playlist. I see no way to access Album Collections in Symfonium. Would love this feature.
Edit I just discovered that the “Album Collection” data is stored in a tag…May be exactly what I’m after
Thank you
