Yeah Elisa relies on music having correct metadata. It also supports a usage
mode that doesn't require this: the "Files" view that simply lets you browse
the filesystem. Seems like in your case the metadata mode was the better
choice, and now your music is correctly tagged. Awesome!

After further investigation I have now edited the metadata and got Elisa to
detect all albums. Part of the problem relates to a "deal" when I originally
purchased this album decades ago back in the '70s when an additional track(s)
were released/sold with the album and some problems with the metadata data in
the metadata files I used from Discogs.

So the problem appears not to be an Elisa problem and this bug can be closed
because it is not a bug. It would be helpful though if this metadata issue
could be referenced somewhere in the scant app documentation.

As I said in my last post I found some albums once I realised some had been put
in another artist, ie. some albums are in artist ACDC and others in artist
AC/DC, also some are in both. Once I had a combined list I added a Format.jpg
file to each album folder that did not have this file and did a reset database
and rescan everything.

This is the album it won't recognise:
https://www.discogs.com/release/673094-ACDC-High-Voltage. Of note, this is the
band's first album only released in Australia and New Zealand and an album with
the same name but different tracks was released internationally (first
international album) at a later date. That said, the above link shows the
proper catalogue numbers etc.

How did you do it?

After some further investigation I have reduced the number of not recognised
albums to 1. Although things are still far from right as shown in the 2
attachments as the albums are split between 2 artists despite them being the
same artist. For some albums to be recognised a .jpg file needs to be added to
the folder although this is not universally necessary as sometimes Elisa
supplies it own artwork from somewhere.
