Navidrome

New Metadata Extractor

I’ve been working on a new scanner that uses TagLib and will enable Navidrome to handle multi-valued tags. It also fixes some small quirks caused by ffprobe/ffmpeg (Ex: #465). It is not complete yet, but it is already in a releasable state, and can be used to replace ffmpeg in most use cases.

The default metadata extractor is still ffmpeg but the you can use the new taglib extractor by using the config option Scanner.Extractor = "taglib" or ND_SCANNER_EXTRACTOR=taglib

There aren’t many new features in this release, but a couple of bug fixes and translation updates were enough to justify a new release.

Highlights

• [Scanner] Initial support to use TagLib for extracting metadata from music files (#480)
• [UI] Add option to add a playlist or album to the play queue (#481, thanks @AndersMoberg)
