Ludek 2023-09-13 11:48 developer ~0072766	Not sure why it is taking this artist from MusicBrainz.. Assigned to Michal to look into it.

Ludek 2023-09-13 12:18 developer ~0072767	It seems that the first result from our MB server is a non-sence, while it gets correct results from the official musicbrainz server... Assigned to Petr to look into it..

michal 2023-09-13 12:21 developer ~0072768	FMFS tries to find artist in library, and if not present, it is searching in MB DB. The problem is on our MB server side, it should not prefer different name over the same name. Assigning to Petr to look at it. Original MB server returns correct "Davidson Brothers" artist, our server some "Shishimai Brothers" (in EN transcription).

lowlander 2023-11-10 18:14 developer ~0073429	I renamed the Artist Alice Merton to The Alice Merton and did a FMFS on Album Artist for it. The result is The Merton Parkas instead of Alice Merton. image-2.png (89,319 bytes) image-2.png (89,319 bytes)
