Do these files have their title tagged in their metadata? (In reply to Alexander Stippich from comment #1) > Do these files have their title tagged in their metadata? Some of them, doesnt seem to affect it If the title is missing, the files should not be discovered. This has only been fixed in Elisa 19.2.2. Do you have baloo enabled or disabled? If enabled, are the unrecognized files in a location not indexed by baloo? (In reply to Alexander Stippich from comment #3) > If the title is missing, the files should not be discovered.

Where do i enable Baloo ? in system settings -> search -> file search It looks like I have this problem too, or at least very similar. Some albums or entire artists are missing in Elisa but are visible in Clementine. These files aren't any different from the rest. Baloo is enabled and works correctly.

On my laptop, some files are not found because they are classified as videos files. You can check that with balooctl utility. It looks like those files weren't indexed, although I don't know why. After using 'balooctl purge' those albums were found. Great, sounds like the issue was with the Baloo index, probably an old one. There have been a lot of improvements recently so I'm not surprised that re-indexing fixed the issue. Glad to hear it! qik00yt, does rebuilding the index with `balooctl purge` also fix the issue for you?
