My thought exactly. Since no files are being identified within the genre, where is LMS getting the genre name? Since the problem persisted after a complete virgin scan on a new device, it means that it's getting it from somewhere within the folder being scanned, presumably. I note the suggestion about playlists, but there are no playlist names with genre in them, and the playlists themselves point to files in the music folder, none of which appear to have the genre names. Not sure how that might work. I will look into extended tags, but if the tags are specific to files than those files should show up within the genre and don't. R.
