Hi,
I am somewhat lost. Trying to figure out where KODI is retrieving its music information from for this particular issue.
I have found that some artist names are stored online using non-english language which makes usage of it within a English based music library within Kodi pointless. For this reason I corrected these manually inside each songs mp3 file to make sure my local artist song information is in English.
But when I scan the mp3 into the Kodi library the non-english artists names suddenly appear.
I tried different things without success.
Made sure the option "Scan music tags" is enabled, "Use online information" and "download extra information during scan" disabled.
But still they appear.
Below an example for the song "Believe" using Kodi v17.6
See example song images here
Hope someone can point me to the right direction of resolve. :-)
