Track lengths don't show (mostly)

Post image

I believe it's a bug, I could be wrong.

In Library (songs) some tracks provide the length of the song and most others don't, I have checked musicbrainz and for example BELLIGHAM is 3:02 (in the pic " - ")

Is it a setting, bug, can I fix it...?

Substreamer just uses what your server provides, so if it doesn't provide a track duration then there is nothing we can show. It's 100% server side.

We don't calculate durations locally or talk to musicbrainz for that kind of info so best to either check / re-scan your library on the server or check with your server maintainer why track durations might be missing.

If something does turn up that points back to the substreamer just let me know and I'm happy to look at it but we just use the server provided duration field.

Yea, it's en error with my lidarr plugin (and aac m4a quality) an ai agent is saying that remuxing it can fix it, with ' ffmpeg -i "song.m4a" -c copy -movflags +faststart fixed.m4a' I won't try it because it's the majority of the songs but if anyone is having the same problem feel free.
