Johnny Mercer is listed as a lyricist in the credit information, but the number of songs he worked on is not shown. The song counts are displayed for all other entries. In the Overview, he is listed as the lyricist for one track. Is there a specific criterion for whether or not the song count is displayed? Or is this a bug?

Works for me? (Qobuz version. Screenshot from iPhone but also works on Mac)

Hi @Suedkiez, thank you for verifying this; it’s very helpful.

To the support staff: While the above example involved local files, I also tested this with two other Qobuz albums. One displayed the track list, while the other did not.
It seems the display varies depending on the album version; differences in metadata might be the cause.
The track counts for the Harold Arlen albums also differ.

Most likely your local album doesn’t have the per-track data, so it can’t show it. Try clicking the (…) button on the album > Edit… > Album Options > Identify Album, then pick another release version. There are 22 of them and probably the metadata differs between them.

The Qobuz version uses the first one by “Riverside”, like in one of your screenshots, and this is the only one with this cover art. I am confused which version each of your screenshots shows, but try identifying your local album as the “Riverside” release, it should use the same metadata then.

Hi @Suedkiez, thanks for the advice.

I re-identified it as a Riverside album, and that worked (I also removed some unnecessary credits).
Since I originally added the album two years ago, there might have been issues with the metadata from back then.
If I come across any incorrect displays in the future, I’ll try using a different version(even though it’s a bit of a hassle).

To the support staff:
I’ve identified the cause as a metadata issue, so please let me know if you have any comments. Otherwise, please close this thread.

Hey @Yoshihiro_Kikuchi,

That’s great news, and thanks for tracing it back to the album metadata. Re-identifying the album as the Riverside release was the right fix, and it makes sense that the older entry had picked up different track and credit data over time. Enjoy the music, and we’ll go ahead and mark this one for closure.
