Before the recent refactor of recordings, genres were a subset of the user-defined tags. They don’t seem to exist anymore, the queries we used to use return no results. Instead, there seems to be a new table now, l_genre_recording. Is this where recording genres are stored now? In the latest docker image this table is empty.

Where are genres for recordings stored in the database now?

The genres are still exactly the same as they used to be. What queries are you using?

You are right. I just ran the query again and it returned the genres. I could swear that they were gone a couple of days ago. Just by observing it, the cat is alive again. Thanks!
