Describe the issue

Hello !
The problem is the ID3 metadata in the audio files
For editing I use the Mp3Tag program
Until version 2.4.4, in the ID3 of the mp3 file, I entered the title of the book in the TITLE field, and in the ALBUM I entered the title of the series. Now it's the other way around: TITLE, you have to enter the series, and in ALBUM, you have to enter the title of the book.
And now I don't know, should I change the ID3 metadata in the audio files again?

Steps to reproduce the issue

Audiobookshelf version

2.6.0

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

This is likely not the issue since series is not taken from either of those meta tags. The ID3 tags are listed here https://www.audiobookshelf.org/docs#book-audio-metadata

I'm not sure what is going on for you but you may have a look at the scanner guide https://www.audiobookshelf.org/guides/book-scanner

I installed test Docker, clean installation. The problem still occurs,
if I enter the name of the book in the title and leave the Album
position blank, the name is displayed correctly. When I add a name to
the album, it is accepted as the title of the book

I don't think I understand. The album ID3 tag can be used as the title as shown in the documentation
