Describe the issue
When scraping audiobooks with audible, the genres and tags are not transferred correctly. Here is an example with the german audiobook "Rache" by Dean Koontz and the audible.de website:
You can see the genres and tags are not correctly.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Audiobookshelf version
2.2.1
How are you running audiobookshelf?
Docker
@advplyr commented on GitHub (Oct 28, 2022):
We are using Audnexus Api in order to get the genres & tags because the audible api doesn't give those.
Audnexus recently added support for different regions so it may not be updated for genres/tags yet. I can see those tags/genres it pulls is from the US version: https://www.audible.com/pd/Rache-Audiobook/3749900639
This is the audnexus request for reference: https://api.audnex.us/books/3749900639?region=de
There's nothing we can do on our end about this
@Hallo951 commented on GitHub (Oct 29, 2022):
All right, thanks for the feedback. I'll take a closer look, because sometimes it takes over the correct genres and tags, but then enters them all one after the other in the tag field and not in the genre field. I'll post an example here in the next few days.

Hi, here is an example where audiobookshelf reads the genre and tags correctly but assigns them incorrectly. As a test I used the German audio book "Mensch ohne Hund" by Hakan Nesser. The audio book was scraped with audiobookshelf and the scrapper "Audible.de".
Here are the screenshots:
As you can see, the genre and tags are read in correctly. However, they are not properly separated into genre and tags. Instead, everything is written in the tags. You can also see a wrong entry...
@Hallo951 commented on GitHub (Nov 1, 2022):
I thought again about the wrong entry "Krimis" in the genres/tags. Could it be that audiobookshelf somehow splits the string "Krimis & Thriller" at the "&" sign?
Maybe you should also add a filter that prevents the wrong genre/tags from being taken over if they cannot be retrieved from the correct website (audible.de).
@advplyr commented on GitHub (Nov 1, 2022):
This doesn't have to do with audiobookshelf, it is Audnexus API that is returning back this data.
As you can see Audnexus is saying they are all tags.

@Hallo951 commented on GitHub (Nov 1, 2022):
Ok, thanks for the feedback. Then I'll write to the developers of this Audnexus.
@Hallo951 commented on GitHub (Nov 12, 2022):
It looks like something is happening with the API problem...
@advplyr commented on GitHub (Nov 12, 2022):
Once they have deployed the fix then it will just start working in Abs. We are just making a request to their server for the data.
