@OzGav I have 1242 albums and not sure how I can now identify the wrong item and 'fix' the metada...
Would be great that the UI would still load and maybe show an indicator on the faulty album.

Also previous version did load my lib and I do not think I added content since then in my music lib.

That is correct as the plumbing has been added to support audiobooks and podcasts so checks to ensure only valid items end up in those categories is being done. It would also help if you provided the full log as requested in the issue template and troubleshooting docs.

I don't know how well MP3Tag will go with all the albums loaded but you can use that to search for tag values https://docs.mp3tag.de/filter/
