TolkienBard 54 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I just moved to a new machine. All (well, most) of the movies and television made the trip to the new server. Inside the various media folders is all the metadata. However, after doing a complete library scan that took the better part of several hours, almost none of the images or entries are properly showing up. In those that the images are not showing up properly, none of the other information (such as actors and thumbs) are populating either. When I open a movie folder on the hard drive though, all the expected metadata info is there. server-63608108708.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8277 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Well a Library scan has not finished, or that is the wrong log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TolkienBard 54 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 I screwed up and grabbed the wrong log. I forgot about logs switching over at midnight. According to the dashboard and my CPU load though, the library scan was done. As it is, it seems like nearly every other process I have tried to implement has been experiencing one sort of hiccup or another, so I deleted Emby server, including all traces, and went with a fresh install. This seemed to fix the issue. The library scan took about an hour, instead of the nearly 13 it took yesterday and I am fairly certain the other features are working properly now too, though I am still examining to be sure.

Happy2Play 8277 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 The biggest thing with starting over is whether you do everything or not. Me my people folder is to large to start over. With Emby's setup now that is a folder that can and probably always overlooked and delete with all traces unless custom paths are used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the one folder that is going to kill me too I have a feeling. It was massive before, and I forgot about extracting it before I started fresh. It's going to be a PITA to repopulate that folder, but it will happen eventually. I lost some movies when the old machine died, so I will be diving into my backup drives to get those 600 movies fixed. All in all, it will probably take me 3-4 weeks to get everything back to where it was, anyway. I figure by then people should be mostly caught up, except for the new additions.
