sezsat 0 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Hi Devs, we have two qnaps, the main one have issues with the emby server libraries database corruption, what i did was, removed the emby server and did a clean install, then restored a backup from the identical emby server from the other qnap (backup server), all goes well, but the collections did not generate its own primary display picture for the home screen, did put a custom picture and removed it then re-scan the whole library hoping that it will generate its own, but to no avail. is there any option or setting to reset/rebuild the collections? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Can you post a server log, but am guessing you are getting errors pointing to the old collection path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sezsat 0 Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 embyserver (6).txtattached is the server log after running scan library, still no image for the collections in the home screen, though i'm using a snipped copy from the backup server just for the collections to have a display image on the main server, btw what i did was take the backup config from the backup qnap emby server and restored that backup to the new qnap emby server, it might be that the collections path is different, although i have no idea how to correct it if that is the case, but if you can guide me, i will be able to sort this out, thanks guys.

sezsat 0 Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 maybe you guys can add an option within emby server just to be able to rebuild the collections, same as before when it used to be a separate plugin, that would be of great help, hopefully in the next version of the emby server.

Luke 37116 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Hi, to rebuild a collection simply refresh the metadata on the movies that are in the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37116 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Yes although I'm not sure what you're hoping it will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
