DarinM 6 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Greetings. I'm running Emby Server 4.7.11 on my FreeBSD 13.1-p6 server. So far everything has been excellent except for one issue.. I've been trying to get the TV Show library set up and for whatever reason it does not like King Of The Hill. I have removed the library and re-created it a few times now and the same thing happens. I've also purchased Filebot and used the wiki guides on proper naming of TV shows and no matter what I do it will not identify King Of The Hill and put everything under one item in the top level list like all the other shows are. I can go through the items it mis-identifies and mark it as KOTH and tell it to rescan. But then I get 13 KOTH entries at the top level. Is there a way that I can consolidate them all together and get them under one entry? Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3321 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 How does your folder structure/filenames look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarinM 6 Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 It's just like the wiki says: TV Series \G - M \King Of The Hill (1997) \Season 01 \King of the Hill - 1x01 - Pilot.mkv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution GrimReaper 3321 Posted March 18, 2023 Solution Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) Try naming series folder: King of the Hill (1997) [tvdbid=73903] Also, put those specials in their own Season 0 folder as per: https://thetvdb.com/series/king-of-the-hill/seasons/official/0 Edit: What meta-scrapers do you have enabled in your TV shows library settings and in what order?

DarinM 6 Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 OK.. I've moved the specials into Season 0 and I've added the tvdb number to the directory name. The scrapers are as follows: Series Metadata Downloaders The TVDB TheMovieDb The Open Movie Database Season Metadata Downloaders TheMovieDB Episode Metadata Downloaders The TVDB TheMovieDb The Open Movie Database Also, is there an easy way to clear out the 13 entries that are there now? I just want them removed from the database. The only way I've seen to do it is to remove the library and re-add it to force it to scan everything all over again.

No need to remove whole library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarinM 6 Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 Thanks! That seems to have worked.. The TVDB number in the name and rescanning has consolidated it down like the other shows. Don't know why that was necessary but it worked. Thanks again! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
