FredrikT 22 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I recently installed a new Windows serer for Emby 4.8. I upgraded my old server to 4.8 first, did a backup, then a restore. Everything works fine, except actors (Cast & Crew). There are some old dll pulgins in various forum posts, but I'm not sure these work with 4.8. Is there any easy way in 4.8 to force a re download of actors (images only possibly)? The only fix now is to manually click on the actors, then Emby will download info and pictures, but this is rather tiresome to say the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37094 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Hi, try refreshing the metadata on the movies or series that these actors belong to. This will help obtain images for actors, assuming you have MovieDb or Tvdb metadata enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredrikT 22 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Forgot to mention that this is the first thing I tried, but it didn't help. This is the setting I have for the TV Shows for instance; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredrikT 22 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Did a Refresh Metadata with Replace existing images option. No change. As mentioned before, I had a previous Windows installation that i upgraded to 4.8, backed up, then restored.

Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Do these images still exist in this location? example Could not find a part of the path 'D:\Emby Server\Metadata\metadata\people\p\Park Seo-jun-tmdb-1347525\folder.jpg'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they don't as I did an upgrade to 4.8 on my old server, then a clean 4.8 on a new server, and then a restore from the old server. There are a lot of actor info that has been repopulated, but it seems that all the new stuff (and some old) is still missing.
