myblackhatch 1 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Running into an issue after updating my Unraid Emby docker. Now on 4.8.1.0. I have found that in every series I have. I name my files showxyz part 01, 02, 03, ...11 etc. All of a sudden, files from part 02 - part 09 have all disappeared. part 01 is shows up. I was working on uploading a new series and found that if I space the file name ex. part 02 .mkv instead of part 02.mkv. Leaving a space between the number and the . then it seems to show up. That's great to know for new uploades but I would have to go back and change a few 1000 names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Hi there, can you please provide a specific example? How are your files named and organized? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in unraid I have my media share. /media/media_type/show/season/filename The file names will usually consist of "show_name Part 01.mkv but not always. Some of my earlier uploads I did different things(but those all seem to be fine.) In my most recent upload I did all the files that exact same way, but files 02 - 09 would not show up, but everything else would. I went back and changed the file names to have a space between the 02 and the .mkv and uploaded the files to the server. Then emby will show them. After the original post I went back and started looking at other shows. If I have a space followed by text it seems to work fine but something about the .mkv touching the part # is causing the issue and only from 02 - 09.

Luke 37066 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 @myblackhatchcan you please show a specific example along with a screenshot of the files in the season folder? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movie Naming | Emby Documentation File stacking is not limited to movies. But real examples are always best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8282 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 You see all of them if you enter episode 1 as additional parts, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37066 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 2 minutes ago, Happy2Play said: You see all of them if you enter episode 1 as additional parts, correct? Interesting conundrum here. multi-part episodes have actually never been supported, although it has been asked for by other users over the years. What might be happening now is that it might actually be working by accident due to the a lot of the episode scanning having been consolidated to use the same functions as normal video scanning.

myblackhatch 1 Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 (edited) 18 minutes ago, Happy2Play said: What do you see if you enter episode 1 do you see additional parts like my image? Ahh, Sorry, that was going over my head. OK, SO when I click episode 1 it opens up episode 1 like it normally would in a queue which would require you to then click play. Whats interested is when you open episode 5 it shows the episodes that are missing as additional parts. Those additional parts just keep their file name. none of the information from trakt.com gets transfered over. Now if you have a show with 2 seasons. The 02 - 09 are still missing but you wont find them as additional parts anywhere because once you click on episode 1 it starts to play it.

myblackhatch 1 Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 (edited) after adding that space to 02 and 04 all of a sudeen im getting 02, 03, 04 and 05. Edited February 21 by myblackhatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8282 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Not idea but the naming scheme is the issue and will have to potential play with naming to get it to work for your needs. Quote Split video files (file stacking) The following are default stacking extensions that can be added to file names. # can be 1 through 9 or A through D. Stacking is supported for video files (but only when each video is in its own folder as in the example below) as well as dvd and blu-ray folder structures. Split videos require all parts be in the same movie folder with no other videos present in that folder. part# cd# dvd# pt# disk# disc# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So from what I can figure out I either have to remove the 0 from the part part0x or I need to add a space between the 02 and the .mkv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8282 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 But can say this is a change in behavior from 4.7 to 4.8. 4.7 Where 4.8 added them as additional parts in my limited testing. But file stacking is limited to 1 thru 9 per the KB. So this would be why OP is missing 02-09 as they should be additional parts of 01. Renaming dropping 01-09 to 1-9 did not really make a difference for me as it moved all additional parts to part 2. Nor did adding space at the end. Pretty much requires new naming scheme I just used x (Tracker (2024) partx01.ext) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 There's actually two issues at play here: user is naming their episodes as part 01, part 02, etc, which is asking for trouble due to possible interpretation as multi-part. I would suggest naming episodes using other conventions such as S01E01 or 1x01. the bigger question though is that episodes might be somewhat supporting multi-part now, so we need to decide if we want this or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep S01E01 part 01 and 02. Would think this is a plus to cover the edge cases. But using A and B provide multi-versioning S01E01 A.ext, S01E01 B.ext.

I'll get you over some screen shots as soon as I can. I forget why I started doing the files that way. There was a reason at the time, to make something work, but its been so long now I cant remember what it was now.

Maybe if it were explicitly part A, part B, etc, then I guess could see that, but I don't know if anyone actually does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep as I just miss interpreted "The following are default stacking extensions that can be added to file names. # can be 1 through 9 or A through D." as it still requires the specific prefixes. part# cd# dvd# pt# disk# disc# But variable as spaces are still accepted.

I wish I could remember why I started doing my numbering like that. It was originally to fix an issue but its been so long I cant remember what it was.
