Happy2Play 8296 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I think it is more of a database issue. Actors listed in folders that don't exist unless I hit save in Edit. How is one suppose to remove these erroneous entries? First image Metadata (path doesn't exist) Second Image Metadata (path doesn't exist) Third Image Metadata Have similar issue with Freddie Prinze Jr. But have a folder called Freddie, another called Freddie Prinze and another Freddie Prinze Jr. I manually deleted "Freddie" and "Freddie Prinze" but all three appear when "Freddie Prinze" is searched.

Happy2Play 8296 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 I think this one is movie metadata related but can't find where. But both show the same information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteMB 12 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 When the title field of a person isn't the same as the folder name, the connection with the movie profile is broken. Happy2Play, in your first example you have 3 different people where only for the third version on "Robert Downey Jr." the folder name is the same and you will see the movies/media where Robert is appearing in. Try changing the title field of de 2 other Robert's exactly as the folder name, the first to "Jr." and the second to "Jr". After that the links for these 2 people will be restored. Jr. and Jr are probably misidentified by Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit This appears to be media metadata issue that isn't displayed in Metadata Manager, but going to each movie in "Jr." they contain. <Person> <Name>Jr.</Name> <Type>Director</Type> <Role> </Role> </Person> Edited May 10, 2016 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37099 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Thanks. It looks like nowadays tvdb is strictly using pipes | as separators, so i'll remove the split by comma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
