Movie Library Scanning

[lsl283 0]

Hi All,

 

I'm new to Emby and setting up my movie library against my NAS. It's scanning the TV shows perfectly fine, but it's ignoring all the 1000+ movies (almost entirely MKV format).

 

This has been working fine directly from Kodi via SMB for years, any ideas? It scans successfully, but finds zero movies. Structure of the folders is /Movies/MovieName (Year)/MovieName.Year.mkv etc.

 

Cheers

Best guess permissions.  You would need to post a server log during a library scan.

Yeah, i assume permissions too, but the TV folder is on the same share as the Movie folder. Perms are the same. I'll run a scan and check the logs. Thanks.

So i went through the logs and I'm getting hundreds of the following error:

It's clearly hitting a malformed xml file, but how to tell which one?

... oh, and all my nfo files are formatted the same:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<movie>
  <title>3 Days to Kill</title>
  <originaltitle>3 Days to Kill</originaltitle>
  <sorttitle>3 Days to Kill</sorttitle>
  <set>
  </set>

  <year>2014</year>

...

 

I can't tell if it's throwing an exception on the same file over and over or if it's having issue with every single one.

Can you post a log and Luke or someone may be able to tell you.

You can scratch this. I wiped out all the .nfo files in the system and had emby re-download them. I'm back in business now. Thanks.
