NemesisZeRo 7 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I found a strange thing in my metadata! A movie called hotel Transylvania showed a strange location, no filename was there ( see the pic) This has happened before, that the metadata show strange things, once it skipped a.. oh.. no.. it did this before, I just realised it. Well back to the issue, as you can see on the screenshot it points to the main directory. Well, since this was a faulty entry, I chose to remove the media. Then suddenly I saw my CPU go up to 70% so I realized that something was wrong. It was pure luck that I had the movie directory open and saw the files disappearing, I killed the server fast as I could! Now, I know that this is a 'free' software, and I've changed my mind, I'm not buying it anymore. This was my third installation of the software, on 2 different computers, and All Of them had issues with the metadata (;the previous installations was removed as final solution since it wouldn't work correctly ) I should not complain, but at this moment I'm so @($+¥{€=€℅%£`}[©€{¢=#( Somehow, the server sometimes adds a directory as a movie instead of a directory.. I'm just so tired of this sh... Well, I'll guess this post will be deleted, since there is no apparently fault on the software. Oh, btw, in the Swedish translation, in the advanced page, there are some confusion about the https and http ports, according to that page there are only https available for local connections and http for remote. Well, now I got work ahead.. now i must find what movies it deleted, where and if I still have them somewhere..[emoji35] Skickat från min SM-J500FN via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37096 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Emby does not delete anything without user intervention, sorry. If you can provide a server log from that timeframe we can offer me detail. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can provide a server log from that timeframe we can offer me detail. Thanks.I'll check for logs.But you can agree that if you are looking at the first screenshot, it treated the dir as a movie, and I have no idea why.. Here are the today's logs It happened between log 12 & 13, around 1550-1600 http://Dropbox.gr1.se/log11.txt http://Dropbox.gr1.se/log12.txt http://Dropbox.gr1.se/log13.txt http://Dropbox.gr1.se/log14.txt Edited November 19, 2016 by NemesisZeRo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37096 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Ok so in this case it did what you asked for, but I think we should update the delete confirmation to indicate some of the exact files that will be deleted. Deleting is not the right way to go about correcting the display issue, so let's look at that. Can you supply more screenshots about what you're seeing that looks off? Thanks.

NemesisZeRo 7 Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 Well I shut down everything for a recovery session. But as u can see in the pic 1 I have selected a movie, but the path only shows a directory, almost like it forgot to add the name of the movie-file..

NemesisZeRo 7 Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Sorry, don't have any more screenshots, the best I can do is to zip the server to a file if you want..

NemesisZeRo 7 Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 A follow-up question. Now I've recovered almost all movies. Last time I closed the server when it started to delete the files.. What happens now when I activates it, will it resume the deletion?
