itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Hello there, New Emby Premiere member here. I just moved from PLEX since there is some serious trouble with their Samsung Tizen App that has persisted through more than 6 months with subtitles out of sync. So I downloaded the windows client and has added all my media. However, where PLEX seem to load metadata flawlessly for almost ALL my files, Emby doesn't. I've been sitting for a couple of hours to manually update metadata for many files, but I'm about to give up. It takes way too long and besides this should work properly and automatically insert the correct metadata. Here is an example: I have a folder called: Blade.II.2002.1080p.Bluray.x264 and within this folder is a file called hdc-blade2-1080.mkv The Emby server won't insert the correct metadata for this file. Any suggestion to why this fails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Take a look at the naming convention, that emby needs https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Movie%20naming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 So if I understand this correctly even though the folder is correct, it doesn't load metadata properly if the filename doesn't start with the media name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 Is there any way to make it listen to the folder name only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 The problem with that is that a lot of people have one folder that has a lot of movies in it. I use media center master to rename all of mine. How big is your collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 So if I understand this correctly even though the folder is correct, it doesn't load metadata properly if the filename doesn't start with the media name? I don't believe your folder names do match our conventions. If they did, then, if only one video file was inside the folder it wouldn't matter what it was named (could be video.mkv).

Guest asrequested Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Your folder should be, Blade II (2002) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I'd actually like to see the log from this blade ii example, but it's not in the log you posted. do you have that one? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 http://wildflower.dk/serverlog2.txt Is this it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Well it looks like that log is from when you fixed it manually, and that succeeded. What i was hoping to see was the activity from when it was first initially imported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think i may be out of luck to find a log for it. I have a suspicion that the second log is only logging when I manually tried to update the metadata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 We just crossed each other there. Yes, I know what you mean. I'll try to see if there is anything in the log from one of the other titles with same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 And this was done by manually asking it to update the metadata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 In the above example, do you have two layers of folders for the one movie? Note the image path: K:\Movies\The.Wrestler.1080p.BluRay.x264-REFiNED\refined-wrestler-blu1080p\poster.jpg What is the full path to the video file?

itchykill Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 Ah yes, I can see now that there is another folder. Is PLEX using some other smart technique since they always find the metadata on such examples? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
