Jonny67 2 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 After using this plugin I ended up with many collections which was nice. I needed to free up space to add new movies so I deleted a lot of old stuff and added new stuff. After doing this I re-scanned my library but now I could no longer use Collections. Each time I browsed to Collections, Emby froze and I had to restart it via my QNAP NAS. After a few times doing this I realised that something was wrong. So I did the following...3 times with same results... 1. Stop Emby via NAS 2. Start Emby via NAS 3. Enter Emby/Dashboard 4. Go to Plug Ins / Uninstall Auto Box Sets 5. NAS / Stop Emby 6. NAS / Start Emby 7. Emby / LIbrary / Remove Collections 8. NAS / Stop Emby 9. NAS / Start Emby At this point my Collections library has gone and all links to collections have gone. Browsing to all movies and playing them was fine. Collections is empty I then started adding movies to new collections again as if for first time....but...all collection names are still available as a choice but worse of all after only adding 3 movies to one collection ALL my collections appeared again and once I enter said Collections Emby froze again. It's as if Emby has not actually deleted my OLD collections but re-using a faulty cached one. What can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny67 2 Posted May 25, 2018 Author Share Posted May 25, 2018 I was thinking about deleting the collections.xml file (if there is one) to cure this so where exactly is the file. I can SSH into my QNAP so I just need the location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37132 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Each collection has it's own, so deleting a collection would have the same effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny67 2 Posted May 25, 2018 Author Share Posted May 25, 2018 Thanks. I found the folder location just now anyway so I deleted the whole lot. I'm now starting from scratch and NOT using the Auto Box Sets plug-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny67 2 Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 Just to give you an update, I wanted to replicate the issue so I did the following: I removed the Auto box sets plug-in and removed the collections library. I restarted Emby. SSH into my QNAP. I deleted the collections folder. I installed Auto Box sets plug-in. Restarted Emby. Let the plug-in generate the Collections. Emby froze as soon as I clicked on any of the Collections. As this clearly doesn't work for me I removed everything again and setup my Collections manually and all is well.
