Tekdawg Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Greetings All Hope this is not a duplicate post. I have an issue where all the movies are not showing up "My Media" library. I have ran scan several times with no luck. I setup on a different computer with the same issue. It seems to be the same files that are being displayed. Any thoughts?

Luke Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Hi there, can you please discuss an example? thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekdawg Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Hi I have a folder where all my movies are stored. When I set up the Emby server and add a Media Library I noticed that not all the movies are being displayed in "My Media" movie library. Say I have 100 movies but only 75 show up were I can click to play them. I have even try creating its own nfo file with art work but still will not display as a movie to watch in the library. Hope this helps as I really like this interface. I used to use Kodi and when looking for some add-ins I found yours but have since switched your web interface only.

ebr Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Hi. Exactly how did you setup the library? What content type did you give it? How are your files named and what are their formats? Do they adhere to our standards? Movie naming Do you have any collections defined? Have you turned on the option to combine movies into collections? What about parental controls? Did you define any? If you search for one of the "missing" items, does it find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 There are a lot of fixes related to this in the upcoming 3.6 server release, so assuming you're on 3.5 it will probably be resolved then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution ebr Posted January 5, 2019 Solution Share Posted January 5, 2019 Also, pay particular attention to the naming conventions for multi-part and multi-version items. What may be happening here is that some of your items are being interpreted as one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekdawg Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 What content type did you give it? Movies How are your files named and what are their formats? movie name.avi or movie name.mp4. A couple of the movies I noticed so far seem to .mp4 type. Do they adhere to our standards? Yes Do you have any collections defined? No, but I have since starting setting them up which is how I found more than one was missing. What about parental controls? Did you define any? Not using If you search for one of the "missing" items, does it find it? Does not find it, only the one I already see. Also, pay particular attention to the naming conventions for multi-part and multi-version items. I have the Star Wars Saga using the names: Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace.mp4 Star Wars Episode II Attack Of The Clones.mp4 Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith.mp4 Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope.mp4 Star Wars Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.mp4 - not showing up Star Wars Episode VI Return Of The Jedi.mp4 - not showing up Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens.mp4 - not showing up Star Wars Episode VIII The Last Jedi.mp4 This is the same for other collections.

Tekdawg Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Greeting Support I found a resolution. I am working on the the movie collection: "The Hunger Games". The first two movies show up fine but... the last two Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2 are the issue If I have all four movies in the "Movie" folder only Part 1 will be displayed. If I take out Part 1 then Part 2 will be displayed. Thinking there is an issue with character length I shortened them and removed all pic's & nfo files. When I did a manual scan where it found both movies files but because I shortened them it could not determine the movies, i had to manually edit the metadata ids and add the pics. Here is what the names are. Original names: The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 1 The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 2 New Name that works Hunger Games Mockingjay1 Hunger Games Mockingjay2 So looks like your app has a limit on the characters length it can read. Thank you all the fast support. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Actually, these are our naming conventions for multi-part media: The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 1 The Hunger Games Mockingjay - Part 2 So i think what actually happened is it grouped them together.

Thank you all the fast support. Rick No, that's not the problem. EBR highlighted the problem. Those movies were tripping the multi-part movie scanner so were treated as one item. There are a lot of different ways to organize your media that will work. The naming wiki goes over them. That said, there is a best option. I'm defining best as producing the absolute fewest naming issues. That is to put each movie in its own folder and name it and the folder exactly as your primary metadata provider labels it. For example, I'm in the US and my primary provider is themoviedb. Based on that the movie Conan the Barbarian should be named \\movieshare\Conan the Barbarian (1982)\Conan the Barbarian (1982).mkv. That exactly matches what TMDB calls it. Using this naming convention I have literally never had a movie recognition issue outside of my own typos.

rkirchhof Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) I'm missing TV Shows and Movies. I've upgrade to Version 3.6.0.84 beta hoping it would correct the problem. I'm missing 9 out of 61 in TV Shows. The list is attached as well as the log and the directory listing from DOS. This has been going on for awhile, I've been using Plex to watch the shows and movies that won't show up in EMBY. BTW Plex has never failed to list all shows and movies.

rkirchhof Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Yes, I know that are missing BC I can see them in the file system, but they are not displayed in the library.

Happy2Play Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Any other idea's? Is there any way to force it or add it manually? What program creates your metadata? Emby does not create series or Movie xml files any more and requires a plugin to read them. example from Magnum P.I 01/07/2019 09:37 AM 2,280 series.xml 01/07/2019 09:37 AM 2,053 tvshow.nfo Can you zip those two metadata files and post.

rkirchhof Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 The metadata must come from Sonarr Ver. 2.0.0.5252. I suppose I could turn it off if Emby doesn't need or use it. Zip file you requested. Magnum P.I.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn't look right as Emby currently does not support episodes outside of Show folders. But none of your other text files appear to show this structure, "G:\TV Shows\Les.Miserables.2018.S01E01.INTERNAL.REPACK.1080p.HDTV.x264-FaiLED\les.miserables.2018.s01e01.internal.repack.1080p.hdtv.x264-failed.mkv" So can you show a screenshot of the folder structure for a specific series that is missing. Does G:\TV Shows only contain Show folders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
