Crestj 67 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I needed to rerip some BluRays to a better quality so removed the MKV from the movie folder. Unfortunately Emby picked up that the only "video" in the folder now was the downloaded trailer. (<moviename>-trailer.mp4) Now it's spamming "new" movies based on these trailers! <moviename>-trailer-trailer-trailer-trailer-trailer-trailer-trailer-trailer and so on! Easy to clear up (search for -trailer in Emby and delete) but wondered if there is a way to stop this happening should I do this again in the future?

Solution ebr 14857 Posted March 11, 2019 Solution Share Posted March 11, 2019 Don't delete the main video until the replacement is ready...? Or, drop a .ignore file in there when you do. Emby did what it was supposed to - there were videos there so it ingested them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Just to be clear, dropping an .ignore file in the folder stops Emby looking in there completely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
