schmitty 66 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Hello, I would like some clarification please. I currently have three tv and two movie libraries setup. I have a local and cloud library for tv and movies, and I set up a third tv library which merges the local and cloud tv libraries, which I only access at the moment for testing. The idea was to, while I am in the process of moving media across to the cloud have one library which merges the two together... for some reason though, it doesn't seem to work that way. It is showing duplicate series... one from local and one from cloud, instead of merging the two. Edited March 22, 2019 by schmitty
Luke 40087 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Make sure to turn on the series grouping feature for that library, as well as making sure the series have the same tvdb & imdb id's.
Carlo 4552 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 I would like some clarification please. I currently have three tv and two movie libraries setup. I have a local and cloud library for tv and movies, and I set up a third tv library which merges the local and cloud tv libraries, You can't do this. You have media that belongs to 2 different libraries and this isn't supported. All media needs to belong to ONLY 1 LIBRARY. So you either need to have the 2 different libraries on the 1 merged library but not the combination of the two.
schmitty 66 Posted March 23, 2019 Author Posted March 23, 2019 So you either need to have the 2 different libraries on the 1 merged library but not the combination of the two. I don't follow. I thought I did have it set up the way you suggested.
schmitty 66 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 Why would it be showing duplicated series then, if imbd and tvdb id's are the same, and the library is set up correctly?
schmitty 66 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 Using both local and cloud file and network paths, and having the series grouping feature enabled
ebr 15667 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Cayars is correct. Grouping only works within the same library.
schmitty 66 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Posted March 26, 2019 Wouldn't that mean this particular library should actually merge duplicate series, with the way I have it configured?
ebr 15667 Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 The fact one of the paths is in the cloud should be irrelevant to Emby because you've mounted it in a way that we just see it as a location. Have you verified the IDs are actually identical? Can we see the two Emby items in the metadata manager that shows their paths and the IDs so maybe we can spot something? Thanks.
ebr 15667 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 In the library Screen Shot 2019-03-28 at 18.53.32.png Exactly where is that? We cannot see any context there. Thanks.
schmitty 66 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 It is the DizzleFlix Series1 library, which is the TV series library that merges the local and cloud libraries.
Luke 40087 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Sorry i mean in the one next to the filter button. thanks.
Luke 40087 Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 That's quite strange. How exactly did you move the data folder?
schmitty 66 Posted April 3, 2019 Author Posted April 3, 2019 (edited) I used sudo cp -Rv /var/lib/emby /srv/.config/emby then deleted metadata and cache directories, as they are on separate volumes. I then changed EMBY_DATA=/var/lib/emby to EMBY_DATA=/srv/.config/emby in /etc/emby-server.conf Edited April 3, 2019 by schmitty
