Happy2Play 8307 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Yes there is a known issue as TMDB is doing maintenance and deleting a lot of images. So that breaks the database image url links you already have. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/85934-corrupte-images/ See post 21 in other topic Edited May 18, 2020 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckr1958 2 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 ok, thanks... not sure how to install the plugin since it is not in a catalog. I'd try it out. @@chuckr1958 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggs 300 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 TMDB Corrupt Image Fix Plugin for Windows 10 Linux please!!! What is not right, in my opinion is that in theory the images once uploaded by Emby remain local, but apparently that was not the case, or that is what this problem revealed. In my case, the actors were already loaded, they simply disappeared from one day to the next. Like everyone, if I don't do it one by one by hand, there is no way to do it. At least I don't know, and my server installation is inside a docker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggs 300 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Items require a Refresh w/replace images. No way Jose, I have all my content with the posters and the other images that I want. I don't need new random images. All my files are inside a folder and then, the images, subs, lyrics or whatever inside each folder Ex. 1 folder for each movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggs 300 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Totally different then what I was showing as those are Suggested items that are not in your library. Okay. Lets see if I understand. So,,, if I refresh the library and check to replace all images, will it respect those that already exist? (posters, fanarts, clearlogos, etc.) Or ... I misunderstood and what you indicate is for one actor at a time? Because I substitute images but in each actor separately, not in the entire library. I don't want to have to edit my posters and backdrops ever again, there are 3 thousand movies I have, my friend. I can do the refresh to every library, but i need to be sure. Thnaks in advance.

No as you are telling it to replace them. Refreshing the media item has sort of nothing to do with the people as they are a secondary task during item import. So Refreshing the media has no effect on people, you have to manually refresh the person. I personally just went into the database and nuked all people tmdb url images. It will rebuild upon item/person entry. Post 22 is in reference to Suggested items, not library items. Edited May 18, 2020 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wakeboarder141 29 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I have noticed lately that many of my actor images are gray boxes inside of Movies/TV Shows and show a broken image placeholder inside the actor info. I have tried all of the rescanning that I know how to do, including selecting "Replace all metadata" without effect. I am able to manually go into those actors and search for images, which fixes them, but that is going to take forever to do every missing actor manually. Is there a way to replace the broken images in batch form? I will attach screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a little difficult as you have to use other programs like WinSCP to navigate the file system. But you can look at the Dashboard to get the general location you need to look as it the plugin folder is within your programdata folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wakeboarder141 29 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Well, I located the root folders and found the plugin folder with WinSCP, but it won't allow me to copy the DLL file to the folder. I just get "Access Denied" each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to get the DLL to copy into /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/var/plugins, but even after restarting the Emby Server, I don't have this plugin listed. That appears to be the correct plugin location as I can see other plugins in there, but it isn't working for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginjaninja 537 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 FYI this does not only affect people. Primary and Backdrop were deleted on TMDB. Items require a Refresh w/replace images. thanks could you share the database filter conditions to weedle out the movie posters like you did for people.

The plugin did not show up on the Emby dashboard after copying the DLL file to the plugin directory. I had just done the same thing with the Statistics plugin DLL, and it worked fine.

wakeboarder141 29 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Since the plugin doesn't seem to work on Synology, is there an alternative method? Would deleting the entire library and rebuilding it fix the issue, or will it still be there when done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember all of your userdata is in that database also, but if you are a Premiere user you can backup and restore that data with the Server Configuration Backup plugin. Or if you want to do a manual edit of the database yourself. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/85812-artistsactors-images-disappeared-randomly/?p=880009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not deleting the rows, you are clearing the Images column for the items that contain TMDB urls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you fore the clarification. Now the newest, and hopefully my last issue is that I can't get the edited db to copy back through WinSCP. It says access is denied when it tries to overwrite.

neik 837 Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Is Emby still running while you do that? I would imagine Emby blocks write access to the DB to prevent changes while it's running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
