Pommes 8 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 Should i try to remove all three libraries and re add the home video one? Btw if i use the remove button in the library settings, will it only get removed from emby or my video files deleted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only an idea, is it possible that emby "remembers" the season sorting from the other libraries? Remove all 3 libraries. Create a brand new library based on Home video and photos. Scan How does it look now? Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommes 8 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) With the remove library button? But do my video files get deleted then or just in emby Edited September 1, 2020 by Pommes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4328 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Yes with the remove library option. No, it will not delete your media but feel free to move the content first if that would make you feel better. Part of your problem is that a path can only be used ONE TIME for ONE LIBRARY. If you add that path to multiple libraries you get goofy results. So by removing all 3 libraries and setting it back up fresh with Home Videos and Photos this should be the format you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommes 8 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 How long should removing take? Removed the first library 4 mins ago but it is still showing up (refreshed page already) about 23 000 videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4328 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Can take a few minutes. It basically has to remove 23K entries from the database. Just let it do it's thing and don't interrupt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4328 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I've got something similar setup but it uses the podcast plugin to bring them into Emby. I didn't want a full library of the videos since they are available on Youtube. But I use an RSS feed to keep the recent playlist up to date with new releases for a few channels.

Pommes 8 Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 k i startet with this yt backup quite a while ago, because some of my favorite channels got striked/deleted because of copyright (mainly music videos, like game edits, Mm, or remixes and nightcore) and i still wanted to watch them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you had added the same directory three times with different library types. Note that if any directory is in more than one library this is breaking Emby's rules, and unexpected behaviour will happen. Diagnosis might have been quicker if you had made only one library at a time, or used separate copies of the original to test different types. Anyway, I'm pleased you're sorted now.
