But would reflect <CollapseSingleItemFolders>false</CollapseSingleItemFolders> if I hit save. All newly recreate libraries are <CollapseSingleItemFolders>true</CollapseSingleItemFolders> even if system is false and new installations have system to true.

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 with collapse = true get for avengers which i guess is correct as the collapse works on the movie TAB - which thinking about it is where it should work so with the options i have enabled then its working correctly for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note system collapse true setting overrides library collapse settings. System has to be false for library options to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2063 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 yes have Avengers folder on Folder Tab now This is not complex at all - LOL @cayars if there is not one already you need to craft a knowledge base article on this before we forget again what option does what / vs server version and when it was created also downsides of changing an option in xml files etc etc Good luck with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4330 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I'm not sure I'd even know how to document this as the age of the install is going to come into play. What exactly would you like to see documented? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly would you like to see documented? Well who knows when/if Luke will actually remove it and when it is removed we will have some angry people as it will force a library rebuid on their systems and or make user upset they don't have this view anymore.

Even more reason to have a document on how it is now with the various options that affect what a user sees and how emby works yes its complex as it took happy and me a few minutes to remember and figure out whats going on etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I honestly don't believe this has anything to do with OP issue as I can reproduce the issue with these season folder names and using proper season folders it is identified properly.

Carlo 4330 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 That's what I was thinking just reading this Happy2Play but didn't test anything so I didn't want to comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) The issue here is from the changes that happened in the Auto detection system (Jellyfin does not have) that applies to Mixed content being used in TV Show content type to allow users to use a nested/complex folder structure. And this system is not locking said series folder as a series folder and moves to the season folder and make it the series folder. Unfortunately when this happens there is no way to correct it beside only using tv naming support document. Now there is no issue using proper season x folders then editing the Display title in UI/metadata. @Luke can confirm in reference to OP, but my tests provide same results as OP, but still don't know naming scheme used.

I use, e.g. Slayers - S01E01 - Pilot.mkv I respect the file naming scheme emby uses but I need to have custom folder names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I've got a decent size library but no anime at all in my collection. I'd like to recreate this and do some testing. Can you tell us: What metadata providers you have enabled for this library. Screen shots would be helpful of the configuration so we get the order correctly. If you've installed any other plugins like the Anime plug that is directly related to metadata Could you open a command prompt and navigate to the TV/Slayers directory as show in the op post TV ├── Slayers ├── 01. Slayers (original) ├── 02. Slayers Next ├── 03. Slayers Try ├── 04. Slayers Revolution ├── 05. Slayers Evolution-R └── Movies Then run "dir /s > dir.txt". That will supply us the folder and file names of all subs. Please upload the dir.txt file and then you can delete that file form the folder. Thanks, Carlo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4330 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 You're now part of the Borg collective and have been assimilated. Kidding aside, is it now working better for you after renaming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
