Hi, 

Some of my libraries are added but not viewable as regular viewing. The content is under "Folders" instead (se attachement) 

Any idea why and how to fix it?

Hi, 

I have 6 libraries total. The folder is directly to the folder containing the content. Other libraries that has the same structure works without any issues like this.

Paths are: /mnt/sc4/Movies/Movies-4K , /mnt/sc4/Movies/Movies , /mnt/sc4/TV/TV etc

Which libraries are coming up empty?

Movies-4K & Movies-Kids - Content is there but only when I select "folders" as the screen in the first post shows

Do those library items appear in the library that displays properly?  It does sound like a parent folder library issue.

Its displays properly if I press "Folders". But the setup in my gdrive is:

Right but you are saying Movies\Movies appear properly, so my question is do those movies from say Movies-4K appear there also?

This is how the Movies-4K looks in my server after I pressed "Folders":

But that is not the question.  Do you see these library items that only show in folder view in your Movies\Movies library?

Yes! Movies from the Movies/Movies library is viewed with no issues 

EDIT: In the Movies/Movies library under "Folders" i see all folders

That means the paths you have provided can not be correct as Movies\Movies has to be a parent folder with the other two being children\subfolders.

Can you show exactly the folder path provided for exact library.

Misread, but that still is not the question I asked.

I understand that, but TV is not having the same issue.

Okay so this image shows you can not create libraries that are subfolder of any other library.  Emby will not allow it.  The exact same will apply to TV assuming you are building libraries the same.

You would have to add all these folder specificly to Movies for it to work.

TV has the same structure as you can see above in the paths list. But this does not happen with the TV libraries which is why i'm confused.

It is probably easier for you to provide a screenshot of Dashboard-Library.  But Emby will not allow a subfolder library of any parent library.

This image proves the library path is /mnt/sc4/Movies not /mnt/sc4/Movies/Movies as it lists all subfolder libraries.

Damn, i'm stupid! That of course fixed the issue.

Sorry for all the un-needed help here due to my lack of viewing that mistake! 

Thanks!
