sross44 233 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Just switched to the stable release of 4.6. Now all of a sudden my recorded shows folder no longer is showing up on the home screen or even on the admin side. For the first time, do we need to create a library for that? I thought that library was auto created once recordings were in the folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 HI, try running a library scan. If that doesn't help then I would check both your user library permissions and then your user home screen settings. Please see if that helps. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I've seen this in 4.6 beta upgrades and each time a FULL library scan has fixed this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Perfect, so if you're coming from 4.5 the update will kick off a library scan, so all you need to do is let that finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sross44 233 Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Still not seeing it. I moved from the beta to the stable version. And it was there in beta. Ran the library scan. Checked permissions. It's like it doesn't exist. However, under live TV the recording point the folder everything is in. Any more suggestions?? Thanks for the help guys!

sross44 233 Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Figured it out. It was a drive mapping issue to the NAS. For whatever reason, when updating to the stable server it didn't recognize any mapped drives I had. So, rebooted the server as well as Emby and boom, everything is seen perfectly by Emby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend using UNC paths instead of mapped drives but this will mean re-doing your library setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the benefit of pointing directly to the drive vs mapped? Just to eliminate what happened? Or another more in depth reason? Just curious your thoughts on this.

Luke 37056 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Windows will disconnect mapped drives when they idle and then Emby Server will not be able to reach them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense. I'll make the change... but I will say this is the first time in using Emby in 2 years or so that it's created an issue, but totally get the reasoning! Thanks guys.
