Thats Illogical don't you think? Do to the fact you are not appling required metadata to the new database columns that use displayseason and displayepisode. Provide correct information and it will work. Where previous database did not have these columns, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emby Database ie the library.db. Since the database has expanded column your way will no longer work. ie you have to correct your incorrect metadata or stay in the past.

The behaviour of 4.5 with unsupported input suited you; the behaviour of 4.6 with unsupported input does not suit you. What you want was never supported, and now you see what that means. Is finding things using the TVDB seasons so hard? If, for instance, what you are missing is the year, or a story arc name, it is not a big job to edit the season metadata to add those to the title.

The way i see it, mkv video file should always belong to the folder it resides. 4.5.4.0 limits the mkv to that folder. In 4.6, you put S02E05 mkv file inside Season 9 folder, it shows in Season 2 and Season 9 in emby. Thats Illogical don't you think? No, you told Emby this episode is in Season 2 and 9. Why wouldn't it show the episode where you told it to? But more importantly, why are you telling Emby that one episode appears in two seasons? You've already agreed that's impossible. And this is *why* I suggested a logical grouping feature independent of seasons that would allow you to have exactly what you want, fully supported by the software. But that made you mad too.

Happy2Play 8356 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 All that has to happen is correct the <displayseason> and <displayepisode>. But I can say I did have one upgraded database I had to rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a fact though, try it, it will show in both season 2 and season 9 in emby 4.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwhodges 1538 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 We know it behaves as you describe - no one's disputing that; however, the input you are giving it is unsupported, and that's all there is to it. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, Emby is now doing exactly what you told it to do, but you're still complaining. And it's still 'broken' because what you're telling it to do is a logical impossibility.

Paul You know from 3.5.2, I've used this "unsupported feature". This "unsupported feature" was the key to make me swap from plex to emby. For 2 whole years, this "unsupported feature" didn't break anyone's library nor did it affect anyone. So why did they decide to change this "unsupported feature" when it didn't do anything wrong in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
