Something broke in 4.6.x.x I agree that one episode can not be part of more than one season. It doesn't make sense, and is incorrect. What are you telling Emby when you use nfo metadata to say an episode is in season 2, and folder naming metadata to say the same episode is in season 1?

No, your metadata is confused, regardless of what Emby version you run. You should correct it to represent exactly what you want and stop sending Emby conflicting information. Quote Its S02E01, but resides in Season 1 Folder. Quote The actual video file, S02E01 is in Season 1 folder, this does not change.

This is easily replicable, you can test it yourself if you do not believe me. Happy already tested it and confirmed 4.5.4.0 works differently than 4.6.x.x. Please do not speculate, do the test and let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) We are not confused. I was going to post your own NFO back to show it here but you've removed them. Lucky I quoted parts of it here: This after you told us you don't use tvdb. That it's part of Season one. But here is what your NFO said: <uniqueid default="true" type="tvdb">86075</uniqueid> <season>2</season> <episode>1</episode> <displayseason>-1</displayseason> <displayepisode>-1</displayepisode> So you're telling Emby what the tvdb entry is. You're telling Emby to display this in Season 2 as Episode 1 but also giving other BAD data for season/episode right in the NFO file itself. This file was also name S02E01 but yet was in Season 1 folder. Your giving so much contradictory information it's amazing Emby could even display this show.

Please do not speculate, do the test and let me know. Your metadata is wrong. You should correct it. As you've agreed, a single episode can't be part of two different seasons. How Emby reacts to you telling it one episode is a part of two different seasons is irrelevant. Your metadata is wrong. You should correct it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your NFO metadata, and the filename (which is metadata) both say the file belongs in Season 2. You however have placed the file in a Season 1 folder. "Wrong" is perhaps the wrong word - but there is a mismatch between the metadata and file location, that had been explained since page 1 of this thread If you want the episodes to appear in a single place then the metadata needs to match - If you want those episodes in Season 1, then edit the metadata (NFO and Filename to reflect that), either that or move them to the correct Season 2 folder. 8 minutes ago, cayars said: But here is what your NFO said: <uniqueid default="true" type="tvdb">86075</uniqueid> <season>2</season> <episode>1</episode> <displayseason>-1</displayseason> <displayepisode>-1</displayepisode> So you're telling Emby what the tvdb entry is.

So, in the end 4.6.x.x needs a fix. No your library is the only thing that needs to be fixed. If your metadata and file/folder structure don't match then Emby can only guess - in 4.5.4.0 it guessed a certain way, but in 4.6.x.x it has been changed (likely to support the move to greater Metadata reliance as already mentioned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
