Online it's listed as only being part of Captain Marvel Collection. Yep custom made collections, which Emby is meant to support!! However it seems to not like them and will always remove the media and either put them back in to the "Listed" collections or just as stand alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4331 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 OK so what happens now if you go the Captain Marvel and add it to a new playlist "Infinity Saga" and then add it again to a new playlist "MCU" ? Does the NFO then show all 3 collections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4331 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 You're talking about library scan not meta-data refresh correct? If library scan, is this reproducible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe so yeah, its the scan that runs every 12 hours by default (not 100% what one that is labelled Scan media library) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4331 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Can you try creating the other 2 collections, verify all 3 are now in the NFO. Then kick off a library scan from the Library Menu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep did that and it will pull it out of my Custom collections, and has randomly coursed 4 new random collections for different films to be created even though I have deleted them in the past.

Carlo 4331 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 You're saying it removed the SET commands from the NFO and removed this movie from the collections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Yep, and also did the same to some other movies lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 I have a feeling either I have a single setting wrong somewhere or the collections option is not working as intended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Just now, morpheus2n2 said: I have a feeling either I have a single setting wrong somewhere or the collections option is not working as intended I think I was half right. Just noticed this option that I have now disabled, but I still don't understand why I am only getting the one NFO File when I have been told there should be 2 Import collection information When enabled, this will import collection information from your enabled metadata readers and downloaders. This may cause unwanted collections to be automatically created. Disabling will prevent future collections from being automatically created, but will not delete existing ones.

morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 21, 2021 Author Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) Yep, didn't work at all, load of my films have been removed from my collections yet again and the NFO's have been updated to reflect this. Why is such a simple thing that I have zero problems with in Plex so much hard work on Emby?!

Carlo 4331 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 We did a remote connection and I believe we have this solved. Made a couple of changes and also removed the XML plugin which may have been causing an issue. @morpheus2n2 will update us tomorrow after his nightly scan runs.

morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Ok, it still keeps removing random films from custom collections and it keeps creating collections even after I have deleted them aswel.

Carlo 4331 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yes it would likely keep importing new one as this option was turned on in the Library (import). Try turning off the import collections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morpheus2n2 9 Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yeah and your turned it back on, and when the scan kicked in last night it created a number of previously deleted collections and removed 3 random films from custom collections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, As been discussed her a few times now and verified by @cayars, the NFO's always seem to be right but Emby is overriding this at random no matter the settings used. It appears not even log files are picking up what's going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
