Can someone tell me where to go on the server to turn on the missing episodes for TV shows?   I have done multiple searches and cant seem to locate where to go to turn it on.  IT appears to have been shut off a few months ago.

Thanks

Hi, edit your TV Show library and turn on advanced up top.  Here is the setting:

Inside your Library settings, enable "Show advanced settings", scroll down, tick "Display missing episodes within seasons".

That looks like a Movie or Mixed type library. You need a TV Shows type one.

Yes, what @GrimReaper76 said.  What library type is this?

thanks everyone for catching it, i'll change them from Mixed to tv shows

You don't need to create a new library but can change the existing library type.  Please follow this guide to make this easy change:

reviving the topic.

The 'show missing episodes' is not working for me.

I moved my media collection to a different nas, and had Emby rebuild from scratch.  On my previous nas, the function worked great and I used it a lot.  Now, although having enabled the function, I don't get to see missing episodes.

As there are 650+ shows in my tv collection, does my database need more time to get this done?  or am I missing something?

PS: I also really miss the "status Continuing/ended' in the filter options

There are two options one in library and the other in User-Display.

Library option will import into database (tvdb metadata required)

User option will then show the database info if enabled.

Do you have both enabled?

Thanks!  This solved it.  I didn't  have the user option enabled.  My fault.

hi there,

sorry to revive, but the missing episodes option is gone.
I already checked the library type: it is tv shows.

Even a new test-library won't show up the option.

Im running latest beta 4.8.0.65

This is about missing episodes, not specials positioning...

"Display missing episodes within season" is definitely missing in February 2024. The content type is set to 'TV shows'.

Can you please assist?

Hi, have you checked out the new context menu option on a series to view missing episodes?

I have the same question, and am aware of the new context menu.
Are you saying you removed the option to show all episodes in the regular view, which is something I would still definitely like to have?

@LukeOh wow, I just noticed today that the Upcoming and Missing episodes were removed from from within the episodes lists. 
I think every user liked that feature. I would like to have it back. The current context menu is simply a bad decision! I prefer the visual version rather than going through a lot of steps to see the contextual menu.

Please roll this back with the next update. 😭

This is a bad User Experience right there. Why would you move those in a contextual menu?

Having the missing and upcoming episodes right in the list, is a good User Experience. 
Please roll these back!

I think a lot of users will agree with this. 👆
