Hi, if you look at your Collections ID from the library setup menu on Emby server what library type is shown under "Collections"?

[Skyhigh69 7]

sorry I have no idea what your asking for.

[Carlo 4560]

What does it show on your system in the red circle?

[Skyhigh69 7]

You're looking in the Metadata Manger. You need to go to the Server's config page, and look at the Library tab as @cayars shows.

[Skyhigh69 7]

You don't have "edit" from the 3 dot menu to the right?

[Carlo 4560]

OK that is showing as "Collections" type which is correct but your Music library is using "Mixed Content" vs Music type which likely isn't going to be ideal.

Could you run a full library scan from the library menu and see if this removes the duplicates?  If not we will need to manually make a couple of changes, delete the collection library and then rescan to fix it.

[Skyhigh69 7]

no its report or share only

[Skyhigh69 7]

i did re run, no change, and music displays perfect so no sense messing with it.

[Skyhigh69 7]

collections does not have a remove feature like the others?

[Skyhigh69 7]

be nice to have an edit button so I dont have to make 1000 posts lol

 

[Skyhigh69 7]

collection has a edit only button

OT: But mixed content should not be showing media as it does not support audio files.

You can try this

Collections library?!  But suspect a database issue.

That will end you as a spammer, and sure you do not want that, please try to post complete post, not a post every minute or so.

You can now edit your post with time as 10 mins, then you can not.

I was testing something, now "Member" group can edit their post within 10 mins timing from the original post time.

Try this path: Emby\programdata\root\default\Collections and follow Happy's suggestion.

[Skyhigh69 7]

Ok well I found my directory and I just deleted the collections folder, Let you no how I make out after a rescan. My directory is in AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\root\default.

On Windows that path would be similar to this:
C:\Users\carlo\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\root\default

Change carlo above to your username used for Emby.

Delete the Collections folder from that location.
