Library does not scan

[MichkeIV 0]

Hey there,

 

I am setting up my server. But my movies weren't loading. I had not that problem with kodi or plex, but on emby I have.

 

So I choose movie, select path and library scans 0 movies. When I select a mapfolder in the same path he scans that one movie..

 

So nothing to do with permissions.. who can help?

 

Many thanks

HI there, how many emby libraries have you setup? What folder did you add to your movies library?

[MichkeIV 0]

Hi I did set-up 2, one has series and that worked just fine. The other one are movies.

I just toon a test with a folder in the same path. With the 300 collection, is in 1 folder. 

 

Emby scans it and workers fine. The other library is same path but all my movies, emby doesnt scan

Thats the view off library set up

But even then, the library shows the art in front, with nothing from files in

 I really do not understand this...

Try removing the Films library. You can't have one library pointing to A:\ and then another library pointing to something underneath that.

Yes, I did the underneath path for testing after I first started with the A:\\ path.. 

I will delete the A:\\300 Path, but the problem is still that the library does not scan that path.

My path is:

A:\\Movie\Movie Center Home\

How many emby libraries do you have now, and what folder paths are added to each one?

Hi,

 

Now I have 2 libraries. 

Folder path A:\\Movie Center Home (does not scan)

Folder path B:\\Shows Center Home (does scan and is correctly added all)

Can you post a server log.

Please attach the emby server log from the time of the library scan. You can learn how to do that here:

Here is the last logfile, when i was scanning libarery, and he didn't found any movies in A:\\

ok, 

 

this morning i was Testing a new folder in the same Path. I ordend my movies and gave hem just another name :"title (year)" also i think Emby doesn't scan collection folders.

So I have Folders with Marvel Collection, that he doesn't recognize so skips all the movies within. Is there another way or do i just need to order everything over again?

It is usually bad use the root of any drive as hidden system folders/files can stop Emby from scanning the drive.  If you put your media in a parent folder and add that to Emby does it make a difference?
