Server not adding new folder movies to library

[BenchZowner 0]

I just bought a new HDD to add to my server for movie storage purposes.
As I did with my previous disk additions, I created a Movies folder on the new disk ( T:\Movies ) and copied new movies inside that folder, with my usual folder and file naming ( T:\Movies\Movie Name\Movie Name.mkv ).

After adding the folder to the "Movies" library folder list, it seems to be scanning for new files... finishes, and then, there's no new movies in the library.

Attaching log file from the period of adding folder with the new files.

Hi there, can you please attach the complete emby server log? How many emby libraries have you created, and what folder paths did you add to each one?

Hello!

I'm attaching the full log as requested.

The local time when I added the folder to the library is approx. 2:07am.

I have the following libraries with the following paths (all are on the same PC as the server, they're all local storage not network storage):

Are you saying these items are not in your library?  But may need to explain this " there's no new movies in the library."

Yeap, pretty sure I'm not seeing any of the movies from T:\Movies in my library as you can see in the following screenshots (taken just now, a good 6 hours after adding them and performing a scan)

Good catch on "W:\Documentary Series", I have moved that folder to Y:\... and forgot to remove the folder from the library. The same applies for F:\Movies.

Removing both now, but pretty sure that has nothing to do with my T:\Movies issue though

[BenchZowner 0]

oh, f* me.
After removing the two non-existing folders, it has now added the T:\Movies to the library

Pretty sure I had those missing folders there for months, and I have been successfully adding new movies to the library.
Something changed with the latest server version ?

Hi @BenchZowner yes I see the problem and it's related to missing library folders. We'll get this corrected for the next release of the server. Thanks !
