Not all files in the folder pick up by Emby

Hi,

 

Not all files are picked up by Emby. I have tried rescan and re adding the library with no success.

Are these files in a folder that specifies the season number (using 1 if the only season)?

If not, then trying moving them to a season folder, or changing the Enn in each name to S01Enn.  Without a clear definition of the season number Emby is liable to try other numbers it can see, such as 2021 in this case.

The files are in the root of the folder for the series. I understand that it might pick up 20 as season, but only 1 file is detected and the rest are disregarded.

They are most likely multi-versioned, as per your naming convention - if you go to episode detail screen, you'll see a dropdown there. As @pwhodges suggested, either put all files in season folder or rename episodes with S/E identifier.

Yes it the parser trying to determine what this is supposed to mean.

What is the Season and episode number?

But as mentioned above it looks like 2021 is used as S20E21 and everything is multi-versioned into that one episode.

Only 1 file is picked up and there is no other season to it. I will just have to rename the files for this.

@mclak But when you enter season 20 and click on episode 21 you should see a version drop-down showing every file.  Or scroll to the bottom or the episode details page and see them versioned.  As your images show Emby used 2021 as Season and Episode as that is in that rogue naming scheme.

Interestingly, it works for this folder. Is it due to "S01E01"?

Apologies, I get it now. 😁

Emby tries but can't interpret ever naming scheme.  Always best to try and follow the KB.
