Music videos: Library remains empty

[Heini 5]

After creating a video library, I believe I have done everything I can to play the videos. Unfortunately, the library remains empty. Are there any rules for file formats?

Most video formats can be handled.  Have you named your video files according to Emby's recommendations?

Hi, is this the first library you’ve added to your Emby server? Has the library scan that was started after doing that completed?

pwhodges gave the hint that the designations have to follow certain guidelines - I remember that now too.
I'll take a look and get back to you if necessary.

My first library was created for music files - works fine; this for videos is the second library.

What folder paths did you add to each library?

K:\Musik\Alben\

At the moment I am in the process of renaming the films for the second library according to the requirements.
The directory will be L:\Movies\G\ and more letters for the corresponding movie names.

The movie library is now working; thanks for the help.
