Hello,
it is supported that the video and most of the images have the name like: 55 Tage in Peking (1963) [tmdbid=27759].mkv
But why this is not working for the backdrop?
I tried to rename it to "55 Tage in Peking (1963) [tmdbid=27759]-fanart.jpg"
and the result is in the webfrontend that it is displayed twice if the configuration. But in the normal movie view it is ok.
Same result if there are more than one backdrop images present like *-fanart1, *-fanart2 ect.
It would be nice and more consequent to have the same format for backdrops as well

HI, sorry, what exactly is the problem? Just the label in the image editor?

Posted

hi,

not a realy problem. The label is only cosmetic. But here it is displayed twice and the file is only present once.
if you have more than one backdrops like *-fanart2, *-fanart3 ect. they are not visible twice, only the label is not correct (think to less space here to show all)

Maybe you two of the same image? Try deleting the second one.

on the file system is only one file is present. if i delete it one of this image in emby, this file is deleted too and by the next library scan the backdrop is not there anymore.

This was an issue in an old version of Emby, IIRC.

that it was displayed twice or when you delete it? i have the acutal version installed

Try removing the whole folder out of your library, then running a scan of all libraries to clean out the database, and then adding it back.

no effect, same result

What exactly did you do?

removed the video from the filesystem, full scan in emby and put the video back and did a rescan again. it's still visible twice

What exactly did you do to start a full scan?

Posted

clicked on "scheduled tasks" --> "scan media library"

Posted

Can you please show the contents of the movie folder? 

Posted

OK I'm not sure what the issue is but I would suggest using the web interface to delete the second image.

Posted

thats not working, because then the file is deleted too

Posted

Do both image entries go away after that?

Posted

in image editor only the second one is delete and the first one is still presen. after a library scan the first one is also deleted.

Posted

OK and then after that what happens if you add a new image?

Posted

1. delete the 2. image --> file is deleted too --> in image editor only one image is present then.

2. add a new image --> file is added as fanart1.jpg --> in image editor the old image and the new image is present.

3. after a full scan --> only fanart1.jpg is present

And then for this video, is it fine going forward after that?

hmmm, the question is still the same. 
why is it working with all the other images but not for backdrop? Want to have it all in the same naming convention. 

image.jpeg.bbd45e40bdbc53a0848c30024b2e467b.jpeg


to point 2: here it should be fanart.jpg then and not fanart1.jpg because the file is deleted completely. Think it is because the other image is still in the database.
at the end it is only cosmetic in the image editor, but more consequent that all images can have the same naming convention.

then it would looks like this in the filesystem:

image.jpeg.e2500f9799cae23d3ea8e36c76de47c7.jpeg

Correct, yes. I think crusher1 is right. This was a defect several versions of the server ago. It was corrected at the time so that it wouldn't happen again, but duplicates may have been created and could still be hanging around.

duplicates from what? Emby was installed completley new in docker
