Thousands of Library's auto created.

[antron12345 0]

This morning i woke up to find that Emby has created thousands of Library's automatically.

 

Attached is an image of what i found this morning.  I have backups for the past 31 days and when i restore them back 1, 2, 10, 15, 20 days it does not change the library count I still see 3202 in the list.

 

How do i get ride of those library's

From the screenshot we can guess what the problem is.. Your photo upload crap!! Yeah load beta... Tooo late for that!!

Sorry that would have been smart to put the version in.

 

Version 4.7.14.0

 

I have been using Emby for years doing photo upload.  This think with thousands of added library's just happened over night.

 

Is there a way to bulk remove them.

I have also tried to remove some of these folder and they will not remove from the GUI library interface.

HI, were you able to get the libraries removed? This shouldn't happen anymore in the upcoming 4.8 server release.

The only way to remove them was to delete them by hand.  It did end up being over 3200 libraries that needed to be removed. The funny thing was that I would remove 1 of the libraries and it would remove anywhere between 30 to 50 libraries at once.  It still took about a hour to clean up.

 

I did have this problem in the past where camera upload libraries would be auto created.

 

I have turned to feature off for now.

 

Any idea why this is happening and will the new version 4.8 fix the camera upload issue as well.

 

Thank you
