OK yes with 4.7 we no longer combine on just a and b because that can lead to false positives where things get combined that shouldn't.

You'll need to use an explicit method to name them as multi-part:

So for example:

Knocked Up (2009)-part1.avi
Knocked Up (2009)-part2.avi
Knocked Up (2009)-pt1.avi
Knocked Up (2009)-pt2.avi
Knocked Up (2009)-pta.avi
Knocked Up (2009)-ptb.avi

etc.

Hi Luke, I guess something else has changed in emby so I have a different problem now with multi movies folders.

The movies show in the library but the cover is blank. Once I click on the blank cover it goes to the movie details, it it shows the metadata as is shuld, and the next part of the movie as an additional link below, with the right cover. Clicked on both files they both play correctly.

So the only problem is the cover not showing for all of my movies that are split across multiple files.

Hi Luke,

I attached the server log file.

Practical example

Folder name: 

• 7.Days.In.Havana (2012)

Files in the folder:

• 7daysinhavana-part1.avi
• 7daysinhavana-part2.avi
• backdrop.jpg
• fanart.jpg
• folder.jpg
• movie.xml
• poster.jpg

Screenshots of how the lack of cover looks attached

I think this should be improved in the upcoming 4.8 server release. Thanks.
