1996 is missing

[firefox1970 12]

Hello,

I sort my Music and Data by Years. Every Library have Sub Folders with Years. 
Emby shows every Year only 1996 is missing. Even I create the Library new, still the same.

Why ?

LIbrary type ?

Music ? Music Naming

Tv show ? TV Naming

Movies ? Movie Naming

Audiobooks ? Audio Book Naming

Ah now I got what you mean

"Movies"

All other Years show up, only 1996 not. 

Which log File you need ?

[firefox1970 12]

I Found out what the Problem is. At the Folder 1996 I have only one Movie not more.
If I copy 2 more Movies inside this Folder then Emby will show it.

Is there any Setting I can change this ??

No, not at present but it seems your folder layout isn't following our Movie Naming guide for its folder structure.

Would fall under the CollapseVideoFolders/CollapseSingleItemFolders hidden switches.  So the folder is lost with a single item.  

Depending on how old your install is this behavior should have changed on a NEW install.

I think I install Emby the First time 2 or 3 Year ago nd Update it every time.
Is there any fix for this?? To many Video, Fotos and Music on it. It will cost me Weeks to get this all together and reinstall it.

[Happy2Play 9780]

Unfortunately changing these flags is destuctive and cause libraries to rebuild.

You would need to verify the CollapseVideoFolders in the system.xml or the API as you can only verify the CollapseSingleItemFolders per library in the api as the /root/default/libraryfolders options.xml are no longer used and are database only now.

Will there be a Patch to fix this ???

My guess would be no as dev doesn't really want to flip these switches on existing install as it would kill everyone that does not save metadata with media as flipping the switches basically nukes the library and readds it per the adding or removing a folder layer.  But only the devs can truly answer that.

If you were to remove the library and add it back, then you'd get the new behavior.

Per my latest test in 4.8.10.0 is was still dependant on the system.xml also.

So that need changed to false to so libraries can honor there settings.

 

[firefox1970 12]

thx @Happy2PlayYou dont know how much I hate "vi" but I change it from true to false. Also I reboot the EmbyServer but the Folder 1996 is still missing

Regards
Firefox

I really don't follow.  Sure there is misidentification within the folder but personally that is expected per what I named them.  Both flags to false and only one item in 1996 and two in 1997.

[firefox1970 12]

Both flags ??

I only change <CollapseVideoFolders>  to false
