why Title always change ? cant help me please

[angellmark 1]

I am very tired of Emby's behavior, every time I change the text title of the movie, Emby always changes it and it happens continuously, and I have changed the poster several times, Emby changes it himself with a clip of the movie content, what is the solution, why is Emby like this now?

Hi, what are the contents of the movie folder on the file system?

Hi.
Some advices : 
 1 : follow the naming Rules here : https://emby.media/support/articles/Movie-Naming.html
 2 : include "ID Tags" in filename, it ensures correct identification 
 3 : edit your .mkv (I don't know if it is the same for .mp4 files) with a tool such as "MKVToolNix". Change the headers to have the Video track name to an empty string or the hearder removed.

For instance : suggested naming for your files : 

Love Lies - (2016) - [tmdbid=385261] - 720p.mp4
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/385261
If it is the correct movie, instead, change the tmdbid number accordingly.

The Shadow Strays - (2024) - [tmdbid=1151949] - 720p.mkv
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1151949-the-shadow-strays

Same procedure here...

 

And last, but not least : 
4 - create a folder for each movie, it ensure that if you add later a second version/edition of the same movie, this movie doesn't show in "newly added".
ie : Create a forlder named : The Shadow Strays - (2024) - [tmdbid=1151949]
Place the file inside the forlder.

All these advices keeps your library well organized.

Have a nice day.
