Emby is putting every House episode into season

[ramansgdeep 3]

 

So, all the episodes are listed in season 1, which they're not, they have clear file names indicating that and the folder name indicating it too. Why can't I just select/drag-drop/correct when emby makes a mistake like this?

Because your TV Show folder has garbage characters, it literally says "...Season 1..." and parser is acting on it, treating all episodes beneath as belonging to season 1 (as your parent/main TV Show folder is actually "House", not "House (2004) Season 1-8 S01-S08..."). Rename/restructure your folders as recommended and rescan library.

Is there no way to then ignore the "House" (since I can't delete it/change it for organizational reasons) folder as the parent folder and instead treat the "House (2004) Season 1-8 S01-S08..." folder as my main/parent folder for this series' identification?

No, but you might get away with it by moving all Season folders one level up, directly beneath "House" folder (out of "House (2004) Season 1-8 S01-S08..." folder). Give it a shot.

yeah so i couldnt move the files cuz i had to main the structure, so instead i renamed that folder name to "House (2004) (Complete)..." instead which i think fixed it...? Because it looks like this now, and maybe i'm unfamiliar with dashboard's seasons' new look now as instead of this dropdown i remember there being posters listed outside for seasons in a row. It must be just a new thing. thanks nonetheless.
