I have bunch of web movies that I have created a list who is them each of them seperately with another a program (MetaX) and when I add these to Emby they get cut up. Example Tony (1), Tony (2). They land up be listed as:

Tony

Job: actor

Role : 1

Tony

Job: actor

Role: 2

How do I name the actors in order for their name to stay as Tony (1), Tony (2)   

Thanks

Hi, how did you get the data imported into emby server?

I used a program called MetaX where I can Batch edit files and add the same name in 1 shot. This was does over the years. So redoing them now would be a huge job.

Edit what files exactly?

they are video files, mainly home movies and ads where my son/grandaughter starred in that were done over the years. The setup in them did work fine along time ago with emby.

I have decided to edit the files by removing  ( , ) & [ , ] in order to have them accepted, by the current emby format. So we can close this discusion.

OK if you can provide screenshots and sample data then I can probably give a better answer. Thanks.

The metadata was imported by *.nfo files. The nfo files were created with "MetaX" software program. As you can see Jason (1) is now listed as;
