library errors

[DancingMan 1]

I've recently made some changes to my library:

1. Movies are on two drives: one local (M:) and one network (was N:, but I changed it to be accessed via the ip address)
2. Converted movies from mkv to mp4 (after researching, found mp4 was most widely compatible and that's important to me)
3. On each drive, mkv files were in "MKV-Movies" folder (with a subfolder for each movie); now mp4 files are in "Movies" folder (with a subfolder for each movie)

Nothing in my media library configuration (through the webpage) points to either the N drive or the MKV-Movies folders.... everything points to the ip address for the network drive and the Movies folder.  I'm seeing lots of these errors in my logs:

It seems like the library still looks for the old files in the old locations.  The new files in the new locations are in the library and I can watch them, but the library seems to think the old files are there. 

 

Is there any way to clear this information out?

that would be coming from .lnk shortcut files, or boxsets or playlists pointing to old paths.

I don't have any playlists. I believe all of my boxsets are made/managed by the Auto Boxsets plugin which says "Auto Box Sets will keep itself up to date whenever you add or remove movies from your library".  Also, I've never made any shortcuts to the movies.

 

I use Kodi with the Emby for Kodi addon, the Android client, & the web client.  None of the clients show the old information in them; for example, Terminator 2 only shows up once with the correct information.  The only place the old information shows up is in the errors in the log files.

You were right.... U DA MAN!  Sorry I doubted you.  I had been trying to rescan the library and refresh the collections, but that wasn't enough - I found the folder where the collections are kept and just deleted everything and rebuilt them; that seemed to do the trick.

 

Thanks again.
