Only issue with the new way is you have to move your People folder do to the creation of metadata folder.  So if you point Metadata to X:\IBN it creates X:\IBN\metadata\People.

Since a metadata folder is created no matter where you point it to you have to move all your previous IBN info into metadata.

Luke - is it? It isn't on my server, that field is blank and called "Metadata path".

 

I have a custom IBN folder with Studio images, year images, genre images etc, etc that was all setup 3-4 years ago on a folder on my NAS and I assumed that Emby was still using it. Are you saying that it is redundant?

He is saying that you need to point the "Metadata Path" to your old IBN location if you want to use those things.

 

Also know that People are stored here too so, you may want to move the People folder from the default metadata path under the server folder to your IBN folder first.

EBR - OK, thanks. Any reason why that field was blank and the information wasn't carried over from the old IBN folder field? I also have to say that the wording of "Metadata path" gives the impression that ALL metadata will be stored here.

Metadata is stored there if you don't have the option to store it with your media selected.
