Missing Movies

[FlsPrpht 0]

No parental controls.  

 

I did check my media files and they play via Windows just fine.

Update:  I moved my "The Dark Knight" folder up one level to "F:\Actions\The Dark Knight" and the system immediately found them.  Very odd.

@@FlsPrpht, where was it before?

That is odd since there shouldn't have been a problem before.

Happy2Play: The mind boggles.  I had a thought that the length of the path might be causing problems, but  your screenshot shows that's not the case.

Luke: it was in F:\Actions\Comic Books\The Dark Knight\

 

 

 

The other odd thing is there are other movies in subfolders under "Comic Books" which it still finds just fine.  

 

 

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions and trying to help.

If I look back to post#3, F:\Actions\Comic Book\The Dark Knight

 

Wonder what would happen if you'd now put it back down 1 level, maybe the scraper doesn't "like" the Comic Book folder (?)

 

A very long time ago, I was using similar "complex" paths, but eventually moved to something more succinct, like:

F:\The Dark Knight\The Dark Knight.mp4

 

Main reason: Multi-genres movies, ie: comedy-drama, if you choose to put it in drama, you might later look for it in vain in comedy... Emby and Kodi are very capable of tagging your movies per genres, even multi-ones.

Sorry, it is still "Comic Book" and not "Comic Books"

Thanks jlr19 I'll keep that in mind.  I may reorganize my media collection like that at some point.  I've already struggled in trying to categorize genres.

I've already struggled in trying to categorize genres.

 

Emby already does it via metadata so structure really makes no difference.

Understood.  I started my library before migrating to Emby.  I've got some inertia going.
