Swynol 375 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Just wondering what is the deal with People Metadata now? I know emby no longer uses imagesbyname folder. However I have a Emby Metadata Folder. in that folder i have Z:\metadata\people\A...B....C.... Z:\metadata\people\p\people\A...B...C... Z:\metadata\metadata\People\A....B....C..... not sure whats happening. the A-Z folders in each location have some duplicates and others not duplicated. Which folder should Emby be using?
Luke 42085 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 I'm not sure what you're asking. Is there an issue you're trying to report?
Happy2Play 9785 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Which folder should Emby be using? What does metadata say on the Dashboard-Paths? select the drop down Edited January 21, 2017 by Happy2Play
Swynol 375 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Posted January 21, 2017 I'm not sure what you're asking. Is there an issue you're trying to report? not sure its an issue. but in emby i have my meta data path set to z:\ so i'm guessing it creates the metadata folder and the structure. for some reason i have multiple structures. so z:\metadata (the correct one) then z:\metadata\metadata has the same structure but with different artists names. then i also have another metadata folder z:\metadata\people\p\people\a...b...c....d...e... etc. with different artists again but with some duplicates of z:\metadata
Happy2Play 9785 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) And what does the Dashboard say? Yes, Emby creates subfolders for all custom paths as users attempted to put them all in on location like Temp-Trancoding and Metadata and everything would get deleted. If you set path to z:\ then z:\metadata should be your actual path everything else is duplicated stuff. Edited January 21, 2017 by Happy2Play
Swynol 375 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Posted January 21, 2017 ye thats what i thought. just wondering how it managed so many duplicates. its going to take some time to merge the 43000 folders...
