walking dead TV show

I have no idea what is going wrong

I have a lot of TV shows on my Nas they all have the same structure. But for some bizarre reason emby cannot get it right for the walking dead. No poster no episode information no list of actors etc. all the seasons are separate folders with a single color.

If you look in the Metadata Manager, does it show anything at all for the show?  If not, try adding in the correct theTVDB or IMDB id under External IDs and see if it correctly matches the show.

here you can see it clearly.

What's the folder structure on the file system level look like?

[kodibart 0]

/volumes/video/series/the walking dead/

why does it work with the other TV shows except this one? all my series are like this

/volumes/video/series/nameofthetvshow/each season in his own folder.

The only way for this to happen is if something is wrong with the folder structure.

 

Can you post a screenshot of the in series in Metadata Manager and one of the seasons.

Just curious, why do you have so much storage?

Servers at two different locations.   Just a media hoarder.

no 2 different locations. there is only one Nas in the house and the ip start with 192.168

 

if I would have a bad file/folder structure why does it come it works well with the other TV shows? It's just with the walking dead I am having issues with. will post more screenshots tonight

/volumes/video/series/The Walking Dead/Season 1/The Walking Dead  S01E01  Days Gone Bye.mkv/ (actual file name may vary slightly)

if everything checks out ok, I would cut and paste the parent walking dead folder out of Emby's monitored folder, remove all nfo and art, then cut and paste back to original location.

 

I agree with Happy2Play: something must be (even slightly) off in the structure of that show.

here are some screenshots from the metadata manager

I think the extra "Seizoen 1" under Season 1 is causing your issue.

 

Should just be one level for Seasons instead you have two.

if you look at the this screenshot you see that above the path there is a selection bar . This is only visible with this particular tv show

 

The next screenshot is a different tv show, and as you can clearly see, this one does not show this selection bar

on my nas I only use the following structure nfs://192.168.0.3/volume1/video/Series/The Walking Dead/Season 1

Can you double check that in:

 

nfs://192.168.0.3/volume1/video/Series/The Walking Dead/Season 1

 

There are no further folders? Metadata manager suggests there's another folder in there that contains all of the episodes.

I swicthed to English

First screenshot you see that I can choose Content type (TV Show / Inheret

 

Next screenhot (other tv show) you see there is no such "content type' selection

[Jorpd 0]

Have you tried removing the .nfo files?

For my own sanity I'd still like to see directory listings for the following directories:

nfs://192.168.0.3/volume1/video/Series/

nfs://192.168.0.3/volume1/video/Series/The Walking Dead/

nfs://192.168.0.3/volume1/video/Series/The Walking Dead/Season 1

The content type at series level is one issue, what is your Library type, TV or Unset?

Dashboard-Library

 

How did you setup your Series library?

[Happy2Play 9780]

@@kodibart can you show us a screenshot of the folder contents of 

/volumes/video/Series/The Walking Dead/

and

/volumes/video/Series/The Walking Dead/Season 1

thanks !

Also need this.

[Happy2Play 9780]

To capture this issue, content type "TV" means The Walking Dead series folder becomes a Parent folder and everything inside it is considered a Series (i.e. each season).  The simple fix should be changing The Walking Dead content type to "Inherit" hit save and perform a library scan.

 

The question is why or how did it get set to "TV"?

 

This screenshot shows an additional issue if you have nested Season/Seizoen folders, the reason for the request of file system folder level screenshots.
