Metadata and updating

Okay then you need to go to the Metadata Manager and set your TV parent folder to content type TV.

 

Edit- Once you have done that you will need to perform a Library Scan.

Example of nested effect (only affects TV content)

 

I have a action folder inside my TV library so if the content type is not set then Action become a  Series and everything under it is mis-organized in Emby.  So making it type TV test Emby everything in this folder is a Series.

 

Hope this makes sense.

 

Not exactly like your issue but the same.

In your example K:\Media\TV is misidentified as "Scream: The TV Series"

If your library folders are x:\media for TV and not x:\media\tv then yes you have to change the type from inherit to TV for your TV libraries.

 

The only exception is if all your series folders fall directly in the x:\media folder.  But your logs don't show that.

ok thx.

Should i change the other servers from inherit to tv ? and have to do a library scan ?

What about the movie folders ?

Movie folders are not a issue, just TV do to additional season structures.  Assuming this is you issues you should change it on all servers, then a library scan should resolve the nesting issue.

 

***Setting this is all dependent on Folder structure and how your libraries are created in Emby.

Let up know if this resolves the issue you were having.

is X: a physical drive attached to the server or a mapped network drive?

That was my example OP is setting a Unset Library with these folders.

 

under libraries where you add folders to be scanned into library :

 

K:\Media  click add, done, next folder

M:\Media

L:\Media done, click save

 

an the rest is above.

should i go into every season folder looking for series nfo files ?
