Movie missing in Meta Data Manager and in Library


Recommended Posts

This is going to be hard to explain but I'm going to try my best.

 

I have a movie called "Get Shorty" I Ripped it from a BluRay disc to put on my server. When I did it and added it, Emby monitor picked it up and did what it had to do. It got the movie cover, metadata, etc. GREAT

 

Now when my brother went looking for it to play it, he went under "G" and could not find it there for the life of him. I thought he was just being stupid..... so I went looking for it under my Roku, Xbox1 & web app, and sure as hell, Get Shorty is NOT where it is suppose to be Alphabetically.

 

Odd I thought... If I fire up the search or Look up Danny DeVito, I can find the movie that way...... I thought ok maybe something with the Meta Data..... So I went to Meta Data Manager, and the movie is just NOT there! I've been using Emby for a LONG time, so I'm quite familiar with it and know I'm looking in the right place. I even did a CTRL-F and looked for "get Shorty" & "getshorty" and it's not there....

 

 

I went back to just plain search, found the movie and Looked at its Meta Data Info, and it's all correct in there..... so to be honest I'm a little lost and confused on this one...

 

Is there a bug or something I just discovered/ I'm not sure if this is happening with another movie ( I have far too many to test) but know for sure this movie is acting up.

 

I even re-ripped it, added it to the library again, and still same results.......

 

Thanks!

Is it by any chance added to a collection and you are collapsing them in the views?

I can go check on that, this may sound like a stupid question, but, what would be the easiest way to see what collection it belongs too if any? I didn't se that entry in "get shorty" meta data

 

Thanks for the response.

You'd have to check your collections.

Thanks for answering Luke! I'll have to go through them all to see if I can find it...

 

Just throwing an idea @@Luke .... maybe in the movie meta data info a section that shows if the movie is part of a collection for faster/easier look up?

 

Just an idea :)

Include Collection information on movie's title screen

Ah ok looks like it's already been requested :) Then I guess it's up to Luke to implement :) I'll wait patiently. Can't rush a good job :)

 

Let me know when you guys roll it out!

while devs are actively implementing reverse collection lookup, you might want to look in your movie collections for something called Chili Palmer Collection...

Glad it could help you, I just searched for "Get Shorty" over at themoviedb.org and found over there its part of Chili Palmer... :)
