1) The RECORDINGS library creates itself at each Emby Server Re-start.  I have not manually set this up.  I can remove it, but next time the server starts, it's back.  If I leave it alone long enough it'll create a primary image for itself too, exactly as it is programmed to do.  But I don't want it!

2) The contents of this library are the files and folders of my drive  "W".  I have created individual libraries for each of the named folders, but not for anything in the root directory. See the screen capture icon with Howard Stern.  That's a root directory floater.

3) Note the Jimmy Kimmel "!New TV" and the "TV Vault #2" Libraries/folders.  THOSE two have been manually entered by me as legitimate libraries which update as they should when content changes....BUT NOT WHEN THE RECORDINGS LIBRARY IS ACTIVE.

4) Once I remove "Recordings", all libraries on "W" (Having to be re-scanned, of course) return to their expected locations and all is right with the world.

 

I want the folders I create as Libraries to show as I have defined them.  I do not want a library of the complete contents of W...especially one that, without my asking or expecting, voids the other libraries as I have created them.

 

Help?

Check your DVR settings because you may have configured it to use that folder path.

That's it.  Nice job, Luke.  I'll see if that answers it.
