Collections keep comming back

[jriker1 20]

I am using Emby Server latest beta on Windows.  And EMby for MCE on another computer.  Been working great for years.  I am having an issue with Collections that whenever I start Emby, it crashes.  Windows or Xbox 360.  Error is INVALID APPLICATION Unable to launch "emby".  So I go into the web gui and remove collections all good.  But guess what, everytime I load Emby on the Xbox 360 I see on the screen, "New Item Added: collections".  Then the next time I exit Emby and go in will get the error again.  Irregardless of getting Collections to work as I don't use it, how do I get Emby to stop adding collections back in everytime I load Emby thru my Xbox 360?

 

Thanks.

How are you removing the collections?

[jriker1 20]

Open IE

Go to http://<server>:8096/web/index.html

Manage Servers

Library

Click the three ... under Collections block

Remove

Then OK

 

It then allows a one time launch of Emby for Xbox 360 in which the Xbox seems to add it back into the library.

 

Thanks.

Right, if you actually have collections then you can't do that. it's a pre-generated library by the server and will keep coming back. You will need to delete all of your collections first, then you can remove the library.

What defines a collection?  I do collections in the old format or I guess BoxSets if those aren't collections putting [boxSet]. in the folder paths on the hard drive. 

 

Thanks.

Ok i see an issue causing it to get re-created when not necessary. This is resolved for the next release, thanks.
