All mylocal Metadata is gone since the v4 update

Just set "Movies are in separate folders that match the movie title" for your Kodi libraries.

That ignores custom local metadata/images and iust pulls them from the internet, which is not what in trying to do.

 

Unless I'm missing something?

With this setting Kodi searches for local images that are named poster.jpg, fanart.jpg, landscape.jpg and so on. Otherwise Kodi is looking for moviename-poster.jpg, moviename-fanart.jpg and so on.

You should learn the basics of Kodi first, before coming here to blame Emby!

I know Kodi inside and out.

 

Read my list about Kodi testing. There's something specific to the Emby generated metadata/images

Ha, I'll test further and report back. To be direct, I did not know the difference between enabling folder named after or disabling it, but my testing all seems to point to the Emby image as the common constant in my experiments. That said, I sincerely appreciate your help and I'll be more than happy to eat crow of that fixes my problem

Happens to the best of us. Sometimes we get a side of humble pie for desert as well!  LOL

 

Glad you got it working.
