n00b42 41 Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 First, I started encountering "Error BaseItem: Found folder containing items with duplicate id" after there were some incorrect manually sorted files (no season folder) and I removed them and moved them to a correct season folder. Following another topic: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/69079-missing-episodes-in-tv-show/?hl=%2Berror+%2Bbaseitem%3A+%2Bfound+%2Bfolder+%2Bcontaining+%2Bitems+%2Bwith+%2Bduplicate I did a rescan and tried to add them again. During that duration some new TV episodes were sorted and maybe interfered with some of the rescan-processes, because afterwards I had some new TV series without any listed seasons or episodes, or others with some of the episodes but not all of them listed even though the files are there. So I'm left with correctly sorted files, but no more rescans will add them to Emby... Furthermore, but probably unrelated: On the dashboard, the "newest TV series" always has a duplicate entry (not always the same), see screenshot RegardsMax emby.log
n00b42 41 Posted March 15, 2019 Author Posted March 15, 2019 Just saw that this might be related to the same problem discussed at the end of this other thread:https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/70123-library-scan-not-showing-all-content/
n00b42 41 Posted March 16, 2019 Author Posted March 16, 2019 Sorry, probably mixed together to many isssues: 1.) I have some TV shows which are not detected with a library scan. They are named correctly, and the TV show folder is recognized, but not all (or none) of the episodes are recognized. - First, that occured to me, was after I removed and resorted some of a TV shows episode, which have not been in the correct season folder before, therefore I thought it would be related to the "duplicate id" issue. - Now, it also happened for some new TV shows with episodes that never have been scanned before, and therefore it seems to be another problem. 2.) If issue (1) might be some library database issue, I would be fine with resetting the library BUT would like to keep the watched status (for all users), is that possible? 3.) On the Dashboard the list of "Newest TV shows/episodes" sometimes lists a TV show twice (most of the time the first entry)
Luke 42080 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 1.) I have some TV shows which are not detected with a library scan. They are named correctly, and the TV show folder is recognized, but not all (or none) of the episodes are recognized. Regarding this, let's please go over an example. Thanks.
n00b42 41 Posted March 16, 2019 Author Posted March 16, 2019 1. Example TV Show "Dragon Ball Z". Folder structure: > Dragon Ball Z (1989) > Season 01 > S01E01 - Ein außerirdischer Krieger.mkv The TV show is recognized: pictures and nfo are generated in the folder Dragon Ball Z (1989) The seasons are not recognized, neither Season 01 nor Season 02 contain a season.nfo The episodes are not recognized: the folder Season 01 only contains the mkv files, no pictures or nfo files. Emby shows the TV show, but no Seasons or episodes. 2. example TV show "Powers" Folder structure: > Powers (2015) > Season 01 > S01E01 - Pilot.mkv The TV show is recognized: pictures and nfo are generated in the folder Powers (2015) The seasons are not recognized, neither Season 01 nor Season 02 contain a season.nfo The episodes are only recognized partly: the folder Season 01 contains the mkv files, but only pictures and nfo files for the first 3 episodes out of 6; the folder Season 02 contains the only mkv files, no pictures and nfo files. Emby shows the TV show, but no seasons:
Luke 42080 Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 Try removing those series folders from your library, then running a full library scan, and then adding them back. Please see if that helps. Thanks.
n00b42 41 Posted March 17, 2019 Author Posted March 17, 2019 It seems to help sometimes. For example, with Dragon Ball Z I already tried that, with no change, yesterday. However, just tried it again and it worked this time....
n00b42 41 Posted March 17, 2019 Author Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Now I added the next two seasons, but again, they do not appear in Emby, but the logs show that the files were "processed": 2019-03-17 13:01:43.785 Info LibraryMonitor: Dragon Ball Z (/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)) will be refreshed. 2019-03-17 13:01:44.425 Info HttpClient: HttpClientManager GET: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/12971/season/3?api_key=f6bd687ffa63cd282b6ff2c6877f2669&append_to_response=images,keywords,external_ids,credits,videos&language=de&include_image_language=de,null,en 2019-03-17 13:01:45.080 Info HttpClient: HttpClientManager GET: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/12971/season/4?api_key=f6bd687ffa63cd282b6ff2c6877f2669&append_to_response=images,keywords,external_ids,credits,videos&language=de&include_image_language=de,null,en 2019-03-17 13:01:45.879 Info App: [LinuxMount] Checking we can attempt to mount [/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E01 - Der Gott der Träume.mkv], Extension = [.mkv], Operating System = [Linux], Executables Available = [True]. 2019-03-17 13:01:45.879 Debug MediaEncoder: Ffprobe -i file:"/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E01 - Der Gott der Träume.mkv" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_chapters -show_format -show_data 2019-03-17 13:01:45.879 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Execute: /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/ffmpeg/bin/ffprobe -i file:"/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E01 - Der Gott der Träume.mkv" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_chapters -show_format -show_data 2019-03-17 13:01:45.907 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Started. 2019-03-17 13:01:46.434 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Process exited with code 0 2019-03-17 13:01:46.490 Info HttpClient: HttpClientManager GET: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/12971/season/3/episode/1?api_key=f6bd687ffa63cd282b6ff2c6877f2669&append_to_response=images,external_ids,credits,videos&language=de&include_image_language=de,null,en 2019-03-17 13:01:46.767 Info HttpClient: HttpClientManager GET: https://private.omdbapi.com?apikey=fe53f97e&i=tt0214341&season=3&detail=full 2019-03-17 13:01:47.875 Info App: [LinuxMount] Checking we can attempt to mount [/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E02 - Drei Wünsche.mkv], Extension = [.mkv], Operating System = [Linux], Executables Available = [True]. 2019-03-17 13:01:47.875 Debug MediaEncoder: Ffprobe -i file:"/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E02 - Drei Wünsche.mkv" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_chapters -show_format -show_data 2019-03-17 13:01:47.875 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Execute: /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/ffmpeg/bin/ffprobe -i file:"/volume6/series1/Dragon Ball Z (1989)/Season 03/S03E02 - Drei Wünsche.mkv" -threads 0 -v info -print_format json -show_streams -show_chapters -show_format -show_data 2019-03-17 13:01:47.903 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Started. 2019-03-17 13:01:48.131 Info MediaEncoder: ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Process exited with code 0 [...] Also doing a "rescan" after some time did not change it.

n00b42 41 Posted March 17, 2019 Author Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) So, Season 3 and 4 did not work, so I deleted Season 3 again and did a rescan, then added Season 3 again and did another rescan. This did not help with Season 3, but for some reason now the first 3 episodes of Season 4 have their metadata/picture, which have not been there before.... Can I provide you with any more hints/information, or should I test something? Could it be that there is an issue if too many "new" files are detected? Suddenly, after another "rescan" the first 3 episodes of Seasons 3 have their metadata&images pulled... Or some sort of timeout for the process? Edited March 17, 2019 by n00b42
n00b42 41 Posted March 17, 2019 Author Posted March 17, 2019 Just to clarify, is there a difference (if only considering the effect on the mentioned library) between the following? Running "Library > Scan all libraries" Running "Library > Series (my lib name) > Scan library" Running "Tasks > Scan media library"
n00b42 41 Posted March 18, 2019 Author Posted March 18, 2019 After removing "Powers (2015)" and rescan, I addded a single episode again: "Powers (2015) > Season 01 > S01E01 - Pilot.mkv" Interestingly enough, the TV series is recognized (tvshow.nfo) AND the episode is recognized (S01E01 - Pilot.nfo, no image though), but the Season is not recognized (no season.nfo) Emby shows the TV show, and allows to start/continue the "episode" but does not show the Season at all.
Luke 42080 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 What i would try doing is removing the entire Powers series folder out of your library, then run a complete library scan, then add it back. Please see if that helps. Thanks.
n00b42 41 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) - Already did that 2 times, always testing with a single episode (S01E01) now to avoid long delays while testing First time it again added the show and the episode but not the season, the second time it added the season as well, but when I then tried to add another episode (S01E02) it took some time until it showed up correctly - For another TV show I tried the same but there seemed to be some remnants in the database because I have several episodes twice, as seperated entries: One of both with incorrect meta data and one with the correct one After letting Emby fix the metadata, they showed as the same entry with two versions but are actually the same path/file: - And on several other occasions I noticed that episodes were listed with different version were both point to the same file, but using local paths ("\volume6\series1\...") for the one and global paths ("\\192.168.0.123\series1\") for the other Edited March 20, 2019 by n00b42
n00b42 41 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Posted March 20, 2019 Ok, with a lot of effort in removing TV shows, library rescans, adding them again, and several repeats, as well as removing episodes and readding them one by one, I could solve most of the issues so far. But I assume that this should not have happened, maybe my descriptions/logs can be somewhat helpful in the future.
