Locating Media Files Not Correctly Identified or Scraped by Emby

Hello,

 

I understand that Emby needs files to adhere to certain file name schemes in order for them to be scraped successfully by TMDB and other scrapers. However my question is, I have a few video files (specifically movies) that the naming of them are off. What I need to do is fix them so that Emby can scrape them properly. The only issue is I'm not able to quickly find the media files that have not been identified. What I'm doing right now is simply browsing through all my movies looking for ones that show up as not identified, but I'm thinking there has to be an easier or more automated way of accomplishing this. An example of this would be the Missing Movies plugin for Kodi.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Hi, there isn't an easy built-in way of doing this, but we plan to support searching by filename in a future release, so once we have that it could help you locate a specific file.

The Reports plugin could help with this by filtering by missing information.

 Missing Overview
 Missing parental rating
 Missing Imdb id
 Missing MovieDb id
 Missing Tvdb id

Thank you for recommending that plugin. I have it installed, however I don't see where I'm able to sort/filter by "Missing". The only options I see are by "Media" and "Activity".

Click the three dot menu button, then there will be a pop out drawer on the right.
