Hello everyone, I was trying to move my music into my server now that I have my videos done. After I created the library, the Music section is empty and I don't see any songs in it, the format is .mp3 so I don't think that is the problem, anyone had this issue?

 

Thank you all.

Hi there, how did you set this up in Emby library setup? Did you wait for the library scan to finish after adding the library?

I set the folder as "Music" and I only added 3 songs at first to test it, so the scan only took but a second. I can see the Artist Folders but they're empty.

 

Here's a screenshot of the setup for the folder.

Thank you for your help!

Hi.  Are your songs properly tagged with Album and Artist info?

Yes sir.

Then I guess we'll need to see some more details like screen shots of the actual structure and library setup and a log from when these are ingested into the system.

 

Thanks.

Which logs would you like from the server? I tried moving some songs up one folder to see if that would help and it didn't work either, here is a screenshot of that.

Okay, you definitely don't want the library pointing directly to that Taylor Swift folder (I wouldn't think).

 

I would remove the library entirely, run a library scan and let it finish, then restart the server, add back your library (with just the music folder) and let that automatic scan finish.  Then post just the embyserver.txt log file.

 

Thanks.

Sorry for the late response, I moved my server yesterday and couldn't get it back online until today.

 

Here is the log file after I did all the steps that you said.

 

Thank you for your help.

It looks like you have another Emby library pointing to the top of your f: drive. Please remove that and then run a library scan. You can't add the same folder twice. In other words, you can't have F:\ in one library, and then F:\music in another.

 

Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

That fixed the issue! Thank you, I don't know why I had that drive set for my Movies when there's only Music in it. Thank you for all your help!
