ServerGuy 24 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Hello Emby gods, I recently added an episode to a season, however the episode still shows missing. (See Screenshot) Episode 27 and 28 are contained within the same file and have been named as such (Filename is S02E27E28.mkv). This follows the same naming scheme i have used in other series that work fine. Ive performed a library scan as well as had it refresh and replace all metadata for this season, however the episode still shows missing. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be appreciated. Thanks!
Happy2Play 9783 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Does it still appear like that after a Full Library scan? Some users are seeing quirks with "Display missing episodes within seasons" user setting (User icon-Display)?
ServerGuy 24 Posted October 8, 2019 Author Posted October 8, 2019 It does remain after a library scan, I also disabled then re-enabled the missing episode display in my profile
ebr 16187 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Yeah, I imagine this is a case we simply didn't anticipate - an individual missing episode being replaced within a combined episode.
Luke 42083 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 That's strange. I thought we were handling that scenario. @@Happy2Play are you able to reproduce?

ServerGuy 24 Posted October 8, 2019 Author Posted October 8, 2019 Do you have an outline of the steps you're looking for? The basic steps I took are: Moving the file to the correct season folder from outside the library directory Letting the automatic scan pick up the file Once the episode was added to the library and I noticed the episode still showed as missing I ran a library scan I then ran a replace all metadata on the season Disabled and re-enabled the missing episode display on my user profile If you have any other details youre looking for just let me know
Happy2Play 9783 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 I have no issue adding multi-episode items and them being picked up properly. @@ServerGuy What naming scheme did you use? Have you tried removing the episode, doing a library scan, and re-adding the episdoe?
ebr 16187 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Happy - make sure you test the scenario of having x and y as missing and then add one that is x-y. The key there being that no episode gets identified as y (either by itself or as the first episode of a multi). If that works, then maybe it is the case of only having y missing in the first place...

That is what I provided above. Arrow S01E20 thru E23 were missing and I added S01E21-E22.disc. I also tried having say S01E22 present and E23 missing and replacing E22 with S01E22-E23, without issue.
ebr 16187 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Okay, thanks, Happy. One interesting thing I note is that there is no metadata for the "Missing" one. That leads me to believe, maybe it isn't properly identified as that actual episode and maybe that's why it isn't going away. ServerGuy - if you look at that item in the metadata editor does anything stand out?

ServerGuy - if you look at that item in the metadata editor does anything stand out? Actually I think that may be it. Since it does not have a proper name I would assume it has changed/been updated via provider site from when the item was cached in Emby. @@ServerGuy What happens if you do a Refresh All on that missing episode, then a library scan?
Luke 42083 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 It's all based on episode numbers so the name shouldn't matter.
ebr 16187 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 The name, specifically, doesn't matter but the fact that "version" of the episode has no metadata when that metadata is available seems to indicate the system doesn't really know which episode it is...
Happy2Play 9783 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 May need to see the server log when this episode is refreshed since the first post says it was already done on the season.
