I have genres that aren't showing up in Genre Cleaner

[Deathsquirrel 745]

I'm currently looking at a 'TV Movie' genre in my movie library.  It shows in the metadata editor but isn't showing up in the genre editor so I can delete it all at once.

 

Server is v4.3.0.30 and plugin is v 1.0.16.0.  Metadata is stored in NFO format with the media files.  All metadata is scraped by Emby.

Does it show in the genres tab of your movie library?

Yes, that's where I see them.  The contents are in my Movies library and if I open those titles in the metadata editor the genre is shown there.

If the plugin is working, it should be stripping genres not listed in genre cleaner.  Since you have to add approved Genres to the plugin after a content type has be initialized.

Only the genres defined below will be allowed. All other genres from any source will be discarded unless mapped to one of these.

I guess you could backup and/or delete the genrecleaner.xml in the /plugin/configuration folder, and re-initialized the Media types.

Yeah before I did hat I figured I should report it in case there was log data to review that might explain it.

Since the plug-in is inclusive instead of exclusive, if the genre doesn't show there, then it will get discarded.  If you want to map it to something else, just add it and map it.

 

You shouldn't have to re-initialize anything.
