Finding episodes but not putting them in a series.

[KimNK 0]

I am having a problem where emby will identify episodes but not put them in a season. If you search for them you can find them. I have tried doing a refresh missing metadata on the library but that didn't resolve it. They don't show up in the missing metadata view.

[PenkethBoy 2068]

you have your episodes in season folders?

what is the library type for the library containing the series?

 

what metadata downloaders do you have enabled for that library?

 

And attach the images here - see "more reply options" please

any errors in the emby log?

 

do a refresh on the series and then see what errors you get or not

Should I do a refresh metadata or scan for content?

refresh - replace all - but just on the sample series for now

I have run the refresh all on the race across the world series but it didn't seem to do anything. I have attached the log.

I have found if i click on refresh missing on the individual episodes though it seems to fix it?

ok - log shows emby seeing the series and episodes with correct providerids and creating virtual episodes for upcoming episodes

 

So what are the paths to your libraries - do any overlap

 

your tv folder appears to be ../tv/tv...

 

you have not go any libraries pointing to any part of another library? - as nested library folders are not supported

why does you user name keep changing - am i talking to one person or two?

I thought i disabled virtual episodes a few days ago as it was taking ages to scan?

Some library paths end up being /tv/tv like this https://bit.ly/3b44lLY

No overlapping libraries in tv but there was one in the movies library that i have fixed.

I have just noticed that my phone is logged into my test account. One Person.

so having the movies folder as a sub folder is your issue

 

now its removed then things should return to normal after a full library scan

 

those virtual episodes are for Upcoming in tv library - not missing episodes

the movies folder wasn't a sub folder in the tv library? I also haven't updated the libraries for a while and it has just started doing this in the last few days?

When scanning libraries does it check for unmatched metadata?

[PenkethBoy 2068]

what do you mean by unmatched

[KimNK 0]

what do you mean by unmatched

Content which emby hasn't downloaded any metadata for and the episodes that it hasnt put into series.

[PenkethBoy 2068]

would need to do a refresh for that to be sure to get all the info

 

scan does pickup new stuff added as in items as thats what its looking for

 

if the refresh after the lib scan finishes (wait for it to finish) does not work

 

try removing the series completely from emby - do another library scan - then add it back so it detects it again as "new"

how many emby libraries have you created, and what folders have you added to each one?
