Camera Upload from my phone created many copies of the Camera Upload Library on my Emby Server.

[wayloncovil 2]

I wanted to try the Camera Upload feature from my Android phone so I installed the Emby app on my phone and enabled the Camera Upload feature.

I have my Camera Upload folder set to D:\PhotoBackup

During the backup, a folder was created using my username inside the PhotoBackup folder.

But, there were then probably 50 libraries created on the Emby Server called Camera Upload. They all resolved to the same user.

On the server, there is still only the PhotoBackup folder with the username folder inside.

Logs attached.

Hi, Can you post a picture of the folder on the server with the 50 folders in it please?

I see a couple of errors in the log similar to this:

2020-12-29 12:38:03.680 Error ImageExtraction: ffmpeg image extraction failed for file:"D:\PhotoBackup\User1\Camera Roll\VID_20190424_134855714.mp4" (output file not found)

Also seeing errors processing requests as well.

2020-12-29 12:38:44.676 Error Server: Error processing request

2020-12-29 12:39:16.393 Error App: Error removing library

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\root\default\Camera Uploads'.  <-- Is this path still part of the camera library ?

Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Core.BadHttpRequestException: Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Core.BadHttpRequestException: Request body too large.

This is something @Luke will need to look at.

I just did the same thing. I noticed the phone that I've had for nearly a year hasn't be sync'g with emby.  When it did sync last night, it uploaded 1000+ pics which is great, but it created 80+ "Camera Uploads" features on the home page.

Several of the libraries have 85 pics in them, as if there is a max upload limit of 85 files that creates a new library each time a limit is hit.  But some of the libraries are copies of each other.

Any way to fix this????

Some others have had similar issues and is something Luke will need to look at.

Curious for all those library shown above, are they pointed to different disc folders or to the same folder?
Can you show a picture of the actual disc storage where camera info is stored for this user?

[socalredneck 11]

I have a dedicated drive for emby. I'm not sure if this is what you're asking for or not.

[socalredneck 11]

If I remove each Camera Upload library, but one, can I then "Scan Library Files" to fix it? Or if I Remove one, will it remove all of the Camera Upload libraries?

What does C:\Users\Mike\AppData\Emby-Server\programdata\data\camerauploads folder look like on disc?

Can you take a pic of that please?
