Emby refuses to scan or add some of my content.

[sagittariusz548@gmail.com 1]

Greetings! I'm trying to get back into using Emby, but I'm running into some issues. The server won't append some of my content to my library.

I have a very large archive of YouTube videos on an exfat drive, and when I add then to my library Emby seems to refuse to scan the directory. The folder for the entire archive is there, and when I click scan on it. It seems to do nothing at all. What do you think is going on? I'll attach a log w/ debug on.

Another similar issue I have is, I have folder of a bunch of audio files and Emby only scans the mp3s and doesn't touch the opus webms

Hi there, can you please go over an example? How are your files named and organized? How did you set up the library?

In regards to my YouTube archive, each channel has it's own folder with folders of videos, and each video has at minimum a JSON file with video details, a JPEG or WEBP thumbnail and an MKV file. Video titles are organized with the upload title with a video Id trailing a hyphen. Some of the channel and video titles have special characters in them like kanji.

With my WEBM library, it's just a folder with a bunch of WEBM files. These files are on a separate ntfs drive, and they're titled similarly to my YouTube videos. The WEBM folder is pretty small too: only 6 GB.

I forgot to mention how I setup my Library. I just threw my YouTube videos in a Home and Videos genre, and when that didn't work I tried Mixed Content.

Hi @sagittariusz548@gmail.com, is this the only emby library you've created? How many emby libraries do you have?
