Alfsvag 2 Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 I recently imported a bunch of TV Shows (for the first time). However, even though the TV Shows seems to have been properly scanned they do not show up on the home menu. If I go to settings to edit Home Screen then only Movies and Collections show up. I can only access the TV Shows through Server -> Library where they are listed as "TV Shows". From there I can access all TV Shows. However, when accessing the shows, all are empty but if I click "Episodes" I see 4000+ episodes, all seem to be properly scanned with correct thumbnail, description etc. This is the only way I seem to be able to access them. All shows are named the following: Name of show (year) -> Season X -> SXXEXX - Name of episode All of the episodes already had .nfo files since from when I ran Kodi. All episodes have also been ran through as I have newly generated .bif files for each episode. No errors show up in the log. Am I missing something obvious? I currently run 4.5.4.0, but I tried the Beta prior with the same results. So, to reiterate the problem, I can access episodes when I go to Library -> TV Shows -> Episodes.
Luke 42077 Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Hi there, what Emby libraries have you created, and what folder paths did you add to each one?

I have attached a picture on the library. Currently only one show is inside Temp. It's named the following way: Family guy (1999) -> Season 1 -> S01EXX - Name.mkv
Solution Alfsvag 2 Posted March 8, 2021 Author Solution Posted March 8, 2021 Oh, I just realized that I hadn't given access to the TV Show folder. Works now! A bit confusing as I could still access the individual episodes when I went from Library -> Episodes
Happy2Play 9780 Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Yes the Access option has been a issue for all users that use this option.

Thanks. 1
Happy2Play 9780 Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Yes there is a difference here with Access in 4.5 to 4.6. Since the library is restricted, it is only accessible via Dashboard-Library. In 4.5 you see things but not 100% functional tabs. In 4.6 tabs will be empty. There is no access to this library outside of the Admin Dashboard-Library link. So if library does not appear on Home Screen the first thing a Admin need to look at is User Access.
