Episodes showing up when I search; but not in the actual Show. Only some of them.

For example:

 

Shows as nothing here. It's empty. BUT, if I search?

 

 

Episodes show up.

 

Another example:

 

 

35 episodes show.  But when I go inside it?

 

 

 

Only the Specials are showing up in the seasons. They are ALL labeled correctly.

 

 

Most shows are fine. I can't figure out why this happens.

That is a bit strange.

Have you tried moving that series out of the library, doing a full library scan then moving it back and scanning again?

@Mkilbride ?

So I removed the library itself.  Then re-added. It appears to have fixed it, but it fucked up a lot of my metadata which is what I was worried about.  Weird that it happened in the first place...

 

Re-scanning my library seems to be taking an extra-ordinary amount of time. It's been at 88.5% for quite awhile now. Maybe the HDD is going? It's only a couple years old, but it hasn't been making any weird sounds and S.M.A.R.T says it fine(But that's only half-way trustable)

 

Might be time to replace it I guess.

Don't  sweat the percent done.  It's not really linear in time but in function of what needs to get done.

Example: On my system I can get to 94% in 10 to 15 minutes but take hours to finish to 100% all depending on library options and meta-data providers.
If in doubt of what's happening just check the system log and you'll see it's working.

Just let it run and finish on it's own.

Yeah after I posted it literally finished and everything was fine, haha. It just seemed unusual, as usually when I do a full library scan it takes a minute or two. Must've been because it was re-adding like 30+ shows. Oh well. It's fixed now.

 

I wish I had one of those 1000Mbps uploads instead of just 18Mbps. I'd definitely get some backup storage going then, but 18Mbps is painfully slow to try backing up. I hate Comcast for this. Gives me 1000Mbps download- but 18Mbps upload, seems like a joke. I'd take like 500Mbps download if I could also have 500Mbps upload. It'd make a huge difference to me, and be worth it.

Glad you got it working.

Yea I know what you mean.  I had 400Mb + upload via Verizon but then a car took out part of the system in an accident and I was the last house on the FIOS line (only house in 2 blocks) so they did a repair for everyone but me.  I lost my "high speed" and had to switch to Comcast/Xfinity for 2+ years which gave me 8 to 10Mb upload.  Even with a highly upgraded plan I could only get 17 to 18Mb upload.  Was a drastic change in how my Emby server could be accessed.

Last month Verizon came a knocking and was back expanding down the road and I was lucky to get 1 Gb from them which just feels so much faster uploading now. I've now got both services running and keeping both so I've got a backup or can test remote access quite easily.

I wouldn't worry about remote backup services but go USB3 drives for important media.
