2 Collection libraries after update


Recommended Posts

After upgrading to the latest version i saw i had 2 Collection libraries.

One of them showed the path to the 'Collection' folder and the other one did not have this information.

I deleted one, which i found out was the one which had the path set to it.

When i try to edit the other one i am unable to insert a path to my data folder where Collection data is stored.. Is there any way to delete it and rebuild?

Try deleting the last (wrong one) and then do a full library scan.

That should rebuild the collections for you.

If a proper Collection library is shown on Dashboard-Library it is unremovable as there is no Remove/delete option.

You could shut down Emby and got to "C:\Users\username\Desktop\Stable\programdata\root\default" path will be platform prevalent and delete the Collections folder.

This will cause Emby to show a Mix Content Collection folder that then can be remove and Emby will auto generate the correct one.

Just to be clear;

The proper Collection library which is shown in the Dashboard library does NOT have a folder location beneath the name, like other libraries do?

f.e.

Movies

C:\Movies

Correct, as it isn't really a Library it is just a virtual grouping of Collections.

What i ended up doing is a fresh install of Emby. Libraries are rebuilding as we speak and i now see Emby creates auto collections which is awesome!
