Multiple instances of 'Continue Watching' files - Terry Fyde - 2024-12-21
Hi.
A little while ago, I started noticing weird behaviour when stopping the playback of video files (music is not affected).
The home screen displays multiple instances of the same in-progress video files. The behaviour started to occur seemingly randomly, with some files affected while others were not (it seemed related to the client being used).
It gradually progressed to the point that every time playback was stopped before completion (regardless of the client), I would have 2 instances of the same file on the home screen 'Continue Watching' section.
I am now getting 3 instances of the same file on the home screen.
This has been happening over different releases of the server & clients (Android TV, Android, Windows).
If I resume & complete the file, all instances are marked as complete/watched.
I am currently using the latest versions of the server & clients.
The server is Windows (on an old Win 10 Intel NUC), with media located on a Synology NAS.
I have the ATV clients on my TV & Zidoo media player.
The Windows client is on a different Win 11 PC.

For each instance of an episode, can you hover over the image, click on the "..." context menu, then click "media info". Are they the same file? Or do you have dupes?

No duplicates. They are all the same file.

Can you share your full jellyfin log via pastebin? And what plugins do you have installed? Do you happen to have the trakt plugin installed?

I've got 2 logs to share, but one is too large for Pastebin. I've attached them in a ZIP file instead.
No Trakt. My plugins are listed in the below screenshot.

Remove the IMVDB plugin. 99.9% of your log are failure messages related to that plugin. I cannot find anything between the millions of lines of IMVDB error messages.
Also, I noticed you have network paths directly in Jellyfin. What server version are you running? I'm assuming NOT 10.10.x. If so, I do recall there being a bug related to this issue in a prior version.

OK, I'll uninstall that one & see if it makes any difference. Thanks.
I try to keep my server & clients always up to date. I'm on 10.10.3.

I've removed the IMVDB plugin (& a few others) with no improvements.
RE: Multiple instances of 'Continue Watching' files - TheDreadPirate - 2024-12-22
Removing IMVDB was more about cleaning up the log. The errors related to that plugin were, literally, 99.999999% of the millions of lines of that log.
Restart your jellyfin server, initiate scan from the dashboard home and once that finishes can you share a fresh jellyfin log?

Done.
This log is pretty big, too.
