Good call, changed the slow to answer prompt. Season 1-12 are all from my DVD collection, 13+ are a combination of Bluray and WEB sourced. Just went through and tried to play episode 1 from every even numbered season all the way through to Season 30 and none of them play at all. They are all part of the same TV share on the NAS as all my other content on the same volume. File path you can see in the 2nd line of the mediainfo, each season has it's own folder.

Apologies for any responses that seem short/rude, on the spectrum and get frustrated very easily with technology. Do my best to keep it under wraps but doesn't always work when something isn't going as it should.
