10.9.8 Messes up Collections

[KodiUser1138]

After updating to 10.9.8 my collections have issues. Movies, seemingly from one network location source, are no longer listed in the correct collections. Further, JF no longer reads the local XML files for collections on a refresh or any updates made to them, and in many cases no longer even creates them. This has become a large frustration as I have nearly 300 collections which are mostly set-up for directors but also various series.

Still unclear why different rules can't be established for collections that would allow automatic population based on metadata like person's name, media title/sort title, tags etc.

Regardless, having almost every collection entry missing a large portion of it's entries isn't ideal after putting in the work to create them in the first place.

This was posted in the main 10.9.8 thread but there didn't appear to be any information about it there.
