    thanks for your Replay , yes i know . I tried it first with the new Final release and hat the same Problem .

    Found the Issue ...

    Had duplicates in the migrated DB

    Make A copy of the DB file in "C:\ProgramData\Jellyfin\Server\data"

    use https://sqlitebrowser.org/ --> DB Browser --> open DB file to work with

    SELECT Type, Value, COUNT(*) as Anzahl
    FROM ItemValues
    GROUP BY Type, Value
    HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;

    Search for entries who ar dublicated

    SELECT ROWID, Type, Value
    FROM ItemValues
    WHERE Type = 3 AND Value = 'Dublicate Value entry ';

    as example in my case

    SELECT ROWID, Type, Value
    FROM ItemValues
    WHERE Type = 3 AND Value = 'Ay Yapım';


    Next step, delete duplicated ROWID

    DELETE FROM ItemValues
    WHERE ROWID = one Value of a dubplicatet ROWID here;

    example

    DELETE FROM ItemValues
    WHERE ROWID = 125;

    now you can check again with

    SELECT Type, Value, COUNT(*) as Anzahl
    FROM ItemValues
    GROUP BY Type, Value
    HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;

    repeat for each duplicatet value

    safe and make sure that the name of DB file is correct --> start jellyfin again.

    give him a bit time to run

    "i thought it didn't work, my brother said in the morning he couldn't find the new files ... Grinning-face

    so now I did a new scan of the libraries and everything is back to normal. "


    cheers , hope it helps others too.

    and thanks for the cool community
