    I did all of those things. It did not fix the issue unfortunately. I still have the same ffmpeg in logs and the log_date can be accessed for what is now yesterday, but when put into pastebin it says that it is too large. Is there somewhere else I can paste it and/or do to make it fit on paste bin? It appears that the main things that are not able to be played are the things connected to my Shoko server using shokofin. I don't know if that entirely makes a difference, or not.

    Edit: When I opened it last night after starting it was not doing anything. This morning it says generating Trickplay Images and is at 17.3% currently. Seems to take a while for it to generate haha. Just also curious what doing this process will do to help fix my issue? Not saying it won't just didn't know how it would. Sorry if it is a stupid question.

    Edit edit: I made a new library pointing to the same folder as I noticed that the library did not have some of the recent shows that I had put in there despite them being on Shoko and whenever I tried to make it find new files it would not update anything. So, I created a new library with the same exact folder, and it seemed to fix it. I appreciate the help and upon writing this my trickplay images is only at 24.5% after 10 hours since my previous edit lol (library is roughly 5TB as of right now), so I am glad I figured something out sooner.
