Good Afternoon
First let me say, to anyone who read my last post, i'm sorry I was so angry and whatnot. It was a bad time for my pc to be locked up. Anyway just saying sorry I was pissy.
Ok So I'm having two problems:
1) I have the empty seasons and episodes.
I have tried unchecking the empty episode item...(why the heck would that be checked by default? Seems that's the sort of thing the admin should do. Is that how we ended up with so many people having this problem and being told too bad delete and re-add?)
Then I did a full scan - no change. Suggestions were to remove the series and add it back. That's a BS answer, as i'm sure many of you are like me and have your series scattered across different drives. JF has the option to combine if you do that.... Also It's in MANY of my series. I can't simply remove each directory and add back,...just not feasible or reasonable to be put out as the only option I read in threads about this. I also saw someone suggest just rempving the item frtom the interfae. Sure it should work, but instead it tells me it doesn't have premissiions (to delete the non existing item) and fails to remove it.
2) the server is not removing deleted / moved media. I have one persnickety series that keept pulling in a non connected item (named properly do idk why). Ok so then I deleted that. It's STILL in my library. As a second copy of episode 2 of that series. After deleting it no longert has a preview image but it is STILL THERE with media info etc. I even have a show whose full directory was deleted and it STILL shows up. One season with episodes and 6 or so empty seasons. If the directory isn't there why the heck is it still populating after a full scan? What's up? Maybe it doesn't bother people but i'm getting constant chatter back from the family about trying to play something that fails.
I have lots of "missing" media
I know i asked it before, but frankly I never looked back for responses. Am I the only one having trouble since 10.9? I NEVER had trouble with 10.8. It took a very long time for 10.8 to continue increasing in point releases. With 10.9 it seems theres an update to fix some problem or another every week or so. Just feels like 10.9 simply didn't get tested enough? This many bugs and releases is pretty bad....
Anyway I don't expect much, but I thought I'd check on here and see if anyone has resolved it for themselves
So various problems:
This missing episide drama
That stupid chmod (I see the update properly kills JF first? Not sure if it did that before)
A strange and hard to chase lag when opening the main screen. I can take between instant and 2~ minutes just to populate the home screen. Client and server are local both on gig ethernet.
I am on linux (6.10)
I am running 10.9.11
Lotsa drives
Pleanty of RAM and cpu cycles
I can't do things a series at a time. MAYBE I can blast a library at a time and rebuild them. Not sure if that then keeps user data and watched status. If I have to do all that, with who knows what other bugs coming that maybe it's time to look again at emby or plex. I hate plex, and everything they stand for, but if there's going to be continuing problems with basic functionaly I guess....
