Auto-Organize Series folders are in lower case

[tsikerdekis]

Even if my folders have their starting letter properly capitalized, autoorganize creates a separate folder that is lower case and that confuses emby.

Is this the expected behavior?

[LukePulverenti]

No, what does confuses mean?

[tsikerdekis]

I mean that Emby will not read the files properly into the Show. Instead I have to search for the file and then do a refresh metadata exactly on that file so that it will show up as a new episode on Emby

[LukePulverenti]

You may have to give it a few minutes as it reports the changes internally to the server just like the realtime monitor and there is a delay incorporated into that.

[tsikerdekis]

Extra time does not solve it, I left it for days and it didn't fix it. A bit more on the error (which I am not even sure if it is a plugin or emby error). The folder structure looks like this

myshow (2015) -> Season 4 -> MyShow - 4x01 - Title.mkv

Internally, the show is recognized on emby but the Season is not listed.

[tsikerdekis]

So, I remade the whole library and I can confirm that this doesn't fix the problem. The only way to make so that the season will show properly is to rename the show to either
MyShow (the proper name that corresponds to TVdb)
or
MyShow (2015)

Frankly, I am not sure why autoorganize moves the episodes into a new folder that is the lowercase name of the show

[LukePulverenti]

Can you attach the server log from when this happened? thanks.

[tsikerdekis]

I anonymized the data related to the episode but the log sequence is exactly like it happened.

The GET request returns this:
{"Response":"False","Error":"Series or episode not found!"}

The show however exists and even for episode 21 the GET request succeeds. Somehow the correct title for the episode is identified.

[LukePulverenti]

Can we please look at an exact example? thanks.

[LukePulverenti]

I'm not able to reproduce this. What version of the server and plugin do you have?

[tsikerdekis]

Emby 4.1.1.0
AutoOrganize 1.3.9.0

It still does this for some shows. Not sure why it uses the lowercase format. Does Autorganize use the IMDB title as the folder name? Or does it obtain the tile from the downloaded file name?

[LukePulverenti]

If it is organizing to an existing series in your library, then it uses the folder path of the series that is in your emby database. If it is creating a new series, then the new series name comes from the highest priority metadata provider, which would be tvdb.

I can't reproduce this but there are a lot of changes in the next update to the plugin, so i would suggest re-evaluating with that once you have it. Thanks.
