Emby – Missing Movies after upgrade 4.9 fix

Okay the Emby Version 4.9 is already considered stable since a couple of months but i didnt update to it. Why? Well a friend of mine did and told me that after the update there were quite some Movies missing i his Database. And thats something i litarilly hate, if something gets worse with an update.

So i waited, because he told me: next time its your turn to test, and rollback if something doesnt work etc.

So i waited till today and made the upgrade. On the firts glance everything looks fine but than i scanned my library, and turned out instead of 6043 Movies, which equals the count of Movie folders Emby returen 6000 Movie items. Fuck!

So Emby recognized the correct count of Folders, but not of Movies. Quick question on the Emby Forum returned: send some logs! Yeah great thanks for nothing.

So i searched myself and have seen that in the filter Settings for you can Filter for Duplicates, which return around 30 Movies which seem to have duplicates. The first was A Nightmare on Elm Street which should have 11 duplicates, no way! And hoestly that was not correct. A dont know how this duplicate detection works on Emby, but most of the time it fails. There were some real duplicates, which i than simply deleted on my NAS. For the false alarms there is a „Split Version“ Button if you scroll down deep enough on the Movies overview page. Now everything ist back to normal.
