Hi,
I created a VIDEO folder via SMB where I share my WIN movies
automatically in the MOVIES folder there are only some of these movies and often with titles repeated many times and yet the file is only one
Can anyone clarify what this folder contains and why not all the movies are seen here?
Thanks

We have no crystal ball here. Please provide screenshots of the movies folders, and the debug log (wiki) of the scanning.

I try to download the log but I would like to know if in the movies folder there should be all the video files that I have in the VIDEO, thanks

I don't quite follow. You have a movies folder, you alone put movie videos in there, right?

Okay. Go into the Information page of each of these posters, and check the full path of the video. Chances are, all of them are different.
Also, show a screenshot of the folder listing for the Mafia movie. Which files are in there?

ok you are right they are all different movies with different paths inside a folder called MAFIA

donnje · 2022-03-03, 19:45

so shouldn't have I any subfolders?

Why are there different movies with different paths?

there are a subfolder

I'm done with this interrogation with no usable answers. Remember that crystal ball remark? Either you give full details on what you are trying to accomplish, or you can solve 5 Mafia video mystery yourself.

I don't understand what other information I haven't given?
actually as you say the 5 mafia files are all different but kodi I see it as one so I think I shouldn't have subfolders?

- Show a screenshot of the folder listing for the Mafia movie. Which files are in there?
- Why are there different movies with different folders/paths? Kodi does not create folders, you do.

I'm using a SMB then kodi by taking the files from the shared WIN folder "VIDEO" where there are subfolders inside eg. MAFIA and in the movies of that type, have I explained myself better?
