pure quarry Feb 3, 2023, 2:33 PM

#

#

I have a similar issue. I have an windows shared folder mounted to my Ubuntu machine. Plex and ErsatzTV are using the same path but anytime I try to play the files it has a file not found error.

#

In my case this is the docker command

#

docker run -d
--name ersatztv
-e TZ=America/New_York
-p 8409:8409
--volume /home/plexadmin/ersatztv:/root/.local/share/ersatztv
--volume /media/share:/media/share:ro
--restart unless-stopped
--device /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128
--device /dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card0
jasongdove/ersatztv:latest-vaapi

#

Inside /media/share are my two mounted folders.

#

look at the folder layout requirements for each library type you are adding https://ersatztv.org/user-guide/local-libraries/

#

e.g. ```The Movies library requires movie subfolders. The following is a (non-exhaustive) list of valid locations for movies:

Movie (1999)\Movie (1999).mkv
Movie\Movie.mkv```

I did with tv shows , like this folder monsters (1990), then Season 01 , Season 02 folders and its no detected. Also I try with other videos same. If I move to local server Linux runs fine

#

about movies if i have 20 movies it need be 20 folders for each?

young pendant Feb 5, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

every movie requires its own folder, yes

pure quarry Feb 5, 2023, 4:31 PM

#

i just try and yes its detected, but i have a folder with mp3 files, on smb those are detected but ersatztv use just one cover for all songs, like cover for one songs its for all, but on linux folder its fine

#

i have shows

#

Show (1999)\Season 01\Show - S01E01.mp4
Show\Season 1\Show - s1e1.mp4
Show\Season 1\Episode 1\Show - s1e1.mp4

#

like this one

#

#

#

and its not showing on tv shows

young pendant Feb 5, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

add the parent folder, not the show folder

pure quarry Feb 5, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

/mnt/volume3/video/Tv Show/

#

like this?

young pendant Feb 5, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

yes

pure quarry Feb 5, 2023, 4:54 PM

#

still no detected i have severeal shows there like 40 maybe.

young pendant Feb 5, 2023, 4:57 PM

#

you didnt change the path

#

remove justice league from the library, and add the parent

pure quarry Feb 5, 2023, 5:12 PM

#

if works sorry too dumb

#

but yea structure make it work

#

i have more folders there but others are no detected i suppose need be like structure for those

#

other videos , and songs need be like this too? or can be full path

young pendant Feb 5, 2023, 5:15 PM

#

this page has requirements/examples for each library type https://ersatztv.org/user-guide/local-libraries/

i dont have albums just a mix of songs, i was getting issue where all songs get same cover when all files have a different one, but using like this
Rock\Awesome Band\Awesome Album\01 Track 1.flac
Rock\Awesome Band\Better Album\05 Track 5.flac
now its detecting each cover
