hi guys,

currently using ember media manager and finding it great
however ive currently moved over to using library mode as it looks alot neater
since moving over to library mode some movies are duplicates

i checked the movie folder, there are no dupes in there
i tried to update library and clean library, dupes are still there

not sure what other options i have?

although i have noticed that on the duped items, one shows the media type:

ie. SD , DIVX , MP3, 16.9

but the dupe of it doesnt?

the dupe still shows the plot etc and plays, anyone have an explanation for this? or experienced it and know how to get rid

you know what guys right after posting i realised what it was!

here goes:

when i click my movie i noticed one one directed to a .divx (or whatever movie type it is)
the dupe was pointing to a .dat in the same folder for some reason?

i delete the .dat, settings > clean library, right click movies update library and hey presto!

hope this post helps others in the future
regards

Lemme guess. ~uTorrentPartFile.dat ? Wink

If so, backlist it via advancedsettings.xml

Code:
<advancedsettings>
  <video>
    <excludefromscan action="append">
      <regexp>(~uTorrentPartFile)</regexp>
    </excludefromscan>
    <excludefromlisting action="append">
      <regexp>(~uTorrentPartFile)</regexp>
    </excludefromlisting>
  </video>
</advancedsettings>
