The movie library cannot scan the Chinese folder - jmxs - 2024-11-20

The ftp directory has been added, there is a separate folder of movie resources in the directory, the folder is in Chinese, the movie library can not be searched, modified to an English folder can be searched, and added to the photo wall. Is there a way to fix this.

To receive meaningful assistance you will need to provide a full debug log.

The instructions are here... debug log (wiki)

If you are using the Basic Method, then ensure the following is applied...
1.Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging,
2.Restart Kodi
3.Replicate the problem.
4.Upload the log to Kodi Paste Site manually or use the Kodi Logfile Uploader. (wiki) With either method post the link to the log back here.

If you are using the Advanced Method ensure you have correctly created and applied the advancedsettings.xml file (wiki)

In both instances, you should see the word DEBUG throughout the log.

Note: Full logs only. No partial or redacted logs
Do NOT post your logs directly into the forum. Use the Kodi Paste Site. Post the link to your pasted log in the forum

Looks like a simple fix...

Delete the .nomedia file.

I'm sure I don't have the file in the directory, and the local scan library can be added to the movie library, FTP doesn't.   If you change the movie folder to an English name, FTP can also scan it

I don't have an ftp setup, but I just tested using smb, and it scraped correctly. Copied the folder/file name from your log and it scraped Let the bullets fly (2010). Hopefully that is the same movie.
Hopefully someone with an ftp setup can test.

Yes, SMB can grab Chinese folders normally.thanks.    I tried to read the log file, I don't know if the Chinese folder caused the path to automatically increase the character encoding, and the correct path could not be scanned.

I've had a search through the github Issue reports, as well as here on the forum. I haven't found any other report similar to yours.

Does this issue happen with this one movie only or multiple movies? Does it happen on this single Source only, or on multiple Sources.
In your log, was there only a single movie in that ftp: Source?

Can you provide a screenshot of your movie folder so we can clearly see all the files and their extensions. Make sure you have disabled Hide system files.
Also a screenshot of the ftp://172.16.151.25:21 folder

此问题是仅发生一个电影还是多个电影？它是仅发生在此单个 Source 上，还是发生在多个 Source 上。
在你的日志中，那个 ftp 中只有一个电影吗：Source？

您能否提供电影文件夹的屏幕截图，以便我们可以清楚地看到所有文件及其扩展名。确保您已禁用 Hide system files（隐藏系统文件）。
还有 ftp://172.16.151.25:21 文件夹的屏幕截图[/font]
1. I have tried to build an FTP server with a different computer, as long as the video folder name is Chinese, scan with mobile phone and TV Kodi, it cannot be added to the library, but scanning Chinese name episodes, it can be scanned.
2. My video directory has more than one video, all of them are classified in separate folders, once I change any folder name to non-Chinese, Kodi can scan and add it to the library

Each movie folder contains info.jpg.png.mkv files

I searched a lot of online resources, and now solved it in this way, and checked the use of UTF-8 on the Windows system.I'm using Windows IIS to build an FTP server, maybe the character encoding of Windows doesn't match Kodi somewhat
