strange issue on rescrape/manual db update.

I have several different network locations for files. I decided to move several shows from one location to another, essentially the V drive to the T drive but I think they are seen as NSA325\others\torrents\tvshowname to NSA320\others 2\torrents\tvshowname.

Shows that showed up fine before like 12 monkeys and 24 live another day used to show up, but when moved/deleted from db and then rescanned the new location, they do not show up in the list. But Falling Skies which was also moved to the new location, does show up and when deleted it shows up again and again. Im wondering if its something to do with my network location changes or if its because they start with numbers or what? Im still trying to figure it out, but when I use the update DB for the new location, 12 monkeys and 24 live another day DO NOT EVER show up and Falling Skies does show up every time. I tried deleting from the DB faliing skies (rightclick, remove from database, delete) and it rescans it correctly every time, but does not ever pick up 12 monkeys or 24.

One codicil I will mention is that a couple of locations of others. For example I have some tvshows in a location others 2 in NSA320\others 2\tvshowname
and some shows in torrents 2 location NSA320\others 2\torrents\tvshowname. I have this other places on the network and it has not been a major problem but just in case because one location is inside another, wanted to mention it.

Thanks in advance for your help. Also i tried both including and excluding the nsa320 location from automated DB updates, did not change behavior, also cleaned the DB a few times and tried restarting the program a few times and still will not detect at least those 2 shows. There might be more, still testing behaviors. I had no problem in the past wit the NSA325 location. Could it be because they are both in a folder named torrents? Maybe if I changed the name to torrents2 it might do something different, but have not tried that yet.

Sounds strange...

A tv show folder has always to be saved in the source you've configured, not in a subfolder of a source. That means:

//NSA320/others 2/torrents <=== Source
//NSA320/others 2/torrents/24 <=== is working
//NSA320/others 2/torrents/Action/24 <=== it does not work


Do you have setup some other settings in this area?

Sorry, Am very late getting back on this one...Because of my previous setup, I have sources within sources, but i think it was something more with the name than the source location. So using your example here is what I have, note the different drives 325 and 320

//NSA325/others/torrents/Breaking Bad <=== Source torrents - works which is /others/torrents
//NSA320/others 2/24 <=== source others 2-works which is /others 2
//NSA320/others 2/torrents/Better Call Saul <=====source torrents 2- which is /others 2/torrents does not work.

Note I have a similar setup another place and it works

//NSA325/Other Tv Series/Farscape <=== Source other tv series - works which is /Other Tv Series
//NSA325/Other Tv Series/Star Trek/Star Trek Enterprise <=== source Star Trek-works which is /Other Tv Series/Star Trek
//NSA325/Other TV Series/Star Trek/Star Trek Voyager <=====source Star Trek - works. /Other Tv Series/Star Trek

I know it is not ideal, this is how I had things configured long ago and just left them with switching over to EMM and added the extra sources. I should fix it someday, but the amount of waiting for it to replicate on all the drives I have backups and stripes and stuff has kept me from fixing it. Since it works fine in the star trek example, I was left thinking that maybe it had to do with both source directories being named "torrents" (even though they were both named differently as source, torrents and torrents 2)

All the other settings were okay. Just a weird thing....I temporarily worked around it by defining
//NSA320/others 2/torrents as X:/ and having X:/ as a source.
