I thought that maybe it don't like the manual input of source, so I try this

1. I add source, but this time I browse to \\NAS6\Public\Filer\_Film_o_Musik\_Filmer_TV-serier_RippadDVD-samling\Filmer
2. I let it import to 100%
3. I go to Videonav - Movies. Now I see movies! But only from the last source

Is \\192.168.222.247\Public\Etc the wrong format?

I really want to use IP-number, as my fail over system for my NASes use IP. So when one is on maintenance, the other use the same IP (but not the same name).

EDIT

In the log I can see that you've named your movie subtitle files in the following way:
Warm Bodies (2013) (Warm.Bodies.2013.(7.1ComedyHorrorRomance).BDRiP.MP3.XViD-SANTi.Swedish.srt

The movie is called Warm Bodies (2013) (Warm.Bodies.2013.(7.1ComedyHorrorRomance).BDRiP.MP3.XViD-SANTi.avi

Which format do your videos have?

I have avi, mkv and mp4

I don't think that this will work. It should have the same name, as the complete path information gets stored as the resource reference. However, experiment may beat theory - give it a try.

Some more strange things, when I browse media I see _Filmer (the source that has problems) say it has 65 media files

But when I click on _Filmer I only see 4 movies

The numbering display is not dynamically refreshed. If an import is running you won't see this number changing but instead leave the menu. The video screen will display files that have not been identified as movies. So this will change while the importer is active.

Once again, I think there is a basic problem. Referring to the logs not even one video files was imported, so no surprise, that nothing is shown in library view.
According to my understanding for each video file an entry like this should be available:
[2017-04-26 01:08:13,871] [1004969] [31 ] [INFO ] - Media item 0f79f542-6955-483f-974e-bdf6aec5c938 with name The Night Watchmen (2016) h264-1080p DTS-6ch (The Night Watchmen (2016) h264-1080p DTS-6ch.mkv) added/updated (3 ms)

Could you please explain the file and folder structure based on one video file.
E.g mine: \\HTPC-SERVER\Video\Movies\5 Flights Up (2014)\5 Flights Up (2014) h264-720p DTS-6ch.mkv
I have one folder for each video file and all items as subtitles are stored in the same folder.

Here are my latest movies in the folder \\192.168.222.247\Public\Filer\_Film_o_Musik\_Filmer

Thanks. I am not sure, if this really works. Can you try to place 2 movies into each a subfolder with the movie name. Somehow I think the import might work then.

Citing myself

So to nail this down I propose that you

• remove the share
• create a new subdirectory on your NAS
• copy one or two movies to this new subdirectory
• rename movies into the format name (year)
• define this subdirectory as a new share

I really, really, hope that will not be the solution as I have about 2500 movies in that folder Right now I have tried to remove my manual input of source, and instead I browsed to the folder. It is importing right now, so far 16%... And if I go to Brows media, there is already over 200 movies there.

How do I add a manual source the right way, so it works? I tried the \\192.168.222.247\Public\Etc format, but that don't seem to work.
