I have 2 movies.

The Pink Panther.

One is from 1963 and the other from 2006.

Mezzmo only detects the first one and adding this to my library.

I did a full "Maintain Playlist" with all attributes ot update and it took
a few minutes for all playlists to be updated..

yet the 2nd "The Pink Panther" doesn't show up in any of my playlists.

I have an "all files" playlist literally showing all files and there both files
are reported.

With different "Album/Series"
but one of them is still not being shown neither in the "Movies"
nor in the "collections" List.

sorry very weird for me..

It's there, Mezzmo scanned and added it obviously since it's in the "all files" list
but the playlists skip the 2nd one.

Check the properties of the 2nd Pink Panther in Mezzmo to see if the Categories includes Movie.

Ahhhhh, well it says Movie but you gave me a lead and found the issue.

it has the genre "Family" and everything which is rated for kids I have in a separated playlist.

The issue is I use the https://www.themoviedb.org as source for all my videos
and obviously in their collections they have some movies with different genres!!

Instead of writing the same genre for the whole collection and then use this for all the movies in the collection..


I think I have to write to https://www.themoviedb.org to get this sorted out as it's really stupid they have
a collection and inside that collection movies of different genre.

But I already know what they are going to say:"well Sir, that's how it is!" :)

I can try nonetheless right? :)

Anyway, thanks for the help. You pushed me in the right direction.
