I set up smart playlists for specific actors (as all actors is way too many), and had everything working fine for months. As of about a month ago all of these custom smart playlists started showing empty folders and -1 items. I'm not sure what may have changed.

They are very simple setups. Here's an example of the properties used:

Match all of the following rules.

Artist/Actors contains Adam Sandler.

Restrict to video files.

Sort by title (ascending).

No limit set.


Why am I suddenly seeing -1 items and empty folders? Default smart playlists work fine, e.g. Recently Added.


Thanks for your help
