Many entries of the same movies are displaying

Hi,

I just installed Serviio onto a Windows 7 machine and all is running great so far except for one small problem. For certain movies, I'm getting multiple displays. For example, I have an MKV file of Avatar and it's showing up like 4 or 5 times; some movies are coming up 10 or more times. I noticed that this is mostly for MKV file as I have a mixture of AVI & MP4. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Thanks!

so when you go via Folders category, does it show 5 Avatar movies where there should be just one? And when you play then are they all really Avatar movies?

Sry don't have a solution for this problem, but working on it just wanted to reup the thread to see if anyone else still having these problems, and if anyone has come up with a solution yet. I'm having the same problem with some movies, the worst one seems to be not even a movie really "Family Guy 9x18 It's a Trap" shows up in the movie folder like 60 times as 175 mb files, when the file itself is 563 mb.

Does it appear in Folders once only? When you play the file is it really Family Guy 9x18 It's a Trap or is it some other movie?
What are your metadata settings in Serviio Console (Descriptive Metadata - what is the source).
Check the folder for any .nfo files.

ps. Isn't Family Guy 9x18 It's a Trap a series episode - doesn't it appear under the Series category?
