Thanks, Amet! I'm starting over with this share...

SMB://nameofmyserver/USERS/PUBLIC/VIDEOS/TV/

The name for the media source is TV

The folder contains single view is off
Exclude path from library is off
THE TVDB is highlighted
In file view I see icons for each shows folder, but the first folder's contents show meta posters of episodes of VaranTV. In long click/TV Show Information it offers the correct name. I select that. It's runs some kind of quick routine. At the home TV Shows screen it shows just 7 episodes of Varan TV. In TV shows its displays just VaranTV. Episodes 14(1).

Ran update library a few times, no change. Back to Video Files I see folder icons for each series still, but the folder contents are corrupt, showing metadata (with episode images) of VaranTV.

Removing Source for the "TV" share again to try again, this time checking Exclude Path from Libray Updates. Long press "Scan for new content" (I forgot that last time!!!).

Dang! Everything now looks perfect!

I'm thinking now that I confused Update Library with Scan for new Content??? Or did I need Eclude Path?
Is this user error? Be honest with me :)

When I look close at a library update I still see the word VaranTV fly by, but nothing seems corrupted... Yet.

The key will be what happens when a new tv show is added. I'll try to test that soon.

Just tried adding a show. Good news, no VarantTV error, bad news it didn't find it at all, even after update library. I can see an icon for it Files TV but there's nothing in the TV Shows home screen or inside TV Shows.

Plex and Infuse found and assigned all proper metadata. :x

Hehe, you seem to be only one with this issue :))

Is it always the same show that fails? Or is it any show?

Could you test by renaming that /tv/ folder to tvshows, just for interest sake. I am away from dev environment for next 36-48 hours so I can't test and reproduce

The issue happens regardless of the show. Just changed the tv folder name to tv shows, and it still didn't find the newly added show. So...

I deleted ALL my shares to start over. Now I go to Files, Add Video, Browse, (SMB) I go to select Workgroup (in my case) and in 2-3 seconds I get "Error, Operation Timed Out" I rebooted the server and the MrMC. SMB share in Infuse is working fine.

I'll try again later.

Sigh.

Thanks, I sent it by email. I believe the log shows SMB as busy? The log should also show changing the folder name to tvshows.

No sure if this helps, but I just tested 2 other tvOS apps that use SMB shares. All were able to get past the Workgroup directory and share files. And of course I never had a problem until I removed my movies and TV shares yesterday. Also, Kodi on my fire stick CAN access the Workgroup directory. MrMc iOS and tvOS are the only ones failing since yesterday.

something is strange, the logs don't show and smb errors, they don't show the change from tv to tvshows.

it's a pain but I suggest remove mrmc, install again, enable debug, add only source to tv, scan. the pull the log and email it.
