missing some movies/not removing others when deleted

missing some movies/not removing others when deleted
If I delete movie from my samba mounted share then refresh it doesn't get removed from the display. Should it? Or do I need to clear before refreshing (takes longer but will remove it).
Also for some reason not every movie is picked up. First I noticed any directory with a : r ! in caused problems. I have things set up to create a directory for each title and then each movie in the directory. I needed to remove the : in the Lord of The Rings trilogy through kept it in the file name.
One that is missed is
directory name
2001- A Space Odyssey
file in directory
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).mpg

It will play with mxplayer directly. Any thoughts why?

Hi!

Content in your libraries will only be removed if you remove it manually or perform a library update while checking the "Remove unavailable files" option.

The second issue sounds rather weird. Nothing like that should be happening. Are you sure the movies don't appear in Unidentified movies?

If something's not working, it's probably my fault. Let me know.

Thanks, checking unavailable solved the deleted files perfectly

In my movies screen I don't have any unidentified movies, and it looks like 2001 A Space Odyssey is the only missing movie. Nothing different in any of the permissions.

Are there any log files I can look at?

Its a very nice piece of software!

Hey!

Can you send me the full path to the movie?

Ok, I know what is going on, the file name was
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).mpg

If I remove the : and make it
2001 A Space Odyssey (1968).mpg

it gets found and identified correctly. The odd thing was
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001).mpg
worked with or without the :

It definitely doesn't like a : in the directory name, so I just remove the tricky characters in my perl script in both directory and title and all is ok.

Not sure if you want to uncover why the : in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).mpg caused problems.

Hi James!

I definitely want to figure out why it didn't work, so I've created a specific issue for that here: https://github.com/MizzleDK/MizuuApp/issues/85

Thanks for finding this bug for me

to be clear - and I wasn't sure based upon your issue description - its special chars in the filename too (though not always) that prevents identification of movies
