Excluding folders from media directory

Help & Support
1

Hi,

I’m running sonarr Ver. 2.0.0.2663 on my qnap 459 pro II. Qnap creates .@__thumb folders inside the show/season folder for his own thumbnails. The problem is, even when the .mkv shows are in the correct place sonarr still shows the files in .@__thumbs sometimes in the summary modal(when clicking an episode). This is wrong since it should show the normal video files in /Show_name/Season 01 instead of /Show_name/Season 01/.@__thumb. Is there any fix for this. For example to exclude all hidden folders (starting with a point).

Thank you in advance.

Whats the actual format? .@thumb or .@__thumb? Could you give a concrete example, we can exclude them, but I want to make sure we exclude it properly.

Exact folder name is: .@__thumb it contains jpg files but also mkv sometimes and even a folder called transcode sometimes.

I suggest to make an option to exclude all hidden folders(folders which contain a point as first character). Do you think that’s possible or do you have any other suggestion?

I guess this is fixed in https://github.com/Sonarr/Sonarr/commit/6054dd8ee6281126d20f3082ef6f9b6e8c322287

Thank you for this:) Is there any road map when this will be available in the master branch?

Not really, but we’re trying to keep updates a little faster than we did over the past few months. Ideally a week or two, but I can’t promise that.
