First remove search, favourites or hidden-category filters and confirm that you are in the intended live, film or series section. Refresh the playlist through the player’s normal control and allow loading to complete. An empty folder is different from a programme that appears but fails after playback begins.
Why it matters
A saved filter can hide valid entries, while a series folder may require another level of navigation. Source changes or a failed import can also affect a category without invalidating the entire account.
Work through the steps
- Clear the current search and review active category or favourites filters.
- Return to the main section and open the folder hierarchy again.
- Refresh the playlist once and compare another category after loading finishes.
What to avoid
