Hello all. True apologies. I tried to troubleshoot this myself.
I record OTA TV with Emby, then use MCEBuddy to convert, de-commercial, and move to a new directory. I record about 10 shows, and out of those, two conversions are failing to move to the new directory. All others work fine, and I cannot find any differences in the recording names or similar. Could use some help.

Since other files move, it is not a permissions problem.
Since a shorter file name does not move, and a longer one does, it is not a file length problem.
I have deleted the destination directory, but the folder is not recreated. I recreated the folder, and checked with the below error, and it is a valid directory.
Two of the programs I record, I get this error:

Do the same 2 files repeatedly fail to move (assuming you’ve tried to convert the failing files again) or do 2 random files fail to move at the end of the conversion ?
Do you have an antivirus installed or any other file monitoring software?
