mnbf9rca 0 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 i'd like to recommend the following: in the task scheduler overview page, it would be good to see when each task is next scheduled to run, as well as when it was last run it would be good to be able to add a "once off" schedule. For example, if i've just done a big reorganisation, i might want to trigger a library scan sooner than the next scheduled item. Or, instead of a "once off" item, it would be good to have a "run now" button to force the task to execute immediately. is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 There is a run now button for scheduled tasks already. It is the little share icon to the right of of the scheduled task name. Used to be a more appropriate play icon but was changed a few versions back. At least the button appears in Chrome for Windows on a desktop. If you click on the task name, you can change its schedule. Pretty sure most tasks can be configured to show in your notifications list as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14910 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 It used to be a "play" symbol but was changed recently. What would you consider a "run" icon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnbf9rca 0 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 well, if a play button wasnt good enough, how about this: (from http://www.fontsaddict.com/icon/redo-arrow-of-circular-shape-with-half-line-broken.html) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 That looks like re-start, recycle or repeat to me. Honestly, I think the Play button was fairly self-explanatory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnbf9rca 0 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 why not a play button though? why was it changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was it changed? When i saw this button (i'm a relatively new Emby user) i had no idea what it was for - i thought perhaps for sending logs somewhere or applying this task to a specific data source or folder or something like that.
