Oracle 74 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Hey, I've seen others do this, so it has to be possible. Looking to sort TV shows into genre subfolders (i.e. Action, Reality, ETC) on the Emby TV Homescreen Display. They are already sorted by genre in my file system. Any help is appreciated & I thank you for it. - I forget what my name is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8138 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Well that would be creating a library for each genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle 74 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 And that would appear inside the "TV Series" folder that is already pre-existing on my home screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle 74 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 Hey again (I post way too much lol), Looking to create a subfolder amongst the genre folders that displays all of my TV content in the folder, but doesn't display it on the same page as the genre folders. My wife wants to be able to view all of the shows at one time, but I want to keep it so it's all sorted. #TryingToAccommodate! Is there a way to do this?

Happy2Play 8138 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Does 0-1-1 reside in the All folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle 74 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Yes, it does. However, it also resides in the action folder, so it can appear in there and the All folder, but then I run into the problem of duplicate episodes and the poster thumbnail still appears on the main page. EDIT: Poster goes away, still duplicate episodes. Not sure if that would just be fixed with a path redirection or what. Does 0-1-1 reside in the All folder?

Luke 36876 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 No, you'd end up with multiple TV libraries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Oracle 74 Posted August 1, 2018 Author Solution Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Found a way around this, a bit impractical but: I essentially made empty copies of each of the folders in my TV file system & put them under an "All" library which I then added in addition to the Genre libraries. Took a while to figure it all out and configure it all, but it does what I wanted it to do. Thanks for the assistance, folks. @Luke Edited August 1, 2018 by SPRINKLES-PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
