I have tried MusicBrainz, it re-wrote the metadata, still individual albums, I would really like to maintain Artist names if possible, The rest of my library is mostly all showing correctly, only a few issues where I had to change Artist/Album Artist. Soundtracks is the last hurdle

thats goona be alot of popcorn!

It works if entered explicitly as: https://emby.example.com Setup: -Emby Server version: 4.9.1.90 -Reverse proxy: NPMplus -Cloudflare proxy in front -Emby Network setting: Secure connection mode = Handled by reverse proxy -Public HTTPS port: 443 -External domain: emby.example.com Browser login works correctly through the reverse proxy. The NPMplus access log shows: POST /emby/Users/authenticatebyname ... 200 But Emby for Android TV / Android app fails login when the server is entered as a bare hostname. Initially, with Cloudflare Always Use HTTPS enabled, the login attempt appeared in the proxy log as: GET /emby/Users/AuthenticateByName?format=json ... 401 Cloudflare was returning a 301 HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect before the request reached NPMplus. I then disabled Cloudflare Always Use HTTPS and NPMplus Force SSL, and tested custom NPMplus redirects using 308 and 307. That changed the Android app request to: POST /emby/Users/AuthenticateByName?format=json ... 308 and then: POST /emby/Users/AuthenticateByName?format=json ... 307 but the app still failed to complete the login after the redirect. So the conclusion is that the Emby for Android TV app appears not to handle HTTP to HTTPS redirects correctly during the AuthenticateByName login flow when the server is entered as a bare hostname. It either converts the login request to GET after a 301 redirect, or fails to complete login after a 307/308 redirect. Expected behavior: -If a user enters a bare domain like emby.example.com, the app should either default to HTTPS, follow 307/308 redirects correctly, or warn the user to enter https:// explicitly. -The app should not fail with invalid username/password when the issue is actually HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect handling. The workaround is the basically typing https:// first. But it's a bit painful to try and guide my dad (nearly 65) to type https://. If i could just have him type emby.example.com that would be much easier, and maybe he could even remember it, lol.

TVDB does also lock wrong data sometimes... But usually because some people disagree. And their rules can be odd. I've just been watching a series that they insist is being broadcast a week later than I've been watching it! Paul

Thank you again , yes its ok now . This is the second time I haven't paid attention to manual.

This is the old classic RTM limit problem: There is a post on this forum that gives instructions on how to fix this, but all searches currently give me 0 results. A forced library scan should also make these avaliable (but not future additions). Found it:

Hi. If you are still running into this with the current app, please provide new logs. Thanks!

Wasn't there a thing called MusicBrainz Picard or something that could help cleaning up album names etc?

Hi, Any chance we can see this added? Thanks.

@UCM_1please check your PMs.

Message sent to my friend, tests should be done tomorrow, thanks!

I'll look into it! Have you made those collections using the plugin? If not - the plugin cannot update them on a scheduled basis. You have to use the Home Screen Companion plugin to create your collections for you, then it will auto update them. Regarding imports from ACdb i would recommend going to the equivalent MDBList and use that URL to create a collection. Not sayin you shouldn't use ACdb, just that it will work better for this plugin to use the MDBList url instead. (I beleve all list on ACdb are just another way to present lists that are already on MDBList) You will find the link to the corresponding MDBList here: EDIT: Add quick setup guide When you have the URL to the list on MDBList, do as below: 1 - Add new source 2 - Give it a name 3 - Select external list 4 - paste the MDBList URL 5 - Go to "Tag" tab, if you only are interested in the collection, you can deselect "apply tag" 6 - Collection tab, enable and give your collection a name. (you can also upload a poster image if you want to) 7 - Set up the home screen section to your liking (and selecting what users)

I just looked and no filters I can see. Verified this with three devices. TV (Roku), Laptop, and S26ULTRA..

@davidawarnerCan be something as simple as a filter you have enabled in the client? It sometimes fools me when i forget to remove it.

Not sure if this helps but the directory is: 10.190.39.5\Video\Music There is a combination of mpg and mp4 video files. I mentioned when I drop a new video and to another directory like my movies or if it's a music file emby's not picking it up. I have to actually search the files or the library metadata so that way it populates to the UI of MB Ideas?

Hi Luke, thanks. We coded a small VLCShim.exe and Emby Theater does launch it, but the shim receives zero parameters — no path, no URL, nothing. What parameter substitutions does Emby Theater support for external players? For example: %path% %url% %id% %arg1% -or- Does Emby Theater place values in a file somewhere ? If so location ? Can you provide an example of a working external player entry showing how Theater substitutes these values? Thanks in advance Jan

OK we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

Hi, where exactly are you looking for them?

Hi Luke, It’s working for me now with 2.2.54, thank you.

Hi, please try Emby for iOS 2.2.54 and let us know how things compare. Thanks.
