I'm having the exact same issue. Up until about a week ago, whenever I copied a new movie or a fresh episode of a series into the library folder, Emby would pick it up automatically without any problems. Now, I added a brand-new episode, but Emby is completely ignoring it. I've already: Manually triggered a library scan multiple times Performed a "Scan Library Files" on that specific folder Restarted the Emby server Restarted the entire machine … and still nothing. It just won't detect the new file. Has there been a recent Emby update that might have broken something? Anyone else seeing this behavior lately? Thanks!

Collections are just a grouping. Like tags, or genres, or studios/networks, or playlists, etc. You will only the see the primary items in the group. You must enter one of those items to see its details view which will then show the extras, features, deleted scenes, etc which are related to that primary item. A collection itself doesn't understand the concept of extras.

Thanks for the kind words! Truly, that made me happy to read You are spot on with the AI, it is very useful but I absolutely don’t want to make it intrusive or give away sensitive information. You are correct regarding music and music videos. Nothing I use myself so I haven’t really thought about it. When this plugin has reach a mature state (which it almost is now) that might be a thing to add support for as well.

Is there a way to get the categories to display on the Firestick app, similar to how they do on the web app? when I click sort it lets me select categories, presumably to display, but the actual categories do not display and I just have a guide of ALL channels

You can't have extras in a collection, they must be assigned to a specific movie.

Sorry @Luke I was away for business and haven't had a lot of time to watch anything. One of the people on my server reported this week that they played a tv show episode, stopped it a few minutes before the end, started the next episode and then the subs stopped showing. Stopping playback didn't stop the payback. the video kept playing. Disconnecting from the chomecast and force quiting the emby app and reconnecting fixed it again. It was around 00:23 (cet) I hope this helps. embyserver-63909475201.txt ffmpeg-remux-d9da75e8-74c5-4e88-b151-a986a194ee32_1.txt ffmpeg-remux-c684374c-0b6e-4a34-8221-2c272a07f9f9_1.txt

I have this issue on my C5, but only with specific formats (1080p + DTS audio). I can play 4k DoVi / HDR + DTS-HD / Atmos etc. just fine. I've found that if i select playback correction within the player, this forces transcoding, which allows for playback, tho quality is lower due to the transcode. As stated by others, it is not a bandwidth issue and it is specific to the LG app. I have been switching over my Chromecast w/ GoogleTV, as it direct plays the file just fine in the instances the LG app will just freeze after ~5-10 seconds of playback. I had a similar issue on my old LG C2, but weirdly enough, I know I played the same video files without an issue on my C4 last year, but now they won't play on my C5 without playback correction, just like my old C2 did. Not sure if WebOS update broke, then fixed and then broke something or if it's some compatibility quirk of the C4.

Just switched to the Music Assistant beta branch just to try this out, and it's working great for me. Was worried it wouldn't work, as my Emby and HA/MA instances are not on the same network, but was able to point it via an IP and it all works flawlessly. Very happy with this, was plugging my laptop into my home AV set up every time I wanted to stream music from Emby, but now it's all cast-able from MA.

Putting the phone into Airplane mode will almost instantly dump you directly to "Select Server" / "Downloads" icon screen.

Ok .. thank you so much. Sorry to have bothered you all. regards Deirdre

I am signing up for emby! So excited!!

I made a test instance of Emby to have a look at the plugin, and I must say it is NICE. VERY NICE. Excellent work. Not really a fan of the AI craze but your ideas seems to be quite useful and non intrusive. Could be a nice addition to suggested videos. I must have over looked it, but the plugin does not seem to handle music videos at all. Did I miss something? I also have to say thanks for the detailed write ups. They have made the plugin easier to understand and also make your intent for each feature very clear. I, and I suspect others, are truly grateful for that. A Million thanks, LongMan

I'm still waiting for the plugin update to get into the catalog. It's idiotic to continue providing updates as dl in the forums while the version in the catalog is largely unusable..

Oooookay, Im betting that's probably why TL was part of the equation. I follow, yeah I think I may stick to your route since MOST of my library is as good as its gonna get by now, I dont expect the updated files will be terribly frequent. Thank you both!

No. Emby is currently not aware of the concept of "updated" item - it's either existing item or a new item. You can always save NFOs with media (and rename it accordingly upon "updated" movie file moved to relevant movie folder), so all metadata (including original Date Added which'll be honored ) will be preserved.

Ok, Im cool with all that. Whats done is done I suppose. Last question, and please know Im extremely grateful for the help.... If Radarr finds a better version OF THE SAME MOVIE already in Emby, is Emby able to realize that its not a "new" uploaded movie, just a revision, as it pertains to my library sort?

The idea would be integrating Emby into Duo, such that when a user signs in through duo they can access emby without signing in again.

Yes. But changes already made are irreversible (unless all those items removed and re-added).

Yes they should,

Hey Grim, thanks for the quick reply. I was aided in building my library/emby by family that has been doing Emby FOREVER. Perhaps it was how he prefers his library but until now I was too inexperienced to know I DIDNT want it doing that. So, moving forward, since I removed the Time Lord trigger, all NEWLY ADDED movies SHOULD present at the top when sorted, correct?

Old movies will still be set to what TimeLord set it to.

This it what this plugin does, it replaces you date added with release date.
