So in the library for Audio books, there are folders (subs) for authors, there is one for "Various Artists" (listed as VA) and this in the Audio book library has music, and then vice versa in the Music library.

OK we are looking into this. Thanks.

Hi, what do you mean by sub?

HI, are you still having an issue with this?

Emby server already supports sending webhooks to urls based on various events. The wording of that makes it sound like they are going to support the formatting of our webhooks payloads.

Thanks for the interesting, and promising info. That order of home screen rows thing sounds like the kind of thing that'll confuse me at some point, than I'll ask about it having forgotten what you've written above. As in typical me...

@spiller37are you still having an issue with this?

Hello TheMattman0425, ** This is an auto reply ** Please wait for someone from staff support or our members to reply to you. It's recommended to provide more info, as it explain in this thread: Thank you. Emby Team

I have created two libraries, one for audio books, the other for music. The source folders are one the same drive, but in completely separate folders . The audio book library has only the audio book's folder, while the music library has only the music folder associated. But, the audio book library has a "Various Artists" sub and plays music from the music folder. Why did this happen? How can I resolve this? And I have just discovered that some audio books are in the music library.

Not that we know of, but you could test that from your server machine, right?

you can't use the delete function on top level folders. you have to go through emby library setup.

looks like it's on a different channel than the one you configured. see how the names are different.

Both actually. The top-list is a way to get the correct order, but i never really intended it to be used as the "standard way" to create a home section. For me it was about one or two sections/rows with numbered posters for "top 10 movies today". Keep in mind that the top-list creates another library and is kind of a workaround for some missing Emby features. Not that it's bad and you could have a shit ton of libraries, but that's not the way i intended when building the feature. But hey, if i works for you the go ahead! If we are using tags to create a home section, the only way we could determine the sort order is to use some of Embys ways to sort: added date, name, sort name (might be some more) and this is for both movies and shows. Hope i answered your question

Not sure how to force close the app on LG TV? It happened after the TV has been off for nearly 24h though.

via the api endpoint: DELETE /Items/{Id} this is not a current problem for me anymore as for those handful i simply created the paths the server was failing to delete from the db, did the delete API calls, and then deleted the folders but a report on the bug in the delete api that prevented me from using it.

and how are you trying to delete it?

Here is the command I used to upgrade sudo dpkg -i emby-server-deb_4.10.0.40_amd64.deb I checked Emby with the admin account and didn't see any media, then I rebooted, still didn't see any media. Then I checked my mount points and everything was fine, so I started a rescan. The rescan took a couple hours at least before anything showed up my libraries. Next, I checked my playlist, none of them were populated even for users who don't have restrictions. I refreshed metadata on each playlist and that seemed to fix the issue for the unrestricted users. At this point my restricted users were not seeing any library files or having anything populate for their playlists and at this point I realized the permissions were gone. Once I changed the permissions the media files started showing back up in the correct playlists and library for the restricted users. The Albums section is still blank but that's a separate and ongoing issue. I'm assuming there was a lot of disk activity, but I didn't notice it perse, the media is hosted on a NAS so I don't necessarily notice high disk activity. Let me know what you think. HS

I just uploaded 2.8.9.4. See if that one helps.

yes, think /movie to /movies

And now I can't turn EHS off, because there's no way to navigate to that option? PXL_20260921_194657272.TS.mp4

ok so you renamed the top level folder?

can you force close the app and test again?

Spotlight now displays the old way if EHS is on, and EHS works....but why can't this be applied to the full screen spotlight as well?

Ah ok, then I agree that it's probably not worth to gobally alter emby functionality just to get the this feature. Do I understand it correctly, that the issue with altering the "added date" or "sort name" is regarding the series? Because for the movies it works with the top list already if I'm not mistaken. That would be great! Right now I'm not using it for the movies either, because I want the look for the movies and series trending list to be the same.

Most of the spotlight bugs are resolved, but each slide still hangs around for way too long and it would be better to replace the redundant right arrow button with the button to show the context menu. The issue with long pressing the info button in the spotlight persists.
