Hmm I also see this TranscodeReasons=ContainerBitrateExceedsLimit Can you try setting the client bitrate higher, not sure what you have set that to.

What happens if you select AC3 sound track before start of play? instead of DTS. Its can also be the shear numbers of PGS subs in that file, it has 35 of them. And it has 10 differrent audio tracks. I would make a copy of the movie file, and remux all track out that you don't need. And see if that helps.

Ok sorry to hear that. Devs will need logs from that attempt also

OK, it works! However, at least for QNAP, both PlayedFromPlex.dll & meta.json had to be in %ProgramData%\Emby-Server\plugins, not a subdirectory. I was unable to see my friends (other Plex accounts with Library access). Will that be possible at some point? I was running watchstate in a docker container on my QNAP until now and this is a great replacement! edit: I set the files to `666` to match the others in the `Plugins` directory.

Hey Neminem, thanks for the suggestion. I switched HEVC video encoding off and saved the change. Tried playing Skyfall again afterwards, but no dice unfortunately - the same behavior is displayed.

Purpose and Function Recommend media to 1 or more recipients (recipients the admin has given you access to). Recommendations are checked for unwatched then added to a user dedicated 'recommendation collection' Admin send Recommendation access model - Everyone, No One (default), Named Users, Group Membership. Configurable default New User behaviour (send policy, group membership). Configurable collection naming. Admin server wide media type control. User (and optionally admin) controlled recommendation receive preferences. Toast notification of recommendations. Historical event view of recommendations. Watched Medias are removed from a user's recommendation collection on event and scheduled task. learn to spell the word 'recommend' Getting Started Establish your preferred collection naming syntax. Give users access to make recomendations to other users. Use the user facing UI under the profile picture (only available on a web client) to make a reccomendation. Review the "Collection" library for users' recomendation collections. If you have existing recommendation collections and you name them as per your policy they will be subsumed into the ecosystem (added to not replaced) RecommendMe.mp4 Disclaimers Vibe coded with Claude, backup database before 1st use, until tested. (Collections are individually targetted for adding individual members) Download https://github.com/ginjaninja1/recommendme Assume version changes require deletion of \data\RecommendMe ie a hard reset during early builds at least. 0.1.0.1RecommendMe.dll 0.1.0.0RecommendMe.dll Changes 0.1.0.1 Task catalogue correction Known issues Issues and Suggestions Welcome. Roadmap Add indexing flavour text to all media items (eg Year, MediaType, Library) if Collections ever got an access model, implement that. Implement most recent N mediaitems/images on collection collages agressively on change. Store realtime notification for delivery when target user is online (improve chance of them seeing notification). Prevent ability to recomend what the target does not have access to (they wont see the items now (emby's access model wins), but they can show up in the report) Other Info Plugin stores data in \programdata\data\recommendme(good to know if you want to reset/uninstall)

Thanks for sharing. ...I'm using a QNAP NAS and will happily share how it works on it.

Than you for the response.

Totally understand - that's why I was trying to offer another perspective. I only stated that I'm new to show that I do not have a personal connection with anyone in this thread i.e. my take was independent. I was genuinely looking forward to trying out your plugin so hope you decide to release it at some point.

Hi, I would suggest posting this in the topic for the plugin to ensure that the developer will see it. Thanks.

Emby Version: 4.0.5.0 OS: Win 11 The Task for Calculating the Stats for TV Shows fails with the following infos: Laufzeit: 9 seconds One or more errors occurred.

Thanks

The setting I mentioned is in your user display preferences. It is not under collections and is only used in a TV series.

can you please provide more detail? how are your files organized? how many emby libraries have you created, and what are the folders added to each one? You must have something setup as movies.

I right clicked the file, edit metadata, and where the box for themoviedb, the appropriate ID is there. Iam then clicking the little box off to the right and it links to the wrong area/movie. Also when you import the metadata using that info instead of linking it to the appropriate show it will fill in the metadata for the movie it links to on the site instead. If you look at the url of the site there is a /movie section and a /tv section. It links to the wrong section. ALF_S01E01_Pilot.mkv Library option is set to TV Show

Its the same setting under all of my other collections but for some reason only the one I listed it bunches them up.

please show the complete screenshot so that I can see context. When you show that little cutout of the metadata editor, I can't tell what you clicked on, how you got there, etc. That means Emby has detected it as a movie based on your library options and file naming. how are your files named and organized? what did you configure as the content type of the library?

I found that directly adding the parent directory of BDMV to the media library, although it cannot scrape properly, can read the media information of m2ts files under BDMV/STREAM/ and play them. I'm not sure if it will be helpful in solving the problem.

You don't need to read it, you just need to see that it's a pink circle.

If you look at the images, when you input the correct info, it takes you to the /movies section of the site and the wrong movie. It should be linking to the /tv section. Shouldn’t also offer the TVDB?

What exactly makes you think it won't let you create a 7th? But probably more importantly, why go to all the trouble of creating collections for seasons? You already have the season groupings under the series.

I apologize I keep adding to this, just trying to get firm understandings of things before I forget. When adding collections under a library, any of my tv shows with more than 6 seasons it won’t let me create a 7th. I select the videos, create s new collection and it sticks the videos under another collection instead. Just like in the image attached, for some reason it won’t let me create a library for the last season.

Before anyone would test this we would need more information, screenshots or even a video maybe?

@sa2000are you able to reproduce?

on the video i use this show for example, and it's same across all my tv shows folder
