TV Shows - Season 0 episodes and specials being put into the same folder
jmsaxman posted a topic in General/Windows
I'm relatively new to Emby, but I've been extremely impressed with it so far One issue I've been trying to figure out how to address is TV shows that legitimately have a season 0, such as MST3K. I'm finding that all of the season 0 episodes are getting put into the same display folder with the various specials that I have in my collection, and that folder is called "Specials". I have all of my season 0 episodes in a subdirectory called "Season 0", and all of the specials in a separate subdirectory called "Specials". I've also tested enabling and disabling the "Display specials within the season they aired in" advanced library option with no change in behavior. I've also started editing the metadata for the specials to ensure that the season listed is null instead of 0, but this also doesn't seem to be changing the behavior so far. Is there anything else I can do to display the season 0 episodes (for MST3K, these are also sometimes referred to as the KTMA episodes or the Season K episodes) separately from the specials? I'm running Emby Server 4.5.4.0 on Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS. -
Hello. I'm actually running an Emby server on my Lubuntu laptop with a VPN always on. So with all the device i connect remotely, with the TV too. I was wondering if I watch live TV on the TV (without VPN because my TV doesn't have any softwere to do it, but still the VPN is on on the laptop/server) is safe? I mean do i "send" the ip of the server to the providers or the ip of the television? Do I have to turn on VPN on all devices I want to see live TV on to be safe and mask my ip or my server with his VPN mask already. It maybe is a super dumb question, I know.

Updating EPG and remapping new channels does not show up on Emby?
embyzone posted a topic in Live TV
Hi All I cant seem to get the new channels to my Emby server? (I even removed the tuner but then I couldn't make it recognize the HDHomerun plugin from the enigma2 sat box?, So luckily I had a backup I could restore Emby back) The EPG by XML is loading fine! And the mapping to the new channels are done in Emby also fine! I mapped 48 channels in total: But the Guide is not refreshed with any of the new channels? Can anyone tell me what files to delete to force a udate? The TV channels are in the right order and play perfectly! But all icons are wrong? and all of the TV guide info is wrong... Update it looks like it doesn't update after my re-mappings of all the channels? Refreshing the guide doesn't help either

How do I re-order a multi-season TV series to match DVD (or other) order?
ShoutingMan posted a topic in General/Windows
How do I re-order a multi-season TV series to match its DVD or other non-aired ordering? I know how to re-order a single season like Firefly: lock metadata, then manually edit Season and Episode numbers. That doesn't work for multiple seasons. I'm trying to get Futurama into either theTVDB's or Wikipedia's (which uses The Infosphere's) ordering. The problem is that a TV-season contains episodes spanning two, three, maybe four DVD-seasons. Altering editing the metadata season and episode values, there are unexpected side effects. You get a new mixture of the episodes with their revised ordering but in their original season. And then you get the re-ordered episodes for that season. Here's two images to illustrate: Futurama S1: Everything's ok here. There are four episodes pulled in from season 2 to complete season 1. The ordering looks good. Futurama S2: The multi-season side effects appear. The four episodes originally in Season 2 that were revised to be in Season 1, appear with their S1 metadata in the beginning of S2. And then the correctly revised S2 list follows. Let jump to Futurama S4: Now the season listing is preceded with 9 episodes from the aired Season 3 that were revised to fall into other Seasons. Season 5 is especially screwy since "Season 5" according to the Wikipedia ordering are the Made-for-TV movies, which are filenamed and stored in Season 00 (Specials) to conform to theTVDB listing to try and get metadata. What metadata do I need to edit and how do I edit it to force Emby to conform to the desired season listing? I'm open to revising NFO files, video filenames, etc. I accept that Emby doesn't support DVD-ordering automatically. And it doesn't have the Reordering Agent that Plex does. But I'm looking for a solution and willing to try the manual editing, if necessary. Thanks!

Hey fellas, I've had a working Emby setup for a long time. Just from my TV to my server, same LAN. Updated my Sony TV, and now emby does not work. No pin gets displayed, and entering the IP does nothing. Reset TV, reinstalled Emby, works fine on my windows devices. Reset Wifi, etc. My background is IT/Cybersecurity so hopefully I'm not being a huge goof and missing something. Cheers.

Maybe I'm just not seeing the correct set of options, but here's the issue I'm dealing with: A user wants to watch all of the "Arrowverse" shows, which include Arrow, Flash, Supergirl and Legends. At several points in those series, they overlap and cross-over. So the order in which the episodes should be watched is based on the premiere dates of episodes in ALL of these series, not just one of them. (It occurs to me that another historical example would Buffy and Angel...) At first glance, it seems this calls for the introduction of something similar to the Collections in Movies, so that related series can be identified, and the "Play All" option would switch between series as needed to view content in the correct order. Am I wrong? Thanks for all the great work so far!

I'm currently dealing with the cartoon Animaniacs. Because of the way the TVDB lists this how, I have each episode split into segments. I have two questions based on this and hopefully one of them is possible: 1. Is it possible in emby to have these segments combined? For example TVDB EP 1,2 & 3 is actually S01E01 .. I think Plex calls this stacked naming 2. How flexible is emby with multi episode naming? If I were to combine these segments into full episodes, it would be based on the Wikipedia / IMDB lists. The problem with this is that the order doesn't correctly line up with TVDB (TMDB is the same). For example S01E27 in Wikipedia is made up of 3 segments (1,2,3). However the order in TVDB is different and would mean that the segment with the end credits would be in the middle (2,3,1) So for me to join the into 1 file in the correct order & have the metadata pulled from TVDB in the correct order I would need to name the file weirdly - like S01E66-65-64 Does emby support something like this or am I just going to have to live with having the wrong name / description order for some episodes?

Unsure if this has been mentioned before but during playback while casting from android phone when I need to fast forward or rewind sometimes it starts the movie or TV show over. Was wondering if others sometimes had the same issue? I noticed if I click rewind once and let it load it seems to mostly be fine. But not always. Also if I double click fast forward or rewind, this seems to be a way to get your progress erased. But also not always.

Emby Server 4.5.0.23 Ubuntu Server 20.04.1 TV show library has decided that Season 4 of Scrubs mostly doesn't exist, except episode 4. These files are very much present, permissions are good, Emby can write to the directory, and it's even indexing things; populating .nfo files in-directory fine. Things I've tried: Removing directory from server, deleting everything but the .avi files, converting said .avis to h264 MP4s with AAC audio, refreshing library, moving folder back to server with a different name (Season 4, rather than Season 04), and rescanning, did not help. Moved folder, hosed metadata for season, deleted everything but the MP4s, renaming folder back to "Season 04", moving it back to server. Did not help, same situation. At this point, I'd be fine with just filling in the path to each of these files by hand if it helps, but can't find a way to do so from the metadata manager or the like. I am not having any problems with any other series, and there are hundreds up there, all working fine. Any suggestions?

Hi, I like watch k-dramas, c-dramas etc. Some dramas I can not find in themoviedb or tvdb to grab the metadata, specially the backgrounds and covers. Would be nice to have https://mydramalist.com/ as source of information. Thanks

Python script for automating Youtube-DL to a TV library
mrb002 posted a topic in Tools and Utilities
hello all, i just started learning python and wrote a script that (using youtbe-dl) takes a list of youtube channels/playlists and downloads the vids, renames them to emby's tv library naming standards, moves them into your emby library. once emby has generated NFO files for them, the script will also insert the aired date and year for each episode based on the date the video was uploaded. as i'm not great at python, i was wondering if some folks who are that might be interested in using this script would mind taking it and playing with it. i feel like with some tweaking, it could be of more use to the broader emby community. just post here or PM me and i'll send you the script with the instructions on how to use. i dont want to post it publicly yet incase theres some huge bug. don't want to ruin anyones library EDIT: sorry for the long delay, life got crazy. attached is the script and instructions. ytd_20200724_public.zip- 7 replies

This is a weird one. TV shows- no matter how many times I rescan it, do not show all the seasons for any TV series I have. You can see the number of unplayed episodes but it simply doesn't list the seasons. It does this with all my tv shows. Take for example 30 rock. I have all the seasons and episodes available, and emby clearly sees the episodes as it shows 135 unplayed. However if you open it up, it shows season 7 available and then shows the season 1 episodes for 'next up'. Is there a setting I've totally missed or is there something I'm not doing correctly? I've rescanned and re-added my library paths multiple times. It does this for every single tv series I have. It either shows one random season or none. The weird thing was for a long time I unknowingly had tv shows as "Mixed Content" and it wasn't until I changed it to TV Shows that this problem occurred. Any help is very appreciated.

Hi, I wasn't sure where to put this comment. I just set up emby after being on Plex for many years and joined premiere. My server is set up on a new win 10 drive and plays perfectly from my shield hooked up to that PC. Problem is all of the wifi firesticks in the house will not play the tv shows. They are all named properly and in folders. There is no problem playing movies. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi All, The recent upgrade to 4.3.3 states "Performance improvement to TV guide', But I am not seeing anything on my setup. My setup is Andriod TV on an Nvidia Shield, connecting directly to a Synology NAS via managed hub on the same VLAN. The NAS runs the Emby Server which also connects to a HD Homerun Quattro, also on the same hub and VLAN. My issue is with scrolling through the TV guide If you scroll through the guide with the BBC channel highlighted, I can scroll forward through programmes for weeks, no problem. But if if I select another channel to be highlighted such as ITV2+1, it will scroll up to 10pm that day then screw up the whole guide with "<No programme Data Available>". Yet if I use the calendar to select a future date, all works fine. So scrolling on certain channels is broken for me Any ideas ?

How do I name the folder tree for Planet Earth II? Currently, Emby don't recognize it but Plex does, so does add the metadata as well. This is my format so far: Planet Earth II Season 1 Planet Earth II - S01E01 - Islands.mkv Planet.Earth.II - S01E02 - Mountains.mkv .... and so on. Also, I tried Planet Earth II Planet Earth II - S01E01 - Islands.mkv Planet.Earth.II - S01E02 - Mountains.mkv Both work fine with Plex but not Emby.

Samsung Model: UN48H8000 Samsung Firmware Version: 1400 Samsung Emby Client version: 0.122 Hello, At or around the time Emby Server updated to 4.2.2.0, episode listings disappeared when using Emby via Samsung TV. It continues to work properly when using Emby via Chrome browser. I am fairly confident that folder structure and episode naming are correct as prior to the update mentioned it was working without issues on all devices. I initiate the Emby app on the Samsung TV. I then select "TV Shows" and get the listing of shows, as expected and as intended. I select a show and am brought to the screen with the show summary, the "Up Next" list, and the individual season "icons", again as usual and as expected. I then select a season, and am presented with a screen that only shows the show image/icon in the top left and options for "Play All" and "Shuffle". Below that the rest of the screen is blank. This blank portion of the screen is where I would normally see the episodes listed. I have tried several things, none of which has made any diffrerence: - I have deleted entire shows and re-uploaded them using same and different folder structures - I have run the full-scan of the library - I have deleted and re-installed the Emby app on the Samsung TV - I have shut down Emby and re-started the NAS, then re-started Emby Please let me know if you require additional information or if you have any questions. Thank you

So a kinda unique problem for this series and I would like to know how some of you might have solved it. Twin Peaks has the "Log Lady Intros" for each episode which where added afterwards but are now considered as essential. On the Bluray you can choose to watch the episodes with or without them, which of course doesn't work with emby. I have the intros and episodes as separate mkvs. I tried merging them with mkvtool but that only works when both have the same track layout. The intros only come in stereo, while the series also has a new 7.1 mix. Using stereo only I can merge the two and afterwards add the 7.1 mix with a delay. But then I would have to remember to switch audio tracks while watching. Considering all the remuxing it's kinda inconvenient. It would have been nice if 'TV shows' in emby had support for 'parts' like with movies. Then that would have been easy. But I understand why that's a very niche use case. So the only other solution I came up with, would be adding the intros to specials and creating a playlist. Any other ideas?

APP EMBY on Amazon Fire TV Stick - Basic -->No Trailer????
wonderfulman1 posted a topic in Android TV / Fire TV
Hello, I bought the Amazon USB / HDMI dongle, the Amazon Fire Stick - Basic. (Https://www.amazon.com/Fire-Stick-Basic-International-Version/dp/B01ETRGE7M/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1534066629&sr=8-11&keywords=fire+stick) It is an excellent product and I highly recommend it to everyone. I then downloaded the "Emby for Fire TV" app and PAY IT for to use it and to give you support. It works very well, however I would like to ask you if it is possible to insert the possibility to see the trailers (because I have not been able to use them) as you can do with the pc browser version of your program / server. I remain available for information about it and thank you for any reports / suggestions. -
A recent update (assuming it was a Server Update) changed the way Multiple-Level Folders display. To explain what I mean....... For Example: I have 5 Batman TV-Series. Each Series has multiple Seasons. I placed the 5 Series under a "Collections" Folder. So the folder structure would look like the following: -BATMAN COLLECTION -Batman Adventures -Season 1 -Season 2 -Batman Beyond -Season 1 -Season 2 -Batman Adventures -Season 1 -Season 2 etc....... SO, when scrolling through my TV Series the Top-Level folder I see is BATMAN COLLECTION. I select this folder and I see Batman Adventure, Batman Beyond, Batman Adventures, etc... If I select Batman Adventures I used to see Season 1, Season 2, Season 3 etc... Then when selecting a Season I would see each episode. That was before, now when I select a Series (Batman Adventures) I see ALL Episodes and not each Season displayed. I haven't made any setting changes in quite some time, so I am assuming this is due to an update?? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks - John.

Hey Guys, I have recently installed the Emby app to my Amazon TV. Really love this after being an Emby WMC for many years and finally finding an alternative to PC based Emby. One thing I am having a problem with is episode in my tv seasons. They are not showing the episodes correctly. They are showing a combination of letters and numbers. Yet in the season folder they are showing as episodes correctly. Any ideas how I can resolve this please? Added server log and some screen captures. embyserver-63713260800.txt

Please add the Filter feature for the Smart TV app (Roku) to be able to show all movies in ascending/descending order of recently added, release date, etc. like how the website display has. If I add more than 20 movies at a time, the excess amount do not get displayed on the Smart TV app as it currently stands.

When I try to send a message to a device it works for laptop/PC devices using the website but it does not work for a Smart TV (Roku). I've literally stood in front of the TV and from my phone sent a message to the Smart TV client and it did not come up on the screen while a movie was playing. This send message to device feature does work on Android Emby App (smart phone) and laptop/PC using the website. I am not certain if it works for Apple Emby App however as I do not have any Apple devices.

I'm just trying to figure out if I have something set incorrectly or is Emby really has different playback screens for TV shows vs movies. When you get to a TV show episode playback screen, it shows the audio and video details and then has a drop down list of the available subtitles. When you get to a movie playback screen, the same information is not shown. The movie does have the details embedded. Using Tiny Media Manager, I get this information: So, I'm wondering what I need to do or change with my Emby settings to get the movie playback screen to show the same information as the TV episodes. Just as an FYI, I have also added an external subtitle file (.srt) file for this movie. So I would hope that some kind of subtitle information would be shown. Any help would be appreciated. I am still setting items up and have only done about 15% of our movies. I want to make sure that I copy everything the way Emby likes it.

Hey Guys, I have Emby 4.2.1.0 running in a Docker container on a Linux host. All media is stored on Linux and presented to Kodi clients through SMB shares. Emby appears to work wonderfully and had no real issues. Just trying to understand a recent scenario 1) Added a new (to my system) TV sereis - using Sonarr and then scraped and downloaded by Sabnzbd - the TV sereis is Yellowstone 2) All episodes from both seasons were found and downloaded 3) On the same day Sonarr went through its list of TV series not fulfilled and downloaded some old episodes of Whose Line is it anyway (Season 13) - We are currently in Season 15 4) In my Kodi New Episodes list - all the ones from Whose Line is it anyway were listed - but none of the ones from Yellowstone 5) So i went into the show list and Yellowstone and all its episodes and data showed up - together with correct airing dates etc So it would appear Emby had found the series, scanned it and added it to the database - but had not told Kodi about them being new I can not give other exact examples to this level of detail - but this has happened before and it always seem to be when i add a show to the system that has not been added before - regardless of the age of the series So i guess my question is - what characterises a new Episode to Emby and gets it to present that to Kodi - and could there be something weird with the algorith - if it is a continuuing show, that is new to the system ?
