How can I properly identify seasons and episodes in Emby?
AngelSing posted a topic in General/Windows
Greetings, Is there a way to identify a season of a series in Emby? I’ve encountered several anime series where seasons are released in parts, each with its own advertising, different release dates, and even a unique identifier, like those managed by AniDB.net. This site is one of the most comprehensive metadata collectors for anime, but Emby does not integrate an official plugin for it, unlike Jellyfin. Currently, Emby only has the functionality to identify complete series, but not individual seasons or episodes. This becomes an issue when organizing series with seasons split into parts. For example, if I have a season divided into Part 1 and Part 2, and in my directory, I place them as "Season 1" and "Season 2," Emby automatically interprets "Season 2" as the second season. However, that’s not correct, as both are part of the same season. I tried copying and pasting the corresponding IDs from AniDB.net into the metadata and then updating it, but Emby doesn’t recognize them. AniDB.net would be an excellent option because it organizes seasons and episodes in great detail, assigning them unique IDs. However, the real issue is that Emby lacks the functionality to identify seasons and episodes accurately. If Emby developed this feature, integrating AniDB.net as a plugin would be ideal, as it would allow selecting seasons and episodes based on those IDs. That said, is there any way to achieve this level of organization in Emby? Is there a way to have seasons identified correctly without solely relying on folder names? I would appreciate any suggestions to resolve this issue. -
Hello, I’m trying to organize a movie from an anime series that could be considered a special. My goal is to have it appear within the series as a movie in the "Seasons" section, and not as an episode. In the directory, I created a Season 00 folder and placed the movie there as a special. However, I want it to remain in chronological order alongside the other seasons. The issue is that assigning it to Season 0 positions it at the very beginning of the list. If I change it to Season 3, it might cause issues in the future when Season 3 is released. For this reason, I left it as Season 00 and thought I could adjust it using the "Sort by Title" option in the metadata to achieve the desired order. However, so far, I haven’t been able to understand how this feature works. I’ve tried changing the title in the metadata, using "Season 3," the letter "C," the number "3," and other options, but it still doesn’t organize as I want. Could someone explain how to correctly use the "Sort by Title" function? Or, alternatively, does anyone know another method to chronologically organize specials within a series?

Hi there. I've read some article here like . Like them, Emby currently is not friendly to animes. Many animes releases several TV seasons, OVAs and Movies. They released, and should be viewed, in order. For example, one anime may release TV Season1, then an OVA, then another Movie, then TV Season2. If we order them using a fake "SeasonNumber", in this example, if the TV Season 2 has a SeasonNumber 4, the info for episodes will be applied wrongly. Currently, because Emby has a FIXED sorting way, always using SeasonNumber over SortTitle, there is no way to have them well. Please consider to add an option in Library level, or even in folder level, to let the admin choose the sorting priority. Thanks a lot.

Pull TV Show Images from a different season or main series
shanarago posted a topic in Feature Requests
I've run into several instances where a season of a show doesn't have a cover I like, or in some cases no image at all. Usually, I can find a replacement image from either the main series or different season that is suitable. But to do this I either need to temporarily download the image on the series or season so can grab it and place it in the right season, or search for it myself. It would be far less cumbersome if I could just pull from whatever image associated with the series. I made a graphic on how it could possibly look. -
Can we add a sort-order for TV Series such that those series which have recently aired a new episode are at the top? Sorting by 'Release Date' is good for finding completely new series, seeing which have been released this year, say. But it'd be nice to see the series listed with new episodes, even when the series started many years ago. That way you can see what you need to catch up with, even if you didn't know there was a newly aired episode, etc. This could honour the 'Display Missing Episodes' option, such that the season would appear at the top even if the episode hadn't been added to emby yet, was missing. This would be handy for identifying missing episodes too.

Hi all, Please forgive me in advance as I am not familiar with posting on public forums. I have tried to search but have only found results for multi episode files in a single season. I have a TV Show where the episodes are only a few minutes long, and the single video file contains all the episodes for both season 1 and season 2. (It is contained in a single Volume) I know how to rename the file so EMBY detects all the episodes in a single season. Example: <Show Title> 01x01 - 01x10 How would I go about naming the file to pick up that it is episodes from two seasons? I have tried the below but it only detects the first season episodes. <Show Title> 01x01 - 02x10 <Show Title> 01x01 - 01x10, 02x01 - 02x10 If this will not work on EMBY, would there be any alternative suggestions?

I have a number of cartoon tv shows for my kids and Emby can't find one show at all and can't find 2 seasons for 2 other shows. The missing show is Curious George (PBS series from 2006). The shows missing seasons are Phineas and Ferb (finds seasons 3 and 4, but nothing from 1 or 2) and The Loud House (finds seasons 2 and 4, but nothing from 1 and 3). It's very odd in the case of Phineas and Ferb because I know for a fact all of those videos are from the same source and in the same format so I can't understand why it can only find 2 of the 4 seasons. I use an episode naming software for all of my shows so they have the same format across the board. I also have Plex on my Roku and it has no problems finding the missing show OR the missing seasons. I like Emby better overall, but Plex does have a leg up on it in this area.

Hi Team, I have noticed a small issue happening with some of my anime tv series season images. What is happening is the season image appears with 2 side black pillars, and a smaller season image preview. If I try to edit this image it shows up with a blank selection asking me to upload an image. See attached images. I have tried to refresh the metadata, deleted/re-added but the same issue comes back. I'm not using the anime plugin, everything is running standard stock plugins. This is only happening to selected anime shows, not all of them. The issue is not replicated in my normal tv shows library, only the anime library. Is there a way to fix this issue? Details: Synology NAS DS920+ Emby Server Version 4.4.3.0

Hello All, I am coming over from Plex and liking the transition so far just trying to clarifying some things that are working differently. So when using Plex it was setup with auto play and it would play straight through all episodes and seasons regardless of which episode I chose. With Emby all episodes play within the season but then stops and does not keep playing other seasons. Is that the expected functionality?
-
Just like you can see all the episodes in your library at once on the "episodes" tab, I would like to see a "seasons" tab so you can see all your seasons at once. Use case: I typically wait until a new season has started to delete older seasons that have already been watched.

Guten Abend, nachdem ich durch dieses Forum das ein oder andere Problem lösen konnte, stehe ich nun vor etwas, das ich nicht selbst beheben kann. Meine Serien sind nach folgender Kovention benannt, die auch grundsätzlich zu passen scheint: Serienname /Season XX / Serienname - SXXEXX - Folgenname.ext Bei allen Serien werden die Staffeln richtig ausgeworfen. Die einzige Ausnahme bildet hier die Serie Babylon 5. Obwohl die Ordner richtig benannt sind, werden die Staffeln in der Übersicht nicht richtig ausgeworfen. Das sieht dann wie folgt aus: Im Staffelordner finde ich weiterhin eine Datei season.nfo, die für die erste Staffel wie folgt aussieht: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <season> <plot /> <outline /> <lockdata>false</lockdata> <dateadded>2018-01-12 02:06:03</dateadded> <title>Staffel 5</title> <year>1993</year> <premiered>1993-02-22</premiered> <releasedate>1993-02-22</releasedate> <art> <poster>/volume1/Videos/Serien/Babylon 5/season05-poster.jpg</poster> </art> <seasonnumber>5</seasonnumber> </season> Wie kann ich das korrigieren? Danke für Eure Hilfe, Gruß, Connor

Hello, I've just noticed that certain seasons of my TV shows are suddenly showing as blank (both on WMC and via Browser), in that no episodes are listed. I haven't changed my folder structure, all the files are there so I can't figure out why it's happening. My folder structure is G:\TV Shows\Breaking Bad\Season 1\01X01.mp4 Breaking Bad for example looks like this for all the seasons: If I do a refresh, it restores the episodes but they disappear again a few minutes later.

Unable to select Seasons in Emby for WMC via Ceton Echo
FrankAZ posted a topic in Windows Media Center
Hello, I am unable to select between TV Show | Seasons while navigating Emby for WMC through a Ceton Echo extender. Everything works fine when using Emby for WMC directly on the HTPC, using Emby-Android on an Amazon FireTV, using Chrome browser, Emby Theater, and Emby-Android on an Android cellphone. Further details.... I have multiple TV shows, most with multiple seasons, stored in a library identified as type 'TV'. On other clients including Emby-for-WMC on the HTPC I am able to navigate through my libraries and into TV Shows, etc all the way down to episodes before playing. On the Emby-for-WMC client accessed through an extender (Ceton Echo) I am able to navigate to the TV show and select it so that the seasons are illustrated. I am also able to select the presented default Season 1 and play episodes there. Seasons 2..N are visible (with artwork), but Seasons 2..N cannot be scrolled to (left/right buttons) much less selected. The errant behavior is exhibited for all TV Shows. Left/Right scrolling in other elements of the GUI works. I have not used the Ceton Echo extender for playing Emby content for the last month or two so cannot definitively ascribe the behavior to a particular update version. In recent months I have added to the libraries, utilized Windows Update on all machines, and kept my Emby server and clients up-to-date (dev builds). It used to work several months ago. My Emby Server is now 3.1.114.0 (Windows Server 2012); my Emby for WMC is 3.0.307. I have restarted everything in sight, cleaned the server database, and refreshed the library for a few representative TV Shows. If this report doesn't elicit a 'known bad behavior' comment I will reproduce in a clean restart and post logs for server and WMC client. This is affecting Mrs FrankAZ so I am motivated to fix it. Thanks, -

Hello All, I have recently moved my Server to a new machine (Intel NUC, i'd reccomend one) and have come accross an issue with TV shows seasons. For some reason they are not showing up in the web client when the show is browsed....... Metadata Manager list them as they should......... This is my folder structure...... Media Browser classic seems to list them correctly....... So this issue seems to be just with the web client. Can anyone shine any list on this for me, I'm using the latest release (not any beta's) Thank you EDIT - It seems the seasons do show up, but not straight away, haven't times it exactly but its well over 10 minutes then they suddenly appear

web client - season showing as "undefined" for every Episode in UI
spon posted a topic in General/Windows
Hello, I am experiencing an issue where the Season information is missing from the individual episode UI on the web client. As you can see in the screenshot, it shows "undefined" where it used to show "Season 1". Everything looks correct in the metadata and also in the overall Season UI, it's just missing in the individual episode UI. I am on version 3.0.5393.38626 Thanks!!- 9 replies

Let me preface this by saying that I'm coming from years of using MB2. I've started playing around with MBT and movies and TV look fantastic. I've noticed though that when viewing TV that there are so many extra button clicks that I'm never going to get it past the WAF. I like the poster view. If I click a show poster, then it will open up and then I have to click Seasons at the top and then click the season (even if it's a single season) and then click the show. Is there any way to have it default into seasons (honestly, I don't need to see a synopsis of the show every single time I click on it) and directly into episodes if there is one season? I'm still learning my way around it so perhaps I missed it. Thanks Josh

A lot of my TV shows weren't being recognized properly due to extra files or just plain incorrect metadata. After fixing a lot of it myself (missing IMDb IDs, etc.), I noticed that for one show, it wasn't showing seasons or episodes, but episodes were still visible through search. The show page: Searching for an episode name reveals it: Clicking on an episode says it's "missing"... ...but the files are there. Did I break MediaBrowser?
