Playlist sorting should stay in the mode selected (or offer an option)
RLanger7228 posted a topic in General/Windows
As I organize my collection in Emby after "importing" it from Synology Video Station, I have been assigning various videos to different playlists. Thousands of videos is taking quite some time, since additions are in small groups as I get time to dedicate to this project amongst life's other duties. There are several options for sorting, though I prefer alphabetically by title. However, no matter how many times I select the title option for sorting, it seems to revert back to the order in which they are added to the playlist after new titles are added. It seems to retain the alphabetical title order for the films added earlier, but the newly added films always appear at the end of the list, without automatically being sorted by title as I originally requested. I can re-sort by title after adding, but when I add more films at a later date, they always appear at the end of the list. It would be nice if the sorting function either automatically maintained the selected sorting preference, or at least had a "toggle-able" option to "maintain this sort order preference as new titles are added", or equivalent language. -

Can we have an additional sorting option, under "Sort By:" and "Sort Order:" to toggle the ignoring of the articles (A, An, The). Both sorting regimes are needed. When my mates are browsing thru my collection to 'borrow' some movies, having to jump up and down to the 'The' section of the filenames is a PITA, so i'd toggle it to sort the articles normally making it match the file listing.

Hello. I'm net to Emby after Plex proved too frustrating and the people running it aren't much help. I have a couple of questions: Is there a way to turn off auto-generated Collections? It's kinda ridiculous to have dozens of collections created whether I want them or not. If not, is there a way to delete them all instead of going through them one at a time? Is it possible to hide the song list under individual artists? I'd rather just see the albums. Also is it possible to change the sort order for albums listed under an artist? Thanks.

Hi! This might be a little esoteric - I have a big collection of films and particularly some of the older/more obscure ones just don't have a release date. Only a year. For example, a movie.nfo will look like this: <movie> <title>Rabbit Fire</title> <originaltitle>Rabbit Fire</originaltitle> <year>1951</year> <premiered /> ... This messes up the display when I want to sort by Date. My only on-screen option is to choose 'Release Date' and it'll sort anything with a release/premiered attribute perfectly... but everything else it just lumps together. Things from the 1920s mingling with obscure stuff from the 1990s. Now, is there a way I can re-map 'Release Date' to just look at the 'Year' attribute, or to use Year as a fall-back for when release/premiered aren't populated? My alternative would be to do something script-y to try to automate updating all the nfo files so that if there's no release date, then write a Release Date based on to 01-01-{year}. I'm using tinyMediaManager to handle the nfo files. Thanks loads and I appreciate your advice. Emby is a brilliant media manager and I really enjoy using it.

I experienced a very weird thing today where artists that are written small get sorted to the back of the library when you sort by album artist. This happened with a different artist that was written small too, after this I added 2 other albums with artists written big and they behave completely normal. I then put the file into MP3Tag and capitalized the artist/Album Artist/AlbumArtistsort, deleted the MBP Tag and put the file in a folder next to the first one. After this I scanned the library and boom, the second fiel with the capitalized artist sorts normally BUT is still written small - even if it shouldn't be - and gets sorted into the same allbum artist section like the one written small. When I sort by something else than album artist both files sort correctly. I attached the files if somebody wants to check, trippin is the one written small, trippin 2 is the one that is capitalized according to MP3Tag. I am confused. alllone - Bedroom Files Vol.1 - 01 trippin 2.flac alllone - Bedroom Files Vol.1 - 01 trippin.flac

Duplicate Better Visibility for Audio Metadata / IOS UI Tweaks
Guest posted a topic in Feature Requests
I would love to see the option to have Emby show me more advanced Metadata for audio. I tag my files as meticolous as possible and it would be nice to have a display for things like Label, Barcode, ISRC, Catalogue Number, Original Release Date / Media Release Date etc. Basically the values MBP already shows me in it's tagger. But also the more technicals side of things like Sample Rate, Bit Rate, File Format, Mono/Stereo. Video already does that, so why not audio? Also a few more sorting options in Audio would be nice, like having the possibility to sort by Artist AND year, not just one of them. Further I'd love to have the option to turn off backgrounds in certain sections, same with Logos. I like the backgrounds/logos in movies but i dislike them in the music section, sometimes it differs from artist to artist. Another thing is the UI for the IOS Apps, to be more precise the bottom bar. It would be lovely to be able to customise that bar. For example, I don't need fast access to movies on my phone, but on my iPad, the other way around with music. Anyways, thanks a lot for the effort you put into Emby! UI wise I already like it a hundred times more than Plex. EDIT : Not just UI wise. In general. -
Hello, This is in the Home screen. Since the latest Big update to Emby all newly added episodes are being shown in the "latest" view of any category. This is my file structure: I cannot find anywhere to change this behavior. Am I just blind?

Earlier today my Emby updated: ---- Emby Server on Emby Server has been updated to 4.3.0.26 11/23/2019, 8:24:28 am ---- Since then the sorting on my Roku has gone messed. I normally have things sorted by alpha, but now it seems to just randomly sort (Doesn't match by date, by added, by anything I can tell. Just...random.) If I change the sorting to something else, then back to alpha it's fine. This is still problematic for 2 reasons: 1 - I can't sort the main screen, so my various folders are in random order now with no way to fix it. ((Edit: Number 1 has been resolved. You can change sorting from the Emby user panel. Thanks!)) 2 - Having to change the sorting hundreds of different sub-folders is a bit much. - Is there a global setting I can use to change the default sort order pushed to apps? - If not, is this a bug that might be fixed soon? - If not...help? Short of removing and re-adding all my libraries and praying, I can't think of any other way to fix. Thank you.

Hi! I find it difficult to browse my image folders due to a problem with sorting. I experienced the same problems both in the latest stable version, and in the 4.4.0.4 Beta. Please view attached screenshot. As you can see, all images have a somewhat long title with an embedded timestamp. Sorting on title results in the following: IMG_20170705-190126 IMG_20170705-174138 IMG_20170705-120448 IMG_20170702-091124 IMG_20170706-132632 Any help would be appreciated. Best regards, Ole

Hello all. There was recently a new version of Emby which seems to have changed how videos, specifically TV show episodes are tracked and displayed. I used to just get the season for latest video, if I put more than one episode in the folder. Now it shows the season, and each episode, and sometimes the series as a separate item in the folder. I want it to go back to just the season or the episode. What changed? What setting do I need to adjust, Thank you.

'Listened To' Tick for Audio Books, 'Read' Tick for EPubs
geoff511 posted a topic in Feature Requests
Hi, Would it be possible to add the 'watched status' style tick to Audio Books and EPublications ? I have a extensive library of Movies & TV Shows, and once I've watched them, they can then be given a green tick to remind me of the watched status. I also have an extensive library of Audio Books, however, I can't at a glance see what I've listen to or not as there is no way to add a 'Listened To' tick to Fanart Icon/pic on the Audio Book page or a 'Read' tick to EPubs. Thanks -
I could swear this was working correctly before v4.x but I could be mistaken... Please see screenshot below -- I'm sorting by Album Artist and note that artists starting with "the" are being sorted by "the." It looks like system.xml is configured correctly (I haven't changed defaults): <SortRemoveWords> <string>the</string> <string>a</string> <string>an</string> </SortRemoveWords> Thanks!

A method of sorting found in the web version Emby is not present in Emby Theater and it happens to be my absolute favorite method of sorting. Please add it. Although the Album feature exist it does not allow sorting by the Artist under Albums like the web version does. As you can see the sorting is by album title only and no way to switch sorting for the artist instead while still showing album covers.

When I go to, say, a directors page and go to "Episodes", it gives several sort options but not one to sort by episode title. The closest is the default, "Name", but the episode names prepend the season and episode numbers, so that's basically the same in practice as sorting by "Release Date". I'd like to be able to sort alphabetically by episode title regardless of the episode air order.

Now that the SortRemoveWords hack doesn't work, can we please, please just have Sort by 'Filename/Path' added to the sorting options! It's such a simple and obvious feature. I need to change the sort order to match the media files on the filesystem. But Emby sorts the titles ignoring the articles, A, An, The... Which is entirely valid, but we need to switch between either. Emby was created to help us wrangle huge numbers of media files, sorting data is such a basic feature! Please!

Hello. I just downloaded and installed Emby today after having used Plex Media Server for over 5 years. I love Plex but recent updates have made it where the transcoder is crashing on Movies and there is no work around in sight for the time being, so I moved to Emby. I just want to say I love Emby and it is working flawlessly for my Movies but I am having an issue with TV Shows. I previously just used the TV Shows folder on my External Drive to store the shows we watch and Plex would automatically sort them but series and assign them under one cover art for us to watch. With Emby it seems it is only recognizing TV shows if they are in their own folder. The only show that is like that is B: The Beginning and that is a FileBot setup for that particular show. How I currently have my TV shows is as follows: G:\TV Shows\Episiodes (show name - #x## - episode title) I see that Emby wants you to do it as this: TV Shows (main folder for all TV Shows) TV Show (e.g. Wynona Earp) Episode Information (e.g. 3x03 - Colder Weather) What I want to know is if it is possible to have it the way I have done it or do I need to create separate folders for ALL the TV shows I have and move them accordingly? If so I guess I can do it but I have a TON of shows and I was hoping there was a work around. I tried the Auto Sort plug-in and pointed it to my TV Shows directory but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I have attached a couple of images. Thanks, WarEagleUS

Small and nitpicky thing: It would be nice if the sorting algorithm could recognize roman numerals and sort them numerically. For example, currently "Men in Black 3" comes before "Men in Black II". No big deal but it would be nice.

This is not, by any means, an urgent issue. I am just looking to clean up my TV file system & am curious as to what the best method is to do this. By "clean up", I mean sort the shows via category or genre, while keeping them separate on my actual Emby server. My level of intelligence in this sort of thing isn't 100%, but I do have some knowledge in how to make all this stuff flow together & work. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I was checking out the new sorting options in the Apple TV app (really good, BTW) and after I sorted by budget... the app stopped showing movies. I can still get to them by Genre or Search, but All now just shows me a blank screen. I tried restarting the server, the Apple TV, removing and re-adding the app and nothing worked. Movies displayed fine in the web app. I checked through the logs and it looks like Budget isn't available in my SQLite DB.

Hi! I have a large media library with clips from different shows - sorted by the date they originally aired. I would like to find a way to be able to add all these clips to one place, sort them by date and then watch them chronologically on my phone. I have tried in a lot of ways, but I can't make it work. I spent years finding the airing date of every single clip and adding the date to the name, but in the Emby player the names of the clips are automatically changed to episode names, so even if I could find a place in Emby to add the files, I wouldn't be able to sort them correctly. Also, there are a lot of clips that come from the same episode, which just seems to confuse Emby. Please help me. How do I make Emby stop changing the names of my files? Is there a playlist (of something similar) function where I might be able to sort the clips by date? And if so - would I then be able to watch this "playlist" on my phone (e.g. on my way to work)?

I have a problem with Emby sorting my music. Multiple albums are lumped together as the same album. I have one album in particular, which supposedly contains 571 songs. In the artist view I also find artists with only two or three albums showing up when there should be 6 or 7. Before putting the music into the Emby library I went through and re-tagged all of the music I own to try to avoid this problem. I used a stand-alone music tagging program and checked album, artist, album artist, and one or two more categories. In many cases I also made the artist and album artist match (using a single "main" artist rather than listing all artists). For the multiple albums being lumped together issue (571 songs in one album), the music is all in a folder called "Christmas," but is stored in separate sub folders by 1) artist, then 2) album. The album titles are not the same. I tried Emby on a Windows computer and later on a Ubuntu Linux computer that is acting as a storage/multimedia server. Both versions had the same problem sorting my music. What suggestions do you have, and what additional information do you need?

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if it's possible to sort movie with multi audio I have a few movie with multi audio within a MKV file but I would like to be able to sort my library just to get the one with multi audio Thx !
