Server Version 4.7.1.0 When I use the Emby client, everything works fine. Files like CD2, CD3 will appear in Additional Parts. But when I play these videos via DLNA, only CD1 will be played, the rest will not be played. Even if I browse by folder, I can't see the CD2 and CD3 files, all videos are considered as one movie and only the first part can be played. I have tried two folder structures : #1 \FolderName FileName-CD1.mp4 FileName-CD1.nfo FileName-CD1-poster.jpg FileName-CD2.mp4 FileName-CD3.mp4 #2 \FolderName FileName-CD1.mp4 FileName-CD1.nfo FileName-CD1-poster.jpg FileName-CD2.mp4 FileName-CD2.nfo FileName-CD2-poster.jpg FileName-CD3.mp4 FileName-CD3.nfo FileName-CD3-poster.jpg I tried different Content types like Movies, Home videos & photos, Mixed content, and the result was the same, I can't play CD2, CD3 via DLNA. Besides using software to merge video files, the only solution is to put each part of the video in a separate folder. But this would result in the same movie appearing multiple times in the video library, which is not easy to manage. So, how should I fix this issue now? If this issue cannot be solved in the current version, are there any plans to improve it in the future? Thanks.

I have a movie that I own 2 versions of, theatrical release(TR) and extended release(ER). I know how to make these types of movies show under the same icon in the DB list, and have done so with many other movies I own. The issue I am having with this one is that the ER comes on two disks. I figured out how to get the two disks to show up as the same movie in the list. I have also followed the steps that have worked in the past for getting the 2 movie versions(TR &ER) to show up under the same icon and it is not working. Is this a limitation of the program or am I just not doing it correctly? What I am doing with the names C:\movies\ Moviename (YYYY)\ Moviename (YYYY) [theatrical release].mp4 Moviename (YYYY)part1 [extended release].mp4 Moviename (YYYY)part2 [extended release].mp4
