Emby next gen - Tv Shows cannot be sorted by episode

[stefprob 3]

I am having the following odd problem, when i add my TV Shows  menu from Emby (video nodes, emby next-gen, Tv SHOWS), i do not have the option to short them by episode. If i add them through the normal TV SHOWS of Kodi (media, video, import--> dirext smb path to tv shows folder)  the option to short them by episode is available.

Update, i open emby, choose TV SHOWS and when i get in a show i still cannot sort by episode, there is no option to select it....

I have tried with the default Kodi skin and with AEON MQ for Matrix.

Well, I don't use this skin, but stock skin has an option.

The pic you have posted is from the default Kodi TV SHOWS menu and yes, it has a sort by episode option. I am talking about the TV SHOWS from Emby next gen menu, where no option like this exists:

Oh, you are talking about un-synced content? I'll add the sort option....

Synced content has of course the same options in plugin menu.

So, if  i sync the emby tv shows library i have created with Kodi, when i open Emby and TV SHOWS there will be an option to sort by episode, if i understand correct?

How do i sync the library? Please inform me about that operation.

Please elaborate:

I'm a bit confused, the plugin shows only Emby (server) content. Are you talking about Kodi native content?

...and yes, if you sync it, you have the sort option. Also I'm a bit surprised you did sync it while plugin installation. The install wizard asked you what to sync. Anyway, you can modify synced content in the plugin config menu -> sync -> manage libraries.

Yes, sorry, i wrote it wrong, the library i have created with Emby not Kodi. The wizard did ask me to sync the library, i did sync it, but i still do not have the option to sort it by episode.

I will go into emby options, remove the TV SHOWS library and then add it again to see what happens, i will report back the results....

It seems i cannot remove, add or repair the specific library, since anything i choose there is no option to select a specific library, i can see only the "All" option and when i press it nothing happens...

I uninstalled emby next-gen, restarted Kodi, installed again. It is syncing all libraries now, i will check when it has finished and report back to you,

I am using Xiaomi Mi-Box S.

Mark this solved, there was something wrong with the installation, after i installed again and synced, everything is ok, i now have the option to sort by episode and is selected by default.

 

Thanks a lot for your help!
