automatic merging of multi copies of a movie

[80srule 23]

So I know you can go and you can click on both movies in the server and then click combined but I was wondering if there was some sort of plug-in or an automatic thing that would just go through and merge the multiple copies together? In order to avoid people transcoding sometimes I have movies that are low quality and then a 1080 P with full surround and then a 4K.

You could follow this guide, and organise your movie folders with the different versions using 'Multi-version' naming

Emby will then present all available versions within the same movie details page.

There are three methods of multi-versioning.

1. All in same folder with specific naming scheme KB linked above

2. Manually multi-select and group them

3. the plugin
