One other question, will the top picks be different for each user based on what they watch etc, or is it based globally on what all users watch, i.e. the list will be the same for every user? Thanks At the moment top picks is not unique to each user. I have been thinking about how something like that might be done, but currently top picks will be created based on the overall user base, and not individual users.

chef 3749 Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 Hey @MikePlanet  If you ever do make it back to the community forums and read this. I think that in the auto grouping plugin that you created (which is an awesome utility, and very useful) there may be an issue when attempting to combine items in the library with multiple media sources. For example, if an item already has multiple Media Sources attached to it, your plugin seems to want to try and recombine the media sources again... if that makes sense. Perhaps (and this is totally a guess, forgive me if I'm incorrect) it might be possible to add a check on the library items' media source count prior to acting upon it? //Where item is the current BaseItem. var libraryOptions = LibraryManager.GetLibraryOptions(item); //we need to pass in lib options for the item in the GetMediaSources method. var mediaSources = item.GetMediaSources(true, true, libraryOptions); //There are all the media sources attached to this item. if (mediaSources.Count >= 2) return; //does this BaseItem already have multiple sources attached to it? if it does we can ignore it and move on. Thanks so much in advance... I realize you've been @'d several times over the last couple days LOL! Thanks also for the awesome plugin utility. Excellent work sir  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What hasn't been tested (as I removed the Multi-grouping plugin a while back when library multi-version worked in the Core) - is multi-version across libraries - and I think this is what is causing the recursion issues - as I've seen it before when using strm files on my own 'recommendations' initial script.  You can re-create the issue @chef by just creating a STRM file that links to a different library.

Let me confirm on movies .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbjtech 4314 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) so going back to the original issue - if movies are grouped manually (which I guess I must have done..  as mine are grouped) then there is no issue with Top Picks. ? It's only when the 'Auto group Plugin' is used alongside 'Top Picks' ? Edited October 26, 2022 by rbjtech 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idealbrandon 1 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 So what am I doing wrong? I have the top picks plugin enabled (and purchased), I configured settings and added 10 movies just to start. On my Emby home screen, I see "Top Picks" under my media, but if I click into it it is empty. I don't see top picks anywhere else under home screen or under movies. I'm sure this is user error, but I cant figure this one out. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mookdog 90 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Why does top picks bury my memory on my pc when trying to scan in my top picks ? It does both a top picks and a media scan at the same time and my memory is 99% usage. I had to reboot the pc just to get it to run normal again. I uninstalled for the time being  Mook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikinjo 170 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 On home screen, where you have your top picks listed... word "Latest" is hardcoded. This should be removed or configurable. Not all ppl are english..., anyways you can use library name for what you want to display there. Just rename the library to whatever, no need for hard coding.

Thanks I would have thought it was based on the 'Home Screen' section wording - ie Latest Media applies the word 'Latest' in front of the library/channel. I'm unsure if this wording is localised ?  Can you show an example ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, one way to fix the duplicate library that you have created is to go into "Library" settings. (Sorry I'm on mobile...) Remove "Top Picks" from the row of libraries, and restart the server. If the duplicate library is listed there as well, you can remove it too. When the server restarts, it will have recreated the library for you. Then you will have to populate it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
