If items are out of order for users in the future, I'll ask if that plugin is installed as part of the debugging process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junglejim 353 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 @chef I think I know why the tags are going missing when I play media for some time from top-picks. As you know I don't usually use nfo files (that's prob why I removed the plugin years ago..) but I did some tests and if I have "Metadata Savers" selected for the Top-Picks library that doesn't happen. I know the plugin writes "date added" to the nfo in "data/top-picks" which was my problem with the sort of the list (no nfo plugin ). I'm not sure if the "Metadata Savers" option is enabled by default (not for me anyway)? Maybe as a backup the plugin could add the tags info along with the date added to "data/top-picks" lib dir? Or maybe enable the Savers option along with the Readers as default? I don't mind ether way, Top-Picks is virtual library and is always changing so nfo's are all good there.

woenk 57 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 justed tested the plugin for the first time... Is the library scan really necessary every time ? Or are the tags not stored in the database but solely in the .nfo ? A possibility to have a user select and share his own top picks would be really nifty. And preferrably also have Top Pics Movies and a seperate Top Picks TV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the tags are stored in the NFO to help set where the ranked item is shown on the home screen and in the library, the images are rendered for each item, and a new unique Id is created during the update task. With that said, I think that the answer is, yes a library scan has to run each time in order to update the metadata. I'm pretty sure. I like the idea of users setting their own top picks. I know that @rbjtech has been working recommendation library using playlists that allows you to get this exact idea working in emby. Now that the core devs have released public and private playlists, we may wee some further development to see this sooner then later. A separate top picks library for tv shows did cross my mind. The original feature request was to access tv shows in top picks. At the time bundling the items together seems like the quickest way to fullfil the request. But, it is a good idea.

horstepipe 356 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 anyone got this working with nginx/cloudflare in place? Top picks stay empty here, on the settings page the movie list keeps loading - But I must say that I'm having a quite big library.

Thanks for that, @Junglejim. @chef, is Top Picks plugin reading rating from db or from item NFO? If latter, what tags is it reading? <rating> and <criticrating> only or proper Kodi formatted node: <ratings> <rating name="" max="" default=""> <value></value> <votes></votes> </rating> </ratings> ?

NFO files/Movies - Official Kodi Wiki It don't think it reads ratings from NFO, I'll check that out. It might be grabbing rating data for the top pick item during the library scan. I'd have to double check. Edited November 18, 2022 by chef 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, there is obviously something " a-miss". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
