Codecs Intros, multiple files per codec

[grid-hibiscus-pancake 6]

I tried searching the forum but no avail.

I was wondering if the following is possible.

I would like to have multiple prerolls (codec intros) files to be chosen at random per a given codec, then be played before a movie.

For example  I would like to structure my codec intro folder like so:

• codec intros
  • dts
    • file1.mkv
    • file2.mkv
    • fileN.mkv
  • atmos
    • file1.mkv
    • file2.mkv
    • etc.mkv
  • ac3
    • file1.mkv
    • etc

Then emby would go into a folder/tag based on the media and then choose a file at random.

judging from the documentation this doesn't seem to be the case, is this something possible?

Thanks for all the help.

Vantage Point plugin would likely satisfy your requirements.

This looks great!!!

I've read through the post,  don't see a way to install it.

It doesn't show up in the list of plugins either.

Am i missing something?

What client app you're browsing Plugin Catalogue from?

Got it!

For some reason on my android phone vantage wasn't showing up, but it does on the web client.

Will give it a try!

Thank you very much!

It seems my reply got deleted. I hope this is a good place to ask since you've pointed me out in the right direction.

I can't seem to get anything to play before movies. I've followed the tutorial in the plugin page.

1. I have cinema intros enabled in the playback section of my web app.(desktop)

2. I have rescanned the library

3. I got the plugin enabled.

But only movies play no prerolls at all. And nothing in emby logs it seems.

Do you have any ideas? I am sure it's something small i am missing.

It was not deleted, it was moved to appropriate plugin forum section for troubleshooting, as it is more likely that you'll get assistance there, either from plugin Dev or community members that might've faced same issue.
