nashoba 0 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Hi, Is there a way for Emby to always use the name of the local file and not the name it found thanks to the metadata? For example, it happens that a file named XXXXX in the local files, is named with another name or in another language on Emby. So when I try to search for the file with the Emby search bar, it doesn't find it most of the time. There is a way to improve the search bar or to prevent Emby from changing the file name.

You can either: 1) Download metadata in desired language (including titles) 2) Prefer embedded titles 3) Use Home Videos & Photos content type library where no metadata fetching is involved and items (mostly) preserve filenames 4) Edit title manually Edited October 17, 2023 by GrimReaper Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
