You should stick with eating it or smoking it or sniffing it. Emby does NOT mix well directly with blood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its extras, so can't well put them in Specials or Season 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junglejim 354 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) @LukeSo if I'm understanding this right... the 4.8 release will have the option to put extras in a "extras" folder and leave the specials folder for specials? Will the update in 4.8 just separates the two (specials/extras)? If that's the case, cool! Also I read that you removed "Display specials within seasons they aired in" in the beta... So that option is baked in now? Will always be true/enabled? Edited December 2, 2023 by Junglejim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It mainly just gives you extra storage options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigmack3000 84 Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 This seems like the right thread for me to post this. I really hope combining every extra as a special is reversed. It just appears to be a backwards way of solving what to do with extras. And Now things like this are happening: The extra should Never be the auto selected option. This change has just made extras cumbersome instead of smoothing anything out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where would emby even pull that information from though? Since the file name has no season or episode number in it. Either way, it should never prioritize a file like this over one in a season folder. This is one of the base flaws with the new extras design. They should never be in a pull down with the actual episode. It either hides the extras out of sight, or disorganizes them, like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure if it was that, plugin update or a combination of both That is a good method of dealing with "specials" that have been "inserted" in season order that you would prefer as stand alone specials. I did that for Futurama, as they had some specials that are listed as movies that aired between Season 5 and 6. They can be named as movies, or as TV episode "specials", or named as you did. I went half and half and added nfo files and edited them so they would show as specials (named S00Exx) but I took out the episode data from the meta and locked the meta. So now the meta is all there and they do not play after season 5 like the meta originally said they should, and re-scans won't change the data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
