stevehoffman203 16 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I posted the above question prior to the 4.8 release and was told this would be enabled in 4.8. The NextMediaType as described in the solution does not appear to be working. As a reminder, I have a Webhook set to dim the lights when playback is started and another to bring the lights up when playback is stopped. This works great except for binge watching TV shows. In between every episode the lights come up for a second, then go back down, assuming due to a playback stop and a playback start. I was under the impression that the NextMediaType in the New Webhooks plugin would correct that and allow the lights to stay dimmed and long as the same media type was being played. Thank you!

Luke 37099 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Hi, what makes you think it isn't working? The lights are something for you to figure out, not Emby. From Emby's perspective, I can tell you that NextMediaType is being populated into the webhook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehoffman203 16 Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 The fact that it's evidently not recognizing the NextMediaType and still sending the webhook. Perhaps I don't fully understand. I was under the impression that if the NextMediaType was the same, then the webhook wouldn't activate. From your response, it's leading me to believe that I need to add something to NodeRed for the next media type. Is there a way to actually view the webhook that is being sent?

stevehoffman203 16 Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 I think maybe this Webhook stuff is just over my head. I cannot find a way to set nextmediatype in the Webhook setup. When I send a Webhook to Node-Red, I don't see nextmediatype anywhere in the payload. Other than the provided check boxes, I don't see any way to adjust what the Webhook sends. I appreciate your help Luke, but I think what I am wanting to do is just over my head or something. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37099 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Quote I cannot find a way to set nextmediatype in the Webhook setup It's nothing that you set. It is in the json payload that you receive from the webhook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehoffman203 16 Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 Attached is the payload received by Node-Red from Emby. I don't see NextMediaType in it. I must still be totally lost. Payload.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you start playing a folder of multiple items? If you're just playing a single video then it's going to be null. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a queue, but I guess it is a folder of multiple items. It's TV Episodes all located in the Show Folder. It starts as a single episode then automatically goes to the next and so on. Basically binge watching a TV Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37099 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 It might not be the issue. It could also just be that the android tv app isn't sending that data, so that's why I asked you to try the web app to see how that compares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehoffman203 16 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 OK, I'll try the web app and report back. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
