With the latest Beta update is the list of the downloaded videos and uploaded empty. When you call the plugin settings it spins only but the lists are staying empty.

Thanks, I tend to only keep up with official release versions as beta is ever changing and often find myself chasing my tail. I'll take a look properly over the next week or so.

Is the plugin respecting the personal language settings and trying to get the trailers in the correct language or is it all english?

Thanks

Hey, long time speak people, I hope youre all doing well! Sorry I've not been so active. A lot of family health issues have come about and currently spending as much time with my dad after a terminal illness diagnosis back in Feb. 

 

Just as a heads-up, some of the domains involved in the hosting of the theme media will be updated this evening. It shouldn't cause much issue but you may see your plugin fail tonight if it happens to be scheduled whilst the new stuff propagates.

is there any way we can block this one particular user from uploading trailers to the theme videos network? Every time this person adds a new movie they put the trailer in the backdrops folder and it gets uploaded to everyone's servers. Its so tedious and annoying to have go through my media regularly to look for misplaced trailers in the backdrop folders. I have no problem if that is how someone wants their media to be displayed but it shouldn't be uploaded if it isn't a proper theme. Also now when someone actually does put in a proper theme it won't pull it unless you delete the trailer and then go into the plugin settings and mark it as not downloaded.

sorry rant over. It's just frustrating.

Go to settings, schedule tasks, than scan all libraries, do the play button on all tasks, wait, restart server, than should be ready, it will start showing slowly, not all movies have themes, you can create your own theme, by simply put a video in the movie folder and change the name to theme.mp4

I've been having some issues with both the theme song and theme movie grabbing the wrong movie. Is there a better way to specify or choose the search parameters?

Awesome plugin. Installed and running smoothly. No issues so far!

I have the latest Emby (4.8.8.0) and Plugin version and the downloading of the video themes always gets stuck. I even installed Emby completely from scratch (removed @appdata/EmbyServer) and still it gets stuck. I dont know what to do to fix it. Please help. I run the server on a Synology DS224+.

I uninstalled the plugin. Then installed the previous version. Restarted server, installed latest version, rebooted again and now it works!

Hey all, I'm heartbroken to say my dad passed away on Monday 1st July after a 6 year battle with heart attacks, an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, Parkinsons and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. I'm going to be taking some time out from everything for a while. Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere for long and will return in the coming weeks, I just need to take some time for all the usual reasons you'd expect. Please bear with me. I will be back. 

[GrimReaper 4141]

Sorry for your loss, bud. My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

I am having the same issue.  I tried removing the plugin, reinstalling the old version, rebooting, and then installing the newest version without any resolution.  It always gets to about half way and then stops.

So I'm relatively new to Emby.  Been a Plex user for ages, but the recent habit of releases that break encoding, a lack of customization, and just generally pivoting to things other than local library management, I'm looking for greener pastures.  I've downloaded and purchased the plug-in, but have some questions.  I should firstly say that my media sources are mounted as read-only in many cases, since I am currently testing several platforms on the same sources, and don't want anything to modify the already established local metadata and images.  This that in mind:

1) Currently, it appears that the plug-in works globally on all libraries.  Is this possible to change, so that only the writable libraries are targeted?  If not, is this a feature that could be added?

2) Is it possible to have the plug-in store the themes in the Emby server's own image/metadata cache, instead of attempting to move them to the source locations?

3) Is there any way to have the plugin scan the libraries, download the themes, and save them in a specified location, allowing me to move them manually after verification?

Any insight is greatly appreciated.  Thanks for making such a marvelous tool.

Hi, I can answer this. This is currently not supported because the core server won't be looking in that location for theme songs. You can always create a feature request topic for that. Thanks.
