rbjtech Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 If you wanted to display it within the Emby Apps - then I agree - but I'm not asking for that. I've just got myself a tmdb API key and queried the 'collection ID' from tmdb (and also in the Emby dB for a movie that is part of a collection) - it lists all the movies for that collection with tmdb movie references. So I'm thinking, it cannot be that hard to compare this list to what's in the Emby dB (do a sub-query) and simply list those that do not exist as missing in the log. I'm not after displaying anything in the Apps just a log reference. I'm having a play in Python now (API lookup is all working fine) so I guess I just need to learn the syntax of the Emby API and try combine the two .. (I'm not a developer, so this is new to me ..)

cayars Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I would love to have "show missing" as an option for collections just like we have for TV Shows. Can't tell you how many times I've had to manually hunt down missing movies just to complete a collection. I find this same "show missing" feature invaluable in TV Shows and would love it just as much for collections. This would only apply to Box Sets and not manually created collections IMHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbjtech Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 This would only apply to Box Sets and not manually created collections IMHO. It's frustrating why this is not an easy thing (for a developer lol) to do - because a single API call to tmdb lists all the information in a single JSON query, all the sub movies are held in an array. It just needs a sub-query on what's already in the emby dB - match the tmdb numbers and list what you're missing. If we did want to go all the way and list in the App - then 'Auto-Box sets' could write a fake movie file to a predetermined area, named correctly and tmdb would pick it up as the valid movie - the trouble is how do you then mark it as 'missing' as opposed to being valid ? Not sure how it's done for episodes.. In the end, I crudely got the same result by just copying the tmdb collection references from the Auto-Box sets (in Verbose logging) into Excel and queried each one to find the missing items, but to automate this would be a great feature imo as on a few collections I never realised there were follow up or prequel movies at all .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 IIRC - episodes are flagged as "virtual" in the db for missing probably the code is not there for movies and other videos - not a major change - but not a priority i guess with all the other things on the go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazedMonkey Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 If you folks are wanting aomething that will show you what movies are missing from your collections, and you are already using Radarr, there are a couple scripts out there already that will spit out a list for you. They don't interaxt with Emby, but you will at least be able to figure out what is missing so you can fill them out without having to manually hunt everything down: https://www.reddit.com/r/radarr/comments/axhllg/major_update_radarr_collections_and_people_manager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that script doesn't work and/or is no longer available/compatible, I would be happy to see a badge on the Collections page showing "4/6" so that I know I've got 4 out of the 6 movies listed and I need to go into this collection to see what I'm missing. As it stands I have to look at each one every time I get a bug to try to fill out my collections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be SUPER HAPPY .. just to see 4/6 or 2/3 .. on the Collections page even if it doesn't know "What" movie is missing OR if it is an upcoming movie that is unreleased.. simply that.. the Collection ID listed/associated with the movie, realizes something is missing and it deserves another look. Surely the API of the themoviedb.com "Should" show that movie "count" per collection ID? -- Of course, then it has to be able to display in Collections and work with the custom display for Covers addon. I can only hope it happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbarylski Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Would it be possible to allow adding a trailer to a collection? At least then we could manually curate the collections to determine what is missing, and add the trailer as the placeholder for the missing movie.

MORPHEUS Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Is it possible to get a report which films are missing from a collection (officials with metadata)? For example in The Lord of the Rings- if you have the 1st and 2nd then the report will list the 3rd. you are missing : The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King - 2003 - tt0167260 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
