Blueeyiz702 219 Posted August 1, 2015 Author Posted August 1, 2015 And i just noticed as i was reading in forums,that you should have a IBN folder i dont? its called metatdata and has all the folders listed it should except 2 key ones,the general folder and the mediainfo folder,anybody can tell me why,do i need to rename metadata to imagebyname?
BATTLE DONKEY 98 Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 Newer installations have a metadata folder instead of the original imagebyname folder. You don't have to rename it, leave it as is. To use your folder artwork you can simply go into the web dashboard, click on the TV show you want to add the new folder for, click edit, images, then upload image. Either browse to where u have the image saved or just drag and drop onto the square that opens up and hit save after

BATTLE DONKEY 98 Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Do you mean the list that comes up asking if it is the primary, backdrop, logo, fanart, thumb, etc? If so, then select primary. Primary will always be the cover for movies/TV shows/music. Once u upload it u should see it in the list of images as primary and when u browse ur TV shows u should see the same image as the cover of the show. Then repeat for the rest of your shows

Blueeyiz702 219 Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 BATTLE DONKEY,also where the blue writing is that shows action/sci-fi/thriller can you edit that in metedata manger to just one catagory so you dont have the same move in 3 different folders?
Raff 51 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 BATTLE DONKEY,also where the blue writing is that shows action/sci-fi/thriller can you edit that in metedata manger to just one catagory so you dont have the same move in 3 different folders? Those are in the metadata manager under Genre. Just curious - why would you want to limit your collection to one genre?
Blueeyiz702 219 Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 Those are in the metadata manager under Genre. Just curious - why would you want to limit your collection to one genre? not my collection,just certain movies that have multiple listings,or is it better to just leave them as they are?
Raff 51 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 not my collection,just certain movies that have multiple listings,or is it better to just leave them as they are? Sorry, "collection" as in "all your movies" - not Collections as in the display option in Emby. I leave them so if I am in the mood for an Action movie, I can see Historical, Thriller, Sci-Fi, Martial Arts, etc. movies that are also Action all in one place. I was just curious why you thought Chappie wasn't an Action and Sci-Fi movie. Regardless, the setting you are looking for is Genre near the bottom of the metadata screen for the movie. You can add and remove them manually if you wish.
Blueeyiz702 219 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Posted August 8, 2015 Thank you raff,and yes it is a action Action and Sci-fi just not a thriller.
