[Feature Request] Auto Sync Theme Media during / after incremental sync

If a new item is added to the database, currently I have to run the syncing theme media process manually after the Kodi sync completed.

 

Is there a possibility to implement an auto trigger after syncing, during syncing or once a day?

Not a bad idea. Actually, I would love to rework that section of the code and turn the theme sync into an "enable theme" setting, which would automatically add any themes found as the item is added to the library.

 

The reason being, many people are having trouble finding the sync theme media option....

That would be a perfect solution. [emoji106] Perhaps with an intital question mechanism when setting up library like with music. @@Angelblue05 Should a do a separate bug thread? Recognized when music theme is direct streamed, the files created by Emby server in transcoding directory don't get deleted. Or is this desired behaviour?

Well it's a bug. But truth is, since It's not a seamless process to sync themed media, I didn't add the deletion on reset. Once the idea of adding theme as new content is added is implemented, the reset will remove that folder.

If you were using direct paths this would not be an issue for you.

 

What is fairly worrying though is it looks like the tvtunes Kodi addon will soon be departing from the official Kodi repository: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=287562

 

If that does happen, skins will not be able to auto install it...maybe we would be better off going back to how I had it implemented in the old MB3 addon which did the theme playing without using tvtunes.

 

One for the future possibly :)

Unless there is a mass exodus and every skin becomes available on the 'Unofficial but legal and curated' repo under discussion :)

Indeed, that would be a good workaround..especially if they allow mods for skins to be included :)

I'm one of these people having trouble lol was this implemented to be automatic? or am I still missing this sync media option?

Not yet, it will come but right now the focus is on updating playback.

 

You can still sync your themes manually, by launching the emby add-on > sync theme media (should be one of the last options in the list)
