Can you please go into one of those genre views and then post the EMC log?

 

Thanks.

Where are the logs located for EMC?  I have found the server logs, but looking for EMC logs.

Movies by Genre is working in the first subview entering a library.

 

However, Genres from settings within the library does not.

 

Here's what I did: 

Selected Blu-Ray Movies library

Selected Movies (now looking at list of movies)

Chose Config (little gear icon)

Selected Index (Genres, Actor, director, etc)

Nothing displays, only 2 options, NONE and CLOSE.

 

Have attached the MBClassic Log to hopefully diagnose what's wrong.

Thanks.

Ah... that's a different animal.  Thanks for explaining.

 

I think what we're going to need to do is simply remove that "Index" menu.

Really? That's the fix? No way to get it working? I really find it quite useful myself.

That's just not how the system works anymore.

 

We have views instead.

Well, I discovered something playing around with some settings.

 

 

Under Configuration/View Options/Top Level Views:

 

I UNSELECTED Show movie sub-views (previously selected)

Now when selecting a library I immediately enter the library (list of movies)

 

NOW when I select Config Menu (little gear icon) THEN index:

It works!  I see the following options:

 

NONE ACTOR GENRE DIRECTOR YEAR STUDIO CLOSE

 

So you have to NOT SELECT movie-sub views on the Top Level Views for this to work.

 

So, PLEASE DO NOT remove the index item from future releases. 

 

The main reason I use Emby is for the indexing of a large movie library.  And the this relational indexing is a very powerful tool.  For some reason it used to work for me, even with the movie sub-views selected.  But I can do without the sub-views to have the indexing capability.

 

Hope this might help someone else wrestling with this.  I don't know how many of us WMC users are still left!
