capitaineflam25 68 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Hi, i'd love that search engine look for tags in complement with the filenames. For example i'd like to tag all my family "ski" videos so when i search for the work "ski" they are listed. Or is there an alternative to do that with the actual features ?

ddurdle 75 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I can't believe only one other person voted for this. Perhaps everyone who created a duplicate request came here and +voted for this request, it would get some traction on adding this feature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36991 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 We do plan to incorporate tags into the search feature. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicmoon 141 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I would like to throw my support behind this effort as well. At the current moment, what use does Emby use for tags? If not for searching, what actual use do they provide for the end-user via Emby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funwithmedia 352 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I would like to throw my support behind this effort as well. At the current moment, what use does Emby use for tags? If not for searching, what actual use do they provide for the end-user via Emby? In my case I tagged a bunch of my media programmatically (I wrote a custom script) when I first transitioned to Emby, and there are many items that I tag when I add them to Emby. For me the end purpose will be to use the forthcoming Smart Collections functionality ( https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/58063-emby-server-option-to-auto-add-to-collections-based-on-pathattribute-matching-rules/ ) to base certain collections off of Tags.

riothamus 51 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 +1 here too. With Christmas coming up, it would be nice to be able to search for all of the Christmas movies that I tagged as "Christmas film". This way, when we search for other Christmas movies that don't have the term "Cristmas" in it (such as The Grinch and Die Hard) we actually get the results based on the Christmas film tag I applied.

Hi. With the web and mobile apps, you should be able to accomplish this now by going to one of those movies tagged that way and tapping the tag in the list.

However, my wife uses the Roku app and does not know what movies are tagged with what. She just wants to be able to search for a term and have it show up in the results. From a user perspective, being able to have tags available in search results would be a huge benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riothamus 51 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 No worries, and I appreciate your advice. Seeing as to how the next version of Emby has added Collections to search results, I'm just hoping that tags showing up in search results would make it into a near future release.

Diedrich 355 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 +1 for searching tags, I came here looking for this exact feature. My use case is to tag cooking shows so that I can easily and quickly find the episode I want, e.g. Search: turkey.... or thanksgiving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
