As the title sais.

 

I have a movie called "Cars 2", which is the title.

This movie I have in german and french, which are 2 files in 2 completely different libraries.

 

Today I started the french version and the home screen now shows BOTH Cars 2 movies.

This already happened to other movies too.

 

AND another problem:

sometimes when marking a movie as watched, another movie with the same name in a completely different library get's marked as watched too.

 

 

These 2 issues are absolutely breaking the good user experience.

But technically it's more than incorrect to do that.

I assume Emby just goes over the database, searches for all entries with the title of the movie which is running currently and marks them.

Many many years ago I learned how to program and this in the early days we called "Poor code" or "Spagetti code".

 

It's the same movie but not the same database entry.

As said, technically totaly incorrect and not ok for a software for which I can donate money.

 

Facts:

- 2 movie files

- in 2 completely different libraries

- with 2 different languages set for the libraries

 

Not the same movie at all.
