bcm00re 18 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I have a movie that is really a documentary that spans across two DVDs. Web and Android Emby do fine making available both parts, but on Roku I only see the initial part. I have another that was a mini-series spanning four discs, and with Roku I seemingly only have the ability to watch the first one. On the other apps I see the second+ parts under Additional Parts section that Roku doesn't have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles 1911 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 If you play the first part, the app will build on the others as a sequenced playlist. But you are right, you can only see the first one. There is no "Additional Parts" row. There should be. This can eventually get addressed. I might find time today to put something together.

ebr 14856 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I highly suggest you combine these into a single file. There is absolutely no downside to doing that these days and it is very simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcm00re 18 Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 If I can get to the latter parts after watching the first one, then I can live with that. What if I just started the second part then stopped watching. When I come back to play it, it will still start right where I left off on the second part -- correct?

speechles 1911 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) I went ahead and did the work to give you the missing additional parts row on the movies detail screen. This is now pending approval. I want you to be happy without cumbersome work required just to watch your items. It should be simple. It should just work like the web client does. I am sure they will value this addition and it will become part of the new beta. Apologies this wasn't there sooner. You can keep doing what you were doing without the burden of doing anything more. Thanks for the issue report. I like issues that can be solved very quickly. Edited November 1, 2018 by speechles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcm00re 18 Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) In my folder I have files titled "Last Chance To See - disc1.m4v" and "Last Chance To See - disc2.m4v" but Emby only shows me one title "Last Chance To See" which only plays the first disc -- so there no way to play the second part.
