speechles Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) If they are reporting correctly by only sending start and stop events based on user playback starting/stopping, then playcount shouldn't be artificially incremented. if they're not then yes that would happen.So adjusting the stream via fastfwd/rewind shouldnt send a start event? It is the start event that increments that play count. So apps should only report the initial start and last stop? Just trying to see how we should handle this. If m.lastposition = 0 then m.reportplayback("start") Okay, fixed this on roku now. Manually adjusting the stream via rewind/fastfwd will not influence the playcount now. If lastposition is 0 the video is newly started. Trying to help this plugin work correctly with the roku, and other apps regarding playcount honesty. This post isnt off-topic, persay.

I think that would really help in gauging how busy the server is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) @@reggi How about statistics on which platform and which app was used to play things with? So you can see android was used to play 19 things. The emby androidTV app played 17 of them. The emby android app played 2. So you can see how you and users of your server consume their media, not just when.

Good idea, but when there is a "... stopped played" activity, doesn't that just mean the playcount is increased by one? If so, I just can keep using the playcount instead of looping over the activity log. Or am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) @@reggi No, it is the "started" activity which increases it. This is how the server works, so everytime you see "started" in the recent activity would increase the playcount. The roku app had a bug where fastfwd/rewind was causing multiple start reporting which was incorrectly increasing playcount. This is how I know starts increases playcount, as multiple stops do not. So if you want to match accurate playcounts to server activity use "started". Also the platform/app details would also look cool as a pie chart. Then you can see which platform and app has been getting the biggest slice of the pie.

speechles Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) Resume is a started yeah. So resume will still count as a 2nd playcount. But resume after fastfwd & rewind or pause & unpause isnt if you havent left the video player.

reggi Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 To all developers around Is there an interface so I can collect all played dates of a certain BaseItem object (or Movie and Episode)? I can only find the playCount and LastPlayedDate with the IUserDataManager.GetUserData(User, BaseItem) function but not all played dates. If a user watched a movie yesterday and the same movie today I will need the two dates to make my graphs correct. Maybe a solution is looping over all ActivityLogs and check all "Started" logs. But I don't really like that (too much processing power for looping over all logs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 the IActivityManager though has more events. look at the regular activity log in emby reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reggi Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Hi, I made a new update for the plugin Changelog - Added "all users" to dropdown - Changed graphs layout - "Views per ..." has 3 different styles (12 months, 20 weeks, 7 days) - Fixed some javascript bugs - Fixed statistics calculations I looked into the request about a Pie chart per used Devices/OS. Still working on it. I'm thinking about moving the "Top xxx genres" to 2 different Pie charts aswell as the "Top movie years" statistic. When you select the 12 months option but you haven't watched anything in 2015 then the chart will start from January 2016 instead of going all the way 12 months back showing just empty bars. Also with the "Views per day of the week" graph, If you haven't watched anything on Sunday yet there will be only 6 bars in the chart. I'm searching for a way to fix this!

reggi Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Hi guys, First of all thanks for the interest in my plugin. Even if it is still in a very Alpha version. After a long visit in the hospital I'm starting to get back on my feet. So that's why I didn't respond or updated the plugin lately. I'm in contact with Luke to make the code open source and I will try to start updating the plugin more and more in the future. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reggi Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone, I made a new update for the plugin so that it will work again in the current last stable version of Emby (3.1.2.0) Nothing new is added to the plugin, just fixed some lib calls. I also made a public repo on github with the code, you can find it here: https://github.com/mregni/statistics-for-emby-server I still have to do a LOT of refactoring!! I will try to do this before added new stats. Issues/thoughts are always welcome Statistics 0.0.3.zip Edited January 1, 2017 by reggi 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
