Luke 37994 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 We actually used to do this, but many users found it to be a mess with the large number of tags being imported, so that's why it was removed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBubba 3 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 Couldn't it be considered for an advanced option that is defaulted to off? I see a lot of options similar to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enrique8316868 0 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Thanks Luke. Like I said, I have been playing around with the VirtualTV plugin and having more metadata would be very useful in creating the channels. Any other plans to include additional metadata sources otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ulanov 10 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 As suggested on this closed forum page (scrape tags and keywords), it would be great to have Emby natively scrape TMDB and IMDB tags. TMM does this, but would be terrific not to have to make this a manual, two-step process. My use-case example is that I continue to value greatly being able to trace movie writers (in order to follow the career the same way one can a director or an actor - sometimes the same person but on the same or different films, such as Preston Sturges). I'm OK that this isn't an Emby default, but I like to be able to add it through scraped data, and having those tags natively would be great. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riddler84 44 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Would also like this feature. Until the day Plex Meta Manager is compatible with Emby, this would be a possibility to create collections based on keywords. I would prefer tags from IMDb, but since there is already a TMDB API connection, it would be a lot easier to get them from there, instead of scraping them from the IMDb website. Jellyfin is getting them from TMDB btw. But they're failing with the integration of the filter options. It just opens a large select field, which slows down everything and you can't even search for specific keywords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why though? I feel like this limits Emby's potential. Plex for example gives you three different rating sources you can choose from: TMDB, IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes. In my opinion, TMDB is the worst source for ratings. I think IMDb is much more accurate, because so much more people are voting. Getting data from TMDB only also rules out critic ratings, which is weird, because you can enter a value for this in Emby, and it will show you a "Tomatometer", but this data is not automatically retrieved from Rotten Tomatoes^^ Was this planned, but scrapped? The "Top Picks" plugin makes use of this and shows an RT rating. Same goes for tags. I think they are much better from IMDb, just because more people are entering them and voting for them. But that's just my opinion and I just ask questions Edit: I just noticed, that the Top Picks Plugin also receives the community rating from IMDb^^ Edited January 29, 2023 by Riddler84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3607 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) Emby also provides IMDB and RT ratings - coming from OMDB, so they're available and accurate as much as they are available/accurate/updated on OMDB. IMDB data costs - and that cost is way out of reach. https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-6em5woz5oidg4?sr=0-7&ref_=beagle&applicationId=AWSMPContessa#offers https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-wdqq4hg3bcbws?sr=0-1&ref_=beagle&applicationId=AWSMPContessa Edited January 29, 2023 by GrimReaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just included it as metadata source and now the ratings are coming from IMDb and RT. That's some progress, thanks^^ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

podonnell 18 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) +1, would like to see these tags visible within the client. Having a way to click on a specific tag and see similar titles, or just have much more than a few very generic genres is very helpful when browsing titles.

Luke 37994 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I guess the question is should we import these as tags or as something new. Like for instance, calling them Keywords. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevormoss 6 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I think 'keywords' is more descriptive of what's being discussed here. I don't want to tell you what your design philosophy should be, but I would think it would only make sense to develop another feature separately if tags and a proposed 'keywords' served a different functional purpose. What is the intended purpose of tags and how is it different than what what's being discussed here? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we really need another level of categorization? Yes, these are very good points. Here's an extra consideration... In several previous threads/posts there has been discussions about both Tag and Genre hierarchy, where people using many Tags and/or Genres have wanted an extra sub-level as a way to group their Tags/Genres into more manageable categories. If this type of hierarchy feature was ever implemented, then perhaps it could then make some sense to have Keywords as a sub-level of Tags? E.g.: Tags Parent level: Tag Child level: Keyword Genres Parent level: Genre Child level: Style Style is already well-documented as a method of defining sub-genres for Music. Is there anything similar for Keywords and Movies??? Having the two levels of Tag/Keyword and Genre/Style, with the option of creating many-to-many parent-child relationships, would give Emby an extra level of flexibility for those that require it. Casual users could just use Tags/Genres as the default option. Serious users could turn on the sub-levels of Keywords/Styles. Power users could create their desired parent-child relationships. Would having these levels be a useful way of implementing Keywords and increasing overall Tag functionality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
