Hello

I am new to emby but I think I have everything installed/configured correctly but can not get any trailers to play before a movie.

 

Emby Version 4.0.1.0

Installed on ubuntu 18.04

Premier Member

 

Tailers plugin installed and configured with following settings

Cinema Mode settings

Playback settings

I have tried with browser & 2 different roku boxes but cant get any trailers to play.

 

Have I missed a setting somewhere?

After adding the trailer plugin did you perform a library scan and let it finish?

Yup,  have done a few full library scans. Just did another one to be sure.

 

Have uninstalled & reinstalled plugins but nothing has changed,  can not get a trailer to play

Can you try checking the boxes about trailers from older movies as well as trailers from movies in your library? Please let me know if this has any impact. Thanks !

I think the plugin just needs an update so it can populate itself again. Something changed in the sources it is polling data from making it unable to work properly. @@Luke is trailers plugin broken? It spins and spins for me on the web app. Roku does the same.

Have you browsed into the trailer channel content at all?

Hello Luke,

 

Yes, If I go into the channel I can play content from the Archive section, Upcoming in theaters section, nothing is listed in the coming to bluray/dvd or coming to netflix sections

 

but none of it shows when I go to play a movie,  only local trailers shows.

 

Just noticed that in the Cinema Mode settings I have Include trailers from movies in my library unchecked, but that is not working as that is still the only trailers that play is local content

Luke,

 

I'm running 4.0.1.0 on a QNAP and have the same issue.  I've posted in another thread, but this one seems to be the most active.  I have the trailers plug in installed and it populates that channel.  I can go into that channel and click on trailers and they play just fine.

 

Custom intro videos are randomly playing (as they should), but often it doesn't go on to the actual movie file.  Regardless, I have not been able to get Cinema mode to play a trailer.  I'm attaching my server log here for reference.  This log should also include the main movie not playing after the custom intro.
