It surely does, via OMDB Api. Either scrape only Ratings via OMDB: Or scrape with Universal Movie Scraper in which you can fine tune each category provider: Edited April 10, 2021 by GrimReaper76 Append 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaruba 17 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) I created a service for advanced ratings in Emby (and other media center apps) and keeping the ratings updated: https://ratingposterdb.com/ I am also in the process of trying to get a plugin for it available in the Emby plugin catalog: (there is currently a giveaway on this page) This service can either be used with the dedicated plugin or with the RPDB Folders app: https://github.com/jaruba/rpdb-folders It has many advantages, including making the ratings visible in catalog pages as well, here are some screenshots: Pinging all relevant parties: @NightwingDG @Romek123 @spon @meatball @nonstatic @fonzie @horstepipe Edited April 14, 2021 by jaruba 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3308 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 To potentially assist those thinking about checking/subscribing to the service, will share my experience/observations (note that I did opt to use RPDB Folders app as opposed to Emby plugin, due to the way I'm curating my collection): Subscribed through Patreon the other day for Tier 2 and made a trial run on small library (40ish items) to see how it actually behaves. Tier differences are well documented and explained on project site, imho Tier 2 is a minimum. Upon subscribing, API key was received by email shortly thereafter and inserted in RPDB Folders web-interface: Setup was pretty straightforward, most notable decision is to decide which ratings you actually want to be displayed on posters - I settled on Metacritic+RT Audience (reasons will be explained/shown later). "Add Movie/Series folder" is self-explanatory. "Edit Movie/Series Poster" is used if your Tier allows it, to change any default poster to TMDB one. It does take some manual work, as there is only Search field and no chooser/picker, but that was explained as there are users with 40,000 items and listing those might be a hag, which does make sense. "Check requests" lists your used/total requests, as each Tier allows only for a certain number of those, i.e. 6,000/month for Tier 2, with each higher Tier accommodating more of those. "Scan Settings" is where you actually configure behaviour: Mostly, use it (or no, as it will count against your requests) to keep ratings up to date. All that said, on to actual usage: Initial scan took few minutes and 42 posters downloaded, I reckon it took few minutes at the most (note that all posters are downloaded as poster.jpg and backgrounds as background.jpg; depending on your artwork naming scheme, they might or might NOT get precedence, as discussed in plugin thread). Upon Library scan, they were all shown in Emby: (Web app) Some slight poster color scheme/backdrop padding issues there, but nothing major. However, it all does look better in Andoid TV app: (Android TV app) I've found that it works best when Logo is not preferred in App settings: In this way (as mentioned above when choosing which ratings to show), one can have: IMDB, RT Critics, Metacritic and RT Audience ratings shown at Item Detail Screen, and I reckon that is really everything anyone actually needs. All that said, few of the observations: - Dev was very responsive and explained in detail every query I had, great support - Note about poster providers: IMDB posters are preferred (and only choice in Tier 1); however, Dev expressed willingness to change preferred posters to TMDB ones (as there were other requests for it) and it should happen inside next month or two - As per Dev, all posters are locked to 580px width, with possibility to introduce larger sizes in higher Tiers in the future; personally, I have no issues with that All in all, it was pretty straightforward setup/run and I fully support the idea and implementation in general (although I will put my usage on hiatus until TMDB posters become preferred as I cannot stand IMDB ones, I'll keep my subscription alive to support the project) and I do encourage anyone to try it out as I already had a rant about ratings implementation in Emby in this exact thread and some others and I reckon this is something that is more than welcome in Emby ecosystem. Great work, @jaruba. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien_ 24 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) this is awesome I just subscribed to the API. this is very cool. thanks Edit - again this is very cool. Ideally some time in the future Emby would enable us to add the MC score a long with the movie synopsis like you see for Rotten Tomatoes. But this is definitely a great start to using MC ratings.

zebo51 15 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 +1 I'm not sure if this is what has been added to the 4.6 release but I like it. I would also like to see it on the home screen though when viewing latest movies, shows etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
