abescalamis 82 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Can you add playlist support to the sync and download option? The feature is awesome for movies, but for music it needs to have a way to play a playlist. I wanted to use the sync and download for music to not use my phone data, I normally use all in 2 weeks. I use Emby on my phone and then I connect it to the car to listen to music. 8 2
abescalamis 82 Posted March 18, 2019 Author Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Hi, it's planned for the future. thanks ! Thanks Luke, I noticed that the "download and sync" function is mainly for movies, because for music is useless because of the following, I hope that you can give some love to the premiere features because cinema mode doesn't work either, those features should be the priority. 1) The user doesn't have any control in what order the music is play, regardless of the sorting you choose, the left picture is sorted by "date added" and the right picture is sorted by "Name", instead it creates the same playlist. 2) This is a screenshot of the playlist Emby creates and is always the same and if you try to save it, it will show the loading circle forever and the emby app has to be force to close, and that makes it pointless to change the order of the songs since it cannot be save. 3) The sort and filter menu is literally the one for movies not for music, the left screenshot shows the menu for the downloaded music and the right screenshot shows how it should be.

abescalamis 82 Posted April 2, 2019 Author Posted April 2, 2019 Yes we are looking into improving this, thanks. You are awesome Thank you! The most annoying and problematic of all, is issue #1, "not being able to play music in the order you choose in the sorting: Date added, Date Played, Name, etc". That issue alone makes it hard to use emby to play saved/sync music in the phone if you could only fix that issue, everything else can wait as long as needed. To play the local music that emby downloaded I'm using a music player that I got from the google store.

K1ng_Lear 192 Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Yeah it would be nice for iOS devices, too. I synced different music to my phone an want to play only a part of them by a generated playlist. Especially in a plane, where I don’t have a connection, it‘s really annoying to put the songs together by hand.
MBSki 1088 Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Is there an ETA on the feature to view the downloaded music in the playlist that it was downloaded from? I'm just starting to use the app and downloaded a playlist, but the songs aren't grouped in the playlist. Same thing with tv shows actually. It would be great to have shows and music grouped as they are in the library.
Luke 38803 Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 We're not there yet but hopefully soon. Thanks.
MBSki 1088 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 @@Luke, can you get this added to the beta now?
MBSki 1088 Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Yes, understand, but when? I haven't seen anything added to the beta in the past 4 months, could you at least add this feature?
MBSki 1088 Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 @LukeThanks for all the new updates today Luke. I didn't see this one get added. Is it high in the queue for the next update?
kamikaze_worm 2 Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Is still this in the works. Noticed it had been a while since last update. 2

necrosr 4 Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 Hi. Is this still planned? Do you have an estimation on when can it be ready? (I understand it cannot be a promise, just an estimation ) Emby offline downloads are not very useful to my concrete use case without the playlist download, and the apps are currently the only thing of Emby premiere I would benefit from. Thanks in advance. 1 3

KevinChahine 4 Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 This feature would really make Emby even more useful. Sometimes, I play music without wifi or data and playing downloaded songs though playlists would make things so much better. Also, if a song is already downloaded, it would be nice if the app would play it straight from its local store instead of streaming it over a network. Where I use emby, sometimes networks are choppy especially when traveling. 2 1

consolecable 1 Posted June 12, 2024 Posted June 12, 2024 Is there any workaround for this? I download a lot of youtube videos and like to listen to them with background play. I make playlists to keep them in order (to their youtube counterpart) the ability to listen to these playlists offline or any workaround to do this a different way would make emby perfect for me. Thats the only reason I still pay for youtube premium.
