mbguy 38 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Nowdays folder rips have a very limited audience compared to years ago. That means there will pretty much always be other things prioritized ahead of them now, unless there's some type of critical problem preventing basic playback. Hi Luke, thanks for the informative response. As a committed Emby Premiere user, I totally hear what you are saying that people are moving away from folder rips (disc-based usage). I am not sure what "features" others are asking for Emby to provide to folder rips, but at least for me, even if it's a just simple "display" or "link to the folder" without native Emby playback capability, I will be more than happy, because for folders rips, I'd rather launch custom player like the Zidoo Media Player on my Zidoo box that supports full blu-ray menu and navigation. Is a really basic "display" or "link" type feature viable? Or are people asking for full Emby functionalities support for folder rips on Emby, which is not me by the way?

Luke 37253 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Don't we already have basic display? And some of our apps support external players that you can use to launch them with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegov 21 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Hi - is there any way to set the default version of the multi version episode? For example I have an episode which is completed dubbed in one language and another episode dubbed in another, so I've created the following structure: ShowABC\Season1\Episode1 - Eng.mp4 ShowABC\Season1\Episode1 - Jap.mp4 However Emby is always selecting the Jap version be default even though its not alphabetically first. It would be could to have an option to set the default episode in a scenario like this. Is it possible? Thanks, Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 861 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 If it's just a dub why not put both audio tracks in one video file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegov 21 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Slightly different content in each video for different markets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itgreen9 9 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 How do I separate shows so they are 2 different episodes and not linking as multiple versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add the English version first, then add the JPN version second. BTW, JPN is politically correct and the sanctioned 3 letter code for Japan. You should be able to use the 3 dot menu to split them.

Can you elaborate on your setup. All items are manually ungroupable. 2 minutes ago, cayars said: You should be able to use the 3 dot menu to split them. There should be a button in Media info of each item. Now if the merge is happening on two separate folders for the show then you will need to disable "Automatically merge series that are spread across multiple folders" on the library. But could have negative effects on shows you want grouped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how to do that... I am basically looking for direction. I have two episodes of a show. They have the same episode number but different names and they are grouping together. I want to simply have two different files in Plex so they play back to back in order and can be added to playlists. If someone can direct me to how to manually separate them that would be great.

Carlo 4331 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 If they have the same series and episode number they will be considered a grouped episode. You would have to change the number on one of them. Can you give us a real example with file names of the problem files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8356 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 If I understand correctly the only way it to manually split each episode. But there may be other side effects but would give you the playlist by version option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
