latinumking 7 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Hi there I am missing a sort criteria "country" in the movie database. There are several selection filelds, but none being the country. As this information is in the imdb database, it would be great to have Emby sort the movies according per country selected. If this feature does not yet exist (checked Android and Windows player), I would suggest to geht that selectable field as a sort criteria in a later release. If this feature is well hidden, kindly enlighten me... :-) Cheers, Lati 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8882 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 But Emby does not use IMDB for any information, as it is not free. All information comes from OMDB, TMDB and TVDB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinumking 7 Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 But Emby does not use IMDB for any information, as it is not free. All information comes from OMDB, TMDB and TVDB. If I have a look at the information (.nfo) files of my movie collection, the "country" is available. So this field could be used as sorting criteria. The requirement is legitime imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikinjo 179 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Just looking to easily create collections of my european movies by country, no easy way. +1 for County sorting or automatic tagging maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4337 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 How would you do that? We don't have a country field in the metadata with this information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4337 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 TMM??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2066 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 "Country" is held in the library.db in the "ProductionLocations" field so it is "available" to be used the data will be very dependant on how good the source data is though TMM = Tiny Media Manager??

Carlo 4337 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Yea, info is available but I don't think is actually tracked right now. At least in the metadata editor this info isn't available. This has me curious. Anyone interested in this type of thing would you mind checking sources and report back what you see for something like "Game of Thrones". How about these movies: Gladiator (2000) Skyfall (2012) ... The Dark Knight Rises (2012) ... Lawrence of Arabia (1962) ... Baraka (1992) ... Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) These were all shot in multiple countries and pretty big name movies. Just wondering what type of "country" info is available for them.

PenkethBoy 2066 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Country i think is where the film was produced not where it shot so vast majority will be "USA" "foreign language" films for me, have Country as France, Denmark etc TV Series do not have any Country info in the nfo's or the database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2066 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Checking TVDB it does not provide Country in the metadata for a Series - probably why its not stored in the Emby db The Movie db does for a series for the one i checked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeplay666 2 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Still Hoping for this Sorting By "Country" or alternative sorting option will happen very soon ...so tired scroling if you have enormous collections of diverse movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awara 0 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 +1 for this feature, hopefully will be added, it's great when you want to watch for example a Korean movie you just filter that country Do it please guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8882 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Still can't be that straight forward when there are multiple countries. Atomic Blonde <country>Sweden</country> <country>Germany</country> <country>Hungary</country> <country>United States of America</country> Gladiator (2000) So it could be a matter of whether first or all are written in your metadata as I know my xml metadata only contains first. But Emby writes all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I was wondering if this was something you think you will implement someday, could be convenient, I wanted to show some french movies to my girlfriends and realised i can't sort by country I can see the field country, but is it even filled? I checked on a few movies and it doesn't appear to be (can't even search by country also) Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's not a country field (see the help text). That's a setting to determine which country's parental ratings to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingegang 3 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 It would be nice to have a country option. For example... When i want to watch only Korean movies. I can't search only that. But if i could look for it using primary language or production country... It would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
