Dizzy49 94 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Other thoughts.... Love the guide, maybe add some color to the blocks. How about exclusions.... ie +Comedy, +Sitcom, -Animated, -Animation, -Anime In my Action Movie channel I don't want animated or G movies. The checkbox for everything must be true... Well, what if I enter Disney | Pixar for studio, but I know that they aren't all marked with Studio info, so I include Disney | Pixar in the tags. Now it won't show up unless it's it has a studio AND tag with Disney | Pixar. If I don't mark it, does it act like and OR? WHERE Studio IN ('Disney', 'Pixar') OR Tags IN ('Disney','Pixar') ? Just trying to work out all the ins and outs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innate 1 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I think I found a bug. Refresh guide data was hanging at 0% and would not update. I had to restart my server in order to get it to stop. One of my channels I pointed to an empty folder for bumpers/commercials with the intention of throwing some videos in there at some point. After I cleared out that field so it wasn't pointing to the empty folder it would finally refresh the guide data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuffyToesToo 280 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I feel like I missed a step somewhere, can you advise? I've followed the instructions on the first page, and everything is working, save that I have no drop down or anything to choose Library Folder. Thank you.

Have you saved the config one time after entering you API key and then chosen a user? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave this a quick try previously and it didn't work, and I just haven't gotten back to testing. How did you use the tags? Did you tag episodes, season or just at the show level?

Ideally I'd like to have a channel with new (unwatched) shows. So do I set that to 2019, or 2020? Release date is for Episode data. On 6/27/2020 at 1:26 AM, Dizzy49 said: Rating would be nice so we could easily create a kid friendly movie channel Just create a kids user profile. The parental rating restrictions are respected for the user profiles. On 6/27/2020 at 1:26 AM, Dizzy49 said: Possible to have Genres as a multi select dropdown? I don't know if things are Sci-Fi, SciFi, Science Fiction, etc. I know know if 'Action' will pick up 'Action & Adventure', etc. At least a help popup or something to explain better. Maybe some day, but currently that's has a very low priority for me. On 6/27/2020 at 1:26 AM, Dizzy49 said: Do the channels look at each other to make sure the same things aren't playing? No, sorry. But nice idea. I've noted it. On 6/27/2020 at 1:26 AM, Dizzy49 said: Music channels would be nice. Just display the cover art or video in the folder. Perfect example... During Xmas my wife puts on a YouTube channel that is like 6 hours of Xmas songs, and the video is just a fire. You can create a music channel with a music videos library. But a pure audio channel? Definitely not. On 6/27/2020 at 9:10 AM, Dizzy49 said: How about exclusions.... ie +Comedy, +Sitcom, -Animated, -Animation, -Anime Already implemented it in a private build.

In every input field there's currently only an OR condition. Between every input field it's either also an OR condition, or with the checkmark it will be an AND condition. So without the checkmark "All conditions..." it would be: ("Disney" OR "Pixar" in Tags) OR ("Disney" OR "Pixar" in Studios) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itgreen9 9 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Yes, I have saved the config settings with the API key in the VirtualTV app. I have chosen a user. The "Include Library Folders" field is empty, I can't add to it, I can't even get a cursor in it... I believe my API is saved correctly, but the instructions are to go to Dashboard -> Advanced -> Security but I don't have those options. I have an Advanced section in the right tool bar and link for API Keys. When I click that I click the plus sign, provide a name for the API, and click ok. A key is generated. The only other option I have is to delete it. I copied that key and entered it into the "Emby Api Key" field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be the first time that someone creates a new user just for the plugin, but the settings of that user doesn't allow access to any library. If that's not the case for you, then restart emby, go into the plugin settings, switch the user to nothing and back to the right one and then send me your log.

itgreen9 9 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Yes I can see the library and the channels in the guide. But there is no content in the channels. I have restarted emby multiple times as well. Should I have restarted emby after setting up the API key and adding it to the player settings but before I st up the channels?
