VirtualTV plugin

Maybe something has changed on Emby side. I haven't tested or touched the code for actors since more than a year. I will look at it.

Thanks!

@Kyrunner The actor channel rule is still working fine here.
Do your Kurt Russell movies have a runtime? That's essential for the plugin. For example strm files are missing a runtime until they are played for some seconds.

I rebooted the server and tried again and it worked with just the actors name

Is there a way to have certain show play at a certain times?

No, not yet.

Having a strange issue with logos. I had set them in the plugin when I set it up. After a period of time the image file seems to go missing, leaving only broken image icon on the plugin page. They also go missing from the EPG. The path(s) to each logo are still present and valid. If I remove the path(s) the broken image icon(s) goes away. Re-entering the path(s) brings back the broken image icon(s).

I have fixed the issue once by removing all traces of the plugin and then reinstalling but issue recurred.

For the moment I have added the logos to the EPG manually.

Be a little bit more precise in your issue report, please. What do you mean by "not letting me select"?

How should my settings be set up for a continuous play of certain folders restarting after each file has been played in the folders? Mine won’t play

[pünktchen 1350]

After each file from all selected library folders have been played, it will just stop. In other words, it will only play the amount of programs that you can see in your tv guide for one of the channels.

[pünktchen 1350]

Edit:
For performance reasons i've limited the number of shows to play to 12 hour in "Playlist Playback Mode".
For "Continous Playback Mode" it's the number of items that you can define in the plugin settings.

You can't. It's all or nothing.

can you add it in a feature update?

[pünktchen 1350]

No, sorry. Emby's public API doesn't allow a guide refresh for individual channels and i don't plan to store the guide data in a custom database or something like that.

oh ok. well im having another problem. i created some more channels but they all say theres no program data available in the epg. they are created identical to my first channel that works fine.

I saw this when I updated to 4.7.9.19. After some delay the EPG did populate the data.

Apparently I used the wrong API key. After changing it problem resolved.
