theideaofit 0 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Surely it’s happened to all of us. The family sits down to watch something and it is unwatchable. It freezes or has a line through it or something. I use to try and skim content to make sure it was good. But as the library grows and grows there is to much to go through. I wish there was a media checker that could spot check your media for quality or bad files. Does such a thing exist. I have found that none of my problems are new and many have solutions. I just don’t know what the tools to fix them are called. Any tools that comb or filter media? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37994 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Hi, I think it's A great idea, but we don't currently have anything like this right now. Could be a good plugin idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceboy 2557 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Used a script that used ffmpeg to remove all non English audio tracks. That errored on any files with issues. Server ran at 100% for several weeks while it ran through my (large) library though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theideaofit 0 Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Those options are a little over my head and will take some time to decider but seem doable. I knew there had to be people doing it. It would make a cool plug in tailored for Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozi83 1 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I have been reading about a program called Tdarr that has a feature to check video files for errors. https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/blob/master/README.md Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
