TV Collections Option

In Movies libraries, on the top bar I have options for "Movies", "Suggestions", "Trailers", "Collections", "Favorites", "Genres" and "Folders".

 

In TV libraries, this becomes "Shows", "Suggestions", "Upcoming", "Favorites", "Genres", "Networks", "Episodes" and "Folders".

 

I'd like a Collections option for TV libraries as well. Otherwise I have to go to the Collections library which also contains all my other collections, making it harder to find the collection I want.

It's possible for the future, but in the meantime you can always enable the option to group the series into collections.

I'm mostly thinking of my sports collection, which is in a TV library. I have things like "Dallas Cowboys' Greatest Games", which is a collection of the ten "episodes" featuring those games.

 

I'm not sure what option you're talking about but I don't think it would apply in this case.

He's talking about the display option to collapse items into collections and I don't see why it wouldn't apply in this case.  It would show your 10 games as that collection in the view.

Oh, the "group items into collections" option? No, that doesn't do anything because the collection consists of episodes, not shows.

I was using the AutoBoxSet collection and then I got the wild idea why not create another collection for my David Attenborough Documentaries and I found its just a jumbled mess inside the collections folder.  I think having the ability to make collections like we have for libraries would be ideal.  My TV library is fairly large and it can be annoying having to scroll up and down looking for a specific series when a small curated collection would make it a breeze.  The genre tab almost gets it right except when the genre isn't properly defined for a series.

This definitely needs a bump. With Plex I used to have a smart playlist for random TV, or documentary TV which I’d throw on when I didn’t know what to watch or I’d want something in the back ground. Having collections and being able to just shuffle them would be a great addition to Emby.

Hi.  You can do this now.  You just need to access them via the "Collections" library.
