saladin 41 Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 This is something I just have to try!!! EDIT: @@saladin A few questions: Is there a possibility to create a Library out of the Smart Playlist? Will users (eventually) be able to create their own personal playlists without needing admin rights, which they can share (or not) with other users? i will try do some research at this one and let you know i dont think so -> i cant find way to implement view available for non-admin user from server plugin perspective I am not be able to reproduce issue with multiple locations. Please try same rules with limit. From v1.1.0.0 you will be able to filter by Series. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add rules to group need "+" on some criteria element in that group not on the group element. Moreover groups have two predicates: and/or (All/Any dropdown).

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 @@saladin One other thing that needs fixing is that you are creating ALL smart playlists as AUDIO playlists e.g. the playlist created above has <PlaylistMediaType>Audio</PlaylistMediaType> in the xml created Movie/TV etc should be VIDEO playlist - otherwise it causes problems in Emby on playback of video in an Audio Playlist in some clients e.g. <PlaylistMediaType>Video</PlaylistMediaType> and Video and Audio are case sensitive - as i found when creating playlists via the API!

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Yes that would work - but... [edit]- also if have more than one series selected would mix episodes from diff series potentially with release date if the overlap - same with season number and episode number - need to play when we have the option So that needs adding to the sort options as well Edited February 22, 2020 by PenkethBoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 ... we really need a way to sort by Season and then episode numberFor only one tvshow that would be "Sortname".

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 yes - although not sure if the new V2 sorting (as not tried it) may affect this. but if not then sortname would work - although i would prefer the season number / episode number as well - as it gives more control and would not be dependant on sortname Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1251 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Another really important thing @@saladin: although only admin users can create those playlists, the result is accessible by every user. That's why an option for every playlist is needed where one can select the user that is taken into account for the "Played" sort options and rules. Other rules that are really needed: MediaType (is / is not) Video MediaType (is / is not) MusicVideo Path (starts with / contains / does not contain) Actor/Guest Star (is / is not / starts with / ends with / contains / does not contain) Director (is / is not / starts with / ends with / contains / does not contain) Tag (is / is not / starts with / ends with / contains / does not contain) Other rules that are nice to have: Codec (is / is not) Resolution (is less than / is greater than / is in the range) -> I would suggest to take the result of width x height for comparisson in the background Duration (is less than / is greater than / is in the range) Parental Rating (is / is not / is less than / is greater than / is in the range) Edited February 23, 2020 by pünktchen 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14898 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 FYI, when sorting episodes from multiple series, you need to use sortby "SeriesName,SortName". Edit: It is possible the sortName part will be not wanted in newer server versions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The code is very well written, especially since it can get very in-depth. I think I learned a couple things there. It will be but I think it is too early for now. i will focus on adding some easy to made changes like: filter by tags, sorting episodes, filter by path, set proper mediatype for playlists more tests for movie/series playlists and maybe find some issues reported earlier research more complex topics like filter/sorting by director/actors, editor available for non-admin users, etc. if no major bugs will be reported -> request to publish in catalog 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thuzad 42 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I just tried the plugin and I have several questions about how it works:- When sorted by "Most played" what does it base it on? On all the times the media has been launched by all the users? And where to find this information ?- Each playlist is customized to the user who will watch it ?

mhendu 0 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 1. Missing a few fields that are visible in Reports that would be helpful (Runtime, CommunityRating, ParentalRating, Resolution, ReleaseDate) 2. Missing fields that are not visible in Reports that are in my nfo files - but not sure which of these are actually imported into Emby (Country, Audio Language, Studio, Credits, Director, Actor, Languages) EDIT - Audio Language, Director, Actor must be accessible somehow since they appear on the movie's page. Really hoping Country is available also as this is one of my main use cases for smart playlists in Kodi EDIT - This post seems to indicate that Emby does import Country into the database, but I guess it's just not visible anywhere 3. Sorting is also missing some fields that would be nice (Year, CommunityRating, ParentalRating, Runtime) Took a look at the database. Most of these values are in the MediaItems table. Seems like CommunityRating is named as expected. ParentalRating is called OfficialRating. Country is ProductionLocations - but for some reason it only captures the last country in the nfo file. ReleaseDate appears to be PremiereDate in seconds from 1/1/1970 12 AM GMT. Runtime is RunTimeTicks, represented in tenths of microseconds oddly (a 105 minute movie is listed as 63134609408 in RunTimeTicks). Resolution is stored as Width and Height. Studio is under Studios. Audio Language is in a different table (MediaStreams2) as Language. I'm sure the developer either knows all this or could figure it out easily but was curious so thought I'd take a look to see what's possible. Disappointing that the database only stores one country, apparently, but at least it has that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibbes 430 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 The playlist should have a mediatype.
