theusedversion 35 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Is there any way to force Emby to return more than 16 movies when doing a search? Is there some file I can edit to have it return something like 50 results or something similar? This has probably been asked before but I couldn't find any threads about it. I tried searching.

daedalus 430 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 but keep in mind, that has to be edited again after every update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLetham 0 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I tried doing this and it worked for the web app but not for the iOS app. Is there a hard-coded limit for iOS display, or is there an alternate work-around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37070 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 It's something we are looking into improving. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmblemJD 17 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) Is this still being looked into @Luke? 50 max results with no way to increase without editing non-persistent config files is very limiting (pun intended) On that note: Where can I even find the mentioned setting / config in the docker version of Emby Server? I cannot find it in any of the config subfolders: cache config data logs metadata plugins root transcoding-temp Does it need to be added in the system.xml?

EmblemJD 17 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I have now identified the file with a diff and merge version respectively. Unfortunately even when increasing the query.Limit values in both and restarting the server still only 50 results are being returned in the web view. /docker/overlay2/1348b53e87fbf1ca35256dda6b4c6e9c59f848de3207d5391084883d5a734d7c/merged/system/dashboard-ui/search/searchresults.js /docker/overlay2/1348b53e87fbf1ca35256dda6b4c6e9c59f848de3207d5391084883d5a734d7c/diff/system/dashboard-ui/search/searchresults.js I am getting more and more frustrated with the state of search in Emby which does not seem to improve for years now. I love this project, but having less control in an actual media library than I used to have in Windows Explorer is becoming a major pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adminExitium 173 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Those are the docker overlayfs-specific files. You need to edit the file directly in the container and restart only the server, not the container. Restarting the container will lose any such changes. If you want it to be persistent, the easiest option would be to copy the file outside, modify it and then mount it, thus overriding the file included as part of the image.
