crusher11 851 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 If a film has multiple tags matching intro files, does it play all of them or pick one at random? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 851 Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 Additionally, if I play a playlist or shuffle a collection, will codec intros be played before each film or only the first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4330 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Hi, I don't know the answer to this but would think it's pretty easy to test. Just grab any small video and rename it properly as shown in the KB article https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44001848833-cinema-intros Pick a movie with the different tags and try renaming for video and audio and then see what plays.

crusher11 851 Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 I suspect it picks one at random, I'm mostly just asking to make sure I haven't screwed something up. Other than the shuffle issue, in which case I don't really fancy playing through a whole film just to test, if someone actually knows the answer.

Luke 37022 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 To answer the original question, yes if there are mulitple it will pick a random one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 851 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Why not play them all? Wouldn't that make more sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 851 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Is it possible to have the codec intros play without having a trailer play? Cinema Intros refuses to let me set the number of trailers lower than one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crusher11 851 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 But if I set the trailers to zero, it gives me an error and refuses to let me proceed. If I leave the trailers field blank it defaults to two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8250 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I guess the easier question is what are your setting for the plugin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Don't know haven't tried it as mentioned but half the fun of Emby Admin is playing with feature combinations like this. Easy enough to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2063 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 but trying is to easy - oh hang on.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I'd have done it myself but don't use have/use intros, just trailers. Guess I could have just copied and named an extra properly and given it a test run but sometimes it's best to just try things yourself as well.
