TCEmby1 8 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 So my premium administrator account cannot see some titles in the main library when sorting alphabetical. I CAN find them when searching by name. A new user I created can see them in the list alphabetically... what could be the issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCEmby1 8 Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 nope--everything says 'any'. If I look up by genre, the movies show up in those categories... help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3349 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Do you have any restriction in Folder-base access/Parental Rating/Tags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make that new user admin, delete original admin, rename new user to deleted one. Edit: Alternatively, make that new user admin, rename original admin, remove privileges, rename new user to your admin name.

TCEmby1 8 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 this seems like a really severe option. The admin account is THIS one. The main email premiere member account. The new user I made was for a friend with no password. Any way without deleting my account. I have no filters on or parental permissions on.

Happy2Play 8422 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Can you go over a specific example, if you can search and it appears you have a setting difference from a new user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCEmby1 8 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 More info: When I sort by 'Date Added' my movie library shows 770 titles. When I sort by 'Title' it says 631 items... not sure why.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCEmby1 8 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 OK so heres what I think is happening. In some views, the collections are being shown as collections, which hide the individual movies inside them. My main 'movies' library is set up to do this, but viewing by 'date added' seems to override this. Its mixed with the other sorting options so its not just this. So, I like the collections to be lumped in together when they are the same series, ie 'star wars' or LOTR etc.. BUT I have some collections that are like 'movies to see with dad'.. I'd prefer these not be hidden when listed. I guess theres no way around it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can add/delete as many users as you want and add/revoke admin for as many as you want, as well. Linking any of them to Emby Connect is completely optional. As for your movies issue, you either Group items into collections - or you do not. So no way to group some and avoid some. What you can do, however, is make a Playlist for "movies to see with dad", that way you will still have them 'grouped' in a way, but they will show as separate items inside your Movies library.

TCEmby1 8 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 OK good to know. I do love how all the franchise films can be lumped together. I'll have to use playlist then for the other items. Thanks. Emby is still light years ahead of Plex..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
