There is a newer one, it's just marked as pre-release so you need to check the box in visual studio to enable that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 12 hours ago, Sammy said: What's Plan B? There are a couple of options, and the latest nuget didn't work to fix the issue. Just give you a folder to put what you want in and it picks a random intro to play, similar to all the other folders Get the codec info from the item's stored info rather than checking the currently playing stream and return the first video and audio codec properties. Thinking about it, quite possibly option 1 could work better and split that down to audio and video folders too, so you could play a video intro first (Dolby Vision) and then a audio intro after the video (Dolby Atmos). Then i could add in the option (tickbox) to use information from video container later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Ok so i've knocked out the quick fix. Dll file is at the bottom of this post. Drop this into EmbyServer/ProgramData/plugins and overwrite. Version is 1.0.0.7. Make sure you restart emby server and test 2 things for you to test at the moment is codec folder. The way this works currently is it will just select a random video file in your codec folder now and play it. The other thing to test, especially for you Mounteys and Yanks is the Ratings. I think i have made this more robust now and have test with R and NR ratings and it's picking the correct ones now. Can i ask that you turn on Debug logging in your Emby server Log settings please Some progress is being made on the codec matching VantagePoint.dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy 737 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Randomly played dts-MA when file was DD as you previously indicated. Looks like it only needs a couple more lines of code but having several codec intros of the same type which are randomly picked each time would by nice as would having audio and video codecs both played. Nice work! Thanks for getting back to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for testing. so only things left is the Ratings tested by canadians and americans - mainly but any other country is welcome too And trying to get the darn Local trailers working too, with the online ones.

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 More Progress. Fixed Playing of local trailers after online trailers. New plugin DLL Below same version, so as not to mess up the plugin catalogue numbering Drop this into EmbyServer/ProgramData/plugins and overwrite. Version is 1.0.0.7. Make sure you restart emby server and test 3 things for you to test Codec folder - Should be working. The way this works currently is it will just select a random video file in your codec folder now and play it. I'm working on implementing a better way to display video, audio. Ratings should play the correct Rating now. Local trailers (ones in the folder named "movieName-trailer.mp4") will now select a random one and that after the online ones, this also respects if you have "only play unwatched trailers" enabled. Should have a full solution for the codecs by the end of the weekend. I will need some testing and reports back before i release to the store again. Thanks everyone VantagePoint.dll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 851 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I've never had an issue with ratings, I'm in Australia. Not sure if that's a relevant datapoint for you or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of the R and NR ratings, for some reason it was classing R as NR even tho the strings didn’t match. Same i guess with the Canadians on their rating system as they have C’s or something in all theirs. Will wait for some feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy 737 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I take that back.. In very limited testing it looks to be getting it right, NR is NR and R is R.. embyserver (6).txt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird, certain pre-rolls work, and others don't with certain devices. For now, I'm just using the one @Cheesegeezermade and all the devices are working; I can live with a one-trick-pony for a while until @Cheesegeezergets some free time to figure this one out.

Result - No Trailers played and also No Certificate bumpers played. Removed trailer link and the certs played again HOWEVER There is always a way around it lol so i just added the trailer path (no library just a hidden folder) to the Ads/Funnies section as i dont use that section and boom, random trailer plays and then the certificate preroll plays fine Obviously they could get the same trailer over and over lol however Hi everyone, fixes have been completed. See the post a couple up for fixes and a new dll for you to test. please note I’m working on the codecs currently and should have them working better than ever. thanks for your patience Edited May 6, 2022 by Cheesegeezer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CassTG 98 Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) hi @CheesegeezerAdded new .dll and restarted emby Placed the Codec path back in (i use tag based items i.e xtreme, banned, snowflake warnings etc but not video audio codecs) same issue as before, it does not play the tag based infocard video and also stops the official cert preroll video playback from starting and instead goes straight to the film Never had an issue with R and NR being mixed up, mine have always played correctly and still do Edited May 6, 2022 by CassTG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So either the format is not video or the link is incorrect. Can you please ensure debug logging is enabled, restart emby, play your movie and then send me the log, either here or in pm. ive put a lot of logging into the code now. So i should be able to better understand what’s happening but it all in debug. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
