ginjaninja 533 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) was doing some maintenance work on my server (alot of scanning and metadata refresh involved) and smart playlists was regularly firing slowing down the server (i think unnecessarily). (possibly due to live playlists?). Had to uninstall the plugin to stop it. Perhaps an option to temporarily disable the plugin without uninstalling might help...or a check to supress activity during a scan/refresh metadata event, until those event have been dormant for a while?

Eigeplackter 75 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Had the same issue: In the end I decided to remove the plugin. I really like it, but without proper control over used ressources, I couldn't let it slide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using with a movie name like this works. But every time I save the date is decreased by one day. Here's after the save is this a know issue? @ShaneP are you been able to check it? do you still mantain the project? ty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having this exact same issue - just installed it and going to configure and it just hangs here? Also once this screen is displayed, the rest of the UI gets really out of whack.

PeterBoivin 0 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) Do you know if this works on Mac OS Silicon? I put the dll in the plugins directory "/Applications/EmbyServer.app/Contents/MacOS/plugins", restarted Emby, but I don't see it in settings.

tattmg 1 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) If I'm not mistaken, I could have created a playlist containing TV Shows with a specific genre using this plugin. I just tried but to no avail, I can however make a playlist of Movies with a specific genre. Can someone point me to the best filter option to achieve this? Plz see snip below as an example...

Edit: Btw, in your screenshot you need Genre (Tree crawl) and preferably "contains" instead of "is".

tattmg 1 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Follow up question, can I create a playlist/collection comprising the previously created collections? When I choose Type: Playlist, I get a blank screen after selecting Source Type: Smart Playlist (Execute). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Create a playlist that is subset of another previously created playlist? It would be based on what criteria? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tattmg 1 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) I have created four collections: Kids Action, Kids Animation, Kids Adventure and Kids Anime. I would like to create a single collection (Kids Collections) which contains those four collections as there are twenty other collections in the collections folder. In this way I can easily share as needed but if there is a more efficient way to handle this, do let me know.

You can either have those 4 collections separately or create a new single collection using same (multiple) arguments and subarguments used in those 4.

Thanks for the info, guess I’ll have to go the single collection using sub arguments route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzStringer 6 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Hi When i have this collection the "Sort by" doesn't seem do do anything, i have the EpiMode set to series and I would like them to be sorted by name asc. But the sort order seams totally random Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3261 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 6 minutes ago, BuzStringer said: But the sort order seams totally random That are likely sorted by Release Date, as within collection there are only 2 sort modes: chronological or by SortName (that is Emby core limitation, not SmartPlaylists). Edit Metadata on collection itself (three-dot menu) and change Display order to Sort Title, see whether that gives desired results. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of this has always been a bug or that fields have changed after releases. But a minor fix. I have fixed a few other things and will put out a release over the next few days. @ShaneP hey man, just wondering if you've managed to take a look at this yet?

GrimReaper 3261 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Not knowing your server platform, as it appears some Linux flavor, there should be plugins folder under server programdata folder, not system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronicRhetoric 0 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Hey all. I have Emby installed on an Unraid Server and I don't see a way to install this plugin from the WebUI. Is there any way to install this plugin on Unraid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaycedk 371 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 You need to login to your Unraid server. Go to shares. then appdata -> Embyserver -> plugins and upload the plugin. Restart embyserver and plugin should load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronicRhetoric 0 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Clicking on "AppData" simply brings me to the "Share Settings" page. I don't see anything here to upload a plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaycedk 371 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 To your fare right click these buttens under view. You need to watch some videos about Unraid. Spend some time to learn you os Spaceinvader One - YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
