Have your questions been answered?

My apologies, yes, I overlooked that help text. Yes, the scan media folder option is clear now; it will look for new content only - which is great. However, the 'download subtitles' help text is not that clear. Can you elaborate on that? Let's say I have 1200 episodes with subtitles. I'm adding 200 new episodes. What will happen during the subtitle task? Will it look for all 1400 episodes from the beginning or will it only check for the latest 200 and ignore my old episodes with subtitles?

This help text needs to be improved, but it does the automatic subtitle downloading if you have enabled it for your libraries.

Hi, where are you looking for it? Playlist creation is all over the user interface to be honest.

Hi, have you tried a different browser?

Hi, the seasons not showing is resolved for the next release. Thanks.

Hi, never heard of it.

Hi, does the help text underneath the title explain it? Hopefully it does, otherwise we've failed at that.

Hi, Can someone explain a bit more about these two scheduled tasks? Scan media library Download subtitles I'm planning to set a minimal interval here so that I will have updated content, but if I set this to every 15 minutes or so, will it cause server load or streaming issues? Assuming I have 1200 episodes across various series, every 15 minutes, will it scan the library and check for subtitles for already existing files, or will it intelligently ignore the existing files and subtitles and only look for new files/subtitles? Thanks

Did you try the transcoding option of the plugin? plugin config menu -> playback -> transcode audio" section and "transcode output format"

Thanks, today I'm busy, but will test it tomorrow.

It might affect the amount of data that can be streamed but should otherwise work just fine.

Is there a way to disable pin prompt for a user on a device? There's the initial prompt when you first login on a device asking about requesting pin each time. It's getting a bit tedious, I'm wanting to disable it but can't see an option to do so. This is android tv latest version, with emby premier server. Is there a way to disable it? Thanks

OK, it sounds like the mp3's have different embedded metadata than the m4a's. I would check on that.

Hi Luke, The album menu doesn't show up all the way, but the folder menu view does!

I actually tried that on the emby fire tv app and the just emby app as well too all this week I got the same error my server will show but it wouldn't let me connect says unable to connect. i also had Jellyfin app installed as well and had the exact same issues with Jellyfin. I don't know if it's something on my laptop or firestick settings that's stopping it from connecting

Hello cgreentx, ** This is an auto reply ** Please wait for someone from staff support or our members to reply to you. It's recommended to provide more info, as it explain in this thread: Thank you. Emby Team

I'm looking to build out a setup where the only content that shows up is in playlists. The back end wil be folders that are sync'd onto the media server by non-technical staff that are adding and removing content as needed. I'm looking for a way to easiliy build playlists for audio and video content that can transit over from various platforms (Windows and Mac) and handle the path issues. I'm not wanting to teach the content managers the complexities of editing playlist files directly. I don't see any way to build the playlists directly inside the Emby UI. Is there another path to get where I'm trying to go?

@hackthis02Okay...some "wonkiness" may remain. Watched episodes is double counting the special playback. "69 / 61 (100 %) +8 sp" should be "61 / 61 (100 %) +8 sp". I think.

Hi. Can you try searching the Amazon store for just "Emby" and installing that app?

And another thank you @hackthis02! The plugin just updated to v3.3.1.1. After doing so episode counts minus specials seem to be as expected. I'll post back if I see any other "wonkiness".

https://gitlab.com/ddb_db/embysweeper/-/wikis/Examples/Batch-Processing All of the wiki docs that are up there are now filled in. There are still some more examples worth documenting but this batch command documentation I think is the killer feature of this whole tool. It documents the actual setup I'm using on my server with this tool to manage people's media. The other examples I plan to document are around how to log to a file and how to produce the http log files in case of a help request. If there's a specific use case you'd like an example page made for, please explain the scenario and I'll see what I can do. Otherwise, the usage examples I plan on documenting are pretty much done.

There was a DLNA API key there that the system has created. I dont use DLNA and its deactivated, so I removed this key. I have added keys manually for autoscan and watchstate - neither of which are forward facing to anything remote or users. I also FW limit access to my server from only the country I have users.

You can not log into the website, as when you enter your email address the password field autofills with a 'strong password' suggestion. It does not allow you to delete this to be able to input your actual password.

Switching the port protocol to TCP/UDP seems to have fixed it to some extent. I can open the remote access page when on mobile data but it's not a stable connection and jumping through the timeline of a video immediately brings it to a halt (might be due to my terrible network reception at home). I'll test it again when connected to a friend's/my workplace WiFi while the server remains on my home network. Would connecting the server via WiFi affect the performance? It's in the same room as the router.
