OK so we'll do this now for music libraries.

Can I use my Emby Premiere Key on More than One Server : Emby

We've seen cases where users have had their reverse proxies configured in ways that might cause this. The leading examples that we see from time to time are range request headers not being passed along properly, and most recently, the issue caused by Cloudfare caching. That is why I always refer users to @pir8radio's nginx configuration.

I love music visualizations. I was thinking that a unique way to integrate visualizations in Emby would be to encode the audio with the video output of a visualizer like Milkdrop or ProjectM. The mux can then be streamed to clients as video (if the client has enabled music visualizations). Wouldn't that be cool? Sure, you sacrifice a little quality in the transcode but it would still be acceptable and by offloading the visualization to the server, even underpowered clients could potentially support visualizations that would be impossible given their hardware.

I feel the following filter & sort options are lacking the following: * filter by HDR * sort by video bitrate * sort by audio bitrate * sort by filesize * filter by subtitle language * filter by audio channels * filter by audio language Anybody have anything they would like to add to this list?

I'm posting here to gauge interest in this potential tool/utility - I use it for my parents and it works really well - but to be useful for the masses, it will need some more time spent on developing the code to make it more universal. However, before doing that, I wanted to see if this is useful as I don't want to waste my time.. What does it do ? It creates a 'Recommendations' library for each user based on items added to a Recommendations playlist. This library is then displayed in the usual 'Latest' list. As items are watched, they disappear off the list. Example (Actual) screen grab - (note 'Recommendations Row') How does it work ? A new library is setup and each user plus a global entry is given their own folder :- In these folders will be links (STRM files) to the real media. These are automatically created on a schedule via a standard playlist file (see below). Individual user based permissions can be applied to these folders - therefore, personalised recommendation lists can be created or globally set if added to the global recommendation playlist. So for this user - they will just see Recommendations for Rich and Global. The Recommendations 'library' needs to go to the top of the list for it to be easily visible :- Note - if there is nothing in the Recommendation library for that user (ie it is empty) - then the Row will not be shown. How do I flag an item as a Recommendation and to whom ? The script pulls the recommendation file locations from the XML playlist - thus you can just use the normal emby playlist functions to add or remove recommendations and add them to the relevant playlist. Anybody can add any entry to any playlist (as playlists are not permissioned), so be wary of that.. If you want everybody to see the Recommendation - then just add it to the Global Recommendation playlist. How often does it update ? Currently my script just runs every night and automatically creates any new entries added to the playlists. Now the initial library and playlist setup is done, this is now fully automated for me - I just add recommendations to the playlist and the following day it appears on those users screens. ... Of course, if emby allowed a playlist to have permissions and allowed it to be shown on the main screen in a row, then there would be no need for these scripts to hack a 'virtual' library... Any thoughts ? Is this worth progressing to make the initial setup more automated ?

It would be useful to have a "Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down" for music files, rather than just a "heart." Some tracks are in our libraries and we don't want to delete them, but we would like to exclude them from play when we queue up a full album or create a playlist by adding full albums. Examples: an awful track on an otherwise good compilation disk, or a spoken-word intro track on a music album. Being able to easily mark such tracks with a "thumbs down" would be very useful.

Hey this is a problem that I see allot. Can you give the option to delete everywhere. Some menus don't give you the option. Example. From main screen on shield I have latest tv shows. When I click on the show and say play next when the show is done if you click the ... There is no option to delete the show. I have to go back and then long press the show to delete. Version 1.6.65 thanks. The whole delete system needs to be worked on. When a show is done it should ask to delete it.

Go to the show/episode you want to sync. Select "More" (The 3 Dots ... ) Choose "Download to..." From there, you can choose your Google Drive & Upload Settings. Note: Last time I checked, playback from Emby is still broken, but everything else seems to work. For what you want, this is a better choice. The plugin is meant for transcoded copies to make streaming to different devices easier. Things get screwy when moving or deleting media.

Thankyou both - I knew it would be something stupid my end. The login UI not changing confused me. Works perfectly when I enter the PIN into password field.

No, I did mean first half of the episode, since fingerprint lengths cover a wide range of episode lengths. Just a possible way to mitigate false positives, even if there will always be some.

Just tested with Android 3.2.35, have no issues logging in by inserting PIN in Password field.

Hi. Exactly where are you entering the PIN? It should just go in the normal password field.

I'd rather the development effort was put into improving playback and organisation of local personal music libraries, rather than trying to integrate cloud based services. If you want to use tidal or spotify, then surely you use tidal or spotify, why go through another app that is designed to manage local content

It's to pass the current library scan options all the way through the save operation. For today's purposes, you can pass in null. I will add back the overload for the method that doesn't use that so that you can just omit it altogether.

Manually upload your best bet using rclone.

I'll dig some up but Survivor the other day wasn't skipping. I'll post logs in the development thread.

I've found it to be hit and miss.. A hit for downloaded content and mostly a miss for recordings that have been run through MCEBuddy with commercials stripped and converted to HEVC.mkv

I think if you search the css for i.md-icon that'll be the one. The third one that you find is the shortest and most general, so probably the one to go for. Probably best to just comment it out. Also bear in mind your image has a white background, and the theme is for a dark background really, not that you can't fiddle to your hearts content... Correct, but with 4.6.7.0 and 4.7 the code has changed making it harder to target and change these, per the final posts in the linked topic you have to try and target item with element selector as the unique identifiers no longer exist. The conflict is there are 2 navdrawers and using selector elements affects both drawers. Each drawer has different information. Example code the same for both drawers. Code from @cheftopic /*Custom Icons start*/ /*https://materialdesignicons.com/*/ html:root { --iconColor: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) !important; --iconWidth: 24px; --iconHeight: 24px; --iconTop: 2px; } /*Display*/ body > div.mainDrawer.scrollY.hiddenScrollY-hover.scrollY-mini.drawer-docked.drawer-open > div:nth-child(3) > div > button:nth-child(1) > div > div.listItemImageContainer.listItemImageContainer-square.defaultCardBackground.defaultCardBackground0 > i { content: ''; visibility: hidden; } body > div.mainDrawer.scrollY.hiddenScrollY-hover.scrollY-mini.drawer-docked.drawer-open > div:nth-child(3) > div > button:nth-child(1) > div > div.listItemImageContainer.listItemImageContainer-square.defaultCardBackground.defaultCardBackground0 > i:before { mask: url("data:image/svg+xml; utf8, <svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' style='width:24px;height:24px' viewBox='0 0 24 24'><path d='M21,16V4H3V16H21M21,2A2,2 0 0,1 23,4V16A2,2 0 0,1 21,18H14V20H16V22H8V20H10V18H3C1.89,18 1,17.1 1,16V4C1,2.89 1.89,2 3,2H21M5,6H14V11H5V6M15,6H19V8H15V6M19,9V14H15V9H19M5,12H9V14H5V12M10,12H14V14H10V12Z' /></svg>"); -webkit-mask: url("data:image/svg+xml; utf8, <svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' style='width:24px;height:24px' viewBox='0 0 24 24'><path d='M21,16V4H3V16H21M21,2A2,2 0 0,1 23,4V16A2,2 0 0,1 21,18H14V20H16V22H8V20H10V18H3C1.89,18 1,17.1 1,16V4C1,2.89 1.89,2 3,2H21M5,6H14V11H5V6M15,6H19V8H15V6M19,9V14H15V9H19M5,12H9V14H5V12M10,12H14V14H10V12Z' /></svg>"); height: var(--iconHeight); content: ''; background-color: var(--iconColor); visibility: visible; position: absolute; display: block; width: var(--iconWidth); margin-left: -2px; top: var(--iconTop); } Dashboard drawer Home drawer Unfortunately I currently do not see a way to change this with CSS for specific location.

Yeah totally, but with h265 at 3Mbps it's not that big, but often in use! BTW love your work, never told you even if I follow it since a long time ago. OFC I'm Premiere and don't wanna buy the full time licence, I prefer to reward each month like a patreon.

@quickmic Thanks for the replies and pointing me in the right direction re libraries to sync. My mistake was selecting "all" libraries to sync as I did with the old versions of the plugin. I didn't realise that this would sync home movies now.

Playlists are working fine for me on the Shield after a fresh install of kodi. I use both nodes and playlists to achieve certain widgets and menus i want for my homescreen(using skin titanmod) Smart playlists let me create more advanced playlists that aren't possible with the nodes available through Emby. For example: - A Playlist showing only Japanese movies from my "International Movies" Emby Library. - A Playlist Merging "TV Shows" and "Anime" Emby Libraries to have a single widget showing the in progress of each. - A Playlist showing all movies across all my Emby movie libraries excluding one of them I think there is a library node editor kodi addon that may help achive this with nodes but the last time I played around with that I found it difficult to achieve what I wanted.

Get Mac Studio with 10GbE Still waiting for new arm64 macOs Emby release to test transcoding speed - new ffmpeg, maybe with NEON patches?

CSS + Netflix Billboard Clone + Danmaku (bullet chat/moving subtitle comments) CSS modified from the forum, fixed bugs and parts that didn't work for me. Added front page Netflix Billboard, which is dynamic and updated according to the content provided by the backend server. Use Canvas to make a bullet chat system and pass in comments through an external open API from DandanPlay.

Looks like this overlaps with

I have a huge collection of movie files and it's hard to keep track of all of them and over the years I noticed that some dissapear without reason. So I'm looking for a utility that will create a database of the movies and will scan the directory and tell me what has changed if that makes sense. Kind of like a running inventory of all my movie files that's smart enough to let me know when one is missing

Has it changed since 2019 ?

The problem is that I literally don't see the drive in Emby, but I see it in Plex. https://i.imgur.com/sIP5QEH.png For me, Emby doesn't find any of my Network folders or Rclone. https://i.imgur.com/ys6t3oq.png Your rclone mount is way different from mine. I don't use any of that cache directory stuff. I'm not sure which part of yours is making it work. Here's mine: rclone mount --allow-other --dir-cache-time 96h --vfs-cache-max-age 48h --vfs-cache-mode writes --vfs-read-chunk-size 128M --poll-interval 2m --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 50G --vfs-cache-max-size off --buffer-size 100M --log-level INFO GdriveXPS: X: *edit* OK, I figured it out. At some point, I think changing my own rclone config would've made it work, but I also changed Emby Server.exe to run as administrator, and that makes it not see any network drives or rclone.

Agreed, my family would prefer to see an invite link rather than me try to explain why this is gonna work for them.

That kind of sucks, I remember the user will get an email with a link, then register himself at the emby website and was added automatically as user to the server. If my understanding is correct, the new way made "Emby Connect" 100 useless especially for those like me that use domains name to access emby. Why would I want to add the users emby connect info, for what purpose? it will just adding be extra unnecessary information with no gain whatsoever. Thanks for the clarification anyways.
