This function is very good, but combined with some situations I encountered in the process of using, can developers optimize it? ========================================================================== Firstly: Can emby write the information of "episode intros" to the NFO file? In this way, even if I modify the directory structure, or share this information on different servers. Instead of wasting a lot of time and traffic to retrieve when I create a new media library. Because I accidentally modified the video directory structure, so emby must re obtain the "episode intros" information again, which will do a lot of repetitive work. ========================================================================== Secondly: Also, if an episode in the series does not get the "episode intros" information, how should we operate to get it correctly? ========================================================================== You can add the following fields in NFO. XXX records the time of "episode intros": <intros>xxx</intros> (just an example) In this way, even if the directory structure is modified, emby can judge the "episode intros" information of the current video through the NFO information, rather than blindly re obtaining it again, which is too stupid. Or whether you can quickly add "episode intros" information in the metadata editing interface, so that you can quickly modify the information of a set, which is convenient and fast. ========================================================================== The above is my suggestion for the "episode intros" function. I hope developers can optimize the use experience on this issue. Thanks again to the developers, thank you~

From my understanding, only from a DV profile perspective. There is still no movement from ffmpeg on Dolby Atmos or other discreet audio attributes, thus emby will still not have complete codec identification vs MediaInfo.

HI. Don't point the library to your individual TV shows. Instead, create a parent folder on that drive ("Shows", perphaps) and then point the library to that one folder and it will pick up all your TV shows. e.g. D:\Shows - would be where you point your library and then you would have: D:\Shows\Walker Texas Ranger D:\Shows\Stranger Things ...

I have now updated the main post with a new version for the back button fix (thanks Happy2Play!). Not sure what you mean. If you mean the CSS file you can find it at the bottom of the main post in this thread and it works for me.

Version 2.4.0.0 Feature Added verbose log to info section. Added link to open up generated playlist. General optimization and clean up. Added Sort (Then Bys) to Sort Jobs. Added Sorting to source list. Added Multiple Add functionality to PlaylistEditor. Added user based criteria for following user metadata fields: Favorite LastPlayed Play Count Played Bug If any playlists backend files are corrupt, skips loading the playlist and moves the file to a *.failed file, and continues to load. Currently just crashes out with no notification. Fixed bug when source was playlist or collection not picking up source items. As always, code is https://github.com/ShanePe/Emby.SmartPlaylist.Plugin/releases Happy Testing Oh and let me know if I have missed anything. Verbose log: Detail -> Log button (Only if a log file exists, log is cleaned on ever playlist run, each playlist has it's own log) Link: Any 'user related' fields will now have a user selector: Sort Then By: Sort Job Multiple Add functionality -> Editor SmartPlaylist-2.4.0.0.zip

Not sure if there are actually many people using emby that also read a lot of books. However with Ebooks being a hot thing right now this idea popped into my head. I have a lot of ebooks which I generally keep on my normal PC. However this way it has no back-ups cause I only back-up my server to an external location. So I was thinking about switching them to my server and then I thought I can also put them in the emby folder. The request may be a bit out of the ordinary since emby is more for playing files and things rather than reading, but could a reader be implemented at some point in the future? A book library and an implemented reader, specially for mobile devices I guess (phone/tablet), but perhaps for browser/theater? Would help me get rid of yet another app and have all my "media" in the same place Edit: If you liked this also take a look here for ebook expansion https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/80398-book-serverreader-incorporation-suggestion/

Sorry, I'm generally a noob with emby, I've used it off and on for the last couple of years, but just decided to make the complete switch from Plex, so forgive me if I'm using the wrong terminology. Just wondering if anyone is working on a project to get images from theposterdb. They have a lot of Collection artwork that can't be found anywhere else, and lots of themed artwork within those collections. Would be nice to have an agent that handles the downloading of those. For some reason, I don't seem to get all of the poster artwork from Emby that Plex seems to get, for instance, my Garden of Sinners posters all looked similar in Plex, but there's 2 of them that aren't getting the poster images that Plex seemed to be able to find. So having a single source repository for Poster art would be awesome. I am also having the same issue with my Hana to Hebi Live Action movies, both the ones from the late 70's and early 80's as well as the ones from the Early 2000's. The posters just aren't showing up despite them being matched appropriately.

Hi, Emby for Tizen 1.2.9 is installed and it tells me there is a newer version available, so i downloaded the newest but it is still the same version and the message shows up again.

I reworked my original 4k transcode killer to just target hevc transcoding and instead of being on a schedule job to be on playback reporting. I only tested on web ui/ios/shield. https://github.com/bakes82/Emby.HEVCTranscodeKiller Update 4/8/2022 - Added paused video killing.

I have a .mkv video with embedded subtitles, and external .ass subtitles in other languages within the same directory, e.g., - Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night (2021) Bluray-1080p.mkv - Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night (2021) Bluray-1080p.Chinese.ass The problem is when streaming with emby, Kodi shows embedded subtitles only, i.e. the .ass is not detected at all. But when directly playing the .mkv file with Kodi via windows explorer, both of the embedded and external subtitles are detected and loaded properly. Emby web player detects both of them as well. Kodi version: 19.4 UWP Emby server: 4.7.5.0 Emby-next-gen: 6.2.15, plugin mode emby.log is kodi debug log when streaming with emby, direct.log is the one when directly playing via windows explorer

ML.net is a very powerful and cool utility, once you build your dataset (which can be done very easily). Honestly, could be worth a look for the core dev team.

Because my video is always changing, usually just the change of directory structure, but it will also cause the re acquisition of data. Since this function is owned by emby premiere, it may be debatable to write what I suggest into NFO, but I still hope that there is a way to avoid repeated acquisition, because it will take a lot of time. Just because of the change of directory structure.

@cayarslogged in and we ended up with a script to update permissions before my backup job runs. Cayars is going to check with Synology if they have any pointers on a better way with DSM7. THANKS CAYARS!

Well, this is embarrassing. Turns out my nginx settings and certificates were out of touch with the current defaults (the swag container in unRAID). Updated those, purged the Cloudflare cache and everything is rosy. Thanks for your question. Made me go and check all the reverse proxy settings (which I should've done to start with).

Hi. That setting is telling Android to only output stereo but what the app queries is what the system can accept as an input. So that is why you see the behavior you do. Why do you say that option doesn't work very well?

Thanks. For some reason, Artists now have a run time associated with them which is triggering this.

ahh I wish I wait a min before I type all that, since @ebr explain it better

I need to add something here, it best to organize and separated you folders collection (tv, movies, cartoon .. etc) As your example above you using external drive as D:\ Ok, do a main folder, let assume you only have tv series and movies, so do main 2 folders un drive d: As example for tv do "mytv" and movies do "mymovies" (it any name you like, just as put as example) Now move all your tv to "mytv" and all your movies to "mymovies" folders. When you add a library to emby point to top folder, example: For tv, point "D:\mytv" For movies, point "D:\mymovies" As a reminder again, any tv series you add should as I explain in my last post.

To let emby know it a tv, simply add sub folder as "season", as example: d:\tv name\Season 1\tv name s01e01 ... etc.

Thanks for the clarification.

These are device/client setting that do not apply across all clients. Clearing cookie/history will reset these option. But cannot reproduce logout/login losing these settings. Movies stay on Release Date and TV stays on Last Episode date added (Edge). Now changing to FireFox will not have these sort options as it is a different client. Nuking History in Edge resets the options also.

HI, yes it's due to private mode. We're not storing the preferences on the server anymore due to the new layout options. The options that you would specify on one screen might not be what you'd want to use on another.

Thanks, not sure what fixed it but after an emby server update and shield restart it worked again. I did check and the keyboard was set Leanback. Thanks for the help.

Ah nerts, I wonder what's different about tonight. Appreciate the follow up regardless.

Yes, I just installed it and tested again. Same result.

Limited testing here. It seems to work well. I am pretty excited by this feature! Thanks to the dev team!

I'll add to the list, though these have likely already been considered: sort by headings (asc and desc) [e.g., how Wikipedia allows sortable tables] custom ordering of headings add other fields (e.g., composer)

https://mdblist.com/ Contains ratings from all relevant sites for movies and tv shows. Service also has api access and should be easy to implement. With one integration it would be possible to have all the ratings for movies and tv shows. Ratings are updated every 4 days. Edit , description from web site :

As a preparation, I already attached screens of the recording job, the recording schedule and my library listings for my example. As I mentioned, this now happens with all scheduled series' recordings - all configured the same way. I will post the log for the recording tomrrow evening. And please ignore the mixture of german and english - I just turned the app's language to english for the screens for the other board member's convenience.

OK, this should be resolved in 3.2.55+. Thanks.

Sorry for the confusion. This is just the list of NextUp episodes. I don't have the NextUp plugin installed.

Yes, that is the best course of action if possible but the next release of the app will use a portrait container for mixed libraries. Thanks.

Hi, welcome. This might not be the most exciting answer but I would probably suggest the defaults unless you have a reason to change them. I'd make sure your Shield audio settings are also configured appropriately based on your audio setup.

So insight to the new Layout.... So you can name your intro selection to allow for ease of identifying BUMPER OPTIONS & SINGLE (Specific) INTROS FOLDER OPTIONS - Allows you to Choose a folder and a number of videos to play from that folder in a random order. TRAILER OPTIONS This is then populated in a story board which will let you see the order. There is no limit to what you can add and you can set it up however you want. Some scenarios would be. if you have a specific folder full of trailers (not trailers in folders) then you can just select the folder option and set that folder. If you wish to select internal trailers use the trailers option and then set the Select Local Trailers to 2 The options are literally endless now. I plan to allow for drag and drop to aid in re-organising. still plenty to do but Progress!!!! Here is the story board

Hi @mofa2016, I think you might have posted this prior to trying out auto organize 2.0. @Luke I believe there may have been (or maybe still on going) issues with some of the providers. I'm seeing this error across the board. But we're keeping an eye on it. I'll let you know if thing change.

The codec section breaks the plugin at the moment. I’m working on a fix for it right now.
