Seeing how all events get jumbled together in Dashboard Activity section, making no distinction between them and making it hard to sift through once particular event is searched for, I reckon some icons should be presented there in order to differentiate events, particularly: - User Authenticated (with Lock icon denoting SSL) - Playback Started - Playback Stopped Rough mock-up attached.

Wow! Did Microsoft just kick off the "A.I. Wars?" I can't believe I'm saying this but, I think I might be switching to Bing.... Did I just say that? Unreal... We'll have to see how Google responds with LaMDA tomorrow afternoon... But, what is for sure, everything has changed with how we are going to be using the internet, and as of right now it is Microsoft and openAI leading the charge! I love how they keep saying "...we need AI in the real world, not just in a lab.." ... Ahrrrmmmm Google.

Let's be honest here we need to have Google and the like take their search engines back to the mid 90's. That's when you searched for something and got relevant results.

@Cheesegeezer Every time I see the title of this plugin, for a second I think it's a plugin to watch the history channel

JF came from a old version of Emby when it was open source. But they changed the core architecture and I don't know what else since I have not looked at it closely. So just dropping the code directly into Emby is probably not an option. I suspect they could look at that code and do the equivalent in Emby. JF is also released under the GNU GPL. Closed source, commercial projects like Emby need to tread lightly when even looking at GPL code. That's the legal reason people have mentioned.

Hang on.... Jellyfin is using Emby code... I get they are open source and as Thornbill said previously, GPL needs to be honoured (for open source)

i'm in lol haha.... @MBSki it's not the work chef has done, he has done an amazing job getting it to almost sync.... but the real issue here Emby core opening up some stuff for him to utilise or for emby core team to create it themselves. You should go and read this thread from the start. and get a feel of what has actually been achieved by @chef

That should save you a bit of time it's a bug in the beta Just beat me to it, only a two finger typist

Dicky... it's a beta thang bud from my main servver on 4.7.11

Just installed watch history (not a lot of use to me as I only have admin and one real user)

Hmmm nope.... because the time line and intensity of a show would be useful to other users. if you watched one episode one week and then another episode the next month, but showed only a season poster, it's different to a user spending all sunday cramming in 12 episodes of a show because they are engaged. i'll check out my main server on this. Thanks Dicky!!

We can set up an elaborate ruse to get them to reveal their github page.

I'm running 4.7.11.0 not the beta so maybe that's the issue

Sorry have never used Lidarr. Don't know if it uses existing tags or looks up its own. And do not know if they utilzed the exact same tags as every program is different. Emby uses ffprobe to read the tags and if multiple versions exist there can be conflicts or order of precedence. And depending on if Emby has already imported media when tags change will/could require media Refresh.

At work right now, but thanks for pointing me in the right direction I'll take a look and repost if I need more help.

Crazy thought, but does anyone still have connections with any of the Jellyfin devs? Maybe we can get their code. Probably a non-starter, but just hoping there's a chance that we could speed this along.

Hi, can you please describe what you're asking for in more detail? Thanks.

Hi, well you've got transcoding sessions going on here. That's going to be a resource intensive process.

This would be a good place for you to start I think: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/blob/master/Emby.Drawing.Skia/StripCollageBuilder.cs It has everything from loading images from a path, a bunch of different modifications, and saving the final image. You can use the SkiaSharp docs to reference as you go along: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/skiasharp.skbitmap.resize?view=skiasharp-2.88 In terms of the UI, I imagine you'd have to set up your own API endpoints to carry out actions based on actions taken in the UI. That's just general plugin stuff.

Thank you so much! I will go through this again. What I noticed yesterday. I did not have cinema intros plugin installed, nor did I have trailers plugin installed. Here's how I got this to work before I saw your post: Install trailers plugins -- without this trailers didn't work Install cinema intros and enable them for movies and TV episodes -- without this none of the local files would play Make sure that there are no dot files inside of the folders with files, this was a weird one!!! I copied the starter pack files from a mac machine to the network share and it created a bunch of hidden DOT UNDESCORE files which played intros intermittently. I am guessing it would take a list of files but would fail to play those and just skip them. So I had to run this command to delete them all find . -type f -name '._*' -delete Output ./MPAA Ratings/._NR.mp4 ./MPAA Ratings/._G.mp4 ./MPAA Ratings/._R.mp4 ./MPAA Ratings/._PG.mp4 ./MPAA Ratings/._NC-17.mp4 ./MPAA Ratings/._PG-13.mp4 ./._MPAA Ratings ./Phones/._Turn Off Cell Phones PSA.mp4 ./Phones/._Roxy Cinema - Silence your phone (western).mp4 ./Phones/._Welcome to the cinema.mp4 ./Phones/._Don't Talk PSA _ CAPTAIN MARVEL with Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson.mp4 ./Phones/._Robots Mobile Phone Policy (2005).mp4 ./._Phones ./._Template - Old BBFC Cert Slide 4K.xcf ./._.DS_Store I will do some more testing today to see how it goes. By the way where did you get that coca cola running man feature presentation bumper? I would love to get these in 4k/atmos

If the tracks are consistently tagged with the same musicbrainz artist ids, then they'll be merged under the same artist, even with different names. But you'll only see one of the names in Emby. So yes, aliases can cause duplication if tracks are not tagged with musicbrainz artist ids.

Thank you Grim.

oh, hmmm, let me see why it hasn't already been added. I probably need to inheret from something.

Just for anyone searching in the future that may have this issue. If you're using a Synology NAS, other people have reported that having the 'Raid Resync Speed Limits' on 'Run Faster' can cause performance issues during resync and scrubbing operations. Mine was indeed, on 'go fast' mode. The dialog looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/E2Irpkx.png It's recommended to change it to 'Lower the impact' so it doesn't affect services while running. I have done this and await to see if this fixes my issue. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to wait a month or more until the next time scrubbing happens. Admins: Maybe this is something that can fit in some FAQ somewhere with regard to using external NAS devices or network shares. That Emby is very aggressive with maintaining SMB connections when using network shares and anything that causes those to blip or drop can cause issues, and to recommend setting this setting properly on Synology NAS units, as they are one of the most popular ones used by home users. Your call

Will do. I did discover a handy bit of software called DbPoweramp. This can batch check all mp3 in /Movies for example, normalise, strip tags, add fade to start and end, cut to 60 sec clip, and more. So, as an interim measure, this fixes it. Plus the bonus of the fades. I have kept some original files to test with later though on the next server update.

Hi, if you're developing against the beta then make sure to use the beta nuget package. OwnerId is deprecated in the beta server and parent id should be used instead.

ah, I knew it! He control "AI" as I am still chatting with "SAL"

@Cheesegeezer That indeed great news buddy! Well Done!

Might be a good idea to add the Watch Together instructions to the first post under the announcement of the feature.

"all shows with Numbers in their name requires a 3 level structure." is the way to solve this issue. thanks Happy2Play

That's good to know! I don't see any significant reason to upgrade otherwise for me. My NAS is like 99% media for me. If it ain't broke I don't need to fix it.

Appears to be working in my test on OpenSubtitles.

I found the problem, I forgot to add the video group id to GIDLIST. After that, emby server can discover the decoder.

@Luke 2.2.7 seems to have solved the issue, Thank you for the prompt support

Ideally yes.

There is a separate issue with iOS 12 that you can follow along with here:

Not sure if the options are available on platform but App Settings-Transcoding.

Cuales es el proveedor de metadatos principal en tu servidor? TheMovieDB o TVDB? Recuerda que la estructura de tus archivos debe coincidir con la de tu proveedor de metadatos. También es posible que para esos episodios en especifico aun no haya traducción en la base de datos en de tu proveedor. Además es importante saber como tienes configurado las opciones de idiomas en tu servidor, ya que eso puede variar un poco la fuente de los metadatos.

It's okay, I'll re read the one you posted up there. Hopefully, it tells me something. if you do happen to be looking at logs though, the one to look out for would say: "unhandled_exception" for the log file name. I'm wondering if it's a transcoding thing, while using strm files. But, best not to speculate, I'll try to figure it out.

I'm sure if we learn anything there we'll conform to gpl.

Hahaha Bill, but it coukd be A Emby History Channel lol with softworkz as the narrator

Hey fella, not a bad idea actually. I would still ned to get the users info as this is where all the lastplayed info is stored. but you changed my thinking approach to some stumbling blocks that may fix them. And i think i can possibly incorporate this too. my concern is possibly the parental control side… but lets see how it turns out before addressing that.

I love the idea of this type of channel. I was glad to see the ability to not include hidden user, that would unfortunately have been a deal breaker for my setup. But I also have the problem of some users not wanting other users to see what they are watching and when they are watching it. My suggestion would be to have an option to not show users at all, just show what has recently been watched/popular on the server. Please correct me if there is already a plugin to do this.

Five years and six days and still debating ...

This is kind of a minor request (but I know Plex handles it better). When using the web app and you edit a poster for a movie, etc. it would be nice if after you select the new image and go back to the list of all movies that the page would reflect the new image. I would think there's some sort of page refresh that you could do to reflect it? Only way I can get it to show the new image right away is back out of the library and go back in. Just nice to have it immediately refresh so you know it took affect. Thanks!

You don't say.
