I raised it back in 2014, almost 10 years ago.

@ebrThe view shown above from Airsonic is a really useful view that I think would be a welcome addition to all library types. Being able to select the columns to display (changes from default) for each library type would be ideal. Having the ability to assign this view to specific screens would be even more helpful, such as default when looking at seasons, movies by actor, collections, playlists, etc...

AmazonAudioBooks.zip Still some search improvements to be done! - Testing version. Not always fetching overviews - so I need to look at that. This is a webscraper, It searches amazon for your audiobook. Its up to you to check you can legally use this in your country - I accept no responsibilty. Use at your own risk. As this is a private use plugin and at no way connected to commercial use, copyrights are deemed "fair use" - for personal use in most countries, However its on you to check this where you are. For Audiobooks it fetches: Book Title Release Date Studio Poster Images Writers / Narrators (names only) Tagline Overview It does not fetch any Writers or Narrators Information or Images (when you click them) - it only fetches the audiobook information.. It only searches the book names, if I search the release dates or writers as well it usually doesn't find anything, so its possible to get the wrong book of the same name - just so you know. However so far for me, it has got the right books each time up to now ... theres still time to get the wrong book....

CVE-2022-3964 - QuickTime Encoder => Emby never encodes to QuickTime formats CVE-2022-3341- Nut container format parser => A format that isn't used by anybody => Risk: app crash (only the ffmpeg process would crash, not Emby Server) CVE-2022-3109 - NuppelVideo Encoder => Emby never encodes to this format => None of these CVE's is relevant in the context of Emby Server

If you look everywhere this type of information is, you'll notice it is neither editable nor optional. That is because we make critical playback decisions with it and we cannot afford to allow someone to edit it to something they think is more appropriate and then have those be bad decisions. Now, I realize this information would not be used in that way but it creates a hole in the dam of this type of information and many users would not understand the distinction between this "not really true" information that looks just like the other information. The bottom line is an album does not have any container or bitrate because it is just a container itself. We provide tagging for this type of user-defined categorization if you wish. That is from a display perspective. Now, as for searching or filtering, we can potentially provide those because we could show an album if, say any item within it matched the filter selections. We do that in other instances. Finally, what I now understand the OP is actually asking for is not an album-level property but, instead, just to show the track-level properties in the view. That is certainly possible.

With no intention to undermine completely valid FR, but this approach works just as well (and is even more elegant IMHO, as it saves a few clicks and some scrolling): It took 4-5 minutes to create 10 SmartPlaylist's Live Collections (1930's-2020's), they auto-populate, and all it takes to reach them is switch to in-library Collectons tab (or select Collections library from Home Screen) - since they're all named starting with 1 or 2 they're always placed on top in the first two rows, so basically 2 clicks and no scrolling away, either from Home Screen or within library, as opposed to click, click, scroll, read, aim, click to select desired Filter.

wow! nuff said.. Just +1 this but I don't think it will make a difference.

Would it be possible to group music together in decades, and then be able to play a decade of music ?? Napster, Spotify and other online music suppilers list their music channels by year and decades, which is very useful when you want an evening of 60s, 70s or 80s etc., so just wondered if MB3 could do that for our personal Music collections as well ?? TIA.

I'd really like to have 2 Factor Authentication added to the login screen. It's just this (optional) extra layer of security to help secure the server (which, especially if people use camera uploads) contains pretty private data. There are for every type of programming language quite a few libraries available, so implementation on a server shouldn't be too hard to realise

Pretty simple suggestion. I have multiple users for my Emby server. If I want to do continuous maintenance on the media, I have to tell everyone. some of them are harder to reach than others ( i.e. no Facebook or Skype chat etc. ) It would be great if say... on the admin panel, I could hit a check box that enables 'maintenance mode', where the server still runs does everything as normal, but instead of the login screen it displays a maintenance page saying the server is unavailable. Even better if I were able to directly put a reason in a text box that would then display on the login screen as well. Not really sure what others would think of this, but for me it would be quite helpful. mostly if I want to make sure no one is trying to access content I know won't work until I've done a full library scan again. Thanks for reading. -Kyle

Feature Request: Have User Groups and all settings applied at the Group Level That way you can just assign users to the appropriate Group and all settings will be inheritated.

It is really cool that Emby has the ability to support multiple versions of the same movie. It would be nice to have a setting on the client side to allow the user to set which version should be selected by default. This could be as simple a user-entered string, or it could be a list of detected strings to choose from. It could allow multiple entries and it would choose them in the order entered. On the Kodi side, it would also be nice to get the "Choose the Best Version for Me" option that the Emby app has.

Hi, I’d love that audio and subtitles choice would be saved per show, according to what you select on the last episode you watched. The main audio/subtitles parameters is a good point but there are many cases it is not enough and you need to adjust audio and subtitles at the beginning of every episodes. For example i like to watch Casa de Pale in Spanish with french subtitles, The Big Bang Theory in English with french subtitles, French TV shows in french without subtitles, ....

I have a fairly large movie collection (5k+) starting with films from the 1920's and in the absence of "smart" playlists how about a filter by decade option? Filtering by year works, but if I want to watch something from say the 1950's I have to start navigating from the 1930's and work my up to the 1950's which is quite a few number of pages. Another option might be to have Years running vertically much like the alphabet when viewing by title.

I confirmed that I can turn off transcribing and direct play DTS-X videos on the G3. I used DTS-X files from demolandia.com. The audio plays just fine over the G3, surround sound works as expected. I only have 5.1, but it was a 7.1 channel sample. See below. If there are any other samples/formats you would like me to test just link them or let me know what profiles.

I reset the TV to default settings, uninstalled/disabled the pre-installed software and installed emby. Doesn't seem to be doing it anymore Thanks for the quick replies!

Hi, it's the equivalent of just doing scan library files. If enabled in your library options. It's looking for new and updated files in your folders.

That did the trick, thank you! This time I dragged the application to the applications folder. Everything works now. Cheers

Awesome, this seemed to do the trick, thanks very much!

SOLVED! Pihole apparently was blocking something... I'll pick it up with them over at their forum. Thanks for the quick response.Take care everybody!

It was on my local wifi, and my network interface was indeed set to public. Changing it to private solved both issues. Thanks a lot!

This one shouldn’t expire Fresh Discord. https://discord.gg/UKQwZyGFHs

When using your phone, is it on your local network wifi, or are you trying through the phone network? If on your own network, check that your computer's network interface is set to "private" mode, not "public". If using it outside your network, you need to open ports in your firewall and use your router's WAN address. Note that Plex can sometimes do things which Emby can't without proper preparation (which it does by sending your connection through its own servers, which you might consider an invasion of privacy). https://emby.media/support/articles/Remote-Setup.html Paul

Thanks to my friend LicDom, found how to solve the problem that Emby encountered with movie 4K HDR10+ and I prepared a tutorial that I attach here for everyone Kira is Here HDR10+ Metadata Deletion Tutorial.pdf

I appreciate it and perhaps I will move to a premiere license in the future, but I want to use it for some time first to be sure it works as I expect and my family is happy with it. (I tend to buy only lifetime licenses...)

I got it, thanks soooo much!

The request is not to show this as a property of the album. It is to show it for each track on the album... Which actually makes it the same request as this:

I appreciate your help. You helped me finally get it to work. Thanks

I think I understand now where I went wrong. I'm using a reverse proxy. Caddy is on the same server as Emby. I turned off "Allow remote connections to this Emby Server". I switiched it back on again and added ports 80 and 443 as the remote ports. Added my domain too and set "secure connection mode" as reverse proxy. Posters display now.

Because Movies are single items (with their respective container/bitrate), TV shows are collections of items (where each one can have - and likely does have - it's own container/resolution/bitrate). You cannot leverage MediaInfo on TV show level - you can do it only on movie/episode level. Sane goes for Albums, as they're collections of tracks - maybe they're all the same bitrate, and just as likely maybe they're not.

just confirmed this is working as expected in the Beta (4.8.0.49) All internal local address are reported correctly as the connecting device

Yeah it's sad that the dev responds with "Hi, yes this is a great idea for the future. Thanks for the feedback.", then proceeds to do nothing! Spending hours of time adding tags or creating crazy genres just to accomplish what a simple filter could do is painfull. The data is already there, you can filter by year. How hard would it be to group by decade?

Plex has it built in that you can have it setup to use SSL without having to create and install your own certificates. They teamed up with Let's Encypt. Any chance you would make that an option on Emby. Even if it was just for those that pay for Emby Premier.

We can add more info for editing in the metadata editor. Thanks.

Do you have it set to TV display mode in display settings?

I apologize for all of the uploads of Bulky. I seem to be in a loop where I fix one problem and cause another. Soon I will separate the VirtualTV Channels and the Explorer code into another plugin. Vic

User24 doesn't have too much hope. This filter has been requested by many users for so many years and the developer does as they please that I no longer hope to see a filter decades in the future. It is also for this lack of listening to developers and the absence of decade filters that I no longer use Emby and that I now only use competitive software... Yet it's something so simple to implement... In the competitive software, I use this filter EVERY day!

HI, the information is tied to the tracks, not the album. But maybe we could grab the container from the first track.

and now it works

@ShanePThanks for investing some of you time to continue developing this great plugin! I know some of the peeps on the beta releases of Emby will be chuffed your back and working on a release for 4.8...

HI, the hearing impaired status for subtitles, both internal and external will be supported in Emby Server 4.8: Thanks.

I've sent you a message with links to the logs and sample file. Thanks!

Hey Everyone, so I am back and able to focus on this for a bit. I have just created a small new release to get back into the "swing" of things. Seems I've missed a bit. Going forward could I ask that you log any issues/feature requests on the Github Repo, as this is easier for me to track what needs to be done, and I can get going.... Version 2.4.0.2 Feature Added Resolution Height Criteria Added Resolution Width Criteria Added Favorite (Tree Crawl) Criteria Allow sorting on Limited items for Shuffle playlist. (Shuffle will destroy and create new playlist, where as normal will just append/remove items that mismatch in filter rules.) SmartPlaylist-2.4.0.2.zip

Sounds good. I'm actually just (finally!!!) getting a cross platform, machine learning, matrix factorization movie recommendations algorithm loading and training in emby based on MovieLens dataset (a dataset of over 2M data points). So, I do intend on getting a tv show version of top picks happening very soon, I also think I can use this movie recommendations model to recommend top picks specifically to each user. Which is just absolutely Crazy. . So we might even be able to have an over all top picks of the server, and then a "Recommended For You" top picks as well!! Look out Amazon and Netflix (...maybe even... I might just say it... Plex )... Emby is about to Get Smart.

Yep me to, would love a 80's, 90's.. etc. filter.

Yep. I have both Plex and Emby installed. And this feature added to Emby would be great. Especially for a very large collection spanning from the 1900's.

Is there development for this feature? I really miss the decade filter, filter year by year is useless for me. Thank you to consider adding it.

Just found a new (test) plugin in the forums that does exactly what I am looking for: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/82776-new-plugin-smartplaylists/ Thanks saladin !
