Collections are not in the Server Configuration Backup add-on....

[Peter Nent 71]

In de Emby add-on Server Configurnation Backup, the 'Collections' are not in the backup.....thus two questions:

• Is it possible that in a future release of the backup add-on, the Collections are added and backup as well ?
• Question: is there any way to manually save & restore the collections, or should they be re-entered manually ?

Thanks & best regards, Peter

But that folder would only give you images/metadata, as it does not make a Collection anymore.  Only item metadata will make a collection.

So from a custom metadata image standpoint sure it makes since.

Hi.  This plug-in is designed to backup your configuration, not your media or metadata.  Saving metadata to NFO files next to the media would be the best way to make them persistent.

In the end users need to backup their entire /metadata folder.

As for saving metadata with media cannot be done in this case as we do not support legacy folder structure Collections.
