CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 I want to cause a intro to be played before the movie (say werner brother intro) And I want each and every movie to have a different intro. How can I do that?
Guest Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) Hi, it's not impossible but I find the idea of having an intro for each movie very impractical, imagine a collection of 10,000 movies. You can have multiple intros and emby will randomly show your intros in the movies that are opened. You can also use tags to have a certain intro for a certain type of movie.

CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 Hi Luca, how are you? Mmm. To be honest it did not help me. I have the cinema intro .. I tried and failed. Yes I managed to put an intro before the movie. But then this intro will be before every movie I watch. And I want to watch a different intro for each particular movie
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 what is the tag codec? how can i do that ?
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 Yes I definitely read. I tried to act in the manner listed. And I did not succeed
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 Why not just create an option like Local Trailers. This way we can adjust 100 percent and assign a specific intro to a specific movie

They do not work off tags, the second option Codecs as the guide mentions. ie Codec h265 will play specific intro, DTS plays a specific intro.

I have 100 movies 20 of them are from Sony Entertainment How do I make a Sony intro run before I watch any of these 20 movies?

A random intro will be selected from intros in your custom folder.
Happy2Play 9780 Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 Didn't know about tagging here but seems self-explanatory here. Tag items and the intro but have never done this. Tip: With the use of Custom Intro directories you can make use of Tags for each movie/episode such as "HomeMovies". These tags can be added using the MetaData Manager. Make sure that Intros added to the custom directories above have proper tags in the files before adding them to Emby. You can use Windows or other tag editor to assist with this. This allows Emby to display your custom Intro for any movie tagged with the same name. 13 minutes ago, Happy2Play said: How do I make a Sony intro run before I watch any of these 20 movies? So you would tag the 20 movies with say Sony and the intro you want to play with Sony.
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 And how I tag those 20 Sony movies as Sony?

Happy2Play 9780 Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 @LukeHow is the is the Intro suppose to be tagged? As I don't see this working tagging a video file in Windows.

As I don't see this working tagging a video file in Windows. @cayars can improve the help article but you don't tag the intro, you tag the library item, and then the intro file name just matches the tag. 2
CAPRICORNX10X 68 Posted July 8, 2022 Author Posted July 8, 2022 Well, then it works !!! I was able to match each studio intro to his film. Thank you so much everyone luke and happy2play 1
rbjtech 5284 Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 Have a look at Vantage Point in the Plugins - it's the Cinema Intro feature on steroids and can probably do exactly what you want and more ... @Cheesegeezer 2
