Duplicate entry in "Continue Watching"

[PaFe93 0]

Hi

i've got the same video in 2 formats, mp4 and mkv

when i start watching a video in mp4 format and stop it before the end

in "Continue Watching" it's displaying the movie in both mp4 and mkv file format, so 2 entries

Is it possible to only display the video with the format used as start only and bypass the other one ?

Thanks

Formats have nothing to do with it - you need to multi-version those items, in either of three ways:

1) Put all different files in same folder and follow naming convention for multi-version movies

2) Multi-select and select "Group Versions" in three-dot menu 

3) Use community-made Auto-Grouping plugin

Thanks for your reply

I'm going to check, but for now

1) the files are in 2 separates folders => not working

2) i've got to find where i can do this (cannot find "Group Versions" for now)

3) gonna try

So

1) the files are in 2 separates folders => not working

2) "Group Versions" is working and add the possibility to choose "Version" => not satisfying cause not native

3) don't want to add a plugin to resolve the problem... (i've got too many files to handle)

 

Can't Emby only display in "Continue Watching", for each profile, the file type used at start ?

Like :

- profile User1

    - launch file movie.mp4

    - stop file movie.mp4

    - display in "Continue Watching" file movie.mp4 only (and not movie.mp4 AND movie.mkv)

- profile User2

    - launch file movie.mkv

    - stop file movie.mkv

    - display in "Continue Watching" file movie.mkv only (and not movie.mp4 AND movie.mkv)

 

Is that so complicated to filter "Continue Watching" on file "name.type" used at start ? (i'm just asking)

Thanks

 

P.S. : as using Emby beta as Emby Premiere user, is there's a way to implement this fonctionnality ?

Hi, if you name your files using our multi-version naming guidelines, then the versions will be joined together:

You can also manually group items if needed.
