Where should the Ignore folder be in Emby termes.

[yocker 1247]

This is my last try at a quick fix, if this doesn't work it then i will go through every single little byte of code to see what is wrong.
Also try and delete the configuration file in plugins/configuration.

@Neminemno where, if the plugin is set to not work with a library it will ignore that library.

Can this setting have factor.

Since my storage is on my main unRaid server ?

Could it be a Emby Cache issue ? 

My network is 2.5gb between them.

Hmm.. Never actually thought about that setting. Yes it's possible.

[Neminem 1518]

For me, this version brings little improvement for the startpage after image cache is fully built up, tried it with wiping the xml before update. But it seems the images load faster now when rebuilding cache during scrolling through the library.

 

Edit: Strange that the continue watching images are not affected and load instantly, even if they are also touched by the plugin (at least on my system).

For those with the problem try this version.
I'm still not done but for now this will at least help a lot.

Is that the same as the one you send me yesterday and the one I tested this morning ?

Slightly different.
In the first one i had temporally disabled the profile system.
On the other i had fixed unnecessary banner and thumb drawing the plugin might have done.

@yockerlooks like for some odd reason your plugin is now working. I just went into Emby to make sure a new movie and a couple of TV episodes from last night got listed and I noticed the below. I'm assuming the small banners at the top of the image posters are from your plugin.

 

 

[Neminem 1518]

@CummingCowGirlIt not from this plugin, I think those are from Cover-art.

Yes, i think i wrote you about it, I made it have built in icons precisely so people in your situation would be able to get it to work.  

No, my plugin does not show banners like that.

Okay, found something really minor in v3.51.9... 

Cleared cache, and after running the Icon Manager, it shows Custom Tags that are needed.  For example, "tag.babylon 5.png".  According to the Readme section, any spaces in Custom Tag names need to be replaced with dashes?

Because of that assumption, I do have an icon "tag.babylon-5.png".  That icon is showing up on on movie/series posters.  However, the Icon Manager lists the "tag.babylon-5.png" icon as being unused.

Seems like the plugin is using the hyphenated name Custom Tags, just not acknowledging that the icon exists and therefore list them again as "needed".

It's nothing that breaks functionality, but someone could get confused and double up trying to solve the discrepancy...

 

[Neminem 1518]

You mean 3.31.9.0 right ?

Yep, damn typos!  Err, no, 5.31.9...  Now we're both doing it.

If the fix doesn't work I will go back to the last good one and add the new features. 

I'm really sorry about it as it should just f.ing work.

Thank you all for the testing!!

Ok so you're confusing me. Yes they are yours but no they aren't? I mean either way it looks good.

Sorry I will explain tomorrow when I'm sober again. 

I'm at a metal concert right now.

But if you understand nu drunken talk my plugin does not make does "banners".

I only added built in icons so it would work for people in your situation.

[IAmHugh 63]

OK so those banners are from something else. I'll have to checkout you you mean about built in icons. Talk to you tomorrow. Enjoy your concert.

The banners look like they are from a plugin called CoverArt. EmbyIcons only does the little icons for languages, codecs, etc., no banners. Fallback icons were added into the plugin for people who can't grant permissions to use custom icon, like on Arch, so that the plugin could still render even without custom icons. From your screenshots, I don't see any icon that are being rendered by EmbyIcons.
