chowbok 136 Posted Friday at 08:20 PM Posted Friday at 08:20 PM Not a big deal, just curious: when Emby shows a trailer for a movie, where does it get the name of the trailer from? It doesn't seem to be derived from either the trailer's filename or its embedded title.
Luke 43035 Posted Friday at 08:22 PM Posted Friday at 08:22 PM Hi, older versions might have just grabbed the trailer file name. Newer versions base it on movie name, so it depends on when it was imported into your library. 1
chowbok 136 Posted yesterday at 06:52 AM Author Posted yesterday at 06:52 AM Okay, interesting. Any way I can reset them? Some just are called "trailer".

I had this same issue. I just started naming files like this. Example: 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)-Trailer.mp4 Edited 7 hours ago by Smitty018210
visproduction 369 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago (edited) It use to be that the trailer name shown is whatever comes after a dash "-". For your Emby version it is probably the dash, that is causing the name to be shortened. That may have been fixed with the latest beta. But then, I just stopped using a dash in the trailer name, when I noticed this issue. Try removing the dash. Edited 1 hour ago by visproduction
