Is there any remote help on this so that you guys check my settings?

Maybe you could describe what isn't working?

There isn't much to check. This plugin downloads theme media by running of a scheduled task. That's pretty much it. The FAQ should give you guidance if you're having issues

When I see this not working for people it's almost always people using a non compliant folder layout.

So every movie should be in its own folder? I have all my movies together in a "movie" folder, please help, thanks

I'd  suggest checking out a util like FileBot of Bulk Rename Utility. FileBot is probably easier to start using quicker.  Either will make quick work of renaming media files correctly, creating the proper folder structures and placing the media in the folders.

https://www.filebot.net/

Any of the themed plugins will work fine after doing this.

I switched from Windows to Unraid, but I can’t find the plugins anymore. Are they available on Unraid?

I’m sorry, I should’ve specified. I can find plugins in the settings menu, but I can’t find the movie theme videos plugin 

[Carlo 4560]

Have you installed it from the Plugin Catalog?

It’s not listed in the plug-in catalog. I went through every section and couldn’t find it. I purchased the bundle with Movie and TV Theme songs and videos and had been using it on my PC for over a year, don’t know why it’s not listed using Unraid.

Update - I figured out what the issue was. I installed binhex’s repo, I didn’t realize there was an official one. I tried installing that and everything is there. Binhex’s repo is missing a lot of plugins. Thanks again to everyone who assisted. 

[Carlo 4560]

Glad you got it figured out.

Thank you!

First of all, thank you for this amazing plugin.

Unfortunately, the scheduled task always stucks at about 55 % and doesn't continue anymore. Neither restarting emby nor the entire server (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) helped. However, it seems a lot of movies-themes got downloaded. Is there a possibility (e.g. logs) to find out at which certain point it has problems and why?

And how do we get mismatched movie theme songs to be fixed? Lion King (live action) has been wrong since I installed it a year ago.  

[Carlo 4560]

Download any mismatched songs yourself and replace them manually is the best approach I've found.

I paid for the plug-in. Why is there no support on a paid plug-in?

[Carlo 4560]

There is support for the plugin right here in this thread.

I've mentioned the issue with the Lion King movie theme at least 3 times, not just in this thread, but in other threads. Where's the dev to fix it?

[Carlo 4560]

He doesn't run the sites where the themes come from.  This is very much like meta-data sites where it's user driven data.

If you get a bad match/song, replace it then use the upload functionality to help other plugin users. I've got 3 movies I'm fixing today myself.

The plugin is working as expected so theren't not really anything to fix.

[MBSki 1114]

Where are the movies coming from? If the source is broken, let's work to fix the source.
