Unset (mixed content): Theater vs. Classic Issue


Recommended Posts

I have the latest version of Emby Server on my Windows 7 server.

I have the latest version of Emby for Windows Media Center on a HTPC.

I have the latest version of Emby Theater on a test PC.

These are all fresh installs (I removed the older/updated versions)

 

I'm trying to see if I can migrate all of my systems to Emby Theater as WMC is unavailable in Windows 10.

 

One issue I ran into is with the "Unset (mixed content) option for media folders.

1) On Emby for WMC, my "Unset" folder for Silent Movies appears as a "Movie" folder which is great.

    - The movies are reflected as expected/intended.

    - The 10 episode movie "Les Vampires" appears as a TV series, which is also great.

2) On Emby Theater, my "Unset" folder for Silent Movies looks funky.

    The Issues:

    - There's no Genre, Movies, Timeline, Latest Movies "start" page like the other folders.

    - All of the movies have title text included and are spread far apart.

    The Good:

    - The movies are reflected as expected/intended.

    - The 10 episode movie "Les Vampires" appears as a TV series, which is also great.

 

Note: This happens in (3) of my media folders (Documentary, Movie Serials & Silent Movies) due to the fact that all of these have single and series type content...

 

Is there a way to correct this?

Just in case you haven't already read it in any of the documentation: unset or mixed content libraries are more difficult to have some of the more advanced features of emby server...so may have some limitations
