New Resolution Filters

[Luke 42077]

Up until now you've been using 

IsHD=true/false

Now we have

Is4K=true/false

And going forward we will also have lower level fitlers

MinWidth=1200
MaxWidth=1200
MinHeight=1200
MaxHeight=1200

In an effort to standardize, I would suggest taking advantage of the IsHD & Is4K dedicated filters.

 

Please note, these new filters depend on new data in the next server beta, and this will require refreshing existing videos. Thanks.

Is "Is4k" etc in .16 beta server? As "next server release" is a bit vague

 

I can see two new fields added to the TypedBaseItems table of Width and Height - these get filled in with values after a movie refresh of Metadata

 

But nothing for Is4k

The API would derive that information from the width and height.  You wouldn't want to save it in the DB (creating a possible inconsistency).

well you do for a lot of other similar things like IsHD

 

So are you saying its calculated on the fly then?

Well, yeah, sometimes those types of DB design rules have to be broken for performance reasons .

 

As an answer to your question, this is all a very new work in progress but the filtering should be working (via the API) with the most recent beta release.

The IsHD column is no longer used and if you install the beta fresh you won't have it anymore.
