Hi all,

 

I have a couple of downloaded podcast I wish to add to Emby, but I can't find a way to display them the way I want (displayed like Tvshows).

So I made some screens in Photoshop of what I would like (if possible) and how I should create my folder structure.

 

Podcasts Overview:

Tracks inside a podcast:

 

emby_podcast_2.jpg
 
 

My folder structure is now:

Podcasts

--Podcast Title

----Podcast Title - s01e01 - Title.ext

----Podcast Title - s01e01 - Title-thumb.jpg (doesn't get recognized) // (embedded images get recognized)

----Podcast Title - s01e01 - Title.nfo (doesn't get recognized)

----folder.jpg

----album.nfo (doesn't get displayed)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<album>
   <review>Info about the podcast.</review>
</album> 

Any ideas?

Jelle

 

PS: love that Emby for music is getting better! Good job guys!

Put your last level of items into a "Season 1" folder.

That didn't work for me:

emby_podcast_4.jpg
 
emby_podcast_5.jpg
 
emby_podcast_6.jpg
 
I also tried to use the same file structure as a TV Show (tvshow.nfo / title.nfo /  title-thumb.jpg) but that doesn't work either.
 
 
What should be in the *.nfo files to get it displayed properly? And how should the filename of the thumbs be named?

Ok so none of the nfo or image files that you've just mentioned are going to be supported. those are specific to tv and music libraries.

Thanks for the reply!

Are there any nfo and image files currently supported for Audio Books?

Posted

Yes, using the same name as the media file.

Actually sorry that's for image only, nfo is not supported at this time. It relies on embedded metadata.

Sorry, I assumed since you were trying to setup your podcasts to behave just like a TV series that you had used the TV or mixed content type.

Image-files don't get displayed. I have tried title.jpg / tile-thumb.jpg / changing the settings... Only embedded artwork works.

In what part of the metadata can I add the plot of an episode?

Embedded metadata is the same as you would for an audio file, so you can tag the same way.
