Collections not showing when all libraries access unchecked

Hi there,

 

First time I post here, hope I haven't done any mistake...

 

Noticed a strange behaviour recently : if you don't use the "access all libraries" parameter under user access config, the Collection scraped will still show in emby, but you won't be able to add a film into a collection anymore (collection listing will be empty in the scrolldown list) and server's client will lose collections display.

 

A bit of context now ;) :

I had been using Emby for years now, with 1 server for 2 local LAN Openelec players behind TVs. I have configured 2 user profiles :

  • 1 which accesses all database (mine)
  • 1 with limited access to only a few folders ('cause movie tastes is something complex ;) ).

Trying to see a "saga" (kodi term) with the "limited profile", I noticed I coudn't access anymore to these. Days later, I added a new media folder in emby which I wanted to dedicate to a new user specifically, and hide from other profiles. So I stopped letting "all libraries" been shown for the 1 user and selected the needed folders only (and so collections selected too) and then I couldn't edit existing collection anymore, neither having them shown in the Kodi's.

 

I did some quick config testing and saw that until "access to all libraries" isn't checked and you try to select only some folders, you won't access previously created collections. I say previously, cause it also seems that you can create new collection and only these lastly created will be shown to users.

 

Hope to find a way to fix this easily :)

 

Thank you all for the great job done yet, it changed my life ;) !!!
