Multiple Versions Setting - How to Enable?

[Hoosiers317 16]

So I am in the process of migrating back to Emby from Plex. The only problem I seem to having at the moment is this: I have many movies where I have both a 4K and 1080p version. In Plex, these are merged together and can choose which version to playback on a device. In my Emby movie library, each of these movies are separate or duplicated. I searched and found a thread that seemed to suggest that there is a setting for multiple version, but I can't figure out how to enable it.

 

My "Movies" library has three folders attached: UHD, Movies (1080p) and Concerts. Each folder has subfolders for each movie. 

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thank you!

Hi, the recommended way is to name your files for multiple versions:

If you don't want to do that, you can also use the multi-select tool to group versions together.

Ahh...so they need to be under the same main folder?

Well if using the naming route, yes.
