Completed Remember last collection added to

[kurtgschumacher 36]

When I add a movie to a Playlist, Emby remembers the last Playlist I added something to. But when I add something to a Collection it always defaults to 'New' and I have to pull down the drop list and scroll to the collection I want. If I'm adding a lot of movies to one collection at once, that's a lot of extra clicking.

 

Please change adding to Collection to remember the last used Collection, the way add to Playlist works.

Yes we can add this. Thanks for the feedback.

Has this been done? Seems to be the current behaviour.

If I'm adding a lot of movies to one collection at once, that's a lot of extra clicking.

Use the web client and multi-select items. Click and hold on a movie, you will then get boxes that you can select on multiple movies. Them at the top-right is a menu where you can add to collection. This will then add all those selected items to the collection at once.

 

You can use a mobile client to do it as well.

Yes it has.

Diedrich, I'm familiar with the multi-select feature, and it's great if you can get all the movies you want to add on one page. But that's not always possible. And I recently found a problem with multi-select that I've been meaning to report. I'll do that now.
