3d tagged movie not showed as 3D

[Carlo 4560]

Give me a couple of hours and I'm going to try and reproduce this for you specifically using Avatar with those 3 versions.

[skidmarks 199]

I set all this up, mind you a year ago, following the wiki.  I did have to go into each 3D movie (edit metadata) and make sure 3D Format section was set.  The file title was not triggering this to be set automatically.

The other thing is to just add one set of backdrops.

Other than that, i can remove some files and see if i can duplicate this issue...

That is what I seem to remember as well.  Either add the 3D first (only movie) so you can edit it easily or add them all, ungroup, set metadata for 3D version, then regroup.

So, I just added a new movie, wasn't in my library before. Only 3D, and still not detected as 3D

Have you compared your file naming to our supported 3d naming conventions?

[nodiaque 62]

Yes, like I've said many time, I even tried all of them regardless of how the movie was formatted.  I even pasted the wiki itself to see that my current naming scheme is exactly what's on the wiki. I also tried the legacy tagging.

Yes the there is some controversy of Multi-Versioning naming and 3D naming.  This example is Multi-version naming scheme not 3D.

Multi-version naming may/will require extra steps.

 

[nodiaque 62]

All my other movie that are multi-version have the "name - 3d.mvc.mkv" tag, which is exactly what the 3d wiki for single and multi-version give as example:

[Happy2Play 9780]

 

• moviename (year)-3D.sbs-720p.mkv
• moviename (year)-3D.mvc.mkv

does not equal

 

• moviename (year) - 3D.sbs-720p.mkv
• moviename (year) - 3D.mvc.mkv

A space on each side is the difference making it something else.

O_O so the example that says 3D can be combine with multi-version is wrong because it break the detection?

Sort of as you can see 3D in the drop down list, but Emby has not truly identified it as 3D for filtering purposed.

[nodiaque 62]

Oh... but it does filter out 4k and uhd this way. Should do all...

Well that info is from media info not an additional tab saying it is 3D.  If there were a media info tag then it would be different.

[nodiaque 62]

Oh, I though it was from the file naming convention.

[nodiaque 62]

For information, 3D detected on my latest with this form:

 

The Secret Life of Pets (2016) - 3D-HSBS

There is space between between the first -. Using a space between 3D and HSBS didn't work.

Tried in a multi-version folder, didn't work

[Luke 42077]

Did you make sure you match our examples?

No you can have almost anything, so "Movie - anything" is just a label.  But filtering goes off of physical media info.

For 3D identification to work you can't have spaces have spaces around the hyphen as that is mulit-versioning " - ".

The Secret Life of Pets (2016)-3D-HSBS

The Secret Life of Pets (2016).3D-HSBS

 

[nodiaque 62]

It is exactly like the example for multi-version folder with 3d

As for the single file, with only 3D, it worked using a mix of the multi-version and 3d only,

The Secret Life of Pets (2016) - 3D-HSBS.mkv this worked

The Secret Life of Pets (2016) - 3D.HSBS.mkv this didn't

 

I tried in the multi-version to do it without space

The Secret Life of Pets (2016)-3D-HSBS.mkv

didn't worked. I cannot get it to work in multi-version folder, and since everything with 3D always have a 1080p or 4k version of it also, I don't really care about single version. But in my original testing, I copied each example from the wiki 1 by 1, regardless of the true format, and in multi-version folder, the only thing it did is populate the drop down, never the filter like single version do.

[Happy2Play 9780]

But just tested

C:\Users\Media\Desktop\Videos\Unset\The Secret Life of Pets 2\The Secret Life of Pets 2 - 3D HSBS.disc

C:\Users\Media\Desktop\Videos\Unset\The Secret Life of Pets 2\The Secret Life of Pets 2 - 3D-HSBS.disc

And both were shown as 3D

maybe because it's .disc? I'll try renaming

edit: something I do see though is that in multi-version, if I do edit metadata, the filename on top is the first file that was scanned, not the one actually selected.

This can not be used in multi-version as it will make this item its own version not grouped do to naming scheme requirements ie  space hyphen space.

extension is irrelevant.

[nodiaque 62]

tried anyway, and no go, still not seeing avatar as 3D. I think it's because it's not the first file in the folder. Did you try that? Put a non 3D file in it, then add a 3D file in it.

[nodiaque 62]

By the way, if you guys are using media info to populate UHD, SD and HD, you can do the same with 3d movies

[Happy2Play 9780]

Well this is two different issues if you want to to talk about about media info file naming.  Emby does uses ffmpeg/ffprobe to read embed tag/headers not MediaInfo.

So do you want to talk about Emby naming scheme or Media info?  One provides a display label in the UI the other is used for filtering components.  So they will never be the same.
