A tool for tagging Emby content

[VicMoore 754]

Good morning Flippz...

The code is attached below. Give it a good testing.

On channels I put the channel logo as background art.

Also I added to the  Tag pulldown list the option to delete a specific tag from a channel.

Kanipec and Flippz,  let me know if you have anymore great ideas.

The new code is below.

Vic

[VicMoore 754]

Thanks Flippz...

I added today the ability to change channel logo images.   Just replace the old channels.js file with the one below.

channels.js

The latest code is attached below. I finished the channel tagging code.  I will improve it further in a few days.

Vic

tool_1.4.zip

[VicMoore 754]

OK, I zipped everything up again.  The file is below.

[VicMoore 754]

Hello Flippz...

Using the tool.js from 1.3 should not have been a problem.

if when you select one or more channels and click Edit you should see the Channel Editor screen.  If you don't the copy the console text and send it to me.

Kanipek has been giving me suggestion on how to improve channel tagging. I learned a great deal from him, including that each channel has three logo images.  The code below is the current implementation of the channel tagging code.

The attached zip file is the latest code. Everything is working except playing IPTV from the Program Guide.  Virtual TV content plays OK.   Everyone, please let me know if anything isn't working as expected or if you have suggested improvements.

I love the fact that you give credit (to Kanipek) ...  I think that this is so important when people give things away for free, and if only their expertise!

Thanks, and Cheers,

Thanks Roodee...

I appreciate your kind words.  So many people have contributed ideas and recommendations that have improved this tool.

Hello guys. Is there a way to use this tool to manage "Favorites"? I have hundreds of movies that I labeled as favorites, but have created a collection to use as a Watchlist instead. My problem is that I do not see a simple way to remove all the favorite tags from movies and tv shows.

Is there a file that I can edit or any suggestions?

Than you.

That depends what you want to do with the favorites.  Add and / or remove to them or from them?

You can filter by them, and as far as I understand, you filter the favorites of the user that you start the tool with. If you use your "admin", you will see the admins favorites, and not see the favorites of a user. But you can start the tool as another user (other than the admin).

If you click on a movie-poster, you have the option to set it as favorite or remove it (do not forget to save afterwards):

You can also filter based on these "favorites" and tag them or do anything the tool allows (based on this users privileges in emby itself!):

Hope that helps!

Cheerios,
Roodee

Hello JsinFate...

In addition to Roodee's great comments, I can add functionality if you can explain what you want.

Hi everyone.

I used my Favorites as a "catchall" for all the movies I wanted to watch. I made a new Collection and labeled it my Watchlist. I want to take all 300+ movies I have marked as favorites and remove the Favorite label. "UnFavorate" them essentially.

I am trying to only use my Favorites for actors, special movies etc. but also have a place that contains all of the movies I want to watch immediately.

[VicMoore 754]

Hello JsinFate...

As RooDee mentioned earlier, you can list all of your movies, then filter on isFavorite, now select all of the results and bulk edit them to reset the favorite tag. Give it a try.

Vic

[JsinFate 19]

I am at work now, but I will certainly try this as soon as I get home.

Thank you guys!

[JsinFate 19]

I was finally able to play around with it just now and after finally finding the correct option (going blind) I was able to remove all the movies from my favorites. Thank you guys for all the help. I really appreciate it.

Hello JsinFate...

We are all glad to help.

Hello Kanipec...

Attached below is new code that includes IPTV support. Set up Emby for Live TV. In the tool, click on LiveTV to bring up the EPG. Now in the EPG you can play IPTV content.  If you play Pluto programs locally it will not hang on commercials.  I was able to fix the problem in hls.  If you cast to your TV, the problem remains because your TV uses the web client logic. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

Vic

p.s.  Please check this code to make sure that I didn't break anything when I added the IPTV code.

I have been watching Pluto TV  all night without one hang from commercials.

Has anyone been able to stream live TV or tag channels?

Hello...

I made the EPG faster on reloads, improved the editor, and increased some of the timeouts in HLS.  The Live TV is working well, but I have noticed some problems with starting ffmped in EMBY.  The new code is attached below.

I would be interested if the tool is working OK. I have limited resources for testing the code. So, please let me know about problems.

I removed the code to make a change to the sign on code.

[VicMoore 754]

OK, there was no sign-on problem. It was my network misbehaving.

In the code below I have fixed / added:

1) the scrolling of the EPG, it now keeps the top page position when scrolled left by the timer and when you return from playing a video

2) improved the 'live TV' playing algorithm. Pluto.tv plays without stalling

3) added new filters for 'min community' rating and 'min critic rating'

4) fixed bulk edit so it refreshes the page when you edit only the 'favorite' and 'played' fields.

Please let me know if you find any bugs.

I uploaded the wrong code

[VicMoore 754]

All of the code after tool_1.6 has been screwed up.   I am surprised that nobody told me.

Vic

Edited November 30, 2022 by VicMoore

[VicMoore 754]

OK, the code is fixed.  After version 1.6, I forgot to remove some test code. This mistake would prevent anyone from logging onto their Emby server with the tool.  No one complained, so I guess that the tool is not being used.

The correct code is attached below.

Hi Vic - 

I am sure that is NOT the case! I am a fairly regular user of the tool - Including up to 1.9 where I encountered issues which I PM'd you about. I saw no issue with logging on at all.

Hi, @VicMoore !

Can I use this tool for bulk editing a music metadata, like albums, artists?

Thanks!
