Hi, @VicMoore !

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

Thanks!

No as Emby will read embedded track metadata and does not write it.  Yes it writes a nfo file but currently does not read it.  All music should be edited outside of Emby with programs like mp3tag and picard or your favorite tagger.

Thanks.

So... If I have read-only library source, I have no way to change it metadata? I understood correctly that Emby cant store metadata in database?

I fixed:

1) a simple filter problem, 

2) a typo in the IPTV stream stop URL.,

3) keep buttons from scrolling, and

4) gives you the option to not have background images

Hi @VicMoore, I can't seem to get the bulk edit for tags working with the latest version. I did a bunch of movies and tvshows a few versions back but no luck with 2.0b.

Thanks JungleJim for letting me know.  I probably broke something while fixing something else.  I will fix it this morning.

I found this tool when I searched for emby delete tags. Although there is no way to delete all tags directly in batches, fortunately you provided the source code, so I can complete my needs by modifying it. Although I Editing was used instead of batch editing.

Thank you very much for the tool

Hello JungleJim...

I fix the bug you reported.  The code is attached below.  The problem was the old fix one bug and create another.  I made a change to the post code earlier in the week and that change created the problem with bulk saves that you experienced.

Please test the code and let me know if everything is now working as you expected.

Hello Sliceart...

If you need help adding to the code please let me know.   By the way, you can bulk remove all tags or just one tag.

@VicMoore Cheers mate that fixed it. Everything is working as expected. Nice work.

Hi @VicMoore, I've got a question. How do you go about selecting multiple tvshows so you can bulk add tags to them?

eg: Select all star trek shows and bulk add the tag "Star Trek"

It's easy with movies but I just can't figure how to do it with tvshows.

Previously I've shift selected all shows, then deselected the ones I don't need but that can get a bit tedious.

I'm probably missing something obvious.

Cheers.

@Junglejim Have you tried filtering the library with a search string?

Only other way I can think of is ctrl click item then select add item, individually adding them one at a time to create your list.

Thanks mate that could work, I didn't think of that. Then I could shift select from there and bulk edit away.

Will give it a go.

Edit: Yep that's the go.. cheers mate!

This also could be useful but I don't see the "add item". When I ctrl click a tvshow I get to here. Which seems to be a meta editor for that show?

It's a while since I used this tool.

I remember there being a way of the tool remembering the login details to your server.

Can someone remind me please.

Trying to BULK update a bunch of movies with TAGS and GENRES, but it doesn't appear to work.

Is this a known issue?

Do you have the latest version?  I believe a bug fix went into that version.

Also, did you change the little drop down?  By default it says "Do not save", which could be your problem.

Yes, I changed it to Add to existing TAGS/GENRES. 

I'm running the latest version in post #1.

That is version 2.0b with the bug

The latest is  tool_2.0c.zip, posted on the page before this one (page 39/40 for me).

Sorry I was looking at version 33, doesn't look like 2.0c has add item anymore.

Yea no probs, I put my glasses on and had a good look.

It would be nice if @VicMoore could bring the "Add Item" button back.

[VicMoore 754]

JungleJim, I will look into adding that button back. Tell me what you want it to do.
