Al of a sudden my server is not displaying the blue duplicates indicator in the corner of duplicate tv shows, not sure if it is new server version related or not, but I just noticed it when I added episodes of a show I knew I already had and when I went to the show it didn’t show any duplicates, but if I clicked on the get info button it showed that it had a duplicate. Any idea how to fix?
Apparently it is new server related or new home screen manager related. I downgraded to the last version before the one released this week and the blue duplicate boxes are back in the corner of tv shows.
Unfortunately that is NOT the solution, but since it’s the one that you employed… so be it. The real solution is Plex realizing their horrific mistake and fixing it (your solution is certainly going to be quicker).
Good point. It’s more of a work around. Hopefully it is a glitch they will fix in the next release, though if they don’t list it as a fix in that release the only way to know is download and install it.
My friends also don’t know they can select the Theatrical or The Pre-Release Version of this one… no Blue 2 to indicate a Version they can pick… so they don’t (unless I tell them in an Edit and even then, will they ever read it? Probably not).
I guess I didn’t realize I used this feature as much as I do, until it was gone. It really helps when you have a massive server to find the duplicates you didn’t realize you had and trim the out to save as much space as you can,
Yeah, having the versions listed in the details under the summary and poster isn’t as obvious as the old blue indicator.
All of my duplicates are lower quality, stereo audio versions of the original, for my friends who can’t direct play HEVC/Surround. The apps seem to automatically pick the right version to play, so in my circumstance, the more obvious indicator isn’t so important.
I guess I haven’t pushed the upgrade server button for a while.
LOL - I have to switch between apps depending on what I want to do. The local app won’t let me refresh metadata or empty trash, the hosted doesn’t show the duplicate indicator as obviously as the old one. So there’s usually 2 tabs open on the browser during maintenance.
So, the Hosted App has all the magic?
I thought the new server version was to accompany it?
Could be and probably am - wrong.
Anywho I jump on those updates - and hope for the best.
I don’t have any Blue 2 Versions and not going to back up to get 'em.
But I am gonna cry about it - often.
