Multi-part movies play only the first part

Open giddie opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

When there is a multi-part movie in Jellyfin:

  • Movie (2020).part1.mkv
  • Movie (2020).part2.mkv

And the movie is synced to Kodi using the Native playback mode, only the first part is played. The second part is not even visible for playback.

Have you checked if this works in add-on mode? (I suspect not, but it'd be nice to know for sure)

I haven't checked this yet, but given that Jellyfin's own web interface only plays the first part too, I don't hold out much hope :p

Not only an issue with Native mode. Having the same issue with addon mode. Strangely it is only playing the second video when I try to play the video

Looking into it further, it seems that we don't get any information from the jellyfin server in the API responses to indicate that the item has a second part so I don't see a way for us to be able to add multi-part playback to the addon till the server api returns data we can use. It does look like it was built with this in mind since the "mediaSources" item in the response could have multiple items (could be how multiple version of the same thing work)

Jellyfin server issue: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/3212 I think it is related to https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/1745, though
