Hi,
is there a way to filter a movie with 2 or more genres?
For example, let's say I want to filter all the movies that are classified both as 'Horror' AND 'Mistery' at the same time, is there a way to do this?

I was not able to do this:

  • If I click on 'Movies' -> 'Filter' and select 2 genres, jellyfin will show me all the movies that have at least one of the two
  • If I click on 'Genres' -> Select a genre (i.e. 'horror') -> 'Filter' and select another genre, jellyfin will show me again movies that have at least one of categories selected (wich does not make sense for me since I was clicking on a specific genre so I expect to do the filtering only on movies beloging to that specific genre)

Thanks

Currently not possible. When we get a chance to rewrite the DB it will be easier. Currently it's an OR expression db530e61f5/Emby.Server.Implementations/Data/SqliteItemRepository.cs (L4115) and we're unlikely to change it before the rewrite.

Thanks, I replaced this OR with AND on my version and I love it ! OR is a non-sense for genre, movies we want to filter, not accumulate !

I ran into a similar situation but for tags instead of genres. I ended up making a similar local modification by modifying the IL instructions and turn OR into AND using dnSpy
