Hi, I need a little help with setting up Emby for JAV collections: Is there a way to automatically create a collection by performers (actresses) using the "People" tag/field in the NFO files in Emby?

Yes! that's exactly what I am looking to create, not one by one manually, but with a script that can pull the actress names from each NFO file to create a collection of "movies by actresses/performers" like the one you have shown. Is such script available?
I would also like to know how to get the actress poster images like what you have shown, I only have small size images of actresses's face (cast & crew thumbs) and movie posters, but don't have posters like what you have shown.
would you mind sharing the script? if you feel that is an inappropriate question/request, I totally understand and I apologize for that.
I guess not. Have you ever share anything that is actually helpful to others in this forum? or you just really enjoy showing off your coding "talents"?
I know how to program in Python, I was asking for guidance in terms of what files Emby is reading from to build collections (I now know Emby reads from collections.xml files), where to write the people metadata extracted from NFO files to what XML files, what other fields to extract from NFO files and what to what fields in the XML files, etc., if you are not willing to share, fine, but replying to my post then not providing any tangible help is ruder than what I have honestly and objectively pointed out the fact of your behaviors. But I won't say anything more about any of that, I am just trying to write a script to accomplish a specific goal.
