Emby Server 3.0.5641 Beta Released


Luke

8036 views

A new beta has gone out. This is primarily a maintenance release. Here are the changes.

 

Restructured Live TV Database

 

The live TV database has been significantly improved, making it faster for our apps to retrieve guide information. In addition, the server is longer dependent on startup execution of the Guide refresh scheduled task, which will allow you to get into Live TV immediately after startup.

 

Faster Live TV Start Time

 

Up until now we have been probing live TV streams for media information. On some servers this has been taking a long time, so we've removed it. Expect live tv to start faster now.

 

Emby Connect Fixes

 

There have been some problems reported with linking users to Emby Connect and we're happy to say they've been resolved.

 

 

DLNA Playback Fixes

 

Thanks to nullpointer, some fixes have been added that resolves playback issues with Samsung TV's, Sony, Panasonic, and others.

 

Try the new Voice Input

Supported by Google Chrome. This is really a new thing and is going to take time to mature, but it has such a high fun factor that we decided to give you a taste of it. If voice control is something that interests you, then make sure to join the community and tell us what commands you'd like to see added.

Other Issues Resolved

  • Segmented playback causing some occasional audible glitching
  • Tvdb Series provider printing out false logging statements suggesting no metadata matches were found
  • Web interface sometimes requiring double login

Can't wait to see if DLNA is fixed on my Samsung TV... Can't get the SmartHub app to install, so hopefully this works. Well done!

Not sure if anything has changed with music/mbz recently, but Emby seems to be matching my music albums with mbz more frequently for some reason.  I've recently started using "Album Name (Year)" folder format and it seemed that it stopped finding my cds and I suspect the (Year) was maybe the cause.  I just added 10 albums and all were found

It is a shame that the onscreen display is removed from when viewing the video. It should at least show while the video is paused or an option provided to turn it on or off.

It's not removed. The screen size threshold for using it has been increased. you can probably adjust via css

What is the CSS because it doesn't display on my 1080p monitors.

Thanks for the increase in performance for live tv. I went from 30 seconds to 13 seconds(browser+ theater). I really hope for more improvements in this so it compares with 8mc, which takes 2-3 seconds with my dvblink setup

Movies work great using DLNA on my Samsung TV, however music starts for about 2 seconds then shut down and returns to TV Mode.
