1.0.18 is available and includes the following updates:

  • Fix next episode auto-play crashing the player
  • Use native tizen fast-forward and rewind functions
  • Update to latest Emby Theater interface

 


Installation

 

Users in the USA with a Samsung Tizen Smart TV can install now from the Samsung App Store.

 

A Modern App for Modern Times

 

The interface for this app has been built with HTML, but this is nothing like the web apps you're accustomed to. This has been built purely with modern features that bring a level of performance that wasn't even possible a year ago at this time. For the nerds out there, that means WebAnimations, WebComponents, Service Workers, Polymer, and on and on.

Details Gone Vertical

 

A common complaint over the detail screen of the current Emby Theater is that it's pretty but slow to navigate. We went back to the drawing board and decided to take a little inspiration from Android TV. It is now much, much faster to browse through detail screens.

I just got a Samsung series 6 smart TV (first smart TV ever owned) and I love it, seeing that I could run Emby on it along with various other thing almost rendered my HTPC null and void until I realized on fatal issue with the TV: Samsung made the idiotic decision to put a 10/100 ethernet jack in the TV instead of 1 Gbps because "all streaming services don't take up any more than 10 MB/sec", I guess they forgot about the millions of people that have local collections setup. I realized this when I was trying to stream 4K content (ya know, what the TV is specifically engineered for) and it kept buffering, I looked at the output of my server and saw that it was transmitting at around 13-15 MB/sec and the TV couldn't keep up! It's sad that they made such an oversight because if it wasn't for this limitation, I would no longer use Kodi on my HTPC and reserve it specifically for games. :-(

 

I still use it though when I don't feel like turning on my PC, I'm not streaming local 4K content or my roommate is using the TV.
