I think it's a general windows function as it seems to work with any app provided they haven't overridden f11.

Hi, not currently, but this is something we plan to add in future updates. Thanks.

Yes, badges based on either which library an item is in, or which folder an item is in within a library. So everything in my Recordings library gets a Recording badge, everything in my Unowned library gets an Unowned badge, everything in the Stubs subfolder of my Movies library gets a Stub badge, etc.

Hi, having some trouble with playback since last update. Is it possible for me to go back to 21 to figure out if has smth to do with current version?

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a few testers with Emby on an Android TV device for a 14-day closed beta. TO JOIN: send me a private message with the EMAIL of the Google account you use on your TV + your Android TV model. With that email I'll add you to the beta and send back the link to install. (It's a closed test — without your Google email I can't grant access.) What it is: - GTD Launcher — a customizable Android TV home screen (native channels, themes, glass UI, per-app icons, remote remapping). - GTD Plugin for Emby — the companion that connects it to your server: dynamic wallpapers generated from your Emby library, an ambient 4K HDR screensaver with your own backdrops, native Android TV channels (Continue Watching, Latest, Live TV with EPG), TMDB card art, and Oppo UDP-203/205 disc-player control. - GTD Setup — a free phone app to pair by QR and type your Emby login/keys from your phone instead of the remote. Ad-free. No telemetry. No account — it only talks to your own Emby server. What you get: - Premium unlocked free, forever, on your account as a thank-you (normally €7). - A direct line to me for bugs and feature requests. What I need from you: - An Android TV device (Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, Fire TV with Play Services, or an Android TV set). - A reachable Emby server. - To actually use it for ~2 weeks (set the launcher as your home and open it daily) — Google checks that testers genuinely use the app. Why: Google requires new developers to run a 14-day closed test with active testers before going to production, and this community already runs Emby, which is exactly who it's for. More info: github.com/GokuTD/gtd-launcher · github.com/GokuTD/gtd-plugin · privacy: gokutd.github.io/gtd-policy/ In short: PM me your Google email and I'll add you to the beta. Thanks!

Hello, I think there has been a misunderstanding regarding my topic. The issue is not the PIN generation. The PIN is generated correctly. However, after I validate it, the authentication token is never retrieved, and Emby never appears in the "Connected Apps" section on Trakt. This is where the authentication process seems to fail. To be completely honest and transparent, Emby Server on Android works very well. However, the Emby Android TV app (used without Kodi) has been a very poor experience for me. I've encountered numerous playback issues, including video codec problems, latency, and overall performance. Perhaps it works better on an NVIDIA Shield, but on my setup it is simply not a satisfactory experience. After many tests, the only stable and reliable solution I found is: - Emby Server - Kodi - EmbyCon - Trakt for Kodi With this setup, Kodi is the actual media player, and the Trakt for Kodi addon successfully syncs all watched movies and TV shows with my Trakt account. Please don't take this as negative criticism. My goal is simply to provide feedback that may help identify the issue. From my point of view, there is still work to be done on the Emby Trakt plugin, because in my case the process stops after the PIN is generated: the OAuth token is never retrieved, and nothing is registered on the Trakt side.

Hola a todos, Busco unos cuantos testers con Emby en un Android TV para una beta cerrada de 14 días. PARA APUNTARTE: mándame por mensaje privado el EMAIL de tu cuenta de Google (la que usas en la TV) + el modelo de tu Android TV. Con ese email te añado a la beta y te devuelvo el enlace para instalar. (Es cerrada: sin tu email de Google no puedo darte acceso.) Qué es: - GTD Launcher — pantalla de inicio personalizable para Android TV (canales nativos, temas, interfaz glass, iconos por app, remapeo del mando). - GTD Plugin para Emby — el complemento que lo conecta a tu servidor: fondos dinámicos desde tu biblioteca de Emby, salvapantallas 4K HDR con tus carátulas, canales nativos (Continuar viendo, Novedades, TV en directo con EPG), carátulas TMDB, y control del reproductor Oppo UDP-203/205. - GTD Setup — app gratis de móvil para emparejar por QR y escribir el login/claves de Emby desde el teléfono. Sin anuncios. Sin telemetría. Sin cuenta — solo habla con tu propio servidor Emby. Qué obtienes: - Premium desbloqueado gratis para siempre en tu cuenta, como agradecimiento (normalmente 7 €). - Línea directa conmigo para fallos y sugerencias. Qué necesitas: - Un Android TV (Shield, Chromecast con Google TV, Fire TV con servicios de Play, o tele con Android TV). - Un servidor Emby accesible. - Usarlo de verdad ~2 semanas (ponlo como pantalla de inicio y ábrelo a diario) — Google mira que los testers usen la app. Por qué: Google obliga a los devs nuevos a una prueba cerrada de 14 días con testers activos antes de producción, y esta comunidad ya usa Emby, que es justo para quien está pensada. Más info: github.com/GokuTD/gtd-launcher · github.com/GokuTD/gtd-plugin · privacidad: gokutd.github.io/gtd-policy/ Resumiendo: mándame tu email de Google por privado y te meto en la beta. ¡Gracias!

اشتركت في Emby بس شلون اقدر أشغّل البرنامج ؟

Solved: I dug through the Synology logs and discovered that the folders were created via the installation of the Synology media server. This is an install that I had forgotten about since it was uninstalled minutes later ... in favor of EMBY.

Well since my qbitstrm plugin project was rejected by the team (which was almost finished and awesome i would say) I was on a new similar project for upcoming titles it basically requires Ombi a media request app and requested items appear on the plugin and it automatically creates a strm file and a small video with the backdrop of the movie with coming soon text but it is in early dev stage and to be honest am not all in with this one almost abandoning it...... but if people are interested may be i will continue making this project here are some of the screenshots...

I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you're referring to an option to show badges only for specific libraries, that's certainly possible. However, I don't think that's what you're asking for. Could you elaborate a bit more or give an example of the workflow.

I don't know about the posters, but I have Emby running on a 4k tv, and honestly, it looks terrible. Everything in the UI in blurry, and big and the app interface is obviously running late on the 4k party. I mean, the previous message on this thread was 6 years ago, and nothing has changed. On my other TVs, which are 1080p everything is fine, it looks how it suppose to look on a 1080p display. I have tried setting the text and images sizes to small, but that didn't help a lot.

I have the same issue on my Xiaomi Box 3s 3rd gen. I have the same version, installed the same day, on that box and Firestick 4k Max, and on the Firestick in works great without those transition animations. You can see on my videos, one from each box. I've tried disabling animations in Developer options, but no luck. VID_20260708_193000.mp4 VID_20260708_194652.mp4

It's 3.5.36.

Thanks @sa2000! I'll post back with my results.

It wasn't obvious to me that this would work in the Windows Store app for Emby, since it's not a browser.

Yes so there is a lot to consider obviously.

F11 is standard browser feature. At least on windows.

Would you consider adding support for reading libraries, folders, etc? I'd really like a way to clearly mark my recordings. I also create stub files for any movies I buy the disc of as soon as I order the disc, so they sit on the server in that form until the disc arrives. This allows me to more easily track what I own, what I've got coming, and to do the admin work of setting up cover art etc while I'm waiting for the disc. Again, a way to make those visually distinct would be nice. I also have a library that consists entirely of movies I don't own. Either things I've watched, or things I have watchlisted on a streaming service I'm subscribed to. Those are all stubs as well.

Hello, I have a server that is asking me for a Premiere Subscription whenever i access it from outside my lan, with a domain name... i have two subdomains, same server embyA.exampledomain.stream (this one is registered inside emby) embyB.exampledomain.stream (this one is NOT registered inside emby) both domains are proxied through cloudflare (not tunnels, just dns) if i play a movie with hardware acceleration, it does work, just Live TV is asking me for a Subscription still it's asking me for an emby premiere subscription on the home page and in live tv, if i access the server through tailscale, appears normal (with premiere). what can i do so LIVE TV works outside LAN and remove the premiere requirements.?? embyserver.txt

Fair point - I didn't know that scroll feature existed until now. Also, I didn't know about F11 until I searched this forum while preparing this request. Now that I know about it, and the reason for not allowing F in the navigation conext, I'll use it. Could F11 be added to the "Keyboard and Remote" help feature? That's where I had looked for such a shortcut, and didn't find it. Thanks!

I've recently moved from Windows to Linux on my main desktop and decided to ditch Windows on my media center PC as well. I installed Emby Server via the command line using the follow command, so I think it's a Flatpak installation. I'm new to Linux so not 100% on that. curl https://pkg.emby.media/get.sh | sh Emby Server version is 4.9.5.0. Everything is working great except when I reboot the PC and the Emby server starts up on boot, it also opens up my browser and loads the Emby web interface. I'd like to make that stop doing that. I searched and found some references to a server setting that says "Launch the Emby web app in my web browser when Emby Server starts". Except I can't find this setting anywhere. I did remove the Emby Server start up from the Autostart applications and that did stop the browser launch, but also prevented the server from starting automatically. Manually starting the server then causes the browser to open. Any help would be appreciated because I'm lost on where to look next to resolve this. TIA!

Just renewed. Trying to enter url I was given and the port, but just bounced me back to enter manually page

A show is scheduled to record where episodes are being "simulcast" on two different stations.... in other words, two different stations air the same season/episode of that show at the same time. My question is if Emby tries to record from lets say channel A and the recording fails for whatever reason... will it attempt to record from channel B? See example below.
