The latest one. Can you share a picture of how that looks for you, I'm very interested to see that. I mean, I can see a clear difference between my 1080p and 4k screens. On the 1080p is crisp.

Hi, don't know if there's a way to fix/handle this..... Situation: I got some DolbyVision .mp4 files Format : HEVC Format/Info : High Efficiency Video Coding Format-Profil : Main 10@L5@High HDR-Format : Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, Profile 5, dvhe.05.06, BL+RPU, no metadata compression Codec-ID : dvh1 Dauer : 59 min 52s Bitrate : 24,5 Mb/s Breite : 3 840 Pixel Höhe : 1 746 Pixel Watching them with EmbyApp 2.2.53 (on OSX Sonoma 14.8.7) works with no issues, also on OSX on emby/safari-browser. I also have correct playback on my Panasonic (TV-55Z95AEG with Fire-TV operating system). But: With my other fire-tv hardware and playback on my "only" full-hd tv or beamer, the picture stays "purple" and at the playback-beginning I get the info: "Video not compatible with this Display. DolbyVision not supported on your system." Is there somewhere a setting I can fix this? (Kind of "downscale") I tried turning off HDR dynamics under fire-tv-hardware settings (display), no difference. Using QNAP version 4.9.5.0 / Fire-TV 2.1.29a. Thanks for thoughts.... (please let me know if you additionally need playback log)

Will be available on the next update

No worries, just go through the above links, download and install server; if you hit a wall at any point during the process, just post again here.

WTF dude, are you ok?, do you really need to respond like this? I feel the Emby team could have handled this better. All that was needed was once the Emby team had a handle on the issue they should have released a notice. Nothing grand but a short announcement with the impact and recommendations for users.

1.5-2M items is a pretty typical size for the big IPTV services FYI. But that includes Live TV streams too. So yes, a pre-filter would be a huge help.

Hey up, for some basics check out here: https://emby.media/about.html Quick Start Sure is: https://emby.media/download.html Edit: Btw, you're allowed to say PLEX, we don't bite. Edit2: Though I do keep a tool at hand (or in hand, depends how one looks at it). Swoosh!!!

I see it on the Server, but on my NVIDIA Shield there's no option, so if I plug in headphones and my media file only has 5.1 available, it comes out very low and I need to turn my Amp up considerably to get proper volume. I checked all the options. It's simply not downmixing and there's no way to force it. I tried both Apps.

Hello Robert526, ** This is an auto reply ** Please wait for someone from staff support or our members to reply to you. It's recommended to provide more info, as it explain in this thread: Thank you. Emby Team

I had windows home media server until they stopped support, so I was forced to use server 2016 and at the time pl""x was the big player so I got a lifetime pass. Now over 10 years they became so complicated that sharing even files to my self is 4 weeks of forum support and seems they want to get into everything but not stick to their core values. Im a simple man that wants to share pics, movies, docs across home network and through apps. I need a simple setup that just works. Id post this in a server forum but didnt see that option. Whit apps I mean the native app I can install in my car and stream my movies or share them with wife. Nothing crazy and something easy to setup on network without getting comcast involved. Im tired of what I have but would this be a good fit for me? if so and how. I dont see a windows server download for this, is this supported?

Please provide the server log from when you get that error. Log Files

Hi. I suspect something is blocking your browser or other client from validating with our servers.

What version of the app are you running? This is a very old discussion. I run Emby on a 110" screen and don't notice any real issues. Note that the Android UI is 1080p regardless of the panel resolution. So it is being upscaled regardless.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hello Emby Support, First time using Emby and bought the lifetime to use with my Alexa and music collection. Any help would be appreciated. Alexa stop playing after the first song ends on multi echo devices (3rd generation). Plays fine on a single echo dot and continue to next song. You can ask it to paly next song and it's fine but after the song ends, it stop playing.

Poster/cover art integrated on the left in the hero section (like Android TV), not just a background image without a cover • Rounded/compact button icons instead of square, equally-sized tiles • Scroll-reveal behavior: initial screen shows only the hero section (poster, title, buttons, short synopsis) — on swipe/scroll down, the hero section slides up to reveal seasons, episodes, cast, etc. (similar to Netflix/Disney+) • No details (cast, seasons) visible on the first screen — only revealed after the scroll interaction

I don't think that's related to the latest version, but yes. you can go back to any version. You need to sideload the version -> install addon via zip, there is a folder with all versions.

I kinda feel like you are trolling me? And in fact, it is not marked as watched on Emby, but in Kodi and on Trakt it is. The Bear... same thing. The list goes on, for EVERY single TV show I have. Not just one here or there, but EVERY SINGLE ONE. The log says the same thing seen above for ALL of them. But the point I would think the log made clear, is that it says it cannot match ANY show. The log says this. But because you asked, I checked Kodi... watched history is all good. Look at my account on Trakt, watch history is all good. Run the Task scan on Emby again, with the plugin Trakt 3.8.3.0, and it does not work for TV but does work for Movies. This agrees with the log, that I posted. Are you telling me when you run this version of the plugin, it works for you? I would think the result the same. My folders aren't crazy names. The example I posted doenst look strange. "T:\TV\American.Ninja.Warrior.(2009).[tvdb-212411]\Season.05\American.Ninja.Warrior.-.S05E12.-.Baltimore.Finals.(2).SDTV.mp4"

Actually, both of them are equally involved in this.

/Users/myuser/.config/emby-server/plugins is the right one. I also encounter the same issue like you, but I found out it requires a specific beta version of Emby Then I found this place to download the right version. https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases But still, this encoder didn't work in my case. My Emby still says No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details. Maybe there's something wrong in my config. But I can't find out.

Remote access has more to do with your router than dsm, right?

Hi, we work very hard on Emby and we thank you for your support.

OK, thank you very much!

Hi, looks much nicer how? Can you please be more specific?
