Because that results in hammering the metadata providers with huge numbers of requests and they have asked us not to do this. That is why it’s on demand. That and I promise you wouldn’t like the library scan time that would come with that.

Caddy is a lot simpler so you don't have to mess with most of that. Just use the example Caddy files that are posted out here.

Yes and I recommend using Caddy as it is dead-simple. Connect or not your domain is the same - whatever domain you have created/obtained. Think of Connect as nothing but a dynamic DNS service. It just maps a forum account to a local server one.

Hi, yes genres have always worked this way.

Hi, yes you can. Lots of users here use caddy. I would suggest comparing your reverse proxy config to this: The guide is written for nginx but most reverse proxies have similar options.

I probably wouldn’t suggest doing it that way. It won’t automatically transition that way either.

OK we are looking into it. Thanks.

Hi, the reason for the folder layer is to help make the folder view more accurate. Yes you might be right that we could have auto detected if it was needed, but at this point the vast majority of 4.8 to 4.9 updates have been done so we probably won’t revisit it. Apologies for the disruption.

Exactly what did you do? Did you complete the last step which was to save in the plugin page?

It will auto change when browsing the user interface , but not currently during playback. That’s an area that needs improving

It's located on the same physical drive, but in it's own separate folder.

Hi. You are talking about the management interface, not the user one, correct?

Hi. Be sure you haven't pointed your temporary paths to the same place that the actual content is (or above it and in the same scope). This is starting to sound like you've defined a custom temp/cache path that is also in the scope of your content or downloads.

Those are not "posters". What you want to achieve is already possibly by simply providing a backdrop for the episodes.

That confirms the diagnosis - thanks for testing it. Deleting the JSON forced restore to read the NFO directly, and the NFO had the right data all along. That's obviously not something you should have to do by hand every time, so the actual fix is what we talked about above: restore will merge JSON and NFO together field by field instead of stopping at the first JSON match. Once that ships, you can put your JSON backups back and it'll pick whichever source actually has a value for each field (Intro/Credits independently), rather than an old or partial JSON blocking a more complete NFO. Will post here once that's out.

Been playing around with this on multiple devices tonight iPhone (iOS) - No issue so far. Everything looks clean and direct plays just fine. Shield - Like above no issues. LG TV - Only encountered the Top banner bug, aside from that seems ok. Apple TV 4k - UI is really nice BUT barely anything direct plays. Everything is transcoding when they direct play just fine in the native emby app. @bingbong69_are there any known issues where Apple TV is not direct playing?

Thanks a lot for the sample file and the command. I was able to reproduce it with the current FFmpeg - even though it was still reacting to input - i.e. pressing q caused it to exit (tested on Windows) The new FFmpeg (8.x based) doesn't expose this I was a bit confused because stock ffmppeg doesn't have this behavior (because they have no subtitle filtering), so I wanted dto be sure. Thanks a lot for reporting!

I have had a server for a few years and I have never seen it auto-change, even after a long period of time. I just thought it was the nature of the beast when moving from wi-fi to cell data, but then I got Spotify and that changes seamlessly, and yesterday, I set up a audio book service on the same server and the iOS app for that has a setting to auto fall back to local IP when the domain is not available (I don't have an option for a "hairpin" loopback on my router)

Hi, Plex user coming in hot... So, Plex handled all the networking side of things and I am trying to get my head around doing it myself without causing security issues. Emby is running on my QNAP and I have enabled my QNAP's SSL for Emby using into from the Emby docs here. I (think I) want to use Caddy as a reverse-proxy, but can I do that and also use "Emby Connect"? My limited understanding of Caddy is that this should be in the CaddyFile emby.MyDomain.tld { reverse_proxy / emby:8096 but what is MyDomain if I'm using using Emby Connect? ...sorry if this is a dumb question, but this is all new to me. I appreciate that I will need to update my QNAP SSL to reflect the correct domain name.

The code that was DMed no longer works.

Thanks for the detailed testing and summary. So just confirming that the same problem occurs with both TV's? What models are they? How long do you have to watch something before the problems start? Do you think that it is time based? For example, watching 3x30min episodes one after the other or matching 90 minutes of a movie causes the same problem, or do you think it is about switching episodes, ie: 3x10 minutes episodes has the same issues as 3x30min episodes? The problem is that if I can't easily reproduce this, it's going to be very hard to diagnose. Can you suggest the best way for me to reproduce this, and how long do I have to be watching to experience the problem? Are you enabling any subtitles? Can you please send me a PM with a link to download those two files that you can reproduce the issue on? At least with those I can be confident that I should see the issue. Thanks

I'd really like to be able to display the correct BBFC rating symbol for content, in place of the text rating. E.g. Instead of displaying GB-15, it would display the corresponding BBFC rating symbol. That would make the parental rating quicker to identify at a glance, and would negate the need for plugins such as EmbyIcons. EmbyIcons is good, but only works by overlaying posters, and sometimes the icon covers the content title on the poster.

Thanks! for the feedback. I believe this is actually not a plugin bug. The plugin pulls items by type (Movie/Series/Episode) directly from Emby, it doesn't care which library folder they're in. So if your TV Shows library isn't showing up, it's almost certainly that library's content type isn't set to "Shows" in Emby. Can you tell me the content type of the TV show?

Hello, @Luke@ebr 1. I’ve already used AI to write some code and create an Xposed plugin to achieve this effect. Take a look—it looks pretty well, doesn’t it? I don't think it's terrible—I think it's fantastic! Screenbits 2026-07-29_164741.mp4 2. It’s true that some people prefer to continue seeing series posters instead of episode posters. So I suggest adding an option, such as "Show a poster on the detail screen", to satisfy both groups. If you don't want episode posters, turn this option off; if you want episode posters, turn this option on.
