lol at this almost decade old request...

Thanks, my system has been using the legacy backdrop 1-2-3 and wanted to change to default, been fighting fanart popping up randomly for ages and this will fix that Appreciate the help and quick response.

That was PDQ

Hi @Luke, I wanted to follow up with a new test and a couple of screenshots. I found that the users group did not have write permission on the destination folders. I corrected the permissions, and transfers are now progressing. My Emby Server on the Synology DS720+ is now updated to 4.10.1.0; the Android app is still 3.5.55. There still seems to be an inconsistency in the download notifications. At 20:30, Emby reported “Download completed” for La Revanche des Cerises Trotinettes. At the same time, another Emby notification still showed “Downloading 3 items”, listing that title along with other items, while Episode 4 was at 49%. Could this indicate that the same item is being queued or processed more than once, or might the notification simply be stale? I’ve attached the screenshots. Please let me know if a fresh server log from this test would help. Thanks!

I just checked my install with Steve McQueen, this is what I see for both. First is from Bullitt, and the 2nd from 12 Years a Slave. This is with Emby doing 100% of the work. Nothing manual from me.

Using the latest version of Universal Android app and the stutter is unbearable still. Setup is: 1 docker running Jellyfin, 1 docker running Emby. Both pointing to same library. On Sony Bravia TV, Jellyfin renders ASS subtitle overlays fine with zero Stutter. Emby is unwatchable. Moonfin is also installed on the TV, and it also runs fine off the Emby server. So with everything being the same: Server, media, network etc. The only conclusion is that the Emby App has issues. From searches etc. this seems to have been an issue for years now. Every other App out there seems to have solved it, why are we still having issues?

Can you access it via localhost:8096 on the machine the server is running on? What are you running it on?

The solution to this on Server 2025 is to enable caching of SSL pages. On Server this is disabled, while on a desktop OS it is enabled. To enable it simply go to the following reg key and change it from a 1 to a 0. After that it will install just fine, no reboot required. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings] "DisableCachingOfSSLPages"=dword:00000000

Workaround found — Private Network Access (PNA) seems to be the root cause I had the same issue: web browser on the TV connects to Emby fine (http://192.168.x.x:8096), but the native app always said "server not found." Digging into this, it looks like TitanOS's Emby app is a web app with a public origin, and Chromium's Private Network Access (PNA) spec blocks requests from a public-origin context to a "private" IP address space (RFC1918: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16) unless a permission handshake succeeds — which apparently doesn't work correctly in this app. The fix: give your Emby server a second IP address that falls outside the RFC1918 ranges, so PNA classifies it as "public" instead of "private" (even though it's not actually reachable from the internet). I used an address from the CGNAT range 100.64.0.0/10 (RFC 6598), since it's never used for real internet routing: Added a secondary IP (e.g. 100.64.x.x/32) as an alias on the server's existing network interface, alongside its normal LAN IP. Added a static route on my router so that destination 100.64.x.x/32 is reachable via the server's normal LAN IP as next-hop. Entered that new 100.64.x.x address (with port 8096) in the Emby app on the TV instead of the normal 192.168.x.x address. That's it — the app connected immediately. No port forwarding, no public exposure, no DNS changes needed, entirely within the local network. This matches what others reported here (public IP worked, local DNS override broke it) — it all points to PNA's IP-space classification rather than any real internet routing being involved. Hope this helps someone else stuck on this!

Sorry I've been quite busy lately. I just tried again. Attached are the general log and all transcoding logs from the server. I also sent the logs from the Android TV app for the use 'Cédric' around 10:50 UTC. Ignore the playback of episode 1 I started first as there was some issue with the metadata for this episode which results in multiple versions of the file although there is only one file. After that I did some other tests. First with stopping playback around 10 minutes and resuming. This results in the file playing again from the stopped moment, but the subtitles showing are those from the start of the file. Then I tried to reproduce the subtitles not being enabled on starting the next episode. The first few times this worked as expected but this was with files I had already played in the weeks before so I guess Emby remembers which subtitle to use from the previous playback. Next I Started episode 93 and fast forwarded to the end to allow it to auto start episode 94 which hasn't been played before yet. Now there was no subtitle enabled when the episode starts. I tried to select it manually while playing but this didn't work. I think I've had some instances before where the sub started displaying about 2 or 3 minutes after selecting it during playback but I'm not sure. I"ve also attached the MediaInfo for episode 94. logs.zip Naruto.094.v4.480p.DVD.Dual-Audio.FLAC2.0.Hi10P.x264-JySzE.mkv.MediaInfo.txt

No, because I'm not using it as it doesn't work as well as the Android-TV app.

Yes, and multiple paths could be listed. Though I don't imagine many users will have them scattered around in more than 1-2 folders.

A series could be stored in multiple locations.

Good morning, hope Yall have a good weekend

To be fair, I'm glad that a feature like this was implemented so quickly. Having the base integrated makes it a lot easier to to build on it instead of injecting the complete codebase. Perhaps some stuff like Spotlight height, Logo and Plot or tagline positioning + Trailer support will make it into Emby officially someday. We never know.

Select "Always show season folders" for "Preferred TV show display" under your user Display settings.

TV shows never had it, as there's no tracks info. But true, maybe basics: path/size/Date Added should be displayed as well.

Just because I don't want to create a new topic... In the browser is there a way to group all episodes into their season? On mine they're one long row. I rather have it like in a app. Where it has season pic with ep count in upper right corner. Is there a way to do that in the browser? instead of looking like the pic.

On mine it was selected. It just doesn't show it under series. You have to go into each episode. I think it should show under about. So it is easier to locate and read IMO.

@GrimReaper It's not in the sidebar either. @ebrPermissions fully investigated @Luke Saved permissions again, no change. Don't put any more effort into this guys, I can access it from adding it as a Home Section which is good enough, and clearly all the easy fixes haven't worked. What I wanted to use it for (making a TV show list for another user) is actually better served as adding a new collection (which I didn't know were global).

Where?

Emby has stop and fails to record programs sellected directly on the "Guide", but does continue to sucessfully record the series programs that have been and remain on its schedule. I just updated the Dashboard on my QNAP TS-253Be (QTS 5.2.10.3577) to Emby ver. 4.10.1.0, and on Saturday night, Oct. 03, I have a recording "Scheduled" that was sellected directly on the "Guide". I will inform if it was sucesfully recorded, or if the anamoly continues.

the Live TV section is controlled via Feature Access for the user, so when you say you have permissions checked off - can you show us what that looks like?

How do I remove the live tv section from my Home Screen on Apple TV? There is no option for it in the web app and yes I have premiere and I also have permissions checked off.
