Finally chased this down. It is resolved for the next update to the app. Thanks.

@MAX92I take that back, i can't replicate it. Is still a problem if you downgrade to the release version? Please do what i said and also send a screenshot of the info screen of that movie like this:

Possibly, but it depends on what screen you come from, because there is only one Various Artists entry in your server database.

Hi @Aadavramduttdid you try clicking forgot username or password ?

It's in the advance section. But never mind, i can replicate the problem.

Hi, not yet, sorry.

I think it should be resolved for the next app update. Thanks,.

I don't find "enable detailed debug," in EmbyIcons settings

Please restart Emby, go to the EmbyIcons settings, enable detailed debug, move the position of an icon and then send me the log.

I run Emby (portable) nativly on Windows Server behind a reverse proxy. This makes GPU acceleration work without any hassle. Emby runs as a service with a seperate non-admin user that only has change rights to the library folders and emby's own folder. (If you do read only you get a lot of issues). Emby's own admin user has no rights to log on remotely and none of the users have delete/admin rights. Next to that i have controlled folder acces active and the regular firewall from Windows+router

I would really love to see a native 4-player Multiview option added to Emby Live TV. My ideal implementation would be: Up to 4 Live TV channels playing simultaneously in a 2x2 grid Ability to select/change each channel independently Audio from whichever window is currently selected One-click/remote-control option to make any pane full screen and return to Multiview Support for normal Emby Live TV tuner/IPTV channels, including dynamically created sports channels Designed to work well with TV remotes, Fire TV, Android TV, Apple TV, and similar living-room clients My main use case is sports. During NFL, NHL, college football, etc., I often have several games available at the same time. All of the channels already exist in my Emby guide, so being able to select four of them and watch them together inside Emby would be incredibly useful. I would strongly prefer this to using a separate IPTV application because Emby is already where my Live TV, guide, users, and devices are managed. A 2x2 four-channel Multiview with selectable audio would be perfect.

With the last version 5.60.2.0 beta :

Third time's the charm...?

Yes I was also wondering, is the ask basically to remember what sub tab you were in as you navigate between different sections?

I'd assume that was a typo and that OP meant "Transcoding" tab. Though, tbh, I'm not quite clear what is this topic all about in the first place - about not remembering last visited tab? If so, I reckon I prefer it that way, always having same landing tab/anchor page, else there's a high probability of a lot of inexperienced users scratching their heads eventually.

Or were you asking if that was the only episode in the series it was happening on? In which case, yes, as that is exactly what the log says, I'm guessing the others are fine.

Over a week later and nothing further? It's obviously a bug in the Android App when running on Android-TV as it doesn't EVER happen with the Android-TV version.

NJ, Not sure if this helps. You can try switching the audio file so the EC3 or AAC is the first choice and DTS is the second audio. This can be done with MKVToolNix or ffmpeg, which probably could do multiple files at once using a command script. Since this is not a transcoding task, it should take around 1 minute pre media on an average speed server with a 2 hour 1080P file. After doing that, most users will get the audio that works best for them first. The alternate audio is available on the media page in the pull down, for those users with everything working for higher end audio. The best designed automatic solution can fail when there is a change in connection speed from Internet traffic so the first handshake test by the Emby server, sees any audio or video issue and starts transcoding anyway to AAC. This can happen on a weekend because of heavy Internet traffic issues and not be a problem mid-week. So any automatic feature would still flip back and forth. Making AAC the first audio choice is a good idea, but that may mean transcoding and adding a new AAC audio track, which is more work. I believe AAC is better for streaming delivery because EC3 always requires more overhead processing by the user to playback. Depending on the user's setup, this can maybe get in the way of processing TCP packets and cause stuttering. The Emby server, I believe will often transcode EC3 anyway to AAC which, I think, forces a video transcode. So, even the best automatic solution will continue to cause issues. Having AAC audio, first choice, is more dependable. Any automaticfeature would also run into comment auio tracks which are typicaly AAC or AC3 stereo. You really don't want commen tracks automatically chosen. If you left the media with all the audio tracks attached an automatic solution can run into this issue, where my idea to prep your media with your preferred track in audio 1, won't have this probem. If the user wants higher end, they can pick EC3, DTS or True Audio. I think Emby remembers the audio choice per media, maybe even there is a way to pick an audio type by each user. That leave the issue you metnion above. Can Emby find audio track 2 DTS and choose it for a particular user? I think admin of a lbrary collection needs to prep the media to work best for the users. Every profesional site streaming media does this type of prep with scripts that set audio preferences and transcodes video to what works best for users. Typical online site has the HD level user have access to pick higher end resolutions and audio. Automatic features, trying to match users exactly to media preferences, from media that has every audio mixed in, is never going to work 100% of the time. Professional online sites would, I think, refuse to code an all automated feature and choose instead to prep the media, with best choice in audio track 1.. Anyway, hope that makes sense.

Anyone with a Synology Nas willing to help test? As this is for testing it would be best with some knowledge of the terminal in case anything breaks.

Im guessing other users are using a different guide data, because I have seen images with programmes displayed. Any how, guessing I will have to live with channel logos Thanks for the info

What he means is the Roku is actually requesting images in WebP format from your Emby server. But is being given SVG images instead. This is because Emby server doesn't support SVG and cannot convert it into WebP to feed into the Roku. So the Roku is given the SVG in normal format, not WebP. The Roku goes, I do not understand this and throws an error and refuses to display it. Other clients, such as the web app, also request WebP. But they also contain a web rendering engine. So the SVG is also sent uncoverted to them. But unlike the Roku, the web rendering engine inside can render the SVG in normal format. This is the difference. The Roku does not have a web browser possible to create. The Roku does not have a web rendering engine.

Would there be a way to make the auto remote option be for certain devices? Here's my issue. A Family member has had auto selected on their Roku. They have Gig speed, wired internet to their Roku, but if they are on auto quality, Emby keeps transcoding down to 720p for their movies. When I had them select the manual 4k-120mbps the file plays direct perfectly. I get I can force the auto remote, but if it's for all devices that means that overrides their phones and iPads which don't need direct play (especially if they are on data). Could there be a way to select what devices somehow, or even IP address based auto setting?

Sorry must be me being stupid. You say emby doesn't support svg, so can't show programme images in 'on now' but in the tv guide it is able to. I would have thought (but known to be wrong), that if it can display in the guide, it should be able to in 'on now'

@gillmacca01Yes. If you want the images displayable for all your devices, Roku included, PNG or WebP are the way to go. We will also fix the display logic for the channel grid item so it is smarter. Thanks for letting us know about this issue. If you spot anymore keep them coming...
