Hi. I use HD Homeruns for recording my Live TV directly into Emby. What I am struggling with is the Closed Captions. We don't use them always, but there are times (like on Watson when Shimwell is speaking) that it would be handy to be able to see them. Problem is, I can't seem to get it figured out. Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to set up so that the recorded closed captions can be turned on at a per-program level?

Hello Luke, do you need more information?

As title reads. The installation of the package fails. Previous version was removed from the TV, tried it with different usb sticks, all attempts failed to install the new version. TV is SamsungUE65RU7102KXH.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kevinforeman.nzb360 NZB360. Integrates with Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Qbit/sabnzbd, Prowlarr, and more. Gives several 'upcoming', 'recently released', 'popular', and similar recommendation categories from a variety of sources, to browse and add to your library. Plus it integrates the calendar from all three apps nicely, displaying all of your 'to be downloaded' media in one place. One of my favorite tools outside the actual 'arr stack itself.

Hello guys, I think my server was hacked and they accesed every user on my emby server and they downloaded my personal pictures from the server, i am a little concern about this issue because it was family pictures and things of that nature, wondering if there is a way to deal with this type of situation of a way to delete the content from where the pictures got downloaded., i have the ip adress that seem to be invalid or mayve it was a VPN Firefox Windows 88.177.86.82

My Emby server is running on Windows, and I get all my content and do all my naming, on Windows too. I use automation to do all this work, so if I screwed up making my templates, then all those episodes would have a problem too. Another good guess, but no sale. As I said above, I've fixed the nfo's for these 2 episodes manually, and I prevented changes as suggested by @GrimReaper. So those episodes won't get messed up again if I reload the metadata for those shows for any reason. So it's all fixed now.

Working on 4.10 Beta compatibility, should also work with 4.9-stable.. you may want to set the site theme and settings theme to black, otherwise it gets kinda ugly. Emby Theme 4.10 Release.css

Think I'm having a similar issue. Recently migrated my Emby server that I use this plug in with from Windows 11 to another Windows 11 machine. Everything went fine and the plug in works. However very oddly, for DV 8.1 files, it doesn't write that information. It does Fort DV7, HDR10+ etc, but not DV8.1. It just writes UHD (bitrate). I've also just realised it is not correctly writing if it is a hybrid DV HDR10+ file. Any ideas? Where is the latest version for the plug in available to download?

Right click on it, or long press - "Remove from Continue Watching"

A logical point. Try renmaming the problem ones with the two suggestions above and see if that works. Another issue I've seen is that with Apple iOS hardware you can add a "forced space" different quotations single and double and a few other odd characters that look normal, but won't match in an online search. Sometimes typing a title out on a MacOS keyboard gets one of these odd characters.

Having the exact same issue on exactly the same HW. Adding my +1 for an update

Guys, thanks for your suggestions, but if my naming convention was a problem, I'd have many more misidentifications. And the two errors were a single episode in 2 different shows. And this is out of many thousands of episodes in almost a thousand shows. So I truly doubt my naming convention is causing problems for Emby.

Hello i run with 4.9.3.0 If i want to remove an item from 'Continue watching' entry, i try to set a seen it but it still remains! Is it a bug or it's the normal behavior? If not a bug how to remove from 'Continue watching' without watching till the end? Thanks

I do run Seerr, looked at bit into it last night. Have to look at it a bit more Thanks, btw I know about Google. But it was kinda a question to see what others use. BTW, is there any of this sites, that maybe is connected to an app. That could be set up with notifications when movies/series are announced in selected categories. I'm talking about new stuff, not what I have on my server. Sorry if I'm not good at explaining what I trying to find

I mostly use this TV Insider - TV News, Show Reviews, Sneak Peeks, What To Watch and this What to Watch: In Theaters and On Streaming | Rotten Tomatoes or this Movies & TV Series - Release Calendar or TV Premiere Dates (2026) - Metacritic The list goes on Use google and search for upcoming tv shows and movies Or trending tv shows and movies Its 1 search away

Have you tried Seerr? (jellyseerr/Overseerr)?

Yay! Here's hoping we won't have to wait half a year again for the next update.

This works for what I have. Maybe bad formulated question, but I try to find out what is coming of new movies and series. Releas dates etc.

Small Update and fixes Emby Theme.css

Look at app_backup.py in https://github.com/jonjonsson/Emby-MDBList-Collection-Creator It does both.

Hi, I need to perform some library "maintenance" (what I'm calling "the great purge"), I've built a web app that will look at all media and cleanup based on a custom scoring system. What I would like to do is retrieve users watch history and favourites via the API without the need to authenticate as the user themselves. Is this possible out of the box? If not, can I build a plugin for Emby that exposes an API endpoint to do this? Thanks

I have Emby server running in a container and all was well for ages. This is version 4.9.3.0 but I have tried the beta too with no difference. Not sure when this broke as I don't often copy into this tree until I sort my pictures. The host OS is Debian 13. I have tried removing the whole library and re-adding but doesn't then pull in any of the items in the tree at all now. I can open the pictures files inside the container when I go into the container interactively. The volume spec is: --volume /home/colin/Pictures:/mnt/share2:ro Read Only, but shouldn't need RW? And worked before.... Log attached with some items removed, but nothing I can see some permission denied, but these dirs perms are set so the emby user can't see these contents. This hasn't been an issue until now, and the scan does seem to continue through these i.e. this has always worked okay. Removing and adding the dir from this tree I see: embyserver.txt:2026-03-10 15:24:35.929 Debug LibraryMonitor: Change detected to /mnt/share2/Pictures 2026 embyserver.txt:2026-03-10 15:24:35.929 Debug LibraryMonitor: New file refresher created for /mnt/share2/Pictures 2026 embyserver.txt:2026-03-10 15:25:31.685 Debug LibraryMonitor: Change detected to /mnt/share2/Pictures 2026 So it is detected, but the "Pictures 2026" top level never appears in the UI (or any new items in existing trees). Any ideas? embyserver.txt
