I disabled ProjectIvy whilst I was using Twitch to do the screen record.

I saw the app icon in your video but when I saw the top bar with Home, Shop, etc isn't that the stock launcher?

Been using that for about 2 years now.

Is there any Update to that topic or ist more like a internal "we will talk about it in the near future"? Until everyone forgot about it.

I can send you a new copy in PM. I am still waiting to hear back from the Emby team on letting me publish it however. Let me ping them.

Good catch, and the cause turned out to be a small embarrassment. Those section titles don't come from the app: the top row is a separate little extension with its own bundle, and I build its text from the same kind of string file. That file had the Catalan and the Spanish in it — and not the English, because the English is the key I type in the code and it never occurred to me that it also had to be written down as a translation of itself. So the extension shipped with two languages inside and no English at all. With no match for your system language and no English to fall back to, tvOS picks the first one it finds in there. That's Catalan. The app itself does carry the English, which is exactly why only the top row was wrong and everything else looked fine. Fixed for the next build: the English is written out in the extension too, and the extension now declares its development language the way the app already did. One honest caveat while I'm here. The app speaks English, Catalan and Spanish and nothing else yet, so if your setup is in some other language, the top row will now say English rather than something random — correct, but still not your language. If there's a language you'd want it in, say so in this thread. I'd rather translate the ones people actually use than guess.

I experienced this a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for the link. I added that I to have the issue with current versions running. (Seeing the thread is older with different versions.)

Same issue here with current versions...Goes to ANDROID ScreenSaver and un-pauses the pause and plays in the background. Emby Server 4.9.5.0 Nvidia Shield Pro Emby Android Ver 3.5.55

Yes, that would be good. You can also try /duration 3 - this should get the data from the past 3 days.

Okay thanks, I had caught it falling back from DV to HDR but I don't watch much SDR content on my TV. Would add to this thread.

Thanks for the quick reply and yes, I forgot that. There are 2 remux logs on the server. I first started playback on my PC using firefox (~19:24 in the logs). At 2026-09-03 19:25:16.506 is the first entry where I tried it on the Samsung TV. I was playing "Der Herr der Ringe - Die Gefährten". I've had this issue with a different movie some time ago but had no time digging into this. Am I missing some information?

Found this plugin, but have no idea, how I could use it for my goal. Pugin HomeScreen Companion

Does not matter it seems. I am watching a standard 1080P TV show currently and it happened...Thus it reminded me to add that to be looked into. I ended up needing to change the ANDROID screen saver to from 5 mins to 15.

Hi, didn't find any info on that: I would love to create a playlist for movies (Example: Top 100 Movies of All Time) based on IMDB ranking or the BFI Top Ranking. BFI Ranking Is there any way to achieve this? ### If it's not possible/thinkable of creating this via a script (Reading IMDB-ID)..... is there a way to create "manually" playlists for movies like that? Would be nice to see, which movies are existing in my collection and which movies are missing or which I didn't watch til now. Thank you for inputs and thoughts!

Is that with any content or Dolby Vision/HDR specifically?

Debloating goes a lot further than just uninstalling some user apps, it also removes/disables some system apps. That said it shouldn't be necessary to do that, and I don't know how much it would actually help, but my device is very single purposed so I removed just about everything to keep it lean and using Projectivity launcher. Take a look at this, there's additional things suggested RE launchers but for the most part can just do the abd shell uninstall commands. https://florisse.nl/shield-debloat/

Hi Luke... Also...When you PAUSE a show/movie you are watching, and the ANDROID screen saver comes on, the show un-pauses and continues to play behind the screen screensaver. You can hear the audio as it plays.

Not sure why the ATV app took 12 seconds, as just tried it again and it was 3 or 4. There's nothing on my Shield that shouldn't be. I have uninstalled everything I don't use. Hopefully @Lukecan marry up the log with the video and see what the issue is, but I've always had slow load times for the UA app, going back a couple of years now.

Is there some reason why Emby can't include libplacebo filtering in its ffmpeg build like Jellyfin does? I'm semi tempted to just bind mount the JF version and make a shim for ffmpeg to make a POC that it can work.

I have a rule set up to tag all the movies in my James Bond collection. It's tagged everything except the Connery entries; no idea why that would be?

There has to be something wrong with your device or your network (DNS?) because even 12 seconds for the ATV app is way too long. Have you tried to debloat your Shield? 2026-09-03 14-15-26.mp4

Thanks @yocker. I do only have 1 real TV library.

Hi, we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

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