Have you tried the other ports I listed?

Hi Luke, Thanks for responding quickly. Yes, the default shows the "On Now" as a group of posters indicating what is playing on each channel. Is there a way of replacing this with the full guide for those channels?

The library directory is going to the Movies folder. I made subfolders of the letters given the number of movies I have so I can sort quicker. And when I go directly to the folder it is in it plays fine. I am refreshing the metadata again now and will post the log soon.

Yes I tried that a couple times.

Just a guess. Is your library pointed to media/movies? Or did you point to each subdirectory like this: media/movies/a media/movies/b The library directory will search subdirectories so you don't need to list every alphabet. Having so many subdirectories may cause an issue. I have not tested that. I just put movies/ Hercules (2014) and not bother with each letter. You can sort by title. Why do you need so many subdirectories? Your log file shows that the older Hercules (1983) was found, but not your new version from 2014. Either it's listed in another subdirectory and that is not covered by the library. Or you have so many subdirectories listed that it takes a lot of time to refresh. Did you go to the admin / library and click on the threedots of the library that has this new movie and select scan the files from the drop down?11 Also possible, there might be something wrong with the media copy. Be sure it plays in another 3rd party player or if it's AV1 and AAC it should play even in a browser.

HI there, can you please provide a specific example? How to Report a Problem Thanks !

Hi, as opposed to what do they see now?

port is set to 8096

Try setting the port in the app to 443 or 80 or 8096 or 8920. Otherwise, you need to look more closely at how an: works...

Hello, I have been using my Emby Server for a couple of years now. I put a few movies up today, and for some reason the Server stopped identifying new movies. For example: I put Hercules (2014) in the proper folder and it is not appearing in Emby. When I go to Report, it identifies the folder exist but I still cannot play the film through Emby. I have refreshed metadata, rebooted Emby, and restarted my computer and none have worked. Please tell me if I am missing something. embyserver(5).txt

I'm glad to hear that it's working for you again. We'll have to find a way to detect this situation and warn about it in the app accordingly. Thanks a lot for the feedback,

Hi all, I have set up Virtual TV plugin with about 30 channels and would like to show these channels in "Guide" view by default for all users on the home screen (similar to Pluto TV). I am specifically referring to the "On Now" section of the home page. Is that possible?

Thanks, that was the problem. It must be a new Windows feature I hadn't seen it before but as always, this feature ends up making the workflow worse. I've now disabled it directly in the registry.

Media Browser has been a great name over the past several years but we feel we have outgrown it. It is no longer descriptive of what we really are and carries with it some preconceptions in the minds of both people who may have heard about or used us in the past and new people who have never heard of us. We want to change that. Google It.

Hi, it’s not an image file. It is rendered inline as an svg.

Universally that is not true, although it may happen in some situations.

Thank you for your input and suggestions. I will revise the wording in the next update. It has been a very intense few weeks, so I am taking a brief break from coding. Regarding the SDK, for now I can’t see a way to implement this feature, but it’s still on my roadmap. This will be my last post. Be back soon

I get ya and TBH I don't even watch tv when I'm online my time is spent looking at my cover art and backdrops and testing out scripts and stuff. I would rather spend my time modding my servers and tinkering with stuff seeing what works best and what looks best if I watch anything it's youtube.

Using the same name and port for both the browser and the app.

Way overkill just for an Emby server. The machine i have dedicated to Emby is just a small dell workstation i bought for around 50$ and it handles everything that has been thrown at it so far, multiple transcodes, end credit detection and much more. If all the machine has to do is run pure Emby and nothing else i would: Buy some small computer with an Intel CPU for the iGPU (not older than the 8xxx generation), stay at 8-16GB of memory and then use the saved money on some storage or something else you want. You can pretty much get old Dell computers thrown at you that can do the job without trouble. Replace the fans for some low noise, install Linux and you're off! If you still insist on buying an overkill computer you might change your mind when you see the price of memory and SSD storage.

That's how I was doing it, add netflix as one then hulu and so on until you are done. I just think it's a cool plugin I quite like it also it's good for watching live events under adding single stream it's quite great for that.

It just keeps transcoding forever though at a throttled speed when people pause their video or just quits the app.

I made a similar post on reddit a while ago but figured I'll try here as well. I was watching Space Jam the other day and noticed the seekbar had a basketball icon instead of the regular icon. I've never seen this changed on anything else. Thought it was maybe a new feature and a great idea. Is this icon somewhere in my folder? If so, I can't find it. or is it built into the container of the file? Apparently it will also show a pumpkin icon for Halloween movies.

I would avoid a ‘K’ model processor (no cooler included), as it will require a significant 3rd-party cooler (many will not even fit in a rack mount) to take advantage of any performance benefits; they are also power-hungry. And definitely don’t get an ‘F’ model.

Please look at Windows Settings > System > Display > Graphics (IIRC, or 'Advanced Display') There's a setting like "Manage Color for all Apps" or similar. It puts the whole desktop into a kind of HDR mode and tone-maps colors back-and-forth for all apps. For the Emby Windows app, this looks like HDR is already enabled and there's nothing to switch to for enabling HDR. Please try to disable this setting and retry - you should get the same behavior like you've seen before.
