I'm grateful for this topic. My server has, despite not being set to, created a load of automatic collections. I've just gone to delete them and got the frankly terrifying "Deleting these items will delete them from both the file system and your media library" message. Before I inadvertently destroy weeks of work, can it be confirmed that this is absolutely only the technical data relating to the collections, but not the videos within?

Okay. It was more than 10 years ago. It is a little more than 12. Hence this user in 2014 wanted larger unwatched count on their TV series (and collections) artwork. Then in 2018 options for the green watched checkmark were discussed. This isn't a recent change. It can be discussed again.

Thank you Luke.

Does Emby have full functionality and work on the new Fire TV Select devices from Amazon?

HI, can you get it to happen again?

Hi, it does not, no.

I know Infuse offers the ability to create a "streamlink" file that will play my Apple purchases (movies/tv shows). I had read that Emby can use strm files. Does that work the same way as Infuse where you click on the episode and the file takes you to the Apple TV site to play the title?

Yes.

I honestly don't understand the reluctance here nor what is unclear in all this. There's an image type that can be assigned, is used by Emby core and is utilized by multiple plugins (including your own CA, as stated). There's no naming convention for it (although it is saved under certain one within server's metadata folder, breaking opt-in option to save artwotk next to media). There should be one. As elaborated few years ago, it's the difference between: and That was only CA plugin example. There are multiple plugins nowdays that overlay that episode landscape image (Iconic, EmbyIcons, EmbyNewOverlay...).

I guess you need to look at the links in my post above. Or not port forward. Any server is as secure as the admin ( You )..... One guide can change or be faulty in many ways, some are easy, others hard. But you need to use your brain and learn if you want to NOT get in this situation....

It ain't, you're getting Poster if image type Primary selected.

I assume this will be applied going forward ?

I'd not tried since getting back from holiday, but I've just had another go and updating using pkg update && pkg upgrade and then updating emby with pkg add -f https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.9.5.0/emby-server-freebsd13_4.9.5.0_amd64.pkg runs but emby won't start as a service afterwards. Nothing in the emby log files as it's just failing to start. Rolled back to 4.9.3.0 which is working fine

Following guides I read years ago and have since forgotten. The docker image is nginx:latest, but I don't know if that means just the latest at the time I created the container or if it's updating itself when needed. I was running calibre out of a docker container some time back, then needed to update for a specific feature and was told updating was impossible, I could only delete it (losing all my data) and recreate it. Which seems wrong, but the path of least friction in that case was just recreating my library on my Windows PC. Since Emby is running on my Synology NAS, that's not an option here.

Then find out... When you say things like that, I wonder how you managed to set up a non-trivial system using docker, nginx, and Cloudflare in the first place. Paul

Ohhhh wow and you ask Emby and us what is going on...... And you do not know what you are doing.... Server management is not set and forget, if you open up your router / firewall. Where did you loose you pacifier ? how to docker - Søg Docker 101 Tutorial | Docker Docker Tutorial - GeeksforGeeks

If you set that image type to "Primary" you should get the episode image there. Isn't that what you're after?

I'm running it in docker and frankly have no idea how updates work there...

I guess, if you have NOT updated NGINX, but that it self is a security issue

Very unlikely! Paul

Hi there! Out of curiousity, wich integrations Violate wich term of use? Would like to know as well.

Hollis, I understand. Perhaps your choice of the phrase "regular users" is not a complete way of explaining who might like to use this customized text option. There are perhaps 98% of users that might be described as "regular", but there could be only 1 user in 5000 who actually wants to remove the text under the library names. Adding any more complexity to software runs the risk of loosing popularity from users who get lost and cannot understand all the options. Software has a history of failing for exactly this issue. This has to be weighed in, before adding new features. As I mentioned, there is a way to remove the titles on the web app. I understand you don't prefer to do it that way. Does anyone else want to remove the titles and is not interested in doing it with custom css? Do users from the other versions want to remove library titles? Maybe anyone who wants either feature can post here so we can see who actually wants the feature. Add an agree +1 or like, if you think the an admin or user switch box feature to remove library titles is NOT needed. Use a disagree -1 if you would like to use such a feature. Knowing who might like to use it, is really good info so the developers can create features that people would like to use. Maybe a lot of people would use it. I just can't get that from just writing a "regular user' might like it. No offense intended.

Hello Luke, This is related to telling Alexa next song. If one song has been playing for about more than 10 minutes, and you tell it next song, it will not go to the next track. The other I issue I mentioned above happens randomly when you tell Alexa next song and it begins playing in a different echo group than the one it was originally playing on. The only way to get it to start playing from the correct echo group again is to tell it to play from Amazon music and then switch back to the Emby for the playlist. This happened to me on Saturday morning. Thank you for the support

I recently found that my long running MacOS Emby Server randomly went back to the start up Wizard. I have it scheduled to restart every Monday, after the restart it was back at the start up wizard like I just installed it. I luckily had a backup that i was able to restore from. I just wanted to make it known that this is an issue you can run into.
