Are there any logs in this dir? C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\EmbyMedia.EmbyTheater_svmepx4c03f7m\LocalCache\logs That might show what's going on.

The windows command to switch directories is "cd" I would suggest first ensuring Control Panel File Explorer Options has option to show hidden files and folder. So open that up and then select the View tab and tick the "Show hidden files, folders and drives" and then click Apply You can just type in %AppData% in File Explorer and browse what is there

Different approach – native plugin! - A Docker container is no longer required. Each configured row becomes a real Emby library, created and kept in sync automatically under the plugin's data folder. For every upcoming movie and TV episode the plugin writes a proper library entry — a poster with the release date badged in, a backdrop for the hero image, overview and cast, and the actual trailer downloaded locally and surfaced through Emby's native Trailer button (so it plays inside Emby instead of kicking Apple TV/tvOS users out to YouTube). Because these are ordinary library items, they behave like any other media in EmbyHighlights Multiple configurable rows, each its own home-screen library (e.g. a "Digital", a "Physical" and an "In Cinemas" row) with its own release-date type and an "IN CINEMAS" badge where it applies. English & German for badges, dates, overview text and the settings page itself. No manual dependencies: yt-dlp is auto-downloaded on any Docker image, ffmpeg is optional. Runs on a daily schedule; a built-in log viewer means no SSH needed to see what happened. Requires Sonarr and/or Radarr. A free TMDB API key is optional (only needed for local trailer downloads). Beta – feel free to test it and report bugs or suggest improvements. *It's vibe coded — built with AI — so review the code before using it in production. Use at your own risk! ComingSoonPlugin.dll

Hi, thanks! Tailscale creates a private encrypted network between your devices, so in principle it should be a good way to access Emby remotely without opening ports on your router. I haven’t tested Tailscale with Traxx yet. Traxx currently restricts non-HTTPS connections to regular local network addresses, while Tailscale normally uses a 100.x.x.x address. Because of that, a standard Tailscale Emby address may currently be rejected. I’ll investigate adding proper Tailscale support. Thanks for the suggestion!

Devs need to see logs to tell what's going on.

The Emby scanner isn't working; it's been stuck at 14.5% for 8 hours, then it went up to 14.9%. and stop aguain. don't move, don't do anything. Whats happening? what can i do to contour this problem?

I'm having the same problem, but luckily I was able to revert to the previous version using CODEX GPT 5.6 SOL.

Tried these. I also tried updating to the preview update as well. Nothing seems to do anything.

Hi All, I have a very random issue, I’m uploading a 100% 1080p media file and then Emby sees this as 1440p from some reason. I thought i was doing something wrong so i put the same file through plex and it goes through as 1080p. Has anyone got any ideas as to what is happening please? Thank you for you comments in advance. Cheers, Chris

thank you. I am closing this. I have a customer domain now and find it easier with my setup.

i have exactly the same issue 2026-07-11 07:46:04.745 Info SessionManager: Playback stopped reported by app Alexa 1.0.0 on Amazon Echo playing Unnamed item. Position: unknown ms. PlaySessionId: . IsPaused: False

Try my other plugin which has integration to emby expiry manager Emby New overlay plugin

@MrGenius1@ZanderKeen Maybe my plugin can help you out

Hi! I decided to share my fallback plugin for the "Are You Still Watching" function. This lightweight Emby Server plugin automatically stops playback of all (or selected) users at a time you choose, each day. It's a simple and reliable way to make sure streams end when they should, like after bedtime, without relying on individual "Are You Still Watching?" settings within the Emby App themselves. The reason why i created this plugin is because i experience issues with the "Are You Still Watching?" function not stopping playbacks for the users and causing ghost-streams. I am using this plugin myself aswell and experience no issues. The plugin is lightweight, so it runs well even on lower-end hardware. You can find the plugin and more information here: https://github.com/codedbyk0Lm/EmbyPlugin.AreYouStillWatching-Fallback

Yeah you are right it doesnt look good but the problem is box sets have a background under each poster when the plugin applies the overlay banner it includes the whole poster including the bg underneath it. So It seems to go out of the main poster image. Honestly im not sure im gonna be able to fix that because it will affect normal poster views.. but if possible i will provide a separate banner option specifically for box sets. In the meantime may be use a badge instead of banner if that helps

Hello I don't have this option. Was it removed, I can't find it anywhere?

MFA after seven years?

Yeah it is possible and will be available in future update.

hi and thanks for your work. Can we connect remotely using tailscale? Or how can we? Thank again

Welcome to Emby. Hope you find what you are looking for here. Emby is great product, and the devs are pretty good about helping out as much as they can.
