A show is scheduled to record where episodes are being "simulcast" on two different stations.... in other words, two different stations air the same season/episode of that show at the same time. My question is if Emby tries to record from lets say channel A and the recording fails for whatever reason... will it attempt to record from channel B? See example below.

Couple of apps, ive been experimenting with. Both of them allow you to watch in sync with other persons using separate devices. Tested it with 4 devices at the same time, only the iPhone on 5G was slightly out of sync, maybe 100/200ms. The basic premise is, you choose something to watch, create a party, other users can then join the ip/port of the watch party ( i was using port forward during test, havent tested using tail scale etc), they choose the username they have signed into on their embay app. Select the devices, from start playback, then start selected. You can use seek to sync all users, has to be 1:00 etc, entering 1 will take you back 1. Pause play end all do what they say. Chat box is available also. A couple of thinbgs i am workig through, sometimes the app doesn play on an external device, create the party again, the party creator, go back tp lobby, rejoin party and select devices again and it should work. The emby app has to be open on screen for phones, android tvs, shield etc. Two versions of the app. A standalone version that only has the watch party. A full suite version, that syncs with trakt to create a smart playlist, using your watched/liked history from trakt, also universe builder (MCU Playlist for example), analysis of genres, year etc to give yoou suggestions watch to watch in your library. Send to radarr and sonarr for missing items. links https://github.com/marker197/Standalone-Watch-Party-For-Emby https://github.com/marker197/Emby-Watch-Party Disclaimer. Claude AI has helped me with bug fixing, socket issues, stuff. that was way above my level of experience. Plus the pain of writing a full install and user guide. If anyone uses or test it, give me somefeedback please.. I built them using synology container manager. USe docker or the container magaer to build and deploy. running on a hp micro gen 8 with a xeon cpu, 12gig of ram, 0 cpu usage because it only instructs emby to play, doesnt do any hard lifting.

Channels don't show up as option for mapping.

If you are planning to delete an item from library while keeping the file don't forget to toggle on the emby ignore settings under the library settings. Be cautious when checking "Also delete from my disk", you may lose your media permanently.... as to my experience i Used windows and it puts them in recycle bin, however I can not guarantee same will happen to you. Also I haven't test it in other OS... so it is completely upto you how you use this plugin. Test the plugin and let me know if there are issues on it

Unfortunately, version 3.5.37 did not fix the issue for me. I tried again, but this is still not resolved. The behavior is exactly the same as before. A bit more information that may help narrow this down: This problem only started after upgrading from One UI 7.0 / Android 15 to One UI 8.0 / Android 16. I also tested Emby on my older Samsung S8 running One UI 1.0 / Android 9, and the issue does not occur there. Samsung’s official release notes for the SM-S9080 (S22 Ultra) (https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-S9080/CHC/doc.html) do mention DeX-related changes in the One UI 8.0 / Android 16 update, including enhanced display support for DeX. So it looks like something may have changed in Samsung DeX’s external display handling after the Android 16 upgrade. Hope this helps with debugging.

It is intentional.

Hi, I'm having the following problem with version 2.0.7. While playing a TV series, the playback froze briefly three times within two minutes, then jumped back about two seconds and continued playing. I stopped it after two minutes and watched it using Infuse, where everything played back flawlessly. The log file is attached. embyserver.txt

One minor comment about changing the server display name... Somehow if the server name contains the word "emby" in any form (e.g., "EMBY", "Emby", etc.), the title of the media server in the shown in the browser tab will always change the word "Emby" to "Media Server". For example, if I change the Server name to "Emby Server", it will become "Media Server Server", or if I change the name to "MY-EMBY-SERVER", it will become "MY-Media Server-SERVER". As I said, this is just one minor detail that I noted, nothing significant, as long as I don't use the word "Emby" then I'm fine.

Strange. I didn't create or import these folders nor have I used any of the Synology apps that are referenced. They were created on 21 JUN 2026 which was 4 days after I installed the EMBY server software. Other than updates, there's been no other change to my NAS in years. I couldn't correlate any update with the appearance of the folder either. I asked as a point of curiosity. I started by asking EMBY users because it seemed the path of least resistance. I'll just have to research this deeper. Thanks to everyone for their input.

what can I provide for someone to help me with emby connect? I have the hardest time with this and everywhere I read on how to do it.. "Its easy" ... i havent found any part of this easy... What is the secret? I have registered, validated and try to add user to emby but all i get is the error. every time

Hi everyone Home Cinema Control 1.2.1 is now available. The main addition in this release is support for Sony Bravia TVs, expanding HCC’s existing TV and home cinema device integrations. This version also includes several fixes and internal improvements to make configuration and general operation smoother. The new version is available on GitHub and Docker Hub. GitHub Release Docker Hub As always, any testing, feedback or bug reports would be greatly appreciated

my bad, it was the Xbox sign in that was failing and that stopped emby

Here are the logs emby-4.9-lag.txt

I would say they are not a season but need to have their own folder and not mixed together with season 1. I will set the setting to always show folders. Because Sonarr has them separate and not mixed in, and it is easier to find them when viewing in emby if they are in separate folder. As a UI/UX nerd it would be nice but not necessary to have a single season to display the eps across the screen and then display folders if a +1 of either a special or another season is added

Booting from USB was a thing well before 2015. When you stated that it died and wouldn't boot from disk or USB I interpreted that to mean it wasn't even POSTing. Hence the battery recommendation. It would be good to bring it back to life while you build a new one and can take your time doing it. Maybe try different USB ports, drives and even OS to see if it gets further.

Emby Expiry Manager : Schedule library items for automatic deletion. Pick any movie, series, season, or individual episode, set a date/time, and a background scheduler removes it automatically at your chosen interval. Two removal modes are supported: delete from disk, which removes the item and its files permanently, and library only, which removes it from Emby while keeping the files. For library-only removals, the item is moved into a _deleted folder placed automatically inside the same library creating .embyignore file inside so Emby's scanner never recreates an empty shell for it. Shows badge and gives warning before the item leaves emby library (requires plugin emby new overlay v1.3.2.0 which is available in the forum page plugin/new badge overlay plugin) EmbyExpiry.dll

lo que me he dado cuenta es que me añade siempre todos los nuevos archivos con fecha 01-01-2000 es curioso sin respetar la fecha de origen del archivo. y esta puesto bien en opciones avanzadas creo que el problema puede venir por ahi.... toda la biblioteca esta como si fueran los archivos el 01-01-2000 solución a esto? gracias

Release note Version 1.3.2.0 Removed QbitStrm integration entirely (both backend and frontend) — the plugin no longer detects, badges, or reads any state from QbitStrm. Removed the QbitStrm tab and all related settings from the config page (base path, downloading/premiere/awaiting-premiere badge labels, colours, opacity, and display modes). Expiry (EmbyExpiry) integration. (plugin that removes items from your Emby library on a scheduled time) EmbyNewOverlay.dll

I think the latest one. I will check.

It gives the same error. I'll stick with version 2.2.8 of the TV software, which works. I've installed and uninstalled it many times, and with different versions, and it's still the same. Whatever the problem is, if I ever format my PC or uninstall and reinstall Emby and it still gives me the same issue, I'll let you know. But for now, the only thing I can see clearly is that videos with external subtitles, whether .srt or .ass files, cause problems. Thanks to everyone for your help.

Thanx! Will look inte that:)

This plugin depends that emby hold intromarkers on the series. If emby doesn't have intros for it, the plugin skips it. But that is certainly fixable. ChapterAPI lets you create IntroStart and IntroEnd markers, which is exactly what my plugin looks for. This way you could even make them for movies, just set IntroStart/IntroEnd markers with ChapterAPI. For Movies you could use that trick to get favorite scenes as Backdrops.

Great! I use Powershell scripts available at the moment but a plugin would off course be much better. Discovered one thing now, when running it on a new folder (Documentary series) that it skippes ceratain series folders. I have deleted all backdrop and trailer folders in each series folders and ran it again, but it skippes same series again, any tips for troubleshooting on my end? Im guessing folder structure isnt the issue since its all the same structure and some gets added properly Thanx!

That is something I am already experimenting with. The problem, a move has no markers for intros. Only maybe chapters. It would be either something like, generate a random 110sec clip or scan for Chapters and for scenes with high average bitrates, which suggests heavy action scenes.
