What format is your music file? Is it transcoding, etc?

I can't seem to duplicate the problem and followed your steps exactly on my Shield.

I updated my production server and I am loving this plugin. Sweet. A potential feature Best Movies/Best Series/Most Popular based on the if more than a specific number of users have watched it. Here I am not speaking of play count because if a user is interrupted many times while watching a movie, it may have a high play count because of the stop/start. Also, if a movie is draining, it could be watched over multiple sessions, again giving a high play count. What I a looking for is the movies that more than x users have watched. Something like User Watch Count. What are your thoughts? Is it feasible?

@Luke anything that holding you up pushing the update to the catalog?

@GrimReaper Thanks for the script... I played around with it for a bit. With a simple 1 Collection, 1 Playlist it works perfectly, but with more Collections there seems to be SPA/DOM timing issues??? Here are some results: C P works well C C C C P P works, though the spacing between all cards, in the new Playlists row only, is much wider than normal C C C C C C C C P P P P P P only the first P appears in the new Playlists row, the rest remain in the new Collections row, with a one card 'missing' gap from C to P (picure below) C C C C C C C C C C C C C C C C P P P P P P P P everything remains in the new Collections row I'm not asking/wanting you to troubleshoot it for me (unless you want to for yourself). Just reporting on what I found and it was worth trying. I also have some additional complications when using this with my unrelated custom CSS that massively rearranges 'everything'. Anyway, this has at least got me started and I now have a couple of new ideas to try next: Hide the 8 playlists, that are annoying me right now, with CSS by targeting their specific IDs (short-term, not scalable) Use API to target Collections and Playlists for separating them (long-term, hopefully a viable solution) Thanks again for your help!

Hi, I updated to the latest version. But as a matter of fact there are more problems now. A. The player issue is the same. However, it does shows up now, but ONLY ONCE on the first track I want to play. B. After that, when I choose another track, the player doesn't show up anymore. C. Then I still must go to home first, click the top bar, THEN the player opens again but everything hangs immediately for 15-20 seconds. In the meantime, while hanging the music keeps playing, but zero control. When the hanging is over, I get the player and I can stop the music. D. But then again clicking a track, it plays it, but again without player. I checked and the version is indeed 3.5.30. Worse than the previous older version 3.4.91.

Personally I find swearing to myself helps, otherwise maybe/possibly clear browser cache ?

when you have the same movie in two different library folder paths - like the A: Drive for one and another drive path for the other, then they should appear as a multi-version item with a drop down to choose the version and also you have the option to split the two items In my test where I have the same movies folder on a C Drive path and also an H Drive path, the movie shows as having two versions When you scroll down to see the media info details, you will have the two paths shown and also the option to split And if you do the split, you will have two instances of the movie one relating in my case to Drive C and the other to Drive H

So, I've cut and pasted all the contents of the CSS file into the section of the General tab, restarted the server and refreshed the page, but still nothing is showing. Am I missing a step?

Thanks! One qusetion: where can I adjust the cast's radius of the oval. I like it to be a bit more rectangle instead of it being an oval.

The latest version 3.5.30 is also available on GitHub if you want to sideload. https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/tree/master/android

3.4.91 is a pretty old version, 3.5.28 is available in the play store. You don't have to sideload the app onto a shield but when you're searching you may have to search "emb".

Hello, trying to get a certificate now for the past three days. My Caddyfile is like so mysubdomain.dedyn.io { reverse_proxy http://localip:port tls { dns desec { token "mytoken" } } } I get the add on for dedyn and make the new caddy file in xcaddy. I run caddy by caddy start. It's happy until it gets to 2026/03/22 16:02:31.017 ←[31mERROR←[0m tls.obtain unable to unlock {"identifier": "mysubdomain.dedyn.io", "lock_key": "issue_cert_mysubdomain.dedyn.io", "error": "remove C:\\Users\\myusername\\AppData\\Roaming\\Caddy\\locks\\issue_cert_mysubdomain.dedyn.io.lock: The system cannot find the file specified."} 2026/03/22 16:02:31.017 ←[31mERROR←[0m tls job failed {"error": "mysubdomain.dedyn.io: obtaining certificate: context canceled"} 2026/03/22 16:02:31.017 ←[34mINFO←[0m shutdown complete {"signal": "SIGINT", "exit_code": 0} Emby is set up to public ports are 80, 443. I do have secure connections are handled by proxy. What is the issue? Is there a better DDNS to use (that's free)? That's more easy to make a certificate? Thanks

Hello there, it would be a great idea to add that feature in order to let us choose the best display font according to the TV set resolution. Actually, the font chosen isn't the best for screen display.

App & Device Details: Server device: QNAP NAS TS-431KX, v4.5.4.2374 Emby Server App: v4.9.3.0 Client device: NVIDIA Shield Pro Emby Client App: Emby for Android (phone version sideloaded, NOT Android TV app) - Version: 3.4.91 Network: Local Gigabit LAN (no VPN/remote) Steps to Reproduce: Launch Emby Android app on Shield. Navigate to Music library > Select an album or artist > Play a specific track from the list. Audio starts playing (I hear the track), but there is NO now-playing screen/player, nor a play bar. No controls are visible. Must go to Home > Dashboard > Click top now-playing bar to access pause/stop/lyrics. Expected Behavior: Player UI opens immediately on track select with play/pause/next/lyrics controls (as in phone mode) OR a play bar must appear to control the track being played. Tried Fixes: Cleared app cache/storage, force stopped, Shield reboot. Playback settings: Audio renderer=Device default, disabled passthrough/background audio. Display theme=Day. Issue persists across tracks/playlists. I sideload the phone APK on the NVidia Shield Pro for lyrics support (TV app lacks it), but music player hides post-select. Any setting or APK fix? Thanks!

@soderlundis combining multiple source types still in the works? Can't update to the latest version as yet; I'm waiting for the bugs in .6 to be dealt with before I update my server.

Interresting, this is still going on. I reported this 2 years ago. I had the same issue on 2xLGs which transcoded from DTS to AC3.

Is Windows Emby app not able to download movies or series for offline viewing?

That worked. Thanks.

@Neminemhas been so kind as to help replicate the problem @spk2010has. If no misunderstanding has happened, it look like Embys skip system might have problems sometimes when fast forwarding to many times to fast or resuming a video mid video. It's unrelated to this plugin and does not change the metadata/time stamps of the video and going back and restarting the video usually fixes it. Refreshing metadata, doing rescans and other things can and will in most cases remove the time stamps though, the auto-restore function is made to fix that and is in beta atm.

Back to announce where Watch Party is going from this day onward. I'm in the midst of a major rework of Watch Party's core architecture. Here's what's changing and why. What's happening with 2.0 The entire backend is being restructured from the ground up. Flask is being replaced with FastAPI, bringing a fully documented REST API with interactive docs at /docs. The frontend is moving to Vue.js with Vite, making it a proper single-page application. This means: Full API documentation -- every endpoint documented with request/response schemas. Want to build your own frontend or integrate with other tools? The API spec is right there. Admin panel -- manage all runtime settings from the browser. No more editing config files and restarting the container for every change. Cleaner config -- .env is trimmed down to just boot essentials (bind, port, Emby connection). Everything else is managed through the admin panel and saved to config.json. Participant list and playback actions in chat -- see who's in the party and who paused/seeked. Breaking changes As of 2.0, all 1.x releases will no longer be supported. The configuration scheme changes drastically -- the old .env with 20+ settings is replaced by a minimal .env plus a config.json managed by the admin panel. There is no migration path; 2.0 is a fresh start. Current status 1.6.0 "Synced Popcorn" is the current stable release and will remain available. 2.0 "Midnight Premiere" is in active development on the 2.0-Rework branch. No release date yet -- it ships when it's ready.

Just reaching back out. Anyone have a suggestion on why the software encoders aren't there?

Hi! I'm doing now a thorough testing on this. I believe a standard download can not be finished because FireTV turns off before it finishes. I mainly wish to use this to overcome limitations of slow and remote connections during my travels: 1.) Try playing my favourite episode via stream 2.) If it is laggy, let's download my favorite next episode for tomorrow while I'm [sleeping|out in city|beach]. But unnfortunately this has at least 2 blocking issues: 1. Download's status is not visible on Emby server (only very limited way: Transferring) 2. In case FireTV decides to stop Emby, download aborts. BUT when Emby restarts it can not continue the download, but it will rather restart it from zero. Soon I will have logs too. But by any chance is it a known limitation on FireTV that Emby can not continue its downloads?

Nope, no live TV available. is there a setting, alert or something I can enable for when a user or the server is at max limit? Even though I don't think that was the issue here.

However, the email you sent to billing support cannot be replied to. Says it doesn't exist. Please see: My Emby Key Says it is Invalid or Missing
