Description: Emby Server 4.10 introduced Dynamic Media home-screen sections, including support for displaying Live TV Program items. This is useful, but the query saved in a ContentSection supports only a small subset of Emby’s normal item-query capabilities. The current saved ItemsQuery supports fields such as: - Genre IDs - Tag IDs - Studio IDs - Collection types - Favorite state - Played state - Resumable state The regular /LiveTv/Programs and item-query APIs support substantially richer filtering, including IsSports, start/end dates, genres, tags, and other program attributes. Those filters cannot currently be persisted as part of a home-screen section. ### Use case A plugin or administrator should be able to create an “Upcoming Sports” home-screen section that displays native Live TV Program objects matching rules such as: Program is classified as sports AND program has not ended AND program starts within the next 14 days AND ( genre is Baseball OR title/description contains "Dallas Cowboys" ) AND title/description does not contain an excluded team Because the section contains native Program objects, selecting a card should continue to open Emby’s standard Live TV program modal with: - Play - Record - Record Series - Other Showings - Channel and airing information - Native Live TV artwork and metadata ### Requested capabilities Please expand MediaBrowser.Model.Entities.ItemsQuery, as used by ContentSection.Query, to support more of the existing BaseItemsRequest and Live TV query fields. The most important fields are: IsSports IsNews IsSeries IsLive IsRepeat MinStartDate MaxStartDate MinEndDate MaxEndDate Genres ExcludeGenres Tags ExcludeTags SearchTerm IncludeItemTypes ExcludeItemTypes Relative dates would be particularly valuable because fixed timestamps become stale in persisted home sections. Possible representations could include: MinEndDateRelativeToNow: 0 MaxStartDateRelativeToNow: 14 days or: { "MinEndDateExpression": "now", "MaxStartDateExpression": "now+14d" } Keyword filtering would ideally support: - Multiple terms - Match against name, episode title, original title, and overview - Any/OR matching - All/AND matching - Excluded terms For more advanced use cases, query groups would allow combinations such as: { "All": [ { "IsSports": true }, { "MinEndDateExpression": "now" }, { "Any": [ { "GenreIds": ["baseballGenreId"] }, { "SearchTerms": ["Dallas Cowboys"] } ] }, { "Not": { "SearchTerms": ["Excluded Team"] } } ] } ### API behavior The expanded fields should: 1. Be accepted by POST /Users/{UserId}/HomeSections. 2. Be preserved when reading the section through GET /Users/{UserId}/HomeSections. 3. Be applied when clients load the home section. 4. Work with ItemTypes: ["Program"]. 5. Continue returning the original native Live TV Program DTOs. 6. Behave consistently across Emby Web, mobile, and TV clients. ### Acceptance criteria A client or plugin can save a home section that: - Contains native Program items. - Includes only sports programs. - Excludes programs that have already ended. - Limits results to a configurable rolling number of days. - Selects programs using sport genres or team-name keywords. - Excludes configured keywords. - Sorts results by program start time. - Opens the standard Live TV program modal when an item is selected. ### Benefit beyond sports This would also enable native home sections for: - Upcoming news broadcasts - Children’s programming - Premieres - Specific channels or leagues - Favorite actors or topics - Unrecorded upcoming episodes - Custom Live TV discovery rows It would expose filtering capabilities that largely already exist in Emby’s query APIs through the new Dynamic Media home-section feature.

I sold 2 hard drives already and im regretting selling those 2 now i looked on scamazon there like $1000 each just mental like jesus. Im not selling anymore of my drives even though im not using them still NOPE not selling nothing else.

No it won't bro, my upload speed is trash we have no fiber here in the woods. I will just set them up to download what they want to watch on there own computers and be done with it. If they want to use my emby they prob should just buy a fukn hard drive off scamazon. Sure i'm not the only one on this forum with this BS issue and sure as hell won't be the last.

I can't keep paying more and more and more and more i'm not loaded rich what's wrong with these greedy people jesus.

I thought trakt had switched to Tmdb?

They cancel my cable card and want me to now rent a box plus pay for cable jesus these people. I pay $12 a month and get all my locals and all the channels I had before plus thousands more. Greed will sink ships, I would of kept paying but when they killed my card I went to iptv screw them.

HI, it can help if the quality setting is reduced appropriately to lower the bitrate.

hi, as a test, if you remove the rating restriction, does that resolve it?

Have you compared your nginx setup to this:

What about OTA?

Cancel the cable card on me and now instead of paying $170 a month I pay $12 and get all the same channels plus way more. Make that make sense

where are you looking? what do you see?

@seanbuff@Luke@ebr Hello, this news is such a pleasant surprise! Thank you so much! However, could you please bring this feature to the Emby Universal App? After all, there are far more users of the Emby Universal App than there are of Emby for Android TV. I also hope this feature will be added to Emby Web.

TVheadend is toast, STB-proxy is toast, loads of servers are toast, HDhomerun is soon to be toast now that cable cards are dead

@chuwzthis option is now available in the latest beta version of the Android TV app.

Yes it does. This one in particular is only 3 episodes in total. This is what I shared in the trakt picture a few posts back, and all 3 are marked watched (thats the solid checkmark at the bottom). quick edit, you wrote 0x03, just to be sure, its episode 3 of season 1. This is not a series with its own specials, so this is S01E01 S01E02 S01E03. thats the total of 3 episodes for this V "The Final Battle" Edit again!!! So the files arranged on my server have the Final Battle under the Specials folder for the V (1984), the main show, with its own parent Season. I think this means Trakt calls it "its own show". The TMDB organization I have matches: https://thetvdb.com/series/v Maybe I should pick a different show, unless this helps demystify why its missing it. I do have the tvdb ID on all the shows, but the logs look like they match by name only?

Hallo! Ich habe für meinen Sohn einen eigenen Emby-Account erstellt. Dieser Account hat nur Zugriff auf die Hörspiel-Bibliothek und nur Einträge mit FSK-6 sollten ihm angezeigt werden. Nun habe ich das Problem, dass entsprechende Hörbücher zwar unter "Neueste Hörbücher" für ihn angezeigt werden und dort auswählbar und abspielbar sind. Die Sektion "Meine Medien/Hörbücher" bleibt aber leer. Dort wird gar nicht angezeigt. Woran könnte das liegen? Edit: Emby Server auf Synology. Version 4.9.5.0-724090500

Hi, I use AI write some code. I used Tampermonkey to modify the Emby web version and separated “Cast” and “Crew” Screenbits 2026-07-18_123153.mp4 This is the script, It’s very rudimentary, unstable, and not suitable for TV shows. (To use it, copy and paste it into Tampermonkey. If the script doesn't work, refresh the page.) Emby separate-2.0.txt I also used AI to write some code to build an Android Xposed plugin (for information on how to use Xposed plugins, please Google it yourself; this plugin can be used on non-rooted devices via LSPatch). Screenbits 2026-07-19_071423.mp4 This is .apk app-debug.apk So as you can see, implementing this feature is very simple. Are you really not going to consider this feature? I really hope Emby can implement it! @Luke@ebr (You could make this an optional feature to accommodate those who don’t want to make changes.) Could you please respond? I’d like to know your official stance—whether this is a possibility in the future or if you’re unwilling to do so. I hope we can discuss this.

Or take my computer to a family members house that has 1gig upload speed and share it out that way, where I live we have no upload speed.

Any idea if this works/displays fine with the customisable rows Emby introduced recently to the home screen ? Ditto for the Emby spotlight ?

My family always have problems using my emby because my upload speed is real real bad it's like 7 mb/s it does work good for them if they are the only remote connection but if 2 or more people are on it then it acts up. What i'm thinking is add emby player on there computer so they can download a movie or a show and connect a laptop or even there phone can download then restream it to there tv. Then they can just delete it after they watch it. Only other option would be install my server on there computers with the emby app so then would be apple to use there smart tv to connect to there computer and I could just limit it to 1 connection. If they have even a 1TB drive on there computer it would be enough for them to watch without buffering and delete when they are done. Transcoding does nothing to help as my upload speed is bad unless there is a better idea??

Thanks for the clue. I'm not using Cloudflare or any CDN. The path is: Internet → Grandstream GWN7003 port forwarding → Nginx Proxy Manager → Emby. NPM is using a standard proxy host with: Forward scheme: HTTP Forward host: 192.168.20.10 Forward port: 8096 WebSockets: Enabled Force SSL: Enabled HTTP/2: Enabled No custom locations No advanced configuration Is there a particular request or Nginx directive you'd like me to inspect to determine where the POST is being converted to a GET?

Still works perfectly that's all that I care about
