New version out (v2.3.4) at yocksers/EmbyCredits Github. Added: Plugin now checks when a video has changed and sees if the time stamps are still there and if not restore them if they are present in the backup files. This feature can be turned on and off. This has been made to fix the problem of Emby sometimes deleting time stamps. Added a Chapter edit function, this can be found in the Chaper Edit tab. This was heavily inspired by Teams B Chapter API so a special thanks to him! Added an automatic skip intro blocker. When activated for a series it will stop intros from being automatically skipped if configured in Emby. This is for is people want to automatically skip some intros but not others. Changed: Backup system has been changed to save files per TV show instead of one big backup file. This was done for user friendliness but also to make the auto restore system work better. Fixed: Minor bug fixes that should not be noticeable to users. Special thanks as always to @Neminemfor help with the plugin. @spk2010@DarWunI finished and added the "fix" to Emby deleting the time stamps. Hopefully this will fix all the problems with Emby doing that until the devs look into the problem.

Automating the scanning and attempts to breach reduce the level of effort to nothing. There's no inherent security in port values and trying to obfuscate the port doesn't add security. Once the server responds to a request then the application will be known immediately. You'd be better off adding Emby to the background noise by using a well known port (443) than trying to isolate it to a range that may confuse users, if you have any. If someone wants to secure their server then proven methods are better than obscurity. TLS is the most basic and facilitates others. A reverse proxy has become a must have. Enable SNI (many do by default) so that IP based requests are rejected. Enable IP geo-blocking. You can continue up the chain with IDS/IPS and more complex and robust measures. It all depends on the level of effort you want to invest and of course knowledge. A reverse proxy with SNI may be a good stopping point for most.

Sadly, the Default security configuration for Emby it is imo extremly lacking - it simply does not change when people tick the 'Allow remote Connections to this Emby Server'. Below are just some examples of what COULD be done when the above option is selected : Remote Access is automatically removed for any Admins - you can overwrite this, but it should default to no. This renders any system API useless, as the Admin account has no remote access. If Admin is your only account, then you get asked if you would like to clone it (+ all it's play history etc) and this new non admin account has the remote access. Enforce a decent password for any Admin Account & any account that has remote access. It doesn't need to stupid entropy - nobody is going to be personally brute forcing your emby build (good brute force protection is built into emby) - but it needs to be enough to keep out bots and previously breached passwords. Set 'Hide this user' when remote Set 'Hide this user on devices they've never signed into'

Hola Hace 2 años que uso el servidor Emby Y he querido dar acceso a un par de amigos nuevos Ellos tienen TVs Samsung de distintos años y modelos 2024 y 205 Ya no encuentran la aplicación de Emby en su tienda de aplicaciónes Antes si aparecía en cualquier modelo de TV samsung Que sucedió??

443 is a good port to use if you need to get around an ISP that may be filtering your internet service. Or if you want to access your Emby server from WiFi cafe’s or work locations who again will be filtering ports, they can’t really stop anyone from accessing 80, 443… In principle it sounds ok to use but in practise anyone scanning you will find it as 80,443 are common ports they scan for. They’ll have received headers and it will arouse more interest. SSL/TLS can be run on any port, you don’t have to use 443, you can use for example 55,555 if you wanted. I would recommend leaving your Emby server as default as possible, so leave https running on 8920. But use your router to do the port mapping of 55,555 to 8920. Most modern routers should support this functionality. If you wanted to really up your security you could setup a VPN service at home, make all your remote clients VPN in before connecting to Emby. But of course now you have a VPN service to maintain and secure

My TV is quite old, but it can play 4K 30fps videos. My TV box (Google TV) supports up to 4K 60fps. When I play 4K 60fps videos, my TV experiences lagging visuals, but the audio runs smoothly. I have no choice but to transcode to a very low bitrate to watch them. In fact, a compromise could be made by choosing high quality and low frame rate to achieve the best experience. This should not be difficult to implement in transcoding, and I hope this feature can be added.

Hmm - I added this to my own version about 6 months ago to get a consistent (with Emby) MKV General|Movie Name for both TV Episodes and Movies - the version I uploaded above now contains this. (v1.0.2.1) I agree this should be a toggle/option - so I'll add this and release a new version over the weekend. Default will be off. FYI For Movies - it sets the MKV General|Movie Name to : Emby Movie Name + (Production Year) - ie Alien (1979) For Episodes - it sets the MKV General|Movie Name to : Show/Series Name + (Original Production Year) + Season# + Episode# + Episode Name - ie Young Sherlock (2026) - s1e8 - The Case of Beatrice Holmes

@LukeJe voudrais que si je fais "Actualiser les métadonnées" en "remplaçant les images", il se passent la même chose concernant les images que lorsque je fais "Identifier". C'est beaucoup plus facile pour le faire sur tous les films par exemple.

I was testing this on my end and found a strange error, where it updates the General Title field to say the "Folder name - se - title", where before it did not touch this field and only updated the Video Track and Audio Track title fields, in my setup. Was this intended? I tried updating the MediaInfo and even used a current version of mkpropedit (vs the v70 i have been using), but it still changes that Title field. I swapped back for now and after correcting that field, it is not updating it after setting it for reprocessing.

I recently have come across the following situation: I wanted to listen to dance music, but instead had a lot of hip hop music in my play queue as well. It seems that a folder with audio files or an album gets matched to all the genres that the individual files in this folder / album are tagged with. E.g.: Imagine having a compilation with music by various artists. Let's say it contains dance, pop and hip hop titles. If I now filter my library by genre and select 'dance', currently it seems that the whole album / compilation / folder is added to the play queue, which then consists of pop and hip hop music as well. I think it'd be beneficial to filter the genres per file / tag, and not the whole album or folder containing a file.

Buongiorno, sono Giampaolo licenza premiere lifetime da circa un paio di anni, poco tempo fa, avevo problemi di visualizzazione movie da remoto lato client sia con Apple TV sia con firestick , i filmati continuavano a bloccarsi durante la riproduzione. Ho il server su un qnap, non ho mai modificato nessuna impostazione perchè ha sempre funzionato quindi ho provato varie soluzioni, dal riavvio dell'una e dell'altra, al riavvio dei router ecc. senza risolvere. Ho quindi provato a disinstallare e installare nuovamente le relative app senza che cambi nulla e quindi ho riportato a reset di fabbrica i dispositivi. Ho quindi aggiornato anche il server all'ultima versione (prima avevo una versione beta) A questo punto ricreando il lato client non riesce più a trovare il server da remoto, nonostante non abbia toccato nessuna impostazione e abbia ancora tutte le porte TCP e UDP nattate. Chiedo di entrare con il pin code che viene correttamente accettato lato server, ma poi non mi fa entrare chiedendo di selezionare un server; metto l'indirizzo manualmente e mi dice che il server potrebbe non essere in funzione. Ho provato anche a sovrascrivere l'attuale firmware e a questo punto non so più che pesci pigliare, visto che lo ribadisco, non ho mai modificato le impostazioni. L'ultima spiaggia è disistallare il server sul qnap e poi inizializzare da zero il tutto. Allego uno screenshot del mio pannello che evidenzia l'esatta correttezza dell'esecuzione del server. Grazie a chi mi saprà rispondere.

Luke i have reported this time and time again, I have previously sent logs and photos, not sure what else I can send. Please look at the history, 3 months ago you said "we will look at this" and still not fixed

Alright thank you very much! I believe this should generally be classified as Bug and possibly be accounted for in automated tests (if possible of course) since this was not a thing for like the first year or more of me using Emby, then all of a sudden became a thing after an update, then disappeared again, and now is happening again. I believe it should be consistent and I think most users would expect the display of their Device to turn off at some point after playback stops entirely, especially on a mobile device where it'll drain the battery if it doesn't happen. You most likely did take some sort of action, the only reason why I'm trying to force this topic is because I really really love Emby and I'm basically using it on a daily basis and I have my battery drained constantly because of this little issue. So sorry for applying additional pressure or whatever, I just really like the product

Also having this same issue, any word on a fix yet?

Still doesn't work. No VPN, nothing unusual with my setup. Emby ports are open on my router and external access works. Trakt used to work, but it is throwing the cloudflare error every time I try to get a new PIN. This is on Synology NAS x64, latest stable release of Emby. Trakt support says; "My hunch is that the plug in is trying to refresh a token without giving the proper refresh token to the server."

Bump

It's called Image Capture in your server version. Enable it and refresh metadata on an episode (or multiples).

@Luke The "salute" emoji-thingy was my way of saying thank you for clearing that up

I can confirm that clicking the mouse on the horizontal scroll arrows does work when connected to the target PC using a RDP session. When clicking on the scroll arrows locally on the target PC does not work. The arrow does grow in size when the mouse is hovering the arrow but does not respond to mouse clicks. Windows 10 PC (RDP) -> Windows 11 PC (running ET 3.0.20), arrows work with mouse clicks Local Windows 10 or 11 PC (running ET 3.0.20), arrows do not respond to mouse clicks (no scroll) Using latest 4.9.3.21

Hi, can you give it another try? Are you using a vpn?

OK let's look at a specific example of that next episode: How to Report a Problem Thanks.

What do you mean by cover png attachment?

When this happens for me, I just reboot the machine.

here's my settings, don't see a "screen grabber" choice but thanks for jumping in I still don't understand how having a cover png attachment on my mkv's plays in, is it ever even used for anything?
