Usenet and binary newsgroups are awesome. I agree. Prone to DMCA takedowns. Spools might have missing pieces. Might not have enough Par2 recovery blocks. Then you REQ and they will come. I remember those days well. But we cannot really delve into details and specifics here. We need to keep on the saner side and while it does exist not make it easier for those who do it to find it easier by reading these forums. Those who want to need to figure it out on their own. We aren't given directions to our buried treasures. No sir. In the 1600s, people became pirates for physical survival, economic profit, and anti-imperial power struggles, often stealing tangible goods like gold, sugar, and spices. Conversely, software piracy today is primarily driven by avoiding the high costs of digital goods, bypassing restrictive licensing, or accessing geo-blocked media without physical risk. We'll brave the squalls and we'll bust your balls. Somalian Pirates, we!

You're trying too hard.

On Emby 4.9.5.0 (Synology) and Trakt plugin v3.8.3.0 I confirm the same error, also for the 100 "shows' that are returned I get the following error "Debug Trakt: No Season match in Watched shows list Episode: 1x5 'Remember It' Series: 'X-Men '97'" Sound like the format that the info is returned for TV shows is no longer recognized by Emby. IT works fine for Movies (the 100 returned) - i get "Debug Trakt: Movie is in Watched list Cube" I also see this in the logs 2026-07-12 21:49:34.151 Info Trakt: Trakt.tv watched Movies count = 100 2026-07-12 21:49:34.151 Info Trakt: Trakt.tv watched Shows count = 100 2026-07-12 21:49:34.151 Info Trakt: Trakt.tv playback Movies count = 0 2026-07-12 21:49:34.151 Info Trakt: Trakt.tv playback Episodes count = 1

So Meta quest 3 and 3s you can connect to emby server and watch 3d movies. I will make a video in the morning how to watch emby movies in 3d.

Hi! Well, i run my Emby server on a Win 11 PC and i got backrops as metadata for my screensaver and it pops up on my clients, in this case an Nvidia Shield and a ZTE 4K Stick. I havent any experience with any kind of Roku device but when looking at the specs i dont see any reason why it wouldnt work. My settings, in Swedish, but im sure you get the picture:) And you also have other third-party screensavers for Android like Gfolio and others that will let music keep playing in the background Cheers mate!

If I can't run all my data through emby legally then I will pirate it.

People pirate because the apps for tv are trash.

@Belenkiyplease update to Emby Server 4.9.5 and let us know how that compares. Thanks.

HI, please try the update to Emby for iOS that went out today and let us know how that compares. Thanks.

Incase you think I'm a bullshitter

I also pay for 7 downloaders each month just so I dont need to watch ads.

This is the error we are getting. Emby is not recognizing my email address as a valid account.

I'm a news group lover we go way way back before when dial=up was our connector.

@AlyEssa?

I would try picking ne, blanking out the email address, saving, and then adding it back. Please see if that helps.

Topic is why? Why would someone ever pirate stuff and add it to an emby server well I pay $300 a month to have all I watch with NO ads. Its life bro i dont want ads when i pay monthly no i want what i want when i want. Its life!

@kicsrules Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hi, this is actually completely unrelated ... but glad to hear things are back to normal. Thanks.

Hi, what is the exact message that you get?

Understood.

I said API key from the companies.

While I should, as a mere user, point out that neither Emby nor its users would ever condone marauding the high seas of piracy, I imagine a one stop shop would be quite popular.

No one said this yet but pirating is actually easier than signing up for a subscription, we need API keys this will be the winner for the company that does this so we can enter an API key into emby and have a one stop shop.

Sad and it's a problem not for me but for them, I can spend time and get anything I want online for free and so can other people. If they sold an api for users to watch content on an emby server then I would have no reason to look through anything to download but 2026 I think the greed got worse. All the big corps need to do is sell api keys for people to enter into an emby server then they have no reason to pay app builders nor do they have the stress of hosting servers for garbage apps that dont work. I pay for a lot of apps I test apps I view and see for myself do they actually work? I form my own opinion I read the reviews I test apps it always ends the same. Apps are non working people are pissed and no one cares at the big corps. If enough people pirate they will feel it and only then will things change.
