You can also setup only emby media server content to show and nothing else will show .. ONLY emby movies & series

Is an addon made for this front end also it's 100% LEGAL I will help by posting here what you need if need be. I can make any addon you need or you can browse addons (100% LEGAL) by checking out https://stremio-addons.net/addons?categories=http+streams

Ive notices that when the credits are marked for TV shows it will show a prompt to skip to the next episode or continue watching when the credits marker is hit. This is currently not the case for Movies, for example if you are watching a collection or playlist of movies and it hits a credits marker there is no prompt to skip the credits and go to the next movie you have to skip through the credits to get to the next item in the playlist. I would like to see a prompt similar to how TV shows are, allowing the option to skip over the marked credits for movies and go to the next movie or item in the playlist. Also it would be nice to have a skip recap marker as this would be useful for plugins like the IntroDB. Thanks

Self made ? Yes, but made in this app not Emby ?

Spotless track record...hey, records are made to be broken

It would be nice. But why spoil embys spotless track record of NOT releasing it after the next stable over the last 5 years. Im pretty certain I'll be dead before they release it! Krs Mark

Self made my boy. You can add many as you want and even add pics logos fanart whatever you want you can add HULU add whatever is in your emby brother.

You can set it up to use just a remote for firestick if you want Most people dont even know this stuff exists can add a movie to emby from your firestick remote, but whatever. 2026-07-26 22-19-59.mp4

I rebuilt my emby server box today due to some random crashes I was having with it that I do not believe to be Emby related but needed to happen. I reinstalled and then used a backup to reimport my previous config but it's not coming up and seems to be taking forever to do the restoration. Other than Emby telling me that a restore is still in progress I have no idea what's happening. Is there some progress or logs I can look at to figure out what's going on?

After the next stable is out do we actually get to see (the beginnings of) TVNext ?

Those rows you're showing - Apple, HBO etc, are they custom rows you've made in Emby that this app is picking up, or are they something this app is creating itself ?

Yes, I’ve been wanting something like this for a while too. I suppose seeing just (e.g.) MP3 or FLAC is a good minimal approach for many, but all my music is FLAC. I therefore also want to see (e.g.) 16/44 or 24/96, at a glance, without having to open “Stats for Nerds” or leave that visible the whole time. Even then, this doesn’t show bit-depth in the available info. I also similarly want to see more relevant info like this, but don’t need to see “everything” to be able to easily determine if the track is “standard” or “hi-res”. So, rather than just waiting for Emby to implement something, I had a friendly AI conversation and ended up with this (full screen): Here’s the JavaScript code for anyone interested in experimenting with it, for the web player (at your own risk): (function() { async function updateAudioInfo() { try { const sessions = await window.ApiClient.getSessions(); const session = sessions?.find(s => s.NowPlayingItem); if (!session) return; const item = session.NowPlayingItem; const audio = item.MediaStreams?.find(s => s.Type === "Audio"); if (!audio) return; const codec = (audio.Codec || "").toUpperCase(); const bitDepth = audio.BitDepth || ""; const sampleRate = audio.SampleRate ? (audio.SampleRate / 1000).toFixed(1) : ""; const el = document.querySelector('.videoOsd-audioInfo .mediaInfoItem'); if (el) el.textContent = `${codec} • ${bitDepth}-bit • ${sampleRate} kHz`; } catch (e) { console.error("Error:", e); } } const obs = new MutationObserver(updateAudioInfo); obs.observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true }); })(); I have no idea if this is optimum code, but it seems to work ok for me. Alter this line to change the format of the displayed data: if (el) el.textContent = `${codec} • ${bitDepth}-bit • ${sampleRate} kHz`; To show other data will require more extensive changes, of course. Depending upon screen size, aspect ratio, screen view, font-size, etc., some CSS finessing may also be required to adjust any misalignment due to the extra space that the additional info takes up. I found that the text-centering may not align well and the time-remaining may wrap to the next line, but it seems fine, with no tweaking, for a landscape view., on my set-up. While this won't help for all the client apps, perhaps it's still useful to some, as an interim approach, for the web player?

Yeah so I made another small video of what it is like with faster settings and main screen with no audio until you click a movie or show you like as you will see at the end of this small video. 2026-07-26 21-53-25.mp4

I suppose that is possible, and maybe if the devs see this, they will check it out. Either way, one would think that sometime within the last 2+ years, they would have fixed this.

We have been waiting for this for over a decade so don’t hold your breath that we will ever get it. 4 years ago we were teased there is a developer that made it search for nexttv but it looks like it has all been canned unfortunately . I am still waiting for my tv recording virw to be restored back

Yeah, you can disable the auto trailers or you also can have it muted so you see the trailer but can't hear it or set it to play the audio only after you click a movie you wanna watch then after a few seconds it will play a high quality full screen trailer until you back out of it. Loads of features i wish emby already had but whatever..

Looks pretty good. It has way less padding than the official Emby app which has also been a complaint of mine. The autoplay trailers within the card is pretty neat too, not sure that I'd use it though.

Also you can use StreamBridge to connect your emby server to it and it will load your emby library into the front end and use imdb to display trailers and metadata, pretty cool just sayen. Be cooler if emby app had this so people dont need go looking for 3rd party apps.

This a small video I made of how it looks as my front end when connected to emby server. 2026-07-26 20-47-40.mp4

hi team, i spent some time looking into why my emby server sometimes leaves ffmpeg processes pegging 100% of a core post-playback, and i figured out why and how to fix it (it's already fixed upstream). it seems that this occurs when ffmpeg seeks beyond the start of the last cue of the subtitle track. if a video is 1 minute long, but the subtitles end 30 seconds in, and you seek to 31 seconds, this will cause the process to remain, and spin its wheels. in fact, it occurs on any filtered subtitle output that receives zero frames; i reproduced it with a sparse forced track and a seek to a point in the first half of a video. looking at https://mediabrowser.github.io/embytools/ffmpeg-2023_06_25-u1.tar.gz i can see that this is due to the emby patches on top of ffmpeg. in fftools/ffmpeg_filter.c:758 is this comment: if (ist->st->codecpar->codec_type == AVMEDIA_TYPE_SUBTITLE && ist->dec_ctx) { // For subtitles, we need to set the format here. Would we leave the format // at -1, it would delay processing (ifilter_has_all_input_formats()) until // the first subtile frame arrives, which could never happen in the worst case ifilter->format = (uint16_t)ist->dec_ctx->subtitle_type; } so emby presets the format so a subtitle graph configures with zero frames, which breaks the invariant that early return was written against - af1761f7b5 - "init filtergraphs only after we have a frame on each input". this means choose_output() can select this output stream that is already finished as is seen in fftools/ffmpeg.c:3855: static OutputStream *choose_output(void) { for (i = 0; i < nb_output_streams; i++) { OutputStream *ost = output_streams[i]; ... if (!ost->initialized && !ost->inputs_done) return ost->unavailable ? NULL : ost; if (!ost->finished && opts < opts_min) { opts_min = opts; ost_min = ost->unavailable ? NULL : ost; } } return ost_min; } inputs_done is never set for a configured graph, and a subtitle sink with zero frames never sets initialized either. both flags stay 0 permanently so choose_output()'s early return fires forever, resulting in a livelock. emby tries to send "q" to ffmpeg's stdin to gracefully shut it down, but it never acts on it due to the livelock, so the process just spins its wheels forever. the fix is to extend the test for the return: if (!ost->initialized && !ost->inputs_done && !ost->finished) this is probably best done by cherry picking e1d12aaa45 onto the 5.1-emby source you could also harden this in reap_filters() in fftools/ffmpeg.c:1522: } else if (flush && ret == AVERROR_EOF) { if (av_buffersink_get_type(filter) == AVMEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO) do_video_out(of, ost, NULL); else init_output_stream_wrapper(ost, NULL, 1); } that's pretty much the whole story. i see that there are other posts likely about this as well. also, i can't seem to find the p6 version source for ffmpeg, could you please point me towards it?

Hi, I'd like to suggest adding server-side control over some client experience settings across Emby clients, specifically: Play theme songs Play theme videos Enable backdrops These settings are currently controlled individually on each client (Windows, Mobile, Tablet, TV apps, etc.). While this is useful for personal preferences, it creates a challenge for server administrators who want to provide a consistent experience for their users. For example, an administrator may spend time setting up theme songs, theme videos, and custom backdrops to make the library feel more immersive. However, users may never enable these options, may not know they exist, or may accidentally disable them and not know how to restore the experience. Suggested feature: Add a server-side "Client Experience Settings" section where the administrator can manage how these options behave across connected clients. Option 1: Default "on" The server provides preferred settings when a client connects for the first time. Users can still change them locally if they want. Option 2: Enable/Disable control The administrator can allow or disable certain features across clients. This helps users enable features they may not know about. It also allows administrators to disable features if they become a performance concern. Option 3: Reset client settings Allow the administrator to restore client settings back to the server-defined defaults. This would be especially useful for family/friends servers where the administrator manages the entire experience and users are not expected to configure advanced settings themselves. The goal is not to remove user choice, but to give server administrators better control over the intended media experience across all Emby clients. Thanks!

Are you the same guy from efnet the other night talking about releasing something for trailers on here? Looks cool BTW.

joining in this discussion as well since i would be very interested in having this feature made available..

One of the better shows

Yes it is just a front end, only part I like is the trailers and animation it looks very nice. Basically just a 3rd party app that can be used to watch your emby library among other stuff.
