All Activity

It's there for collections (in which case this should have been marked as completed), but it's not there for playlists.

Around the same time tonight, two users to the message "Your account has exceeded the maximum streaming limit set by your Emby Server administrator. Please contact them for assistance." Neither had a streaming session going. I rebooted the server and had the users reboot their clients. Is there a way to troubleshoot this? I have a lifetime license.

What do you mean? It is there in my test in 4.10.0.6

@Luke?

Working now. Thanks!

HI there, can you please provide a specific example? How to Report a Problem Thanks !

The one called just "Emby"

Hi, Presently the music Included In section on the individual Artist pages shows both Collections and Playlists. Ideally, I would like them both shown on their own separate rows, but was wondering, as a first step, if there was a simple way to just hide the Playlists using CSS? When looking at the CSS of the div.appearsOnLIstsSection, it seems that an underlying Collection and Playlist have an identical structure, so it doesnt seem possible to differentiate and target just Playlists? Is there anything obvious/easy that I am missing or do I need other method beyond CSS? Thanks!

… I’ve recently been experimenting with this a bit more and figured out a way to get it partially working on a limited basis for the web app in Chrome, for my own use: With custom HTML/CSS added within Emby: Use HTML to tag the required entities in the Overview you want to link to (e.g.) <b>Artist</b> (as per my previous post). Use CSS to color highlight the entities (as per my previous post). With custom JavaScript, run from a browser extension: Find the <b>Artist</b> tags. Use a look-up table to map the Artist names to their Artist ID numbers. Create internal links from the Artist ID numbers. All of the above is relatively straightforward BUT the tricky part is that Emby web client is a Single Page Application using Document Object Module processes (I think this is the correct technical terminology). Therefore ‘back’ navigation can easily break the links, so auto page refreshes are needed to rerun the Javascript and restore the links. It really needs a plugin – but that is way beyond what I can figure out myself! Anyway, even with my limited experimenting the result, so far, is a GAME-CHANGER for me. No longer is Emby constrained by (mostly) tree-like branch structure browsing e.g. Genre>Artist>Album>Song>Back>Back>Back. Now I have a Roon-like user experience for music e.g. Artist>Artist>Artist>Artist… in whatever order reading the Overviews takes me. E.g.: When I find more time, I may extend this from just Artists to Albums and Songs? I don't want to post any code that isn't robust and I also don't want to give any detail tips that may help anyone implement dangerous linking. But perhaps the idea has merit for future good features. For a wider proper implementation by Emby it may mean looking at all the Overviews and matching text strings to IDs across the whole range of options. I guess this would be a large task to implement across all the apps…??? Cheers!

Thanks. As above, found my usual problem - stupidity. In File Explorer I have the right folders to edit this stuff pinned, but I forgot/didn't realise they were actually pointing to older versions of the server...

Yes as I scrolled to show it showing the second 12 items (24). As for logo it could be the logo itself as my example is Emby logo with color change but image is exact same size/resolution. As my resolution is below 2200px it uses the second number.

No worries, if you need any help with it just let me know.

So you're saying the top one with the arrows still works. Typical, I have - also with the arrows and nothing. And your logo works and mine doesn't...thats just rude. At some point I guess I'll (hopefully) find I'm doing something obviously wrong...

For you - it is a bug. For the others - it ain't, as it is by design (and has always been so). As already said:

Websockets Support im Proxy Manager aktiviert?

Have you tried with music videos? What happens? As i mentioned above I don't have any music or music video at all in Emby, so I can't try myself. And I have only built the plugin with regards for movies and tv-shows, but i'm curious how it handles the rest.

That thankfully still does not make this not a bug. Either the header there needs to say that the link will take you to suggestions instead of the library. or it needs to take you to where it says it will take you (as per the setting). Fixing this does not prevent anyone who likes the suggestion display from using this existing setting to maintain the behaviour. (from what I understand, it defaults to this anyways)

It doesn't do anything for security, but from a purely administrative point of view there's a perfectly fine case for wanting the option to ban browsers. It goes like this: Browsers (often) suck, and as an admin I'd rather avoid dealing with the issues they present. And in my experience they seem to have issues with emby at least once in a while. Recently I tried to watch an old video on my server with a modern up-to-date browser, and I got no sound. Then I tried it with the iphone app - worked great. Tried androidtv - works fine. Tried several other videos with the same browser - no problems. The same situation has happened in the past, and I don't feel the need to fix it, because I feel it's irrational to expect any browser to work in all cases. That's why I tell my friends and family to forget using a browser with my server. If it's technically infeasible to build a switch to ban browsers, then oh well, but it would be nice to have. And for anyone wondering, blocking URI paths that do not contain "/emby" works perfectly well to effectively ban browser access for anyone casually checking to see if it will connect. It won't stop your mom from hacking her way in, but she's probably not going to do that.

Whose server are you trying to connect to?

Thanks very much Apotropaic, you are right and now that I re-read the M3U content I can see that the editor seems to be putting the channel name as the EPG-ID. I’ll do both - I’ll check the settings within the editor - but also interested in Dispatcharr so will do some reading thank you again, much appreciated

Hello, I am looking to switch off Plex and move over to Emby. I installed Emby, and added my collection. My collection already has existing .nfo files and all the posters, actors, banners, actors, etc as used by Kodi. With the help of ChatGPT, I configured the settings when first creating my libraries to take advantage of what I already have stored locally. I also configured it to cache everything. But when I browse any library or homepage, all the posters are blurry, low resolution. The quality is much lower than Kodi or Plex’s UI… for what should be the same image files. Is there a way to improve this so it doesn’t look like I am on a 20 year old 720p plasma tv….? I’m hoping ChatGPT made a mistake guiding me… there are a lot of settings when creating libraries. On my iPad and on the Web UI, all images look perfect. Is this a limit of the Samsung Emby app? Are there plans to improve this? I really want to switch over. Thanks.

Sort of depending on scroll direction Changed Logo and innerWidth?16:12 to innerWidth?32:24 Auto/Horizontal scroll honors your set value, while Vertical appears to be limited to 16 in my quick test so there must be another value somewhere

With the newer betas, anyone know if changing the logos in 'themes' and changing the number of items in rows in emby-itemscontainer still works ? I've changed them and restarted Emby and restarted the PC and hopefully cleared cache, but no change.

No worries, it's annoying when things don't work out how you plan! I thought that was your editor but wanted to check. As for the M3U items, for some reason your editor is transposing the EPG-ID into the channel name, I imagine there must be some option or setting within your editor as I don't understand why anyone would want that by default. Here is mine for comparison.. #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="101" tvg-name="BBC 1 4K" tvg-logo="http://192.168.x.x:9191/api/channels/logos/431614/cache/" tvg-chno="101" group-title="General",BBC 1 4K I've tried a number of different editors and I've given up on them, they all have some sort of limitation for what I want. If you have the skills and machine resources to run docker images, then I would recommend 'Dispatcharr'. It's free, will be hosted locally, and will let you customise and automate your M3U setup. Dispatcharr is meant to be used a proxy for emby but you don't have to run it that way but there some benefits. The Dispatcharr model is you have to manually create Channels out of the streams you have. So a one time activity is to create a BBC One channel and add a stream to it. The best bit is you can add multiple BBC One streams to the same channel and they will operate as a automatic backup (only if you use Dispatcharr as a proxy). This way you can name the channels exactly how you want, set icons for them, and even link an EPG to the channels. You then point emby to your dispatcharr instance for the M3U and EPG. But you can be flexible and use the Emby EPG if you wanted or mix and match.

Are you sure it hasn't been detected, but as an alternate version of something else? Paul
