Thanks for sharing.

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

HI, more options are coming soon on the beta channel, so stay tuned.

Okay, cool thanks for confirming! I think it would still be nice if we had an option to select which of the three Spotlight styles we wanted to use per section.

Hi Mahinepua, Thank you for the clarity and guidance. I got MS store installed and used it to install EMBY. Unfortunately I got the same error so I decided to start digging a bit deeper. It turns out that MS Store really messes with permissions on the installation folders. For some reason the ADMINISTRATOR group only get assigned "READ CONTENTS". I tried to take ownership and change but no luck. I did notice that USERS had READ, EXECUTE etc. So I created a new user installed EMBY again and it works! The lesson then is install EMBY on Windows Server 2025 as a USER not as ADMINISTRATOR.

I've only noticed this issue in Emby for Android TV (tested with versions 3.5.28 and 3.5.55) while playing music. The workaround I mentioned is to open Emby in a web browser on the TV. When using the browser, the TV doesn't turn off after some time.

Hi there! Without fully understanding my question you still manage to answer it completely I wanted to make sure I had the right settings enabled/disabled. Thank you kindly. /N

Yes, we already do that in the Android TV app. I'll look to extend that to Roku. Thanks.

There's a .61? There's no thread for it.

When i back to home, i’ll test it. Thanks

Not sure I've quite understood what you're asking, as it appears you've found both of those settings: if you want NFOs to just be read, on a per-library basis: leave NFO Metadata Reader enabled and NFO Metadata Saver disabled/toggled-off.

yes, add an option to turn this off.... but on another note it's not working properly I guess.... Every library where I use strm files or symlinks almost every folder is the old way without that gray... When I make a library also using strm or symlink with tags to use vantage point the gray folders show... At first I thought maybe the folder dimensions weren't proper... no idea now.

Hi! Exactly where do i find both of these? In server library settings i find read AND write to nfo. And in individual library settings i see the option to save as nfo or not (disable/enable) I would like the setup to be like @GrimReaper mentioned in another post with Emby just reading nfo files and not writing as i use an external scraper that writes nfo:s. Thanx! /N

Thanks for the prompt response. in my config i see this setting which would seem to be what you are refering to. presumably i need to enable it but the description "limits 1 user to 1 channel" would indicate to me that i will loose the multiple connections per client that i am allowed. or am i miss reading it? in my current config my emby tuner is using a Client link to connect to the HLS-Proxy m3u8 that is then mapped to the remote playlist. What i am after is that when the once the max number of streams is reached in hls proxy, instead of killing the oldest stream, the new connection attempt from emby is blocked.

Thank you, Yeah i tried to use the playlist option, but the default appearance is in list form for playlist, which makes sense for music, but not movies. If there was a an option at end of the Dynamic rows, or collections, to where after you get passed 24 the next option is a button or tag that says see more. Click on the see more button, which then takes you to that collection, or another screen that displays all the movies you have for that row, collection. This might be more of a feature request now.

So the same problem is occurring in Emby for Android TV?

Its not supposed to and I don't see why it would "kill" any other app on the device either. Double-click the home button and you'll probably see them all still running.

@Ferwin29New 2.9.0.3 beta in the catalog. Should fix the problem.

You are positive it is also a problem on the phone? Do you have a proxy for remote connections?

Hi. Did you clone or restore this server from another one?

If you removed them while looking at them that is the same. Where the edit or change originated probably wouldn't matter because the apps receive notifications of a library change no matter where that may occur.

See. You guys KNOW this has been a problem for YEARS and bupkiss Same function takes seconds in Plex. I moved to emby from plex for two reasons, live tv support, and offline functionality. But what I’ve learned is that menus basic features are oftentimes shotty, you guys have been basically ignoring live tv for years, and known broken features get ignored for years. Now that I’m doing live tv in apps like tivimate and with the ability to hide everything but my content in Plex, what does emby offer?

Hi all, I’ve been building Okuzukey, a metadata plugin for Emby designed for books, comics, manga, and light novels. What it does: - Local metadata grabber: Supports NFO, Calibre metadata.opf (or an EPUB’s internal OPF if no sidecar exists), and ComicInfo.xml inside .cbz/.cbr. - Covers: Uses local sidecar images if present; otherwise, it extracts them directly from inside .cbz/.cbr/.epub. - Optional Komga integration: Connect to your own Komga server (opt-in, off by default) to fetch metadata and covers. - Performance tweaks: Configurable logging levels and Komga request concurrency. What it doesn’t do: - No embedded metadata/covers for formats like PDF, MOBI, or AZW3 (though sidecar NFO/OPF/covers still work perfectly for them). - No public online sources (Google Books, ComicVine, AniList, etc.) - dealing with rate limits and weak free-text matching wasn’t worth it for now. Emby limitations (not by the plugin): The Book item type in Emby currently has a limited field set. For example, it lacks a proper series name field or People/Authors display in the UI. While the plugin successfully parses writers and artists from your files, Emby simply doesn’t display them for books yet. Here's a video of a metadata refresh with a bit over 2500 random books (epub, cbr, cbz) - everything local on Windows (both the server and the files), which is why the refresh took less than 25 seconds to read it all, including covers. okuzukey.mp4 Tested on: Windows Emby Server 4.10.x Installation: 1. Download the .dll 2. Copy it into your Emby Server's plugin folder 3. Restart your Emby Server Emby.Okuzukey.dll If you give it a try and see anything missing or wrong - a short feedback would be nice. Thanks!
