Hey, cannot use emby DLNA anymore ...my tv (Hisense) shows the server under "sources" but after that, it doesn't load the directory list and throws me back to the sources list of my network devices. :( Log: 2026-09-12 15:31:51.354 Error DLNA: Error processing control request *** Error Report *** Version: 4.10.0.40 Command line: /system/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /config -ffdetect /bin/ffdetect -ffmpeg /bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /bin/ffprobe -restartexitcode 3 Operating system: Linux version 6.12.98-Unraid (root@Develop-72) (gcc (GCC) 15.3.0, GNU ld version 2.46.1-slack151) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Jul 28 08:09:23 PDT 2026 OS/Process: x64/x64 Framework: .NET 8.0.28 Runtime: system/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Data path: /config Application path: /system System.MissingMethodException: System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.ValueTuple`2<System.String,MediaBrowser.Model.Entities.SortOrder>[] MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.TV.Series.GetSeriesSorting(MediaBrowser.Model.Entities.SortOrder)'. at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.SortCriteria.GetSortField(String sortCriteria) at System.Linq.Enumerable.SelectManySingleSelectorIterator`2.ToArray() at System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray[TSource](IEnumerable`1 source) at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.SortCriteria.ToOrderBy() at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.ControlHandler.SetSorting(InternalItemsQuery query, SortCriteria sort, Boolean isPreSorted) at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.ControlHandler.GetUserItems(BaseItem item, Nullable`1 stubType, User user, SortCriteria sort, Nullable`1 startIndex, Nullable`1 limit) at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.ControlHandler.HandleBrowse(IDictionary`2 sparams, User user, String deviceId) at Emby.Dlna.ContentDirectory.ControlHandler.GetResult(ReadOnlySpan`1 methodName, IDictionary`2 methodParams, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Emby.Dlna.Service.BaseControlHandler.ProcessControlRequestInternal(ControlRequest request, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Emby.Dlna.Service.BaseControlHandler.ProcessControlRequest(ControlRequest request, CancellationToken cancellationToken) Source: Emby.Dlna TargetSite: System.ValueTuple`2[System.String,MediaBrowser.Model.Entities.SortOrder][] GetSortField(System.String)

Hello. I installed today the trakt plug-in 3.8.11 in my Emby 4.8.8.0. I generated a new token. I authorized it, so Emby appears correctly in Trakt as a connected application: But, Export Library to Trakt and Import playstates from Trakt.tv scheduled tasks fail... The resulting log is attached. Any clue? Thanks! emby_traktv_log.txt

Hi, I used every major media hosting software out there and Emby is easily the best. I'm also active on Reddit and what I've noticed is a lot of negativity towards Plex and their recent decisions, with many people jumping ship and searching for alternatives. General consensus however is that Jellyfin is the best alternative. Emby is rarely in the conversation. I find that disheartening, considering it superiority. I've tried my best to promote it whenever I can, but I think this is the perfect opportunity for Emby's team to be a bit more aggressive with their promotion.

Yesterday started watching movie recording at the start it was fine not much movement or action and then as further we watched it had ads so skipped through some and then like the picture jumps as it is not processing all the frames example a person was walking but instead of being smooth motion the person is two steps ahead but you didn’t see those two steps as it missed lot of frames in between I paused few times just to see will improve but nothing it was unwatchable then went to android tv no issue no jumps just smooth motion through the whole movie.

Hello all, I have a second residence that has its own LAN and is connected to my main residence's LAN through OpenVPN at the gateway level. That is, no single device on the LANs needs to connect to the VPN individually. Both residences are connected to their respective ISPs through reasonably fast connections (I can watch Prime Video, Pluto TV, etc. without interruption), but when I include the VPN IP address pool to the "LAN networks" list in Emby, some movies that I play on Emby (I guess the ones with better quality) are interrupted all the time and, as a result, are unwatchable. I assume that the network link through both ISPs an the VPN is too slow for the movies to play at their nominal quality. However, they play fine after I remove the VPN IP address pool from the "LAN networks" list, presumably because transcoding is then enabled. My problem is that I would still like Emby to recognize my VPN IP addresses as "trusted" to relax some restrictions, such as the fact that I need to enter the password every time I log in. In other words, I want Emby to recognize my second residence as home, just a "slower" home. But for Emby there is only one kind of "LAN" that covers both security and speed considerations. Is there a way to achieve my goal? Thank you in advance for your help. Eric

The .SVG Images work on a Samsung TV

Hi Luke, thanks for the quick response! When I start up Emby remotely it tries to connect to the server, then boots me back to the "select a server" screen. If I click on the server from the "last used" option I get the "Unable to reach <server>" message. If I try and use Emby Connect it will prompt me to sign in, then just send me back to the select server screen. The server doesn't show any attempted connections.

In most videos there is no pop-up at the end like this image. For playing I select a folder full of video files and select the random button. Sometimes I create playlists but have not noticed this being different with either option.

I will Try on the next Update

Well the behavior before the new Emby Theatre in Windows Store had this. Now arrow up leads to putting the focus on subtitles and the position dot on the seek-bar is not present. Now arrow down leads to info screen about the media playing and the position dot on the seek-bar is not present. The middle ground was before hit play on the remote (standard media remote for windows) to show the HUD / overlay with the seek-bar having focus and position dot present. The seek-bar having the dot present is the main purpose to navigate with right and left arrows optionally.

@ginjaninja Already working — nothing to change Seeing that a season you haven't started yet is complete → already working, no action needed. Poster status (Returning/Ended/etc.) and next air date → already working, no action needed. Turn this on for the other two you asked about Settings → TV Show Status: Turn on "Mark season premieres and finales in the episode name". Pick a display mode — either Always or Hide once watched. Start with Always for testing, since it can't be mistaken for "not working." This tags the episode name itself (e.g. "Season Finale · Worlds Apart"), so it shows on your Continue Watching thumbnails with no image needed. Not built yet — no setting for this Knowing when the season finale will air, before the season is complete → there's no setting for this yet anywhere in the plugin. Nothing to turn on. For the show showing "Complete" instead of "Ended" I created a dummy folder for the same show myself and it correctly showed "Ended" — so this looks specific to your library's copy, most likely a stale cached status rather than a bug in the logic itself. To confirm and fix it: Go to that show's page. Click ⋯ → Refresh Metadata. Choose the option that replaces existing metadata rather than only filling in what's missing (on most Emby versions this is a toggle like "Replace all metadata" in the refresh dialog). Wait for the refresh to finish, then reload the library page in a private/incognito window. If the badge switches to Ended afterward, that confirms it was just outdated cached data and nothing further needed. If anything above doesn't work as expected Let me know, with: Which setting/mode you used Whether you restarted or reloaded the client afterward A screenshot of the card where you expected something and it's missing or wrong

Ok do tell, how it goes

No but just been doing some reading it looks the browser is keeping a file open somewhere preventing the update i will get this sorted later after work then post an update

Is it installed as a service?

Windows 11

Hmm what OS is your server install on?

Ok that's the reason for your collection issues, since that was added in 4.9 if I remember right.

It says I've updated to 4.10.0.40 but the version says 4.8.3.0 And no matter how matter times I restart server to apply changes it Always says that

Thank you for you amazing work! It would be nice to be able to translate "Today" and "Tomorrow"

@rbjtech So you still prefer direct file access, even though you think HTTP would be just as good.

I can't see you full screenshot. What server version are you running?

Just grabbed the newest release and it looks good. A quick test worked great. Everything's playing/starting fine. Cool Thanks again

This is what im seeing through chrome dont have the group by option

Thanks, but way too complicated! I'm running 4.9.3.0 without any problems. I'm running the command pkg add -f https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.9.5.0/emby-server-freebsd13_4.9.5.0_amd64.pkg and then service emby-server start and it doesn't.

It would be really useful if when using Identify it would pre-populate the title and year fields based on either the folder name or the video name. Auto Organise does do this and it helps get new TV series sorted to the correct collection. But if Emby has trouble auto identifying the series then I need to manually perform Identify and I have to manually enter or copy the title and year into the search fields. Auto Organise: Main Emby identify menu option:
