App & Device Details: Server device: QNAP NAS TS-431KX, v4.5.4.2374 Emby Server App: v4.9.3.0 Client device: NVIDIA Shield Pro Emby Client App: Emby for Android (phone version sideloaded, NOT Android TV app) - Version: 3.4.91 Network: Local Gigabit LAN (no VPN/remote) Steps to Reproduce: Launch Emby Android app on Shield. Navigate to Music library > Select an album or artist > Play a specific track from the list. Audio starts playing (I hear the track), but there is NO now-playing screen/player, nor a play bar. No controls are visible. Must go to Home > Dashboard > Click top now-playing bar to access pause/stop/lyrics. Expected Behavior: Player UI opens immediately on track select with play/pause/next/lyrics controls (as in phone mode). Tried Fixes: Cleared app cache/storage, force stopped, Shield reboot. Playback settings: Audio renderer=Device default, disabled passthrough/background audio. Display theme=Day. Issue persists across tracks/playlists. I sideload the phone APK on the NVidia Shield Pro for lyrics support (TV app lacks it), but music player hides post-select. Any setting or APK fix? Thanks!

@soderlundis combining multiple source types still in the works? Can't update to the latest version as yet; I'm waiting for the bugs in .6 to be dealt with before I update my server.

Interresting, this is still going on. I reported this 2 years ago. I had the same issue on 2xLGs which transcoded from DTS to AC3.

Is Windows Emby app not able to download movies or series for offline viewing?

That worked. Thanks.

@Neminemhas been so kind as to help replicate the problem @spk2010has. If no misunderstanding has happened, it look like Embys skip system might have problems sometimes when fast forwarding to many times to fast or resuming a video mid video. It's unrelated to this plugin and does not change the metadata/time stamps of the video and going back and restarting the video usually fixes it. Refreshing metadata, doing rescans and other things can and will in most cases remove the time stamps though, the auto-restore function is made to fix that and is in beta atm.

Back to announce where Watch Party is going from this day onward. I'm in the midst of a major rework of Watch Party's core architecture. Here's what's changing and why. What's happening with 2.0 The entire backend is being restructured from the ground up. Flask is being replaced with FastAPI, bringing a fully documented REST API with interactive docs at /docs. The frontend is moving to Vue.js with Vite, making it a proper single-page application. This means: Full API documentation -- every endpoint documented with request/response schemas. Want to build your own frontend or integrate with other tools? The API spec is right there. Admin panel -- manage all runtime settings from the browser. No more editing config files and restarting the container for every change. Cleaner config -- .env is trimmed down to just boot essentials (bind, port, Emby connection). Everything else is managed through the admin panel and saved to config.json. Participant list and playback actions in chat -- see who's in the party and who paused/seeked. Breaking changes As of 2.0, all 1.x releases will no longer be supported. The configuration scheme changes drastically -- the old .env with 20+ settings is replaced by a minimal .env plus a config.json managed by the admin panel. There is no migration path; 2.0 is a fresh start. Current status 1.6.0 "Synced Popcorn" is the current stable release and will remain available. 2.0 "Midnight Premiere" is in active development on the 2.0-Rework branch. No release date yet -- it ships when it's ready.

Just reaching back out. Anyone have a suggestion on why the software encoders aren't there?

Hi! I'm doing now a thorough testing on this. I believe a standard download can not be finished because FireTV turns off before it finishes. I mainly wish to use this to overcome limitations of slow and remote connections during my travels: 1.) Try playing my favourite episode via stream 2.) If it is laggy, let's download my favorite next episode for tomorrow while I'm [sleeping|out in city|beach]. But unnfortunately this has at least 2 blocking issues: 1. Download's status is not visible on Emby server (only very limited way: Transferring) 2. In case FireTV decides to stop Emby, download aborts. BUT when Emby restarts it can not continue the download, but it will rather restart it from zero. Soon I will have logs too. But by any chance is it a known limitation on FireTV that Emby can not continue its downloads?

Nope, no live TV available. is there a setting, alert or something I can enable for when a user or the server is at max limit? Even though I don't think that was the issue here.

However, the email you sent to billing support cannot be replied to. Says it doesn't exist. Please see: My Emby Key Says it is Invalid or Missing

Naja. Habe es versucht. Leider ist im englischen Plugin Threat keine Lösung da für mich. Ich habe die EmbyCredits.dll Datei im plugins Ordner kopiert. Rechte eingestellt auf Lesen/Schreiben und den Emby Server neu gestartet. Leider sehe ich keinen Eintrag im Plugin Katalog als installiert. Mein Emby Server läuft auf einer Synology NAS, da habe ich so nicht gefunden. Schade das es kein offizielles Plugin dafür gibt

Amazon is the one behind the curve here. Should be soon now. However, I want to be clear that, at this time, these new devices are quite limited so you will likely see much more transcoding necessary.

Do they watch live TV? Most likely, there were a couple of sessions that had not terminated properly.

Please work with billing support.

I didn't realise you could use an external player with Emby. I presume this could be used to get around the android limitation which causes this issue. Is there anyway to trigger external player on a per-file basis so you can just do it for that file? I tried changing the option in settings, but it means you get a dialogue to select the player on every file you play, which gets old fast, and its only the above list of movies that cause the issue (with no apparent workaround without a huge Shield update), but didnt know if I can long press an option somewhere and select it?

Updates: - Some Variables you can easily control at the top of the CSS (Thanks visproduction!), more to come later. It's a start though. - added in music player mini-osd to reflect the theme.

@GrimReaper Worked it all out! Thanx yet again! N.

Vielen Dank.

And Emby behind the curve again.

On the LG G5 (55") OLED TV, the scrolling in the libraries randomly loses position and doesn't scroll down. This is even on 1.0.47. So for example, if I play some music video (Music Video library), then go back to a list under POP genre, then select another video, then go back and try and scroll down the list of covert art for each artist, the screen just stops scrolling down. This is using TV Mode (horizontal view). I think this bug is also on other models of LG we own as well. I have to go back to the list of GENRES being shown again and go back into the genre and select an artist and music video for scrolling to fix. It's like a pointer is lost? I enter Music Videos as FOLDERS view - then a GENRE is shown in that view for POP, Rock, R&B, Soul etc. and then if you click a genre, the ARTIST artwork is then displayed, then the albums under that Artist.

Both were set to 2 or 4. But neither had a stream going. And they tried again, it did work.

well they got me Is Emby going to be coming out with a version to install on the 4K Select?

Hello same issue i guess. I hope it will solve soon. Apparently lastest beta did not, so i am afraid there is no solution yet
