What network type did you use to get Comskipper working on UnRaid? I have it generating .edl files, but Emby won't use them. I started with "Bridged" like I run most containers, but Comskipper.dll caused constant errors when called. Switched to "Host" and Comskipper.dll no longer causes errors, but it can't see the .edl file on the SMB share. (the .edl file does exist and works perfectly if I play the recording with Kodi) "Comskip EDL file [\\192.168.67.3\pvr\Emby\recordings\Recording 2026_03_29_15_00_00.edl] does not exist." I guess I'm going to try a "Custom : br0" network next but I'm pooped and calling it quits for the day before I break all of my clients by changing the IP for the custom network. Hoping for some guidance if anyone has this working on UnRaid.

All of a sudden, I think since a recent update, the web home screen shows all content played or unplayed. Seem ok on the fireTV home screen. I coundn't find a setting for this. What am I missing. I want the Web home screen to only show unplayed content. Thanks for answers.

That is why I suggested you put it behind a configuration switch and turn it off by default

Hi. Improvement exactly how? Is secure access working when you don't use Connect? How did you set your secure access mode in your server?

Not everyone will and they are very clunky to operate.

Hi, there's already an open request for this or something functionally equivalent. Please join in and contribute to the existing discussion at:

It is working now. As I suspected, when I opened the insecure port to WAN, connect picked up my server no problem. I would prefer not to have the extra port exposed. Maybe an improvement to connect is in order?

I don't believe it does - but I can see it would be a sensible idea. Paul

hi？

You don't. If you did not rip these yourself, your only option is to do it one at a time or replace the series with a copy that has them included, which no one here can help you with.

hi there, I have made 2 short recordings off the Emby tv guide. one plays back ok, the other doesn't on my LG OLED65CS6LA. They both playback ok on emby windows app and LG OLED55B7V. I have not touched the file structures meta data etc... I have zipped up both below. Hopefully somebody can unzip and put into there pvr folder to test playback, or look to see if they can figure out why it wont play back on my tv. thanks PLAYS OK.zip WONT PLAY.zip

That is worth looking into. Thanks for the tip.

Wouldn't it open in a browser like it does does on your phone? My tv does have a browser installed.

Until recently, I had QTS running on my QNAP NAS systems. This guide worked perfectly then. I've since updated all my QTS systems to hero h6.0.0.****. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get the script to run since then. I learned from QNAP support that under QuTS Hero it's no longer possible to let the certificate be converted automatically, as was previously possible with QTS, because the Let's Encrypt certificate is no longer stored under a fixed path. My hope was that I could manually download the automatically updated certificate using the QNAP Control Panel under Security, SSL Certificate & Private Key, and that at least the conversion to a p12 certificate would then happen automatically. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work either. I'm not getting any error message. The log file also always shows that the certificate key hasn't changed, even though I've updated the CRT and key files. I saved all scripts, certificates, and the log file in a folder I created myself, named SSL-Certificate. Since QNAP renamed the cert file to SSLcertificate.crt and the corresponding key file to SSLprivatekey.key, I modified the CertRenew.sh script as follows. My SSL certificate folder looks like this. What's wrong with the script? It's not recognizing that the SSLcertificate.crt file has been renewed, and therefore the certificate and key have changed, so that the emby.p12 certificate should also be updated as it should be. The CertRenew.sh script is running correctly as a cron job every hour, and I can see in the check-p12.log that the key supposedly hasn't changed. Could someone please give me a tip on how to automatically update my emby.p12 certificate using the script? This should happen as soon as I download an updated SSL certificate via the Control Panel and save the contents of the extracted ZIP file to my SSL-Certificate folder, overwriting the SSLcertificate.crt and SSLprivatekey.key files, including the SSLIntermediateCertificate.crt file, with the updated data. I don't think the latter file is needed for this update. Looking at the first two files, I see that the validity period of the certificate (crt) has been updated to the end of June this year, and the contents of the key file are also different.

At least on Emby for Android it seems that the Version in the radial menu is not the one downloaded unless it is also the default selection. For example, I have two versions of a movie, the Theatrical 4k and a Directors Cut 2k and even when I have the 2K DC selected in the version menu, when pressing download it Dow loads the 4K edition. I would request that we download the version selected. The bitrate dialog is not sufficient alone to grab the right version.

If this is causing the problem I always preferred using the pipe symbol | (shift \) for this.

Oh, I see! The lowest 4K option Emby ship is 40 Mbps, but I think that's just a missing preset, not a technical limitation. Lower 4K bitrates should work fine with QSV but I'm not sure what lower threshold would drop quality. Worth raising with the Emby team as a feature request? Some clients also have a custom bitrate option.

For me, it’s constructive criticism and not meant to offend; I would love to see Emby be the best it can be. I bought a lifetime subscription a few months ago, but I find it odd that basic features are missing or non-functional compared to Jellyfin. Auto-next episode is not working: I have to install diagnostic options and enable "Disable HLS Subtitles" to get it to function. Missing TMDB thumbnail options: There is no TMDB option to optimize my thumbnails with text for TV shows. I currently have to rely on Jellyfin to do the "donkey work" of downloading thumbnails with text. Default Functionality: Jellyfin includes the TMDB option for TV show thumbnails with text by default, whereas it seems to be missing here. Auto-next episode : Works perfectly

This is a great idea, which has been requested in several different threads here.

Disclaimer: I know this is a long-standing request. Since previous threads have been ignored for years, I am presenting a more structured and technically detailed version of the proposal in hopes of finally getting it addressed. Background: Currently, the server does not support the Narrator (or "Read by") metadata tag. This makes it extremely difficult to manage libraries where a single book has multiple versions performed by different narrators. Proposed Features: 1. Narrator Tag Support Add support for reading the Narrator (or Composer/Writer mapping used for narrators) tag from file metadata. Display the Narrator on the book's main page (similar to how Artists or Directors are displayed). Make the Narrator field searchable and filterable. 2. Multi-Version Support for Audiobooks Implement a "Versions" system for audiobooks, similar to how it works for Movies. Current Issue: Currently, if there are two versions of the same book (e.g., narrated by Stephen Fry vs. Jim Dale), they either appear as two separate books with identical covers or as one book with doubled tracks. Proposed Solution: Allow multiple versions of the same book to be grouped under one single library card. Users should be able to select their preferred narrator/version via a dropdown menu or a "Version" selector on the book page. Why this is important: For audiobook listeners, the narrator is as important as the author. Many listeners collect multiple versions of the same title. Proper tag support and grouping would significantly improve the library's organization and user experience, bringing it closer to dedicated audiobook players. Technical Implementation: Mapping tags like WM/Narrator, ©nrt (MP4), or a custom NARRATOR tag. Using the existing "Multiple Versions" logic already present in the movie/TV show library.

@soderlund Tagging something by collection seems to fail if there is a comma in the collection name. Worked fine in older versions of the plugin, but now fails using both the old “Local Collection” method and the new “In Collection” method. EDIT: I'm guessing it's because you added the ability to include multiple comma-separated values?

Description of Issues: 1. Improper Metadata Mapping for Sorting and Series Tags The server ignores existing sorting tags even when they are duplicated in multiple industry standards (Apple/iTunes) for compatibility. Specifically, the server fails to recognize: Apple tags: series_apple_name / series_apple_index iTunes tags: series_itunes_name / series_itunes_index MediaInfo field: Album/Sorted by Current Behavior: Instead of reading these fields, the server defaults to copying the Title value into the Sort Album field, which breaks the correct sorting order for book series. 2. Book Overview Mapping Error The book summary (annotation) is read only as "Track" metadata. The main "Book" (Album) page remains empty. Current Behavior: In the case of .m4b files (one file = one book), the description is visible within the track info but is not mapped to the book’s overview page. 3. Date Parsing Error (Timezone Offset) The server applies a timezone offset when reading the "Year" tag. Current Behavior: If a file has a date set to "01.01.[Year]", the server's UTC offset often pushes the date back to "31.12.[Year-1]". Expected Behavior: The year should be read as a static value, ignoring the server's local time or timezone settings. 4. Complete Ignore of Local NFO Files This is the most critical issue. The server completely ignores existing .nfo files located in the book folder during the initial library scan. Current Behavior: Even if a user provides a correctly formatted NFO with fixed tags and collections, the server bypasses it and creates its own database entry containing the errors mentioned above. This makes external automation via scripts impossible. Expected Behavior: NFO Priority: If an .nfo file is present in the directory, its data must take priority over automated scraping. Tag Support: Full support for Apple/iTunes series and sorting tags. Proper Mapping: Automatically mirror the track description to the book overview if the album contains only one file (common for audiobooks). Static Date Parsing: Read the release year without applying timezone shifts. Environment: File Format: .m4b / .mp3 Metadata Tool used: MediaInfo / Mp3Tag / Tone
