no news about the update ? Downgrade the version to a working version while waiting for a functional update? It's very difficult to look show with this subtitle if you look VOSTR.

probably not enough recources or maybe even nobody to support it today.

I mean, of course. Windows, XBOX or apple are way bigger audience. Android and Android TV are HUGE as well. but we are in Linux thread. I am comparing only linux vs linux here and HUGE thank you for supporting linux Desktop at all!

Maybe the transcoding setting should be a device setting vs user setting. Then you could have it transcode on a mobile device, but not a home theater/TV device, etc.

So using MKVToolnix I removed ALL the subtitles that came with the MKV, then ONLY added my foreign subtitles. So that's the only subtitle track in there.

Oh so that's the name I gave the subtitles when I added it into the MKV with MKVToolnix. They are only for the foreign language, they are not showing up when they are speaking the Yautja language as they should (Subtitles show up when played in the web Emby player though).

Wasn't sure if it was definitely established CableCard was dead, so thought maybe try again with different software. FYI NextPVR would be different software to try. The separate NextPVR plugin would let NextPVR talk to Emby.

I don't get the issue here. If Emby doesn't want to deal with the differences in different distros then why is emby against flatpak?

Sorry but again not reading my rant. Card blew up and don't think Comcast will replace it. Willing to try though if they do. Is this the next PVR plugin? I noticed it's from 2024 so wasn't sure.

Would it help to try with other software - I think NextPVR works with CableCards (whatever they are...)

Please note - again - the Emby Linux app is not a SteamOS app. It's not made for SteamOS and SteamOS is not a primary supported platform. While there's some hype around SteamDeck devices, this is still a small niche among Linux devices with GUI and Linux itself is a niche again. So we're talking about a niche inside a niche, and a platform where the app doesn't even run properly (only without mpv or not in GameMode), so there's not much to win, realistically, as that part cannot be changed.

This is nothing when you compare this with Windows gaming PC market shares.. If you would know figures and compare to Windows/Xbox app, you wouldn't say that. Reality doesn't match what you are thinking. Just look at the Beta Forums - there's not much happening. Of course, everything is possible - we are watching this closely and will adapt. Thanks

Know you guys are usually pretty good at responding but not sure if you read my rant. What do you want me to send an example of? I can't even use it anymore for recording because of my situation mentioned so was more of a question of what others are using based on what I mentioned.

I understand it is Beta, but with Steam Machine release (which is around the corner), and millions of Steam Decks on hands, what defenitelly wotks today and works well is PLEX HTPC. if Emby wants at least a sip on those users then Emby app should be easy installable on SteamOS. Preferably a flatpak. If it was up to me i would target that Linux audience as a priority.

For the hw transcode test above I was actually using the ffmpeg version they're shipping from inside the container.

Release : Emby Optimize V20.5 (Version Linux) Voici la conversion du script de maintenance pour serveurs Emby. Cette version Bash est conçue pour automatiser l'encodage H.265 10-bit NVENC sur les systèmes Linux. [!CAUTION] AVERTISSEMENT : Ce script a été porté de PowerShell vers Linux mais n'a pas pu être testé sur une machine physique pour le moment. CONSEIL DE SÉCURITÉ : Avant de lancer le script sur l'intégralité de votre bibliothèque, créez un dossier de test avec 2 ou 3 fichiers vidéos pour vérifier que les chemins, les permissions et l'encodage GPU fonctionnent correctement sur votre configuration. Ce guide vous permet d'installer un script qui automatise la conversion de vos vidéos au format H.265 10-bit en utilisant l'accélération matérielle NVIDIA (NVENC). 1. Prérequis Avant de commencer, votre système doit avoir accès aux outils d'encodage : HandBrake CLI : L'outil de conversion. Pilotes NVIDIA : Pour que votre carte graphique puisse encoder. Installation sur Ubuntu/Debian/Mint : sudo apt update && sudo apt install handbrake-cli -y 2. Le Script (emby_optimize.sh) Copiez l'intégralité du bloc ci-dessous dans un fichier nommé emby_optimize.sh. #!/bin/bash # ============================================================ # OPTIMISEUR EMBY 10-BIT V20.5 (Linux Universel) # ============================================================ # --- CONFIGURATION : MODIFIEZ VOS CHEMINS ICI --- DIR_CARTOONS="/home/$USER/Videos/Cartoons" DIR_MANGAS="/home/$USER/Videos/Mangas" DIR_SERIES="/home/$USER/Videos/Series" DIR_SPECTACLES="/home/$USER/Videos/Spectacles" DIR_ANIMATIONS="/home/$USER/Videos/Animations" DIR_ANIMES="/home/$USER/Videos/Animes" DIR_FILMS="/home/$USER/Videos/Films" # Dossiers techniques T_DIR="/tmp/Encoder_Emby" L_BASE="$HOME/.cache/Emby_Optimize_Logs" # --- LOGIQUE DU SCRIPT --- mkdir -p "$T_DIR" "$L_BASE" show_menu() { clear echo "============================================" echo " OPTIMISEUR EMBY 10-BIT V20.5" echo "============================================" echo "[S] Cartoons [T] Mangas [U] Séries" echo "[V] Spectacle [W] Animations [X] Animés" echo "[Y] Films [Q] Quitter" echo "--------------------------------------------" } if ! command -v HandBrakeCLI &> /dev/null; then echo -e "\e[31m[!] HandBrakeCLI non trouvé.

Variables à adapter : DIR_... : Remplacez les chemins par défaut par les points de montage de vos disques (ex: /mnt/media/Films). T_DIR : Le dossier temporaire où le script va créer le fichier en cours d'encodage. Assurez-vous d'avoir assez d'espace disque ici. L_BASE : Le dossier où seront stockés les fichiers .txt de suivi (pour éviter de ré-encoder un fichier déjà traité). Comment l'essayer ? Copiez le script dans un fichier emby_optimize.sh. Autorisez l'exécution : chmod +x emby_optimize.sh. Testez : Pointez une des variables (ex: DIR_FILMS) vers un dossier de test contenant 1 ou 2 fichiers seulement. Lancez : ./emby_optimize.sh. Si tout fonctionne sur vos fichiers de test, vous pourrez alors l'appliquer à votre base de données complète !

I’ve been tweaking my Emby home layout recently, and hiding library names definitely makes the interface feel cleaner and more minimal. It’s surprising how small text elements can change the overall look of a screen. If anyone likes customizing visuals beyond layout, I’ve found tools like https://thestylishname.com/ useful for generating clean Unicode text styles for labels or profile names. Little design touches can really elevate the whole media experience.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Yes This... I was just coming here to report that as well. I also had to run the installer twice to get everything successfully installed on its own on both my steamdeck & steam mini-pc. Not sure why that happened... If emby is only installable using terminal + disable the read-only system, it is going to make a lot of general users uncomfortable or just not do it all together. Don't get me wrong, the universal installer is great, but I think it would still be a turn-off for the average users. Especially after OS updates when they discover they have to run it again; it opens the door for a support ticket nightmare as well, with people thinking the emby app is broke (since average users don't understand why its happening)... I believe a flatpak version would resolve this with app discoverability in the repository, the discover/software GUI installer (no terminal required), and no need to disable the read-only file system. Would that be something considered in the future after a stable version is released? Otherwise, even for myself personally, Even though I know what I'm doing, I would just opt to use the browser version as I use SteamOS as my "smart-tv" media player nowadays. Thanks.

01_KODI.log pls see this log its has several errors, when I play/stop movie it freeze for several mins Thanks for your supports

Hi. Anyone uses Emby on Samsung phone with DEX + Xreal Glasses? I cannot control the video when a movies starts. Once it is on DEX mode and phone screen acts as a touchpad. if i touch the screen then no controls appearing Is there any known workaround or fix?

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I'm still trying to figure out all these settings. The end goal is to be able to get away from Infuse for my movies. Right now that is what I have to use to get the audio passthrough for non DD audio. I just want the best audio experience I can get and Dolby Digital is on the low end of that. I'll take LCPM over AC3. I always select what I believe to be the highest quality choice (IMHO) available and want it passed to my AppleTV. That way if the format is supported it will be used, otherwise it will be LPCM.

My family still loves WMC and won't let it go with their XBox 360 extenders. Emby doesn't present as a replacement for them unfortunately. Anyway, I had a HDHomeRun Prime with a cable card on my network and running to record shows in Emby and try and get the family to adopt it. That said, besides shows frequently failing to fully record and stopping after say 38 minutes or whatever the HDHomeRun prime started dropping off the network the other day. I eventually tracked it down to what I thought was the power supply but once I had a new one and it was up again, it seemed to see my cable card but not connect to Comcast. When I trying and look at the card settings it shows "Information is not available." People say that means the cablecard is dead. It showed the same on a second HDHomeRun I picked up to see what was going on as well so now have a spare useless one. Anyway, I digress. What are other people using to record shows on Emby? Thinking I'm missing something that this is actively being developed and cablecards seem to be dead. Most people say Comcast is going to refuse to replace and activate another card which means it's a dead option for me unless somehow it goes differently. What are others recording TV shows with?

Yeah, I went to delete the show I just watched and deleted 15 shows because of this. Keep in mind this "button" doesn't exist in the android app. Guess it doesn't really matter anymore but will post that in another topic.
