Bump

Sorry, but I've uninstalled the android TV client and moved onto the android one as this was a significant regression I couldn't live with. Also, I'm blown away that this was able to get through your build process and the sort of reasons I left Plex.

Hi, please provide a log from the android app: Thanks.

Hi, no ETA but it is in our plans. Thanks.

Hi, thanks again for this. Unfortunately the experience is the same as it was previously.

Same problem beginning June 26th *2026* ( a week or two ago). Only seems to occur when using the universal Android app (updated to latest version) running on my Chromecast HDTV dongle. Perhaps only occurs with shows that I fully stop midstream and then resume. Sorry, I no longer have log files to upload that would illustrate the situation here, but same experience as the posters above.

I never restarted it yet because there are people watching tv and I don't want the phone to ring if I restart I don't feel like being on the phone. But yeah it today a little bit ago says there is an update so I was just thinking it might be a fix for you with your tv recordings

Any word on this addressing this pain point @Luke?

It's not a big deal by all means it works perfect it does what I need and I'm happy with the outcome whether the file size is bigger or not. Now that you have explained it I understand it so thank you very much. Emby just keeps getting better and better.

What do you mean 'again update'. How many times is it trying to update? 4.9.5.0 is the current production version. I have had 4.9.5.0 since May. The recording fix was not listed in the release notes.

Please forgive me. Next time I will try to be a better mind reader to determine what everyone means/meant and purchase Ms Chloes old 800# and charge a small fortune.

Did you just get the update prompt like me? it may be a fix for your recordings of part 1 and part 2.

So that's why we need to look at a specific example. Thanks.

It really depends on the input formats vs the output formats. For example hevc can have a smaller file size with the same quality as h264.

Yes but after I restart my server it will update again to a newer one.

4.9.5.0 has been available since May.

Emby server just showed a new update, cross your fingers.

Your going to have to help me with a solar panel install next just to power this and save money

HI, please try Emby for Android 3.5.38: Thanks.

HI, please try Emby for Android 3.5.38: Thanks.

It just feels like driving 5 cars at once to get to work in the morning what about copy everything to another drive then unplug the drive would make it last longer?

Yes, most users have been exclusively using Emby Connect successfully up until this point (a few years now). The only thing that changed was that I set up the reverse proxy. Emby Connect was still working fine for a few hours after I switched to the reverse proxy but then randomly stopped connecting from anywhere while the domain still works. It will "log in" from Connect but not actually go into the server, just allow you to choose the icon for it and then say that the server is unable to be reached.

Why don't you want them all running? They spin down when not in use, but you need them all running so you can build redundancy into your setup. You want to duplicate files and spread the files evenly across drives, so if 1 goes down you can remove it without losing any files.

Your emby converting tool is a god send and works a treat but the file size gets bigger when I convert a recording it doubles the recording size. If it made the file size smaller would the quality suffer?
