Here is when I last had a library scan. And this is on Saturdays mornings. But I'm done trying to help fix this, after the last runaround by @sa2000 Uter vast of time on my part.

Hi, is there any progress on this? I find this to be the most annoying problem with Emby. It's a crapshoot on iOS whether particular albums will download or not. This is even an issue when the device is on the same network as the server. Thanks in advance.

Still waiting for a shorter scroll time on the spotlight. In the ATV app, which has it as an option, I've got it set to four seconds. 15 is way too long. Also for EHS to be compatible with the full-screen spotlight.

Most memory problems with Emby can for some strange reason be solved by running the media scan in Scheduled tasks. No idea why it works for me. Thought for a while it was Unraid cache being freed but have found out Unraid doesn't show cache as memory used in docker containers.

New Emby server Stable release, v4.10.1.0.

Hi ebr, for those discussing editions, do we need our own request thread or is it already on the list?

The Shield, while old, simply can't be beat.

Here's your comment. Would make it possible for me to easy add an option to EmbyIcons to add icons to spotlight images.

I've seen a couple spikes that were far higher than I would expect to see shortly after I updated to 4.10, but overall no real issues in the last 2 weeks. Couple restarts were for plugin updates, but nothing ran OOM. Couple spikes I saw almost 2 weeks ago: Last 10 days:

Hi, we are looking into it. Thanks.

"ability to be able to add a collection into another collection. ie: Spiderman Collection into a SuperHero Collection. like i could with mediabrowser with shortcuts. A shortcut? A symbolic link? How did it work in media browser as I have never used it.

Then explain it. Many of us are programmers, DBA, software developers.

Thanks for, likes and agreeing with me, but need a few comments every now and again so this doesn't fall of front page of feature request. Let devs know why you would want this.

Get an Shield, that tv is under powered anyways. If you want to do any serious watching.

Sorry, no, it really doesn't. If you are having problems with specific items we should investigate those in a separate thread.

This is my stabil, that I don't fool around with. If these curves had there own way, they would end in OOM And my DB values are even lower than what @sa2000 Asked of me, back in the day. Where he treated me like a guineapig for his enjoinment. And I said no "I will not work out his or devs issues" I spend a good fortnight, trying to help. And sadly its still the same mess, It has gone from under 3GB ram 4.8 till 9-10GB in 4.10 And seeing now that more and more are having this exact issue, is just wrong.

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

Hi everyone, I'd like to suggest an idea to improve Emby's parental control options. It would be awesome to have a "Padlock" or temporary lock option for individual movies or TV shows that admins could easily toggle right from the three-dots menu or from the item's info page. The main idea is that, unlike standard age restrictions which hide content completely, this lock would keep the poster visible in the child's library, but with a padlock icon over it. That way, the kid can see the movie is there, but clearly understands that their parents have temporarily restricted it. If they try to hit play, the app would simply show a restriction message or ask for the admin PIN to unlock it. I think this would be a great feature for everyday family management—like applying a temporary restriction—without having to hide items or reconfigure entire library permissions. What do you all think?

Did you have something specific in mind? I try to mess around them every few years, but never found anything satisfactory. The biggest issue is mostly caused by the player. The web UI one is too limited with the formats it supports so that's only a last resort option and the best player I know for it is kodi, but if the media isn't tagged as movies or tv shows, it handles it extremely poorly when at all so I have to set my tv shows and movies libraries to those if I want it to see it and display the watched status. Even if I were to use something like how videos, it has issues of its own, like for example I have a video with no filename(it's just called .mp4 and emby doesn't see it at all, which is somewhat understandable, but wouldn't be an issue if it simply showed the files, which it should detect as a video since it has a video extension).

The latest stable does seem to maybe have improved things. Still testing but so far it havn't gotten over about 2GB yet.

I only use Plex because Emby isn't available on Hisense Vidaa. If Emby were on Hisense Vidaa, I’d never use Plex again

I agree partially. Do you agree that auto detection can be wrong sometimes? If yes, the "default version" selection I am discussing could be an appropriate answer. Doesn't it ? And for the second point, the "Editions" feature could be very nice, but, IMHO, this feature have to be separated from the "default version" selection. And no matter for me if the Edition selection does have a default. I'm not smart enough to define if it makes sense. It seems to me that we're talking about 2 separate features: - the "Version", bound to quality, biterate, resolution,... - the "Edition", bound to releases, such as Theatrical Cut, Director's Cut, Extended.... Sorry if I'm not as clear as I expect, sometimes my English goes bad.

Seit Jahren warte ich für meinen Beamer/TV auf die emby App. Soll das jetzt zum Dauerzustand werden, oder kommt da noch was ? Für emby (und nur für emby) muss ich immer auf einen alten NVIDIA Shield ausweichen. Wann gibts endlich die VIDAA Unterstützung ?

It’s hardcoding a value that it’s not using, and therefore preventing the correct reverse proxy setup on the NAS.

You can set the public facing router ports in network settings but the local port numbers are not configurable in our synology package. If they’re not configurable then it shouldn’t be a problem that they’re hardcoded in the manifest.
