App version is 3.5.36 (May 15th, 2026) I select a genre then shuffle. After 15 minutes, the Google screensaver starts.

What app version number? How did you start playback?

@zellonatiousapologies for the disruption. Have you had this happen again?

I use Emby for Android on my Google TV Streamer.

How are you playing from Emby?

It shows nothing

HI, yes that does sound related. We are working on getting the app update out. Thanks.

Hi, what does it show now?

How have you configured your emby user subtitle options? Do you need Russian subtitles?

@ab123gaIt kicks off a guide refresh in some cases because depending on what you update, other things have to get updated. The goal is to make this lighter on it's feet over time so that this no longer becomes necessary.

It may work already on the beta channel.

OK please try the update to the Discogs plugin that just went up. Thanks.

Can you please try it? Thanks.

OK we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

Actually at this point the store app is ahead of the download. I would just install from the store.

This might impact your remote access but would not impact access on the LAN. And even then, you can setup port forwarding in your router and then you don't need the automatic port mapping: Connecting from Client Apps

Can you please provide a log from the app? Thanks.

That's not it

I would also like to support this request for a proper native bulk metadata editor in Emby. Honestly, it is a bit discouraging to see that this request has been open for almost 10 years and there still does not seem to be clear progress in this area. Bulk metadata editing is a very important feature for users with large libraries who need to modify tags, genres, studios, people, metadata locks, or other fields across many items at once. So far, many users have relied on Bulky Editor, which is probably the plugin that comes closest to covering this need. However, the plugin does not seem to have received major updates for quite some time, and that is starting to show. With current Emby versions, several issues are appearing, especially when working with tags and bulk editing. For that reason, I think Emby really needs an official, maintained, and fully compatible solution for bulk metadata editing. A feature this basic and important should not depend on an external plugin that may no longer be actively maintained. I hope this can receive higher priority in future Emby versions.

Hi @Luke thanks for the update. Unfortunately its still the same as far as I can see with 3.5.37. Thanks Jordan

I wasn't either until just over a week ago, an updated UI rolled out (buttons are rounder? some other very minor graphical changes) and since then -> this.

Hi @Luke thanks for the update. Unfortunately its still the same as far as I can see with 3.5.37. Thanks Jordan

@yockerThanks, but disabling UPNP makes it worse. After a restart emby can not be accessed anymore, no matter on which port or address. I enabled it via ssh. Emby is installed on synology via package manager. @LukeThank you, now it is loading instantly. I saw that the plugin wasn't configured (no username saved), maybe this was the problem?

Im not experiencing that in TV mode across 3 different PC's on 2 different servers.

Hi, I would like to report an issue with Bulky Editor when editing tags in bulk. I am using a mixed Emby library that contains both movies and TV series. My goal is simple: add a tag such as movies to all movies and another tag such as series to all TV shows, so I can later filter the library by tag. The problem is that Bulky Editor appears to add the tag in its own interface, but the tag is not actually applied to the selected items in Emby. What happens: I select several movies in Bulky Editor. I use the bulk edit option to add a tag, for example movies. Bulky Editor shows the tag as if it was added. In Emby, the tag appears in the filter list. But when I filter by that tag, no movies appear. If I open/check the movies in Emby, the tag does not seem to be really assigned to them. I also thought it could be related to locked metadata, so I removed/unlocked the metadata protection from those movies and tried again, but the result was exactly the same. Interestingly, removing tags seems to work, but adding tags in bulk does not appear to persist correctly in Emby. I am currently using the latest Emby beta, so I do not know if this issue already existed before or if something changed recently in Emby. However, it looks like Bulky Editor has not been updated for a long time, possibly since 2023, while Emby has continued to receive many updates. Maybe some API or metadata handling changed, especially with mixed libraries, folders, or item tagging. Could you please check if Bulky Editor is still maintained and whether it can be updated for the latest Emby versions? This plugin is very useful for bulk metadata editing, but if it is not updated, more compatibility issues may continue to appear as Emby keeps changing. Thanks.
