Hey I'm sorry to up that post but I have an issue. I have kodi on my smart tv and an android projector. It works fine with my emby library on Synology NAS. The issue is I don't have the same options in the emby next gen plugin, including the delete option. I tried to install a backup from the tv to the projector just in case but still the projector doesn't show many options in the interface tab. Is there something I can do?

Just avoid the dashes. Spaces might be fine. The media thumbnails all get either just poster.jpg and landscape.jpg or if there is a second media in a folder, then the poster becomes something like "Rocky (1976)-poster.jpg". Dashes are also used to show difference in media resolutions so that: Rocky (1976) - 720P.mp4 Rocky (1976) - 1080P.mp4 Gets listed in the pulldown as just 720P and 1080P. The part of the file name up to the dash is removed for the pull down list. This was also causing the player screen to not show the full title in the lower left on mouseover, when there was multiple dashes. That has been fixed. There is code to truncate from the dash for listing different resolutions in the Video pull down selection for the media page. The code that does that might be truncating your file names for the Collection images. It shouldn't do this, but the file name might run through the code by mistake that removes the first part of the file before the dash. It is just a guess. It's an easy bug to miss. You would have to use dashes in testing in order to see the problem. Hope that helps.

@Luke That's been covered in this thread.

Upgraded to the latest server version and it seems to work now! (I notice there are a few subtitle fixes in the release.)

For security reasons NAS's don't make it easy to get into system folder/files. I'm assuming 'file station' = Synology so fallow this from the source: https://kb.synology.com/en-global/DSM/tutorial/How_to_login_to_DSM_with_root_permission_via_SSH_Telnet or an older post on this forum:

Hola, mismo error. No estoy en insider. Tampoco aparecen errores en el visor de eventos ni en %LocalAppData%\CrashDumps EmbyClient.txt

Yes if you're looking in the 3 dot menu that's not where it is, it's down the page.

This may the same problem I started seeing. When you first start playing a movie the video is choppy/jerky. If you FF or rewind one time it straightens out. I'm running ATV 2.1.46g on my two Shields.

Hi Luke Is there any way of disabling Direct Play server-side as a global setting to disable it for all clients? Everything else in Emby works fine but watching Live TV has never worked reliably on any devices - just hoping there's some way to make it work properly. Thanks.

Not sure why you're not seeing it, a "Split Versions Apart" button in every multi-version item's detail view, Media Info section at the bottom.

Hi, I found a workaround to change when the “Next Episode / Up Next” prompt appears in Emby Web. Tested on Emby 4.9.5.0. File: /opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/videoosd/videoosd.js Original logic uses: 30 / 35 / 40 seconds before the end, depending on episode duration. I changed it to trigger at 96% of playback instead, so the prompt appears when about 4% of the episode remains. Patch idea: 1. Backup the file. 2. Replace the fallback timing logic: runtimeTicks-1e3*(fiftyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks?40:fortyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks?35:30)*1e4 with: runtimeTicks*.96 3. Optional but important: Emby may use CreditsStart markers when available, so I also forced creditsInfo to 0 in the UpNext calculation to always use the percentage-based trigger. 4. Restart Emby. 5. Clear/reload the browser cache for: /web/videoosd/videoosd.js?v=4.9.5.0 In Chromium/Chrome DevTools console: fetch('/web/videoosd/videoosd.js?v=4.9.5.0', {cache:'reload'}) Important notes: - This is not an official setting. - It will probably be overwritten by Emby updates. - Backup before modifying. - A proper UI setting would still be much better. Result: The UpNext prompt now appears around 96% of the episode instead of the hardcoded 30/35/40 seconds.

Hi, on the latest stable version it seems there is no more menu point to split versions. How to split versions of movies now? E.G if i have a 1080p and a 4K movie and i work with tags, i need to set the 4K movie tags before i match them, otherwhise emby is not able to write the tags only to the 4k movie, and it marks the 1080 and the 4k version with tags like "4K" or "dolbyvision" and only after i set the tags, i can merge them again. So how can i do this right now as there seems to be no more option to split versions. Thanks

Sorry Long answer : but solved issue And it's in French HowTo - Emby Web : bouton Épisode suivant à 96 % de lecture Version : 04/07/2026 1. Principe Objectif : afficher le bouton 'Épisode suivant' dans Emby Web quand 96 % de l'épisode est lu. Ce réglage remplace le comportement natif, qui utilise environ 30/35/40 secondes avant la fin, ou un marqueur CreditsStart quand il existe. 0.96 signifie : déclencher quand il reste 4 % de la durée totale. Chemin concerné : /opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/videoosd/videoosd.js Plateforme testée : Debian 12, Emby Web 4.9.5.0. 2. Sauvegarder le fichier Créer le dossier de sauvegarde puis copier le fichier JavaScript original. sudo mkdir -p /root/backup_emby_ui sudo cp -a /opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/videoosd/videoosd.js /root/backup_emby_ui/videoosd.js.BAK_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S) 3. Appliquer le patch 96 % Le patch ignore le marqueur CreditsStart, puis remplace le seuil par runtimeTicks*.96. La commande ci-dessous reste utilisable si le fichier contient encore les valeurs natives 40/35/30 ou un ancien test en 120/120/120. sudo python3 - <<'PY' from pathlib import Path import re p = Path('/opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/videoosd/videoosd.js') s = p.read_text() s = s.replace( 'creditsInfo=(null==creditsInfo?void 0:creditsInfo.start)||0', 'creditsInfo=0' ) pattern = r'runtimeTicks-1e3\*\(fiftyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?\d+:fortyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?\d+:\d+\)\*1e4' s2 = re.sub(pattern, 'runtimeTicks*.96', s, count=1) if s2 == s and 'runtimeTicks*.96' not in s: raise SystemExit('Seuil UpNext non trouvé : vérifier manuellement videoosd.js') p.write_text(s2) print('OK patch UpNext 96 pct') PY 4. Redémarrer Emby Le redémarrage force Emby à resservir le fichier modifié. sudo systemctl restart emby-server 5. Vérifier côté serveur Cette commande contourne le cache navigateur avec un paramètre aléatoire. Le résultat attendu est creditsInfo=0 puis runtimeTicks*.96. curl -s 'http://debian12:8096/web/videoosd/videoosd.js?check='$(date +%s) | grep -oE 'creditsInfo=0|runtimeTicks\*\.96|runtimeTicks-1e3\*\(fiftyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?[0-9]+:fortyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?[0-9]+:[0-9]+\)\*1e4' Résultat attendu creditsInfo=0 runtimeTicks*.96 6. Forcer le cache du navigateur Piège observé : Chromium peut garder l'ancien videoosd.js pour l'URL versionnée videoosd.js?v=4.9.5.0. Dans la console du navigateur, sur l'onglet Emby, forcer le rechargement de cette URL exacte. Adapter v= si Emby utilise une autre version. fetch('/web/videoosd/videoosd.js?v=4.9.5.0', {cache:'reload'}) .then(r => r.text()) .then(t => console.log( 'PCT96=', t.includes('runtimeTicks*.96'), 'CREDITS0=', t.includes('creditsInfo=0'), 'HAS_NATIVE=', /fiftyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?\d+:fortyMinuteTicks<=runtimeTicks\?\d+:\d+/.test(t) )); Résultat attendu dans la console PCT96= true CREDITS0= true HAS_NATIVE= false 7. Recharger Emby Web Fermer et rouvrir l'onglet Emby, ou utiliser Ctrl+F5. Lancer ensuite un épisode et vérifier l'apparition du bouton vers 96 % de lecture. 8. Effet de 0.96 selon la durée Durée épisode Bouton vers 40 min 1 min 36 restantes 50 min 2 min restantes 60 min 2 min 24 restantes 9. Retour arrière Restaurer le backup choisi, redémarrer Emby, puis forcer le cache navigateur comme plus haut. sudo cp -a /root/backup_emby_ui/videoosd.js.BAK_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS /opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/videoosd/videoosd.js sudo systemctl restart emby-server 10. Notes importantes Ne pas supprimer /var/lib/emby/metadata ni /var/lib/emby/cache pour ce sujet : le problème n'était pas la base Emby, mais le JavaScript servi et le cache navigateur. Une mise à jour Emby peut remplacer videoosd.js. Dans ce cas, refaire la sauvegarde puis réappliquer le patch. creditsInfo.start correspond au début du générique détecté par Emby via CreditsStart. Le patch creditsInfo=0 force l'utilisation du seuil proportionnel, donc un comportement constant.

Hola, yo también tengo un servidor que usa un almacenamiento que tiene las imagenes y metadatos y para que lo lea en la configuración de la biblioteca le activé esto: En tu caso revisa si la tienes. Si no la tienes activa y refresca metadatos de toda la biblioteca

As advised above, that is a question for plugin Dev. One thing you could check do is untick/tick again all enabled Collection Image Fetchers for your Collections library under your Settings>Library tab, then check how does it behave for newly created collections. For existing ones, multi-select>Refresh Metadata on those missing artwork, you don't need to do it one by one.

Hola, tu estás en el programa insider en esos equipos? También puedes intentar hacer esto para descartar permisos: desde el explorador ve a la ruta de Emby C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\EmbyMedia.EmbyTheater... y busca la aplicación Emby.Client.WinUI y ejecútala desde allí pero como administrador

Here too. It’s problem of latest update. On other clients works well. Only on iOS with latest update broke trailer from internet. Local trailers still working.

I removed and will run re-scans. As you noted, core emby includes collections. That does not answer why the collections built did not include the posters. Again, as noted, the posters are there for them if I manually add or refresh the collection but I should not have to do that. Will see what I get with a refresh. Thanks

Hi there! Thanx for the tip, will give it a try So like "Collectionposter.jpg" for example? N.

Hi, I'd like to try the plugin. Do you know how I can get it? I can't seem to find it in the plugin catalog.

Correct, hence plugin Dev was tagged. You are mixing things a bit: auto-collections are part of Emby core, per-library setting (without any additional plugins), and it behaves as it always had: gets collection (movie set) data from TMDB (if enabled in library edit). You have installed 3rd-party plugin that has additional/expanded feature set. If you want previous behavior/collections only as they used to be, uninstall plugin and you'll get only that.

Thanks. I’ve been testing it, and it works well. I have one question: if a user doesn't have access to a specific library, will the movie or TV show from that library still appear when this message is shown? If so, is there a way to exclude certain libraries for specific users?

Don't worry about this, it will be fixed. Do you see any other issues in this area?

That's definitely a bug. The toggle should always be rightmost.

Hi @softworkz Button reordering on genericitemlists Heres a video showing what i think is an issue. The rows below a removed genericlistitem change their button order (same for added). Hopefully i am not embarrassing myself with a coding mistake (code attached).. but i dont think i have control over button order so hopefully i am in the clear. 2026-07-04 15-41-17.mp4 ai thinks theres an issue in createListButton in the client side ManageComingSoon.zip \UI\AddMovie
