I disagree, I would prefer to use my configured hostname that I entered when I manually set up the connection to the server. The resolution of that address differs depending on if I'm inside or outside my network, but it should be user choice what is advertised or utilized. I never want devices to try to connect directly to the server, and I've put policies in place to prevent that from happening.

Hi! Yes you have to set them up for each user individually. Maybe I can look into the option for a "bulk add". Unfortunately (depends how you look at it) this plugin gets very low attention from me. I just had another kid, starting a new job soon and I just bought a house... So I have my hands full On the bright side this will be a good time to test the plugin without any changes/updates before going to the plugin catalog. If an Emby updates breaks the plugin I will prioritize to get it working again, but I'm not gonna do a lot of "nice to have features" right now. There is about 100+ downloads of the plugin, with very limited bug reports, so I would consider this stable enough for the catalog. My ambition is to put it out there when Emby 4.10 goes stable.

Yes instead of having to do folder by folder. Maybe even have it have a hook to scan for new items added to those folders and autoadd them to playlist / collection they are in.

HI, what does your custom profile look like?

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

i’m using docker. tried both the linuxserver and emby official images — same behaviour either way, which is partly why I moved to the official one, to rule out linuxserver-specific variables. I did try the suggested options; that’s where I started, and the device/permission side is all correct: /dev/dri/renderD128 is mounted, GIDLIST includes the render group, and the container reports libva 1.22.0 + iHD 25.2.4. The proof it isn’t a setup/permissions problem is that running the bundled ffdetect by hand inside the exact same container and image returns the full codec list (vaencdec/qsvencdec both fine). So everything on the suggested-options page is already satisfied — manual detection succeeds, only Emby-spawned detection fails. the difference between the two is a leaked file descriptor. when EmbyServer spawns ffdetect/ffmpeg/ffprobe, the child inherits an unrelated high-numbered fd from the parent — in my repro fd 117, pointing at an EmbyServer socket. a manual docker exec launch doesn’t carry that fd, which is why the same binary detects hardware fine by hand but reports zero codecs when Emby launches it. closing all fds ≥3 before exec is the only thing that fixes it: detection went straight from 0 → 17 hardware codecs (QSV H.264/H.265 decode+encode + VAAPI), and a real 4K HEVC playback then used hevc_qsv/vpp_qsv/h264_qsv with intel_gpu_top showing video-engine activity. so the question is really about the launcher, not the docker options: is EmbyServer expected to spawn the ffmpeg-family tools with arbitrary non-stdio fds inherited? if not, the fix would be setting CLOEXEC on EmbyServer’s own sockets (or only passing stdin/stdout/stderr when forking the detector), which would let me ditch the wrapper. or, perhaps even better, for someone to tell me why i chased these geese so far when the answer was right in front of me.

Also the automatic recovery is not yet supported during playback. Only when browsing the user interface.

@Grimx00perhaps you're just not waiting long enough? When requests start timing out and failing, that's when the automatic recovery happens. It may take time for that to happen.

@eliduvidhas this helped?

The horizontal home screen has never used these options.

I doubt it will help but i see some errors that has to do with UPnP. I suggest try and disable automatic port mapping if possible.

Here is the log file. The problem occurs across all clients (Windows, Browser, Android, …). embyserver.txt

Hi, they are already there, right above the guide, when you have them.

HI, to answer your question, giving us as much detail as possible is most ideal for us. In other words just letting us know what you did at what times. Thanks.

I'm old school and like to scroll through a guide, not look at thumbnails. Maybe you could add the tags to the guide somehow?

Can you please post a screenshot that shows that? Thanks.

How does this screenshot show or demonstrate that it switched to 8096?

Hi, you could add two folders to one library, one for recordings, one for other content. Then configure live tv recording settings after that.

So, what you really want is a tool to convert your folders into collections or playlists?

Currently when you are browsing the user interface, apps can recover from network changes without having to restart. It's only when playing that we don't have this yet, but we do plan to improve it.

No. Users on the LAN would prefer the LAN address be used when possible.

Hi. Can you try searching for our standard android app (Just "Emby" on Amazon and "Emby for Android on Google) on the same device's app store and see how that compares? Thanks.

HI, we are looking into it. Thanks.

I've sent a PM to the Emby devs as well, but, whilst it's been read by one of them, no reply as of yet.

Came here straight after seeing the jellyfin post on reddit expecting to see an update.
