Thank you very much!

For audio playlists yes I fixed it already in my internal dev version, but I try to fix the video playlists as well. I'll release a new version by next weekend.

Hello, thank you for your reply. I replied to Luke and ebr, but they didn't respond. I thought this thread might be pretty much dead, so I created a new one. I'm really glad you agree with me—we really need this feature. If the development team could consider implementing this feature, it would be a pleasant surprise for users who have been waiting for it for several years. Even if you hold down the right button on the remote, it takes a long time to scroll all the way to the right for a movie like *The Avengers*, which is really annoying. That's a good suggestion. Anyway, thanks for your reply. I also hope Luke and ebr will reply to my post (Cast at the top, Crew at the bottom.)once they're online.

External subrip subtitles are called SRT.

I would go the docker route, it's in my opinion more versatile.

Hence you should've contributed to that discussion as both FRs are basically asking for the same thing, there's no need for multiple FRs addressing same topic and diluting potential support. For some. I find it utterly unimportant and save Director and Writer, never want to see any other Crew member. But for those that do find it valuable, you are correct and your FR is completely legit - there should be an option. You don't need to keep pressing right arrow - just hold it, you'll eventually get to the end, within a second or two. But as said above, there should be an option to split the two. I would assume that for vast majority of users that isn't question at all. Though that doesn't imply that the other part should just grudgingly accept it, if splitting is unfeasible - order should be selectable. Edit: *Topics merged.* Edit2: Your post has been Recommended as Expanded request so that is visible immediately upon entering the topic as well.

Oh and here are the metadata settings for this library. But this is the only album I've ever experienced any problem with. Settings are also to read from and write to nfo

Hello, there’s already a similar post , but the content of my post is a bit different. I’ve proposed a specific implementation plan, so I’ve created a new post to discuss whether this “specific implementation plan” is feasible and whether you’re willing to implement it. First, we should agree on one thing: the Cast and Crew are equally important. When watching a movie or TV show, we want to know about both the Cast and the Crew. Second, I mostly use the Emby Universal app on Android TV, so I rely entirely on the “Cast & Crew” section to view the crew information. So here’s the issue: currently, when Emby displays the cast and crew, it almost always lists the Cast first and the Crew last. Only for a small number of movies does it list the Crew first (I understand this has to do with source data sites like TMDB; in any case, among the thousands of movies on my NAS, Emby does indeed prefer to list the Cast first and the Crew last). Screenbits 2026-07-11_151533.mp4 You might say, “Emby displays both Cast and Crew—just go check them out,” but the reality is that the Crew section is buried too far down in the “Cast & Crew” column, so we almost never look at it. This is even more pronounced on Android TV: since we’re using a remote control, it’s practically impossible to keep pressing the right arrow key until the Crew section appears… Screenbits 2026-07-11_152237.mp4 Fortunately, someone in the community has already proposed a solution, as shown in the image: Cast at the top, Crew at the bottom. This solves two problems: 1. The difficulty of viewing “Crew” on Android TV. Now, simply pressing the down arrow on the remote moves the cursor to “Crew,” making it easy to view. 2. The question of whether “Crew” or “Cast” should appear first when there’s only one column. Now both are at the top—it’s just that “Cast” is at the top and “Crew” is at the bottom. Of course, some people might not care about “Crew” at all; for them, the current design works better. So I suggest adding this feature as an option. As shown in the image, an option could be added under "Preferences > Display". When enabled, Cast would appear at the top and Crew at the bottom. Finally, there are already many similar posts in the community, and a great many people are hoping to see this feature implemented. Would you be willing to implement this feature? @Luke @ebr Please give us a clear answer—whether you’ll consider it in the future, or whether you won’t be implementing this feature… Thank you so much!

I've got a problem where one track on a 6 track album won't get the correct metadata. The embedded tags are all identical to the rest of the tracks that do get identified correctly. I've done the thing of removing the folder from the filesystem, refreshing the library, putting the folder back, and refreshing the library again, to flush out any old metadata, but with no success. Here is a direct link to the release on MusicBrainz https://musicbrainz.org/release/6a85c9e9-0ef5-4a13-a42e-0c42457b3120 Here are screenshots of the embedded tags of two tracks. The Jack Beats remix gets identified correctly, the James Yuill remix doesn't. When they get imported into Emby, the James Yuill remix doesn't get put onto the same album as the rest, it's treated as a separate album: When looking at the metadata that Emby has pulled, it looks like this. The first screenshot is the James Yuill remix, the second is from one of the tracks identifying correctly. As you can tell, the MusicBrainz IDs are somehow doubled. Even after manually editing the metadata in Emby to match the James Yuill remix to the others, it still isn't put in the album with the other tracks. Removing identification and redoing identification does nothing to fix it either. Here is a server log of me removing the folder from the library, rescanning, adding it back in, and rescanning again. Server version is 4.9.5.0, running in Docker on ElementaryOS. Please advise. embyserver(1).txt

@LukeThank you, appreciate the quick fix and update on this.

@Lukei@Luke tought subrip is also embeed. It's on the video. With downloaded it's OK. There's a way to force it?

How’s it coming along? Also, will there be any specific advantages to waiting for the native app (whenever it drops) instead of going the docking route? Or do you foresee any potential disadvantages?

Hi Luke, Here's the log. From what I can see it errors out at the scrobble/pause moment I think. embyserver-63919535682.txt

Thanks for your reply. Did you checked the problem?

That would be much appreciated. THX

During testing conditions the ui didnt seem to update as i flipped the sort order. but having left it for a few hours...it is given me the expected results. Thanks @Lukeand team for the function and @crusher11 for highlighting its availability.

Salut Max92, c'est exactement le meme truc. Mais bonne nouvelle - j'ai trouve ce script qui ma aide a eliminer les doubles. C'est pas une solution finale mais au moins c'est quelque chose. https://github.com/anthony-foulfoin/trakt-tv-duplicates-removal

@Natelanxon Is this a cloud VM? Did you perhaps enable and use the original Windows administrator account where you don't need/have any elevation requirements and you don't get any UAC (user account control) prompts? Can you run other Windows Store apps without problems? Is your machine member of a Windows domain? Do you have any group-policies configured which might prevent the launch? => run gpresult.exe /v And please look for logs like @Neminemsuggested. Thanks

Was that checking the "Application" log in "Windows Logs" for Source: "Application Error" relating to the Emby app ? A suggested the logs may have some clues

Yes that was what I meant. Thank you

The developers like to have logs so that they can try to see what's happening: Paul

If i change the password here does it just change it for access to the synology server or will it also change the users passwords as well, sorry ,new to this and what i done when i set it all up was entered an easy password to remember to get into synology , but being old then forgot the password . Everything is working fine so upgraded to premiere but when i installed the app on windows it asked me for the synology sign in which was different from the user so need to reset the synology access passwordnd it used the easy password. SORRY if I am sounding stupid

Thanks for an honest answer. If it were a private passion project of mine, I would surely like to explore and try out everything to see what's possible, but for this, it's different priorities: The highest value is to have some who can guide and show me which ways are the safe side and guaranteed (by their own experience) to be working. I think we'll probably set up a small beta group with a few who are interested, so that we can pursue this outside of the mainstream noise about the big HWA paths. Expect progress to be a bit slower and step after step, but eventually it will be great (because we won't stop before it is). Thanks again

Well it's a different behavior on the regular app and the TV app. I like it how it behaves on the TV app Maybe you could make it a feature, and people could decide which option they like, to exit the video or not when the screensaver turns on.

Same with a LG TV model 32LQ63006LA.
