Why are you attempting to install Emby Server on a phone. It is not designed to run from a phone..

You're paying for a private, PIRATE server that is against the TOS for Emby. No one will help you.

uh what? You aren't being silly and thinking of running an Emby server off your phone, are you? You've given the community basically nothing to work with as your space and ram mean nothing if the processor in your device is a potato.

26.0.12 is the final call. New user functional change is complete.

It is amazing that the other software can do adaptive streaming. It is pretty new but still. At least we have adaptive streaming somewhere. Testing it now.

Yea that’s essentially the charge user function now

As more features have been added i have had to change the arguments sent to FFmpeg and the fix could get lost with that. It should be fixed now and works in my testing as it was just reverting/copying from the old version. It will be added in the catalog as beta version 2.7.0.8 in a minute. Please report back if it fixed the problem.

Yes, I just noticed that. I also noticed when highlighting my username, which shows (Change User), and selecting it brings up the original pulldown menu. Is this the new intended menu design? Select User Icon (upper left corner) Select Username (when highlighted shows Change User) Drop down menu (slides in from left side) App Settings Manage Emby Server Change Server Change User Sign Out Exit Sleep Shutdown Select Server name (when highlighted shows Change Server) Goto Select Server screen Select Settings (when highlighted shows Emby Theater <version>) Goto Settings screen ...

Very insightful

You can change server by clicking on your server name.

Read the link Luke posted... Try a download then post your server log here so that the devs can try to see what's gone wrong. Paul

I see update 26.0.12 which now brings up this menu when the "User" icon is selected, just like the left arrow menu. It still lacks all the options the previous drop menu provided, like "Change Server". To Change Server I have to go to the exit menu. And yes, this is Emby Theater 3.0.20/21 the legacy version.

SMB problems occured in the first version then has been fixed, and is no longer working after 2.4.7. So, one days it worked Thanks for your investigation.

Looking in the logs, it might be because you are using SMB shares for your videos. Will look into it right away.

Hi, right we don't know these for collections given that you can add just about anything to one. that makes it a little harder to figure out what the runtime would actually be.

Try turning off hardware acceleration in the settings.

Because the ability to cancel that process was recently added.

What we're getting at is that why is this just happening as of this update? My connection definitely didn't all of a sudden get bad, it's super fast. Awhile ago I had a crappy connection and I had no problems with Emby whatsoever, and no popup message like now.
