This is what you should see when installing the AndroidTV app from scratch

Well, I'm sorry to say that this situation is not fixed or clear @Luke. I am desperately seeking some clarity and some transparency from the Emby developers about how you process scans. I'm attaching below a series of screenshots to show that I am trying to have the displayed year for some music albums be the year of composition, long ago (1594), not the year the actual albums were recorded (2013). Also attached is the log file.Here's what I did: deleted every NFO file, manually in MP3tag, created originalyear fields and populated them with the same corrrect older date did the Emby dance to remove everything from the library made sure that MusicBrainz is not supposed to be consulted. But then when I rescan and return those files to Emby, the scan for some reason is reaching out once again to MusicBrainz! and overwriting the data in my actual files. Please, please, please just provide some clear information on how Emby is doing these music library scans and how to stop it from bringing in external data that hasn't been requested in our settings and that is overwriting actual tag data that we have manually put in. embyserver.txt

good find.. could be this then https://dev.emby.media/reference/pluginapi/MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.BaseItem.html#MediaBrowser_Controller_Entities_BaseItem_GetInternalMetadataPath and this GetImagePath(BaseItem, ImageType) https://dev.emby.media/reference/pluginapi/MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.BaseItemExtensions.html

Thank you very much for this! I just started using Gotify and this is great.

هذه مشكلتي ما الحل ؟

When it comes to death, you will always loose. Best you can do is appease him. But yeah, i need to start actually start reading the agreements i sign. Btw. i have a couple of days before the next event i have to attend so looking into it now. If i'm right, it's just changing the script a bit so hopefully not much work.

What is your CPU model please ? @Mahinepuai7 4770 2013 @nicko84i3 6100T 2015

Do you have Emby Data Explorer plugin installed? You can view the people data that way and it might point you in the right direction. EDIT: I noticed some newer people in my server don't have a path mentioned, in the data below there is still mention of where their primary image is stored, so that could still be a data point.

No, I don't see how it would be useful without making changes to people folders/files. Because I do not know which profiles/folders are actively being used, I cannot delete anything. So there wouldn't be anything to scan for. Unless Devs decide to make folder paths available in the people profiles metadata editor or through the API, I don't think my app can move forward.

And about the rest of those ideas. I get you're trying to be helpful. But.... meta data errors that only show when playing any h264 10bit video? And disappear when using any other video codec? Using the exact same software, and keeping all settings equal besides video codec? And I specifically said the Sony Media Player can play these files. So can Emby Android-tv. Only Emby Android can not. So not sure where the idea comes from that the Sony TV player (what ever that is) rejects the files.

@yockeryou do know, you need to read the @GrimReaper's small print before signing

It happens when starting playback or when trying to skip a TV show intro, for example. Attached is a Screenshot of my Emby Premiere status.

I did indeed understand it the same as you.

Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying that. I think I misunderstood Luke’s message. When he said that es-419 was added to the language code list, I thought he meant that a new fix had been added recently, possibly in an internal build or upcoming beta version. That is why I assumed it might start working in the next beta release. I think @yocker understood it in a similar way too, since he also asked whether it was already in the released beta or only in an internal version. But now I understand the issue better: Emby may already have es-419 in its language mapping list, but if FFprobe does not expose the regional tag from the MKV file, then Emby never receives that information in the first place. So even if Emby knows how to map es-419 to Spanish (Latin America), it cannot apply that mapping if FFprobe only reports the track as spa / Spanish. That was my confusion. Thanks for pointing it out.

Hi everyone, I know this thread is mainly focused on server-side extraction and integrating Xtream VODs into Emby servers, which is awesome. But if anyone here is just looking for a simple, on-the-go solution to download VODs directly to an Android device or Android TV without dealing with scripts, I wanted to share a project I recently built. I got tired of the hassle of downloading VODs for offline viewing, so I developed my own clean, lightweight IPTV player called LOD Player. It has a native Offline Download feature specifically for VODs. You just log in with your Xtream API, browse to the VOD section, and hit the download icon. It saves the media straight to your device's local storage (perfect for flights or traveling). It's currently live on the Google Play Store (LOD Player). The free tier lets you download and keep 1 movie/episode at a time locally. Just thought I'd drop this here as a practical alternative for those who want a quick mobile/TV offline viewing fix. I'm the developer, so if you decide to test it out, I’d love to hear your technical feedback! Cheers.

buenasss ,alguien sabe por que no busca los temas de video de las peliculas , e bajado el complemento y le doy a tarea programada pero nada no hace nada, gracias de antemano

Hi folks! Do we have any news for this please? Thank you!

Hi there, is there any update for this? Thank you! It's still buggy on "Firefox 152.0 (64-bit) - Linux Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS".

Good Morning, For example, this is what my log shows for running the intro detective scheduled task. 2026-06-18 11:34:20.991 Info TaskManager: Executing Detect Episode Intros 2026-06-18 11:34:21.175 Info App: Dinosaurs Specials has 1 episodes with audio fingerprints available 2026-06-18 11:34:21.175 Info App: Detecting markers for Dinosaurs Specials - episode Dinosaurs (1991) - S00E01 - The Making of Dinosaurs.mp4 2026-06-18 11:34:21.178 Info App: Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE has 36 episodes with audio fingerprints available 2026-06-18 11:34:21.178 Info App: Detecting markers for Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE - episode Dr. STONE (2019)/Dr. STONE (2019) - S04E36.mkv 2026-06-18 11:34:22.205 Info App: Best title sequence for Dr. STONE (2019) - S04E36.mkv is 00:01:52.0646766 - 00:03:25.7213930.

I'm not sure what you need since this one is a bit new to me. Thank you.

Hi there, do you have some updates, by any chance?

No rush, enjoy your vacation, you'll eventually get around to it after. Have a cold one for me as well.

Oh, woops.. well that's what you get when I'm on vacation Will look into it asap and see what can be done.

Erm... yes. Maybe it was my wording that was ambiguous, being a non-native English speaker yourself, you know how often something in your head sounds different then when put in English. Anyway, I hought you'd read the topic from the start as it's just a few posts: basically, intention was to just include an option for subs along with other metadata/images to be extracted from db/server metadata folder, literally same workflow, in the same direction: from server metadata folder to either media folders or custom folder, as subs behave exactly like images: if not explicitly opted-in to save them alongside media they get saved in server metadata folder with no (easy) venues to extract/move them afterwards. From OP:

All i added was an option that copies/moves the subtitle files from the library that the videos are in to a user custom chosen library. So if: TV series/Blackadder/Blackadder S01E03.srt Copy/move to user chosen library along side the other metadata. Works with all external subtitle formats.. That i know of. Have i misunderstood what was wanted?
