@softworkz i checked it yesterday afternoon, and it was working. Everything is translated and operational.

I have installed the latest version. My O/S is Windows 11 Home, My PC is Quite Capable-- i9 ---128gb Ram --- 2x4TB 990Pro M.2's in Raid0, onboard Graphics, etc. This is a real problem because, say for example your PC rebooted in the middle of the night to do windows updates. The next morning Emby's Opening Page is there keeping the computer awake , which is not good for a lot of reasons. Does anyone know how to make emby startup Minimised.

** Additional ** After a lot more reading, I now know why the alternative works so much easier on the out of the box experience, by using their relay service. Now I know that, it's definitively only Emby for me!

If I understand correctly, cached data is stored for about 30 days, after which it is deleted if it has not been accessed. Correct me if this is wrong. It would be useful to have the option to permanently store cached and downloaded data. I have a bad and often restricted internet, and when emby cannot load images or other data (thumbnails, persons) that have disappeared due to the cache lifetime, it turns into torture, it slows down and the layout breaks, because can't download the media again. Еhanks for the great software.

Hi yocker, looks like the Troubleshooter only checks in TV Shows & Series. It finds lots of inconsistences (more than one language, wrong codec etc.) in series. I cannot enter a title "outside" Series etc. After Clear Cache and refresh it shows only: Working Set: 665.79 MB Private Bytes: 268517.15 MB Managed Heap: 77.04 MB Series Cache: 0 entries Episode Cache: 0 entries Active Locks: 62 As of: 2026-06-14T09:36:56.5536849Z but no label/overlay at the cover. the nfo part looks like this: <audio> <codec>aac</codec> <micodec>aac</micodec> <bitrate>192000</bitrate> <language>zxx</language> <scantype>progressive</scantype> <channels>2</channels> <samplingrate>48000</samplingrate> <default>True</default> <forced>False</forced> </audio>

@MediaEmby1968 - there was an issue - could you please try again now?

Thanks @Luke ...but @TheShanMan - sounded like he would have actually be using a PIN already?

Now that shouldn't be hard to implement since the mechanism is already in Emby.

Hey, I have this problem, as it seems only with one of the tv shows. Ducktales. It comes up as two entries on continue watching. One is the swedish language selected as it should. and the other one seems to have german selected as audio and subtitles. What can cause this problem? They have the same resume points, but different languages. One shows up as Ducktales, and the other one "Ducktales, knatte, fnatte och tjatte på äventyr" which is the swedish title. running Version 4.10.0.14 beta

Almost missed your post, hence the long time to reply. Sorry about that. What does the trouble shooter in the settings say?

I gave up troubleshooting and just reinstalled. Then setup everything again

Hi everyone, is there any news on this topic yet?

Thanks! Happy to hear you like the plugin This sounds like a bug, playlist is supposed to update in the same way as tags etc. What happens if you only run that group instead of the sync task? (The blue "Run group" for each source group)

I would try using VAAPI instead of QSV for your transcoding, just as a test. To see if that will help with transcoding issues. >>>>>> User policy for Andy Enable Playback Remuxing: True Enable Video Playback Transcoding: True Enable Audio Playback Transcoding: True >>>>>> Hardware Decoders for hevc [X] QuickSync Alder Lake-N UHD Graphics - H.265 (HEVC) [ ] VAAPI Alder Lake-N UHD Graphics - H.265 (HEVC) >>>>>> Hardware Encoders for h264 [X] QuickSync Alder Lake-N UHD Graphics - H.264 (AVC) [ ] VAAPI Alder Lake-N UHD Graphics - H.264 (AVC) Because of these speeds, they should be over 1.0 just to keep up. 22:22:39.864 elapsed=00:00:00.03 frame= 1 fps=0.0 q=0.0 size=N/A time=00:00:00.00 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed= 0x 22:22:40.199 elapsed=00:00:00.54 frame= 24 fps=0.0 q=25.0 size=N/A time=00:00:00.15 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.293x 22:22:40.710 elapsed=00:00:01.05 frame= 55 fps= 52 q=14.0 size=N/A time=00:00:00.69 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.656x 22:22:41.223 elapsed=00:00:01.56 frame= 84 fps= 54 q=8.0 size=N/A time=00:00:01.11 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.715x 22:22:41.719 elapsed=00:00:02.08 frame= 110 fps= 53 q=8.0 size=N/A time=00:00:01.56 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.753x 22:22:42.240 elapsed=00:00:02.58 frame= 138 fps= 53 q=8.0 size=N/A time=00:00:02.07 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.805x 22:22:42.753 elapsed=00:00:03.09 frame= 165 fps= 53 q=8.0 size=N/A time=00:00:02.50 bitrate=N/A throttle=off speed=0.81x

Is there anyway you could PLEASE make it so you can toggle the different attributes? Having to scroll through 1000's of studio names and tags is quite the task.

@ebrSure, here's a few transcode logs from trying to play one of the channels in question on my Roku TV, and a photo of the "stats for nerds" from my playing the same channel on my iPhone 30 seconds later (where it's doing a total direct stream). ffmpeg-transcode-dae204e7-1a3c-438d-9bea-76df2f706853_1.txt ffmpeg-transcode-69510d53-9952-41cd-aa30-cc057298b10b_1 (1).txt ffmpeg-transcode-69510d53-9952-41cd-aa30-cc057298b10b_1.txt

The catalog is indeed awkward. When browsing you only get a logo and name, often that is no help what so ever to what the plugin does. While there isn't that many plugins in the catalog, in the future when there are some more it will take a long time to browse it. A "simple" fix IMO would be to have it work like movies in Emby. Press a category and have it scroll like movies do with a small description under the logo and name.

Thank you for the info I will keep an eye out for the next update.

HI, what was the solution?

For new files. It won't change existing ones.

Hi, this is currently how it behaves although we could expand on the startup behavior option to add more control. Workaround for now is to do a logout, or setup a profile pin and then you'll be prompted for the pin.

It does, but being able to filter/exclude already installed plugins would cut down on some of the noise. No arguments here...they are, but it would still be nice to see all plugins for a given category on the screen without having to scroll to the right (or hope that CTRL/CMD-F finds it) This is a bit aspirational and low-priority, TBH. Nevertheless, it probably wouldn't take a motivated forum member enough to put together an evidence-based dossier on the state of licensing and have at least partial data on it. I'd volunteer for it if it was worth implementing.

Im not reporting a problem, unless you think my lack of knowledge is a problem LOL. Im asking if i did it right. I described in detail what i did, and surely cant report a problem, if i dont know if what i did is right. I asked in general, does anyone see if i made any mistakes? I I don't know know if i did it right, I can't put in a problem report. If its wrong, send a post as to why, so one can lean. here is a streamlined version of original .installed scripterx on windows. Have a file that takes an argument, to be ran at the start of recording. There are 3 text boxes, RUN. I put script. USING, i put cmd. PARAMETERS i put argument", i select true and move it down to below Where. Nothing ODD OR BAD in the logs. Anyone see any mistakes, omissions or things i did wrong. if its right say that too. Thanks.

Hi Luke and the Emby development team, First off, thank you for all the continued work on the Live TV infrastructure. The way Emby handles standard, physical HDHomeRun tuners is incredibly stable, and the fast loading times for the guide data are much appreciated. I’ve been diving into some custom tuner management lately and noticed a great opportunity to make Emby’s channel synchronization even more seamless, particularly for users whose channel lineups evolve over time (which is becoming a lot more common). Currently, because Emby does such a great job optimizing and caching the /lineup.json data for fast performance, adding new channels to a tuner often requires users to do a full remove-and-re-add cycle in the dashboard to force a fresh sync. A Native Protocol Opportunity While reviewing the official SiliconDust documentation, I noticed there is actually a native signaling mechanism designed for this exact scenario that we might be able to tap into. When an HDHR device is updating its lineup or running a background scan, it broadcasts a state change via the /lineup_status.json endpoint using the ScanInProgress field. The normal transition looks like this: Standard idle state: "ScanInProgress": 0 Lineup actively updating: "ScanInProgress": 1 Update complete: "ScanInProgress": 0 Here is an example of the payload during an active update: JSON { "ScanInProgress": 1, "ScanPossible": 1, "Source": "Cable", "Lock": "qam256" } The Proposed Enhancement If Emby's tuner logic could monitor this endpoint and watch for that 0 -> 1 -> 0 transition, it could use the final drop back to 0 as a native trigger to silently re-fetch /lineup.json in the background. Implementing this small protocol handshake would allow Emby to gracefully append new channels without requiring users to rebuild their tuner configurations. It’s a subtle change, but it would be a massive win for power users and likely cut down on forum support questions regarding missing channels. I’d be more than happy to provide logs or payload captures of these state transitions if it helps the team test this out.
