That sounds like not all episodes has been marked played.

I wanted to share something I've been experimenting with, in case it's useful for this request. It turns out that delivering the video over HLS with fMP4 (fragmented MP4) segments opens up a really nice path for these MKV HEVC HDR files on the Apple TV. Rather than transcoding (and tone-mapping) the video, the server can simply remux the MKV into fMP4 over HLS and stream-copy the HEVC video untouched — it's essentially just a container rewrite, so it's very light on the server and, importantly, it keeps the HDR intact. Here's the result on an Apple TV 4K, playing a 4K HEVC Dolby Vision (Profile 8.1) title: (Jellyfin + Custom Jellyfin Apple TV app -developed by myself-) ffmpeg … -i "….mkv" -map 0:0 -map 0:2 -map -0:s \ -codec:v:0 copy -tag:v:0 hvc1 -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb \ -codec:a:0 copy -f hls -hls_segment_type fmp4 … Stream mapping: Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (copy) Stream #0:2 -> #0:1 (copy) The -codec:v:0 copy is the key part — the HEVC HDR stream is passed through as-is and plays in HDR on the TV, with no tone mapping and negligible CPU. One small thing on the client side, in case it's helpful: with a multi-variant HLS playlist (an HDR remux rendition plus an SDR fallback at the same bandwidth), the native AVPlayer tends to pick the SDR one unless the client specifically selects the VIDEO-RANGE=PQ variant. Once the client targets the HDR rendition, it plays great. So the fMP4/HLS remux route looks like a genuinely useful option here — gentle on the server and it preserves HDR on the Apple TV. Just sharing in case it helps, and happy to go into more detail. FFmpeg.Remux-2026-06-07_17-01-04_32ce8d77902368b0e4edd358b2059492_8848d63c.log

I can't reproduce what you say. Whatever I play I only see item?id and serverID= in link path. But when opening a pdf on IOS now, I see the api key in the link path and I don't see a way to stop that behavior. So I need to remove my books libraries now, don't see another option. BR

As-tu vérifié dans la box que la machine qui héberge ton serveur emby a toujours la même ip ? Il tourne sur quelle plateforme ? Windows ? Linux ? OSX ?

Le DHCP est activé sur la box

The now playing view should display the reason for the MaxStreamingBitrate= selection. If the client is using Auto it should display "Auto", if the client is using a manual quality selection it should should the quality selection (10 Mbps). With Auto Quality being broken it is helpful for admins to recognize when clients are using Auto and direct them to set a manual quality.

Hello @ginjaninja, I dont understand what you mean.. I have 2 echo dots and each one can play its own music, each dot has its own session. Help me understand the problem you are experiencing with Ear Wax Thank you

Can you please add a "Use modified date" option in the "Date added behavior for new content" menu which is located in the advanced library settings? With that option I will be able to see all modified content for all types, specially for music, as I always edit the tags or when a file is replaced by a different one, for example when I replace an MP3 file with a FLAC file, the idea is to be able to play that content directly from the "Latest" rows at home without having to search for each item:

Any more info on this? I have four Roku's working fine with my current server. But attempts to get it running on two additional Roku's are failing. The server says they log in correctly, but the Emby Roku app simply crashes/goes back to the Roku home screen 20 seconds after trying to start -- the Emby home screen never even displays.

Hi! When I press Continue watching it starts showing episdode somewhere from the middle of tv show (4th out of 10 for example).

Thank you I will make that change…

You'd change your commands to use "rwX". Yes, that's an upper "X".

What would you suggest that I use in place of “rx”?

If you only use "rX" then Emby won't be able to create files (nfo, sub-titles, metadata, etc.) or manipulate the media (convert, delete, etc.)

Continuous changelog for Emby Windows & Xbox Stable in a single topic for reference. The topic remains locked. Please create your own topics or reply to the individual release posts.

I would also set the user to be default on all folders so if you get any new content the facl would apply, also apply within any subdirectories... sudo setfacl -Rm user:emby:rx,d:user:emby:rx /media/paulie”

I ran this command: “sudo setfacl -m user:emby:rx /media/paulie”. It works great. Does anyone see any danger in using this? My library address, as I chose it is: /media/paulie/MyMedia/Movies which Emby has no trouble locating.

AudNexus does kick serious butt, however the Audible provider gives a bit more info (genres being the most important one) Google and Hardcover are both awesome for eBooks I have not moved on to my graphic novels/comics yet, will report back when I do

This was back in November 2025? Is there any beta updates that fix this issue?

Luke et al, Can I have your thoughts on my findings please. I really think something funny is going on the the Emby client since my movies played without any issue in Plex and do not in Emby. My summary so far in a few words. Issue: The Emby client for i(Pad)OS/tvOS shows subtitles and chapter information as expected depends on the type of the chapter track. Check it yourself: For an .mp4 container containing audio, video, subtitle(s), and chapter tracks: (WRONG) When the chapter track in an .mp4 container is of type 'Tx3g', the chapter track is considered to be a chapter track AND subtitle track ignoring subtitle language including any other subtitle tracks (but chapter information shows correctly when tapping on 'chapter' in the OSD menu). (CORRECT) If that same chapter track in the same .mp4 container is of type 'Text', the chapter track is considered to be a chapter track (and chapter information shows correctly when tapping on 'chapter' in the OSD menu), and also the subtitle track is considered a subtitle track with respect to the assigned subtitle language. Described behavior is the same for Emby for Apple TV and i(Pad)OS. This .mp4 movie played without any issues in Plex. Subtitle and chapter data did show correctly also in Plex. --- What I did to discover Tx3g/Text chapter track issue I use Subler v1.9.1 from https://subler.org/ to look into an .mp4 container and import/export tracks. I just picked a random movie from my movie archive. The one I picked is one hour and 19 minutes long (original filename and extension: 'Jane Doe - Yes, I Remember It Well (2006) {imdb-tt0472269}.mp4'). It has Dutch subtitles burned in (the movie was recorded long ago from Public TV and converted from VHS cassette to an .mp4 movie). For the sake of simplicity during this test, I renamed it to test.mp4 Below a screenshot of how this movie is presented in Emby for iPadOS. ## The chapter track and Dummy subtitle track To signal Plex and Emby (Dutch) subtitles are already present, I created a very simple file 'Burned-in Dutch Subtitle Dummy.nl.srt' that I import with Subler into the .mp4 container. After imported, this track is called 'Subtitle Track', is assigned 'Dutch' in Subler and Subler shows this imported track as format 'Tx3g'.The contents of the 'Burned-in Dutch Subtitle Dummy.nl.srt' is just text and shown below between "": "1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,000 Burned in Dutch subtitle dummy 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:03,500 " The chapter track was automatically created when digitizing this movie by Elgato Turbo h.264 USB hardware encoding dongle. To convert the chapter data from Tx3g to Text, I did this: Export the chapter track in Subler by selecting the chapter track via File > Export to file test.3.und.txt, Delete the existing chapter track, Import the exported chapter track into the .mp4 container in Subler, Save the .mp4 file. The contents of the exported chapter file 'test.3.und.txt' is shown below between "". "CHAPTER00=00:00:00.000 CHAPTER00NAME=Chapter 1 CHAPTER01=00:22:55.151 CHAPTER01NAME=Chapter 2 CHAPTER02=00:41:18.504 CHAPTER02NAME=Chapter 3 CHAPTER03=00:58:36.457 CHAPTER03NAME=Chapter 4 CHAPTER04=01:19:28.649 CHAPTER04NAME=Chapter 5 " Just to make things less complex, I saved the modified movie file and renamed it back to the original name 'Jane Doe - Yes, I Remember It Well (2006) {imdb-tt0472269}.mp4' before copying it to the Emby movie directory. But I noticed that Subler is dong some magic on its own. I installed MP4Box via brew install gpac. When I export the chapter track info via MP4Box -dump-chap 'path/to/movie/moviename.mp4' I get two different .ttxt files The chapter data contents extracted from the original movie with Tx3g chapter data "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!-- GPAC 3GPP Text Stream --> <TextStream version="1.1"> <TextStreamHeader width="0" height="0" layer="0" translation_x="0" translation_y="0"> <TextSampleDescription horizontalJustification="left" verticalJustification="bottom" backColor="0 0 0 ff" verticalText="no" fillTextRegion="no" continuousKaraoke="no" scroll="None"> <FontTable> <FontTableEntry fontName="Helvetica" fontID="1"/> </FontTable> <TextBox top="0" left="0" bottom="0" right="0"/> <Style styles="Normal" fontID="1" fontSize="13" color="ff ff ff ff"/> </TextSampleDescription> </TextStreamHeader> <TextSample sampleTime="00:00:00.000" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 1</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:22:55.151" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 2</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:41:18.505" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 3</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:58:36.459" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 4</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="01:19:28.651" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 5</TextSample> </TextStream> " The chapter data contents extracted from the modified movie with Text chapter data "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!-- GPAC 3GPP Text Stream --> <TextStream version="1.1"> <TextStreamHeader width="0" height="0" layer="0" translation_x="0" translation_y="0"> <TextSampleDescription horizontalJustification="center" backColor="0 0 0" scroll="None"> <TextBox top="0" left="0" bottom="0" right="0"/> </TextSampleDescription> </TextStreamHeader> <TextSample sampleTime="00:00:00.000" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 1</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:22:55.151" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 2</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:41:18.504" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 3</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="00:58:36.457" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 4</TextSample> <TextSample sampleTime="01:19:28.649" sampleDescriptionIndex="1" xml:space="preserve">Chapter 5</TextSample> </TextStream> " The modified version differs form the original version in that the <TextStreamHeader> is smaller.

Screenshot of both .mp4 in Subler before and after modification. During my tests, I also tried to set the language of the chapter track, for instance to Japanese in the hope it would not show. Unfortunately, that did not have any impact. The time sensitive chapter data kept showing up as a subtitle. Below a sreenshot when the movie starts playing from the beginning. Expected behavior: Subtitle track shows "Burned in Dutch subtitle dummy" at the first 3 seconds at the beginning of the movie. Time sensitive content of chapter ("Chapter 1") track is NOT shown. Left side: WRONG, Right side (GOOD) Screenshot of the chapter info when playing the movie. Left side (WRONG): chapter data has format Tx3g Emby client considers chapter track both as chapter AND subtitle track, regardless of what subtitle languages is set as preference while ignoring displaying the real subtitle track. Right side (GOOD): chapter data has format Text When the chapter data has format Text Emby client recognizes the chapter track as chapter track and contents of the separate Dutch subtitle track is shown as expected. No matter the type of the chapter track, the Emby client shows correctly the different chapters via the OSD menu Can you figure out what is causing this issue in the source code of the Emby client (and please fix it)? Thanks Sare

I have got this issue on IPhone and IPads and it's driving me potty. I have update everything, restated everything and even deleted and restarted the downloads, deleted and reloaded the app, but nothing seems to sort the issue. All the content is stuck on "Ready to Transfer" I will be going on holiday soon and I need to have some content to watch on the plane.

I also noticed my troubles went away when I wasn't downloading torrents directly to my external drive, which I figured out was a SMR Drive, which plays a role, so I setup qbittorrent to download directly to my nvme drive and upon completion it moves the files to the external which reduces the amount of drive activity causing less struggles, I do plan to buy a 22 TB Internal HDD from GoHardDrives to expand my storage and eventually be the sole location for media, although I might just put new stuff on it and leave the usb as is until I can transfer it over to the new drive. But this seems to be working fine now as long as I keep the activity lower on the usb drive

Have you opened 8096 in the os firewall? Can you connect from a browser on another device? Need more info.

Ich habe keine Ahnung, aber ich vermute alphabetisch. Ansonsten merkt er sich üblicherweise das zuletzt, von diesem User, abgespielte.

Hi. There is no longer an unlock available for that platform but you should get five free TV devices. How many do you have?
