Agreed. I recently started having the same playback issues on all my devices as well as all of my other Emby users. Non-stop constant buffering. At first I thought it was a network issue on my end but that is clearly not the case here since other people from around the world are reporting in on similar playback problems. The thing that gets me is the admins on this site try to make us feel like we are seeing ghosts or something when we report these obvious faults. It's not like we have time to be coming on here to lie about something so petty. Then there is the usual copy and paste replies such as "we're looking into it" that just ends up dragging on for months and then years with no resolution.

The odds are per the dozens of other topics Auto is failing to return useable network query info back to the server and is defaulting to the hardcoded value assigned to every client. But as mentioned at a minimum the ffmpeg log will be needed for a specific example. If you know yours and the connecting party's network can handle the higher remote bitrates you will have two options Set the client to a higher quality setting besides Auto or Set the override for Auto on the server for the user in User setup

Still not working on 1.6.3. I've tried per user timeout, and setting global limit to 1 minute and testing with a user that doesn't have a per user limit. When the limit or timeout is active I can't play on Android, but I can play on web. When playing on web I get notifications on android that my limit has been reached, but web playback continues. I don't have any excluded clients: Emby web version 4.9.3.0 Limit reached is showing in logs: In case there's something more I need to do — my process for updating has been to stop emby, delete old watching eye DLL, move new DLL to plugins folder, start emby. LMK if there's any other settings I should check, or any other tests you'd like me to do.

That's an interesting idea. But, from reading other posts about external links, it seems that Emby are generally not in favor of this because of potential security risks. Would still be nice to have though. Perhaps a variation of this would be to have an internal links option, to be able to direct people straight to the relevant Emby server page that the banner may be promoting. I have no idea if this poses the same security issues???

Would love to hear if anyone else has tried and can confirm the fix.

It would be great to be able to add a clickable link, for example a PayPal or Buy Me Coffee link.

Thank you very much, I'm looking for the plugin and it works.

Write something in this setting in Emby to activate, then use the plugin.

Hello, I have been looking for a plugin like this to display messages. I have installed version 4.10.0.5 beta, but unfortunately, nothing is appearing. Could you help me figure out why the messages aren't showing up?

You could turn off auto and select a manual connection speed. It would also help if the community knew what device it's happening on. I know in my experience with crApple TV's they are overly strict and limit the connection to 3mbit, regardless of what your connection is capable of.

i posted a lot of details about this issue in this thread

Correct. Latest Beta version is v2.1.43.

I turned off all metadata lookups for recordings because they’re usually inaccurate. I’ve noticed that the tvshow.nfo files still contain random data for shows that don’t match, so I’m wondering where this information is coming from with metadata disabled. For example, Zap2it no longer exists, and Cuomo Prime Time was canceled years ago. The guide data appears to be correct, and the posters are correct. Basically, the files are filled with unrelated data that doesn’t match what was actually recorded. Shouldn't this data come from the guide? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <tvshow> <uniqueid type="gracenote">22804235</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="zap2it">EP04428600</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tvdb">353302</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="imdb">tt7317360</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="official website">https://www.cnn.com/shows/cuomo-prime-time</uniqueid> <title>Cuomo</title> </tvshow> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <tvshow> <uniqueid type="gracenote">31148748</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="zap2it">EP06033210</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tvdb">403170</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="eidr">10.5240/AA94-1FC4-BFBF-6394-6460-8</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="imdb">tt14681596</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="official website">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYFLCXSQ</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tmdb">125909</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tv maze">55415</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="wikidata">Q125988942</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="wikipedia">Batman:_Caped_Crusader</uniqueid> <title>Batya</title> </tvshow> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <tvshow> <uniqueid type="gracenote">28133725</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="zap2it">EP05264281</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tvdb">74281</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="fan site">https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/hignfy/</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="imdb">tt0098820</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="official website">https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006mkw3</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="tmdb">797</uniqueid> <uniqueid type="x (twitter)">haveigotnews</uniqueid> <title>Have I Got News For You</title> <mpaa>M 15+</mpaa> </tvshow>

I may not have the latest on what's going on though

Ya it's not being updated though, only the beta channel is. I would assume eventually you will only see the one, but many people paid for ATV so it's still there.

You mean the other app would be the standard app? But both are shown in the app store.

@ebr will have to correct me, but I believe what I saw is that they can't have 2 apps in the Android store so the older ATV app can only be updated in the beta section of the store for now or sideloaded. You may have to sign up for the beta if you want to automate things for now.

I use NGINX to do the following (other RP’s should work too). I use Certbot and Let's Encrypt for SSL (TLS v1.2+) on custom port(s). I also use geo-blocking via MaxMind (free version). I ignore (444=drop) direct IP# requests (the DDNS name must be used for access). I use a custom port (5 digits) that hackers usually don’t scan. (And yes, my 85-year-old mother can use this easily.) List of assigned ports. With this setup, it’s hard for anyone to access my LAN or Emby without explicit instructions.

If I'm reading the Beta thread correctly, the last released build (2.1.23) was late 2024. A year later and 19 builds later, why would you not release it? It would be nice for us users to get all those improvements.

Fantastic, thanks! Who knew?!?!

Found it - for some reason there the option under streaming ==> advanced ==> limit single channel streaming per tuner had been ticked for some reason. Untick and I can watch multiple channels at once to my hearts content. Phew

Okay, I think the YT trailers were fixed in 2.1.28 You can either sign up for the beta channel to get it from the store or just download the apk from the link below and sideload it.

Very simple little plugin. Customize the new banner feature in the Emby server beta. Cycle between messages - No a live cycle so requires reload of mainpage. Show Movie, Show, Episode, Video count. Show latest movie and/or TV show. Add Emojis (for what ever reason ) Can look into adding more if people want it. ONLY WORKS WITH EMBY SERVER BETA!! Can be found at: yocksers/EmbyBanner.

2.1.23g on the Shield. How did you get 2.1.43?
