Samsung TV APP

Hello,

 

My TV model is: UE32H6400 and I have been running the community app version 2.2.2 for couple months now with no issue at all. 

First of all I was excited to read that now the app is available in the official samsung store for users in UK and I am now running version 0.109 at the same time.

Its very handy that I didn't had to delete the community app and have them both installed, as some problems I have with version 0.109 are non existent on 2.2.2

 

Those in detail: 

 

1) I have noticed when I am running version 0.109, from time to time when I am browsing through my library, the server app on my dedicated windows pc crashes and I have to manually re-start it (only the app, not the PC).

Maybe that's a server issue as I have also noticed that it happens after upgrading to 3.2.36.0.

 

2) Version 2.2.2 starts 3D movies just fine as long as you have configured each movie properly through the metadata manager menu -in my case it's the HSBS option- so you don't have to manually choose this with your remote control.

I can't seem to be able to run any 3D movie with version 0.109

 

3) In version 0.109, when a movie is playing I don't seem to be able to view the progress bar when I pause the movie. I also can't choose a specific chapter or use the playback bar to move further ahead onto another segment of the movie. Fast forward buttons on the remote seem to be ok.

 

4) I would love to have an option in version 0.109 to increase the subtitles size if possible.

 

All my movies are MP4 with AAC 5.1 audio, 2000 to 2500 bitrate H264 encoding so direct play works flawless on both TV apps and on my iPhone app as well.

Another really nice thing I have noticed is that the video playback looks crispier and sharper through the 0.109 app comparing it to the 2.2.2 version.

 

Now that I am thinking of it, the only thing differently I did when I have installed the new 0.109 app, is that I've used the PIN option to connect to my EMBY server. 

I can also try disconnect and connect manually with my local IP just to see if that makes any difference for the above issues although I don't think it would be related.

 

All those are minor problems of course. I am happy having both apps installed, I just thought to share my testing results with you guys for future improvements.

 

Thanks again for all your hard work, EMBY as always is awesome!!
