Installation   Users in the USA with a Samsung Smart TV can install now from the Samsung App Store.   A Modern App for Modern Times   The interface for this app has been built with HTML, but this is nothing like the web apps you're accustomed to. This has been built purely with modern features that bring a level of performance that wasn't even possible a year ago at this time.

Emby for Android TV New Interface

Version 1.4 of the Android TV app (available soon on Google Play and your Fire TV) now changes the library browsing interface to have "tabs" like the web app and Theater.   You now should be able to quickly get to the different views of each library and choose how that library is displayed when you first enter it. This new presentation should now be the same as most of the other apps - helping users that use apps on multiple platforms be instantly familiar with the interface.
