1.0.20 is available and includes the following updates:

  • Improve direct play support for high bitrate content, including 4K video
  • Update to latest Emby Theater interface

 

Installation

 

Users in the USA with a Samsung Tizen 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. For the nerds out there, that means WebAnimations, WebComponents, Service Workers, Polymer, and on and on.

Rediscover your Content with Recommendations

 

A popular feature from other Emby apps is finally making it's way to Emby Theater.

New Music Interface

 

The app finally has a design that makes sense for music.

Details Gone Vertical

 

A common complaint over the detail screen of the current Emby Theater is that it's pretty but slow to navigate. We went back to the drawing board and decided to take a little inspiration from Android TV. It is now much, much faster to browse through detail screens.

Can you do HTML and JavaScript? Then why not fork the default skin?

Kudos on the update, I remember the lack of a Tizen app being mentioned as a main reason for the older Samsung devices (BD-H6500) never getting an app formally published, will this change now that the Tizen version exists?

I'd love an update. I'm preparing to set up my OTA solution and I'm weighing using Emby vs Plex as my media server. A Samsung app available in Canada would put Emby over the top!
