Emby for Apple TV 1.7.3 - Multi-Color Logos, Sorting Playlists and Collections
Emby for Apple TV 1.7.3 adds many new features that improve the user experience in powerful to subtle ways.

Support Multi-Color Logos based on Theme in Use
Emby for Apple TV now supports both light and dark sets of logos. The app will automatically choose which logos to use based on the theme in use.
Here are a couple screen shots, showing this:

Emby's built in guide service for Live TV already provides both sets of logos for most channels. If using a different guide source, the logos can optionally be manually changed to take advantage of this new feature in our Apple TV client app.

Support for Sorting Playlists and Collections
Emby for Apple TV now supports sorting both Playlists and Collections. For music, you can sort by popular categories such as: Artist, Album, Son & Year.
Here's a couple screen shots showing this:

Support for Dynamic Data Driven Tabs
Navigational Tabs displayed at the top of different media screens are now dynamically created based on the data itself. For example, if the media isn't associated with any tags, genre, playlists or collections, the navigational tab would not include those items.

Support for Server Wake on LAN
Emby for Apple TV now supports the Wake on LAN feature of the Emby Server. You can now go green by allowing your server to sleep when not in use, knowing you can wake it up from the same local network using Emby for Apple TV.

Here's a screen shot of this in action:

Various Video Playback Improvements

Any chance we can get the shared folder sorting functionality we have on Android on the apple tv build? When going into a shared folder library (both movies and series) it doesn't show any genres, shows, movies, etc. Tabs at the top or any filters. I have two shared folder libraries and it makes it pretty annoying to browse on my apple tv.

Hi, yes we are working on getting it feature equivalent to our other apps. Thanks.
