Hi Paul you are right, Emby is transcoding the file/stream. The thing is that Emby is doing exacting what it should be doing See below, What I think is happening is that Emby is evaluating the playback capabilities based on the "standard" of codec (wav, flac, ac3, dts..) and container type (.wav, .m4a, mka, etc.) The thing is you have to put them together Which Emby does well. Emby probably uses rules like below to determine what needs to be transcoded (which is deciding based on what it thinks the client device can play or stream) the general "standards" Container = "m4a", AudioCodec = "aac,alac,", VideoCodec = "", Type =Audio Container = "flac", AudioCodec = "flac", VideoCodec = "", Type = Audio and so on Container = Wav, MKA, etc Emby does a great job doing the above. So IMO nothing seems broken per say.. @Luke@pwhodges @Pietrogramma Don't we really just need to know if there is container we can put the content in Emby would evaluate it and not transcode it. (My thought is on windows any there is never a need to transcode a music based on codec or container, windows os has great support. Where you may want it is because of bandwidth considerations) Container = "?????", AudioCodec = "DTS", (and to cover other flavors AC3, EAC3, XXXX,XXXX,) VideoCodec = "", Type = Audio -vicpa BTW I hacked the container definition for "m4a" adding to the AudioCodec ="aac,alac,ac3,eac3", as workaround on the client I use. Satisfied with results. Obviously not the way to do it

Luke, I tried that before I came to the forums, and it didn't work (as we now expect it not to work where fanart doesn't have any thumbs). I got all the thumbs fixed, though. A few fanart had new thumbs that weren't available when I added the show originally, the rest I made my own, except one. That one fanart had an image for, newly approved yesterday, but wouldn't download in Emby (neither Web nor ET), perhaps because it was too new to too few downloads? Maybe new fanart only shows to logged in fanart.tv users? Dunno. I downloaded it manually and then set it as the thumb. I'm good on the images now. Still have the weirdness with the tv show library data provider options being un-checkable in ET for Linux, and also the oddity of being at 3.0.19 instead of 3.0.20 as windows is. Might force uninstall ET for Linux, the reinstall it, if you think that may help any.

Hi, we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

Hi Luke I have channel logos for all the above channels but on the home screen and on now various not all change in line with what is bring shown on that channel and I would really like to keep it as a permanent logo

OK we'll look into it. Thanks.

HI, what do you mean by "keep" ? Emby doesn't get rid of channel logos once it has them.

HI, is this a DLNA related question? Emby apps already have options for this.

What version of the plugin and server?

Hi there, can you please provide a specific example? How to Report a Problem Thanks.

Hi, it is transcoding due to the truehd audio not being supported by macOS. Does that answer your question?

Hi, have you tried Chrome to see how that compares?

HI, what you could try to do is refresh the metadata on your existing series and see if that helps pull in images.

I thought that possibly the LG TV playback problem may be related to the network connection via WiFi. Speedtest showed around 90 Mb/s up and down via WiFi but I decided to try with a wired Ethernet connection instead. Speedtest with Ethernet was about the same, 95 Mb/s each way but unfortunately Emby will still not reliably skip forward or back during active recording. It usually just jumps back to the start of the recording. I am using the 1.0.42 Emby client.

What did you add to the collections?

HI, we have never extracted this information from the file name. The artist either needs to be tagged in embedded metadata within the file, or you need to manually specify in the metadata editor.

@AloySutagaruplease let us know if this helps. Thanks !

Hi @Punchcan you please provide a specific example? What exactly was lost? What exactly is not being generated?

Hi. Can you try searching for our standard android app (Just "Emby" on Amazon and "Emby for Android on Google) on the same device's app store and see how that compares? Thanks.

Hi the error in the log seems to suggest invalid xml. I would make sure you've specified the direct link to the xml file and not a dropbox web page.

HI there, ,just about everything is clickable. Can you please provide an example of what you mean? thanks.

Hi, how did you get the access in the first place?

Yessir! When I looked a tad harder.

HI, what do you need multiple keys for?

Hi, we're looking into it. Thanks.

HI, were you able to locate where it is now?
