Is there a way to set a simultaneous connection limit for each user. I share my server with family and a few friends and sometimes I see a couple with 2 or more active streams from different clients under their user and I would like to limit this to 1 connection per user for them. Thanks and keep up the excellent work.

I'll start by thanking the developers for all their time and effort. I have been using Emby in various capacities since the Media Browser days and fully switched over from Media Center about 3 years ago. Emby has come a long way in the time I have been using it. I have a friend that is stuck on Plex even though he constantly complains about them not listening to their user base. This seems to be a widespread issue over there. So thank you guys for listening to us and trying to make our requests a reality. </praise> Now on to my request. I have set default recording settings to start 2 minutes before and 2 minutes after the shows scheduled time. This works fine, however I like to change the ending time to 30-45 minutes after the scheduled end of football and hockey games so if they should go into to overtime that is also recorded. In a browser and from my phone I am able to adjust this but not in the Fire TV app. If you guys could please add a recording settings button in the Fire TV app that would be awesome. Thanks again.

I started this in the previous forum, but I again wanted to plead for the subtitle downloader plugin for MB3. MB Classic and MB Theater would be awesome, but I figure just for MBT would suffice. After living without it for the last few months, I realized how many times I would use the MB2 plugin. I personally don't like subtitles, but the wife does so it's helpful with a few remote clicks to have the subtitle.

It would be good to be able to save the passwords in the AndroidTV application in a similar way to how it can be done in the mobile application ... if the user so decides Thanks

I noticed that there is no song/track info displayed when using Bluetooth and playing music with the Emby Android app. I tried it on two different vehicles and have the same issues. If I use Pandora or other apps I do not have this issue. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Call it OCD but I hate redundant/multiple remote button presses. If your browsing our library looking for something to watch, depending on how you have things set up, sometimes you can be 5-6 levels into the file structure. If you want to go back to the main home screen thats 6 back button presses. I'd say thats 4-5 too many! Any chance of getting a home button like the IOS apps have where its available anywhere you are in the file structure?

When browsing through my library the item limit seems to be capped to 100. Pagination requires me to use the arrows to go to the next page. Is there a way to turn this off, and instead showing a flowing list of items instead without having to switch pages? If not, is it possible to implement an option where you can control the number of items per page, with ideally an option to show everything without pagination?

My Emby Server's SSD bit the bullet last week and since the machine is nearly 5 years old and still on Win7 I decided to update. Since it will have different hardware and a different OS will restoring from backup work? My backup resides on a drive separate from the boot drive and is still in tact but on the new setup I'll be recording to a new 1Tb m.2 drive rather than a separate SSD and there may be some drive letter and other changes too. Also the backup was made under 4.2.0.26 I believe and we're now on Server Version 4.3. Anything special there to consider? TIA Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

Its weird having to hit two buttons to fast forward. Why couldn't it just be the forward and back button? Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Since Plex now has the traditional grid guide on Apple TV (http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/news/plex-grid-view-channel-guide-apple-tv/), can we expect the Emby Apple TV app to have a similar guide soon? The current guide in the ATV app is a little cumbersome to use with its big thumbnails. I do believe this is in the works, but I haven’t heard anything about it for a little while.

I have no idea if its possible or not but it'd be a great feature to have something like what Netflix where as you skip through an episode or movie there is like a live preview of what it'd skip to. I'll attach a picture to show what I'm on about.

Is it possible to have one movie folder not show it's content in the All Movies on the side panel? Have a folder of Classic Movies I don't need showing up there Thanks Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk

When I add a movie to a Playlist, Emby remembers the last Playlist I added something to. But when I add something to a Collection it always defaults to 'New' and I have to pull down the drop list and scroll to the collection I want. If I'm adding a lot of movies to one collection at once, that's a lot of extra clicking. Please change adding to Collection to remember the last used Collection, the way add to Playlist works.

NO REPLY NECESSARY Hi, Hope you're well Thanks for software As title Sometimes my (TV series) files are incorrectly named which means the episode content (i.e. what I'm watching) and overview (i.e. what I'm reading; description/synopsis) don't match. I try to remember to read the next episode overview, triggered 30 seconds before the current episode ends, but this isn't always possible. Please consider giving users access to full episode overviews, without having to stop playback. Aside, if I recall correctly, when I used Plex I could even access some info about the next episode while watching the current episode - I miss that If you're reading this and: a) agree, then please up-vote and/or reply +1, or; disagree, then I'd love to know why? If you have any issues (e.g. questions/queries) happy to help Keep up good work! Yours hopefully

Currently one of the transcoding reasons is Max bitrate exceeds limit. What I want to know as a server admin. Is it because the auto limit detection selected that limit or was it manually selected by the user. Maybe have something like: Max bitrate exceeds limit (Auto) Max bitrate exceeds limit (Manual) or Max bitrate exceeds limit (User) Or something to that effect.

Hi, I have made an Android autoupdate of the Emby App. After that a new login was necessary. Now, I don't see my downloaded files in Emby, but they are still there on phone in the old location. Is there a possibilty to load downloaded files in Emby App? Thanks in advance, Domi Gesendet von meinem SM-N960F mit Tapatalk

"Next Up" is always there, showing up TV show episodes to start watching, but I would like to see it appear automatically only when I finish watching a TV show episode (usually S01E01 or the first ever aired) to continue watching the episode that follows, similar as to how the "Play Next" channel for Android TV operates, which now appears only when something is added to it. if I start watching an episode of another TV show, then the next one to watch should start showing up there as well. The idea is to only display the TV shows I'm watching. For example, "Next Up" is hidden and I start watching the episode 1 of the first season of "Smallville", once that episode finishes, "Next Up" appears automatically displaying episode 2 so I can start watching it from there without having to go inside the TV show. I know some people would like to see it always there so adding an option in settings to be always shown would be great.

Hi there, long time no see! Hoping everyone doing great. After jurialmunkey released Arctic Zephyr 2 skin I' ve started to use my Kodi+Emby setup again. I am running on 18.5 Leia/Windows 10 and 4.1.16 version of the Kodi Add-on. Emby backend is on 4.3.0.30 stable version. When I manually try to update thememedia (for using Tvtunes both script and newly introduced service version.) I got below errors on Kodi log. Both Kodi client and Emby server is on the same LAN. Emby server is accessible via Web browser without any problems. (looks like I don't have firewall issue on server) 2019-12-04 00:46:39.612 T:23528 NOTICE: Emby.emby.core.connection_manager -> testing connection mode 2 with server ServerName 2019-12-04 00:46:39.616 T:23528 NOTICE: Emby.emby.core.connection_manager -> tryConnect url: http://{emby-server}/emby/system/info/public 2019-12-04 00:46:39.679 T:23528 NOTICE: Emby.emby.core.connection_manager -> calling onSuccessfulConnection with connection mode 2 with server ServerName 2019-12-04 00:46:39.741 T:23528 NOTICE: Emby.emby.client -> User is authenticated. 2019-12-04 00:46:39.914 T:1116 NOTICE: Emby.emby.core.ws_client -> Websocket url: ws://{emby-server}/embywebsocket?api_key={emby-token}&device_id=AC262A228CBC4A0E84E0B8691Cxxxxxxx 2019-12-04 00:46:39.921 T:11020 NOTICE: EMBY.hooks.monitor -> -->[ q:monitor/LoadServer ] 2019-12-04 00:46:39.923 T:11020 NOTICE: EMBY.hooks.monitor -> --[ post capabilities/ab830a458c254fc2b52e67dxxxxxxxxx ] 2019-12-04 00:46:39.943 T:23528 NOTICE: EMBY.setup -> ---<[ setup ] 2019-12-04 00:46:39.971 T:18592 NOTICE: EMBY.library -> --->[ library ] 2019-12-04 00:46:39.978 T:1116 NOTICE: Emby.emby.core.ws_client -> --->[ websocket ] 2019-12-04 00:46:40.263 T:21376 NOTICE: EMBY.entrypoint.service -> [ onNotification/plugin.video.emby/ServerOnline ] 2019-12-04 00:46:40.667 T:20600 ERROR: Window Translator: Can't find window videolibrary 2019-12-04 00:46:41.671 T:12908 NOTICE: script.tv.show.next.aired --> Update complete 2019-12-04 00:46:42.241 T:18592 NOTICE: EMBY.database -> [emby] 1 rows updated. 2019-12-04 00:46:43.837 T:20600 NOTICE: Previous line repeats 11 times. 2019-12-04 00:46:43.837 T:20600 ERROR: Window Translator: Can't find window videolibrary 2019-12-04 00:46:44.168 T:18592 NOTICE: EMBY.helper.wrapper -> Processing None 2019-12-04 00:46:44.174 T:18592 NOTICE: EMBY.library -> --[ retrieve changes ] 2019-12-03T21:14:17z 2019-12-04 00:47:33.699 T:20600 ERROR: Window Translator: Can't find window videolibrary 2019-12-04 00:47:38.474 T:10384 WARNING: Unable to determine channel type.

Hello, with the "Add User to Session" feature ( https://github.com/MediaBrowser/plugin.video.emby/wiki/add-user-to-emby-session ) a normal User (no admin, cant manage Server) is able to see all other Users who are on the Emby.-Server. For privacy reasons: Is there a way to prevent that?

@@TeamB since you've redesigned the menu entry points (which is really nice), there are no Channels of plugins listed anymore. For me that would be the Recording Channel of a live tv plugin.

Well I started this in the windows server forum and it was suggested I make a feature request... http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/21793-new-update-issues/ I love Emby, but not a fan of the new massive OSD that show everytime you move the mouse WHILE watching a show/movie. I realize some folks may like this new feature so I was curious about having an option to toggle between the old style and new. I use the web client with firefox BTW... Anyway, what do you guys think?

Hey, the redesigned Play Store does not include a What’s New section apparently. Is there any way this could included in the bottom row of the app or somewhere in the settings screen? I look at it every time there is an update. I suppose I could come here instead but right now the Release Notes sticky seems to be a version behind? Ugh, I'm dumb. I thought I was in the testing area. Anyway any thoughts on this?

Is it possible? It'd be nice to be able to check the status of scheduled recordings after the fact. TIA Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk
