What we missing on the mobile apps for iOS and Android is "Pinch-to-Zoom" for photos.

Hi, I use emby mostly for TV shows, while the skip forward by 10 seconds does alright for skipping intros on some shows, almost all have chapter markers at the end of the intro. It would be much nicer to be able to have skip chapter buttons (forward/back) especially if it meant I could (optionally?) replace the existing "next/last episode" buttons with chapter buttons as skip chapter would still be able to skip to the next episode once end credits come up. It would be nice to be able to change this on web player and mobile player controls.

It would be useful for us folks that have many ota recorded movies that we can create a simple mplayer edl file to skip parts so don't have to keep reaching for the remote to skip ads. These files are very simple to do at least they look like they are. https://kodi.wiki/view/Edit_decision_list

Hallo, ich bin nun schon seit geraumer Zeit ein zufriedener Nutzer des Emby Media Servers und den dazugehörigen Apps und habe nun auch mal einen Forum Account eröffnet. Und zwar würde ich es sehr begrüßen, wenn es bald eine Funktion gäbe, mit der sich weiche Liedübergänge (Crossfade), bei Musik und Co. einstellen ließe. Ich finde das einfach eine sehr angenehme Möglichkeit um Musik unterbrechungsfrei durchlaufen zu lassen. Villeicht sehen das ja noch andere so und die Funktion wird bald in zukünftigen Versionen noch hinzugefügt? Würde mich echt freuen. LG Flo PS Es wäre nett, wenn sich jemand bereit erklären würde und meinen Vorschlag, auch bei den offiziellen Funktionswünschen, die leider nur auf Englisch verfasst sind, mit vorbringen könnte.

Its a great idea, for my case, I have 2 kids and I wont they had acces to all channels, so, maybe if you can add the personalized m3u list for each user will be great..I think your app rocks but there is a lot of issues with the capability and options, for example the Password for some content or some rated content,... for people like me with kids in home is hard to control the access to some movies, tv channels or whatever... thanks

Hi there. Will i be able to add subscen to emby., Opensubtitles are blocked where i am. and i can't get any of the other sites to work are there are no subtitles in my langue Br. Jacke

Can we get the option for new released movies by released date? Not latest movies that have been uploaded.

Ability to set timeout that the progress bar fades away. If this exists already please point me to it

Hi everyone, I'm italian so I hope that my english is understandable. I'm writing here because I would need a way to communicate with users through emby, the reason is that I have a lot of users requesting some films/TV series and I have to tell them if I won't add something, that I'm going to restart the server, and so on... I tried to do it myself because I studied C# but I didn't find instructions on how to modify the client GUI, I think that only Emby developers can help me with that. I hope that you will take in consideration this aspect, thanks.

Would like to request that the information added manually into the overview sections metadata is presented in paragraphs on the individual pages. The overviews end up in what can be long single blocks of text, even when manually entered in paragraphs in the ‘edit metadata’ links.

It would be nice for emby to accept paragraph formating: Hoping for: Jack Stratton's back is up against the wall. He's broke, kicked off the force, and his new bounty hunting business has slowed to a trickle. With no money coming in, Jack's license to carry suspended, and no good job prospects on the horizon, Jack's got it tough. He thinks things are turning around when Alice (aka Replacement) gets a lucrative job setting up a home data network. That is, until he discovers it's for a handsome, jet-setting software tycoon. The "boy billionaire" as Jack grudgingly refers to him, takes a liking to computer-savvy Alice. Jealous, Jack thinks life can't get any worse, but when the computer program the CEO invented becomes the key tool in an international data heist, things turn deadly. In this digital age of hackers, spyware, and cyber terrorism--data is more valuable than gold. The thieves plan to steal the keys to the digital kingdom and with this much money at stake, they'll kill for it. Can Jack and Alice stop the pack of ruthless criminals before they can Data Jack?

It would be nice to see progress of an individual library scan (Go to Library, click the more option and select Refresh Metadata) in the Running Tasks on the Dashboard.

I'm using alot of theme video plugin and I can't see them on Xbox one

It would be nice to have an option to repack a file (leaving video stream intact) and convert audio if needed. For example, repack MKV to MP4. Now, If you select keep original quality, video is still reencoded. This has the advantage of being faster and if the source video is HEVC HDR, HDR is not lost.

By default Emby connects all libraries for suggestions and trailers. It would be nice to have an option at the library or server level to simply turn off cross library suggestions and trailers. I've got separate libraries setup for adult content and kids content, but the suggestions and trailers don't care. When i'm viewing the kids libraries, I see R rated suggestions and trailers. Understand that this can be controlled via user accounts, but on a shared account (for simplicity since it doesn't require constant logging out and back in on the main tv), it would be better to have control at the library and/or server level. Being able to set parental controls at the library level would be good too.

It would be nice if we could change order of people in metadata editor same like we can do with libraries on home screen.

Per request from Luke, I am breaking up the suggestions from this thread: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/80816-cumulative-suggestions-from-lighthammer-end-of-2019/ I'll add additional information for each topic as needed Edit Navigation Bar Another potentially harder feature I would like to see is the ability to remove or add more options to the navigation bar. A strong usecase would be to add TV Series, Movies and Music to the navigation bar. Additionally, you should have the ability to hide items added to the navigation bar (such as the aforementioned TV Series, Movies and Music). I envision this to be a harder to implement feature as a new interface would probably need to be made for this.

Movie trailers are great, but it would be nice to have tv trailers too. This would be especially useful to see what new shows are premiering for Fall and Spring.

Per request from Luke, I am breaking up the suggestions from this thread: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/80816-cumulative-suggestions-from-lighthammer-end-of-2019/ I'll add additional information for each topic as needed BIGGEST 2020 WISH - USER GROUPS For those coming from the Windows NT environments and environments that borrow from this practice, you're probably very familiar with User Groups. User Groups is something that's VERY overdue for Emby. Essential I feel Emby Server Owners / Managers need the ability to assign users to given user groups to be given at least the following: - Administration Panel Rights - Library / Channel Access Rights - Library Management Rights - Transcoding Rights - Remote / Local Streaming Rights - Device Rights - Camera Upload Access - Download Access - Hide from Login Screen Note to Admins: While a topic on User Groups appears to exist: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/23204-fr-user-groups/?hl=%2Buser+%2Bgroups This appears to be a very different sort of user groups then that thread. As stated, this intended to be the user group management similar to the Windows NT and/or Active Directory Services. The post closest to this thread that is similar appears to be this thread: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/45623-user-groups/page-2?hl=+user%20+groups The topic has been stale with no major input on design and thus this thread. Please merge the threads if merited, but a fresh discussion on this topic appears to be in order.

Hi. I would like to suggest a feature, to report errors to the serverowner. The report could have a function to drop-down select what is wrong/missing with a title. The error codes could be an Emby predetermined (dropdown/selectable) list with e.g. top 5/10 errors that one could expect from a title, such as; A general subtitle issue, A general synchronisation issue, Title not working issue etc. Or better yet; The error codes could be written by the admin/server owner. And last but not least, errors should be delived into the administration interface under alerts. The admin can then investigate further. With this, I only hope to spark an idea, as I have thousands of titles, and any help from my family and friends to discover and correct errors easily, would be appriciacted /Ronnie

Can you show what version a user is playing so admins can tell easily if they are playing a 4K or HD version?

Add a catogery that you have Stand up comedians You select the comedian to see all videos and you have all content downside its like tv shows but instead searching for the shows, you search for the comedian

I currently have 846 feature films and 76 short films. With a collection of this size a binary favourite/not favourite system isn't really all that helpful. I'd much rather be able to give films a rating from 0-100, or 0.0-10.0, and also have that as a sorting option.

I just converted from Plex (Plex pass member) to Emby because it seems to be a much better product, specially accessing remote media. One request I would make is that it became convenient in Plex client that I can map a menu item in the side panel to another server (ie. Live TV) Meaning, the client would access multiple servers just by a single menu click without having to switch servers. Keep up the great work! Thanks

This has been requested by me, and others in the past. It has never been done, and I can't figure out why. I have a library of over 5000 movies and it is annoying when most of my suggestions are of movies I've already watched. 'More like this' section should be unwatched movies. 'Suggestions' section should be unwatched movies - just like the 'Latest Movies' section is. It should at least be an option, if not the default.
