Hey, I tried to use the "Playstate" Filter from within a directory, but it does not work. It does not matter if I try on Android, Windows or Web, the behaviour is wrong on all platforms. When I select "Played" every entry will be hidden. If I select "Unplayed" no entry will be hidden. And yes there are entries fully marked as watched and some not even watched once. @LukeThis is definitely a bug, a dev has to fix Best Regards DragonSkills99

"too many errors" failures when stereo/multi-channel sent to mono.
wmichael3 posted a topic in General/Windows
Something that I noticed recently that you may already be aware of: on a Google TV dongle, if I configure the device to send Bluetooth audio to a mono Bluetooth device, Emby fails all video playback with the "too many errors, giving up" message. It is consistent with Live TV, ripped movies, recorded TV. Probably everything I tried was Dolby Digital 5.1. I tried both Direct Play and transcoding, but it didn't matter. I was doing this to get at least ok sound from a old computer monitor I was repurposing as a guest room TV. The monitor has horrible sound. Anyway, I then replaced the mono device (a Nest Mini) with a stereo Bluetooth device, (JBL Charge) and everything worked perfectly. As that was a fix, I didn't poke around further. Other Android video apps, such as Netflix, Prime Video, successfully play back on the mono speaker. I tried Auto and Downmix to Stereo in Emby audio settings, disabling all surround sound in the Google TV, and nothing worked for Emby. The behavior is identical between the Emby for Android and Emby for Android TV apps. I didn't grab logs because I'm happy to just use the stereo Bluetooth speaker as my own fix (it sounds a lot better), but thought I'd report it on the offhand chance you didn't already know. I'd guess that most Bluetooth speakers are stereo, as are all headphones, so likely not a big issue for the vast majority of users. I searched for this for just a minute but nothing popped up that seemed similar. Thanks! -
I cannot find my original post in my notifications or else's where so I sum up again. @Lukeyou wrote that it will be fixed with the next update that's not the case. the opposite. I'm sure nobody has even used a tablet with mouse for 30min. otherwise you would realize very fast that the emby is not working on basic functionalities - you can't see the mouse therefore you can't use it. but if you park in the middle or other wrong places the overly is not hiding. it's really a joke, for +1 year now - there's no screensaver with paused videos. also +1 year - sometimes the video plays somehow in the background but you can't bring it up not even via notifications so you have to pause via notocicatiins close the notification and start emby again. what ux design is that? - play positions are not sent to server while pausing. so continue on another device brings you to the beginning of your previous session

Play as Audio Only/Continue Playing W/ Screen Locked (mobile app)
tmurphy2792 posted a topic in Feature Requests
I did a quick search and didn't see any requests like this, so hopefully this is not a duplicate. The situation that lead to this request was primarily relating to podcasts, but I'm sure there are other situations and use cases for this functionality. Background: I started a new podcast a friend recommended, said podcast is actually a video podcast rather than audio. It seems to work fine and all, but when I go to listen on my mobile device (Android phone) using the Emby app, because it's a video I'm locked into playing it as a video. If I lock my screen it stops the playback, if I minimize the app to go to another app it only stays playing if I keep it in the picture in picture mode with the video still on screen somewhere. For the first situation I can use the lock controls button and just leave my screen running to drain down my battery, but for the second situation it's kinda obnoxious to have that PiP window up. Request Version 1 (in my mind this is more ideal): Enable a playback option (maybe under quality) to force it to an audio only stream through transcoding. Would have the added benefit of saving data usage on the mobile device as well. Request Version 2 (more basic, probably easier to achieve?): Enable a setting or something to where videos can keep playing on the mobile app even if the screen is locked or the app is minimized to the background. -
Subtitles do not show up, if multiple languages are chosen
Charliexyx posted a topic in General/Windows
I am from Germany. English audio is not preferred but a little bit possible, for subtitles english is great. If I have foreign Audio (e.g. Japanese), I would like to use german, or if not available, english subs. Therefore I select subtitle options like this: If I do, one Series (German Audio, German forced subs) works perfect. But Bartender does not. It has Japanese Audio and German as well as English subs, but it selects neither: If I remove "English" from the preferred Sub languages, it correctly selects German. I would like to select both because I also have series with english subs only. Is there any Option to fix this?

I have upgraded my two Emby servers to the latest available beta version 29. The problem I have now is that it does not allow me to have both in the Emby application. When I make the connection to one and then the second, the first one disappears from the list. If I add the first server again, the second one disappears. I have tried to do it through the URL I use and also with the local IPs and it happens both times. with the stable version I could have all the Emby servers I wanted in the server list, but here I can't.

same happen in Android TV

When I play a song or a playlist the app hangs when I go into the now playing/play queue screen. If multiple songs are in the queue the app will play about 3-4 songs before it crashes and playback ceases. I am able to play media from my Android TV and web browser without any issues. Please let me know if you need additional details. Thank you! (I love Emby) ---- Server Version: Version 4.9.0.26 beta (Premiere) App Version: 3.4.11 Phone: Pixel 6 Pro Android Version: 14

Subtitles show fine on phone but don't show up casting to Chromecast
rynethejewels posted a topic in Android
I have subtitles turned on for different shows I watch if necessary. An example is 3 Body Problem has a lot of subtitles in it. At least in the episodes I've watched. When I play it on my phone I can see them fine and switch to other subtitle options all showing as expected. If I cast to my Chromecast no subtitles appear on screen for any title that I happen to be watching. I turned on logs but not sure if it needs more time to populated because nothing is there including the folder within android that the website recommends checking. Happy to provide screenshots of necessary but at this point in time I can only show screenshots of proofs that they show on my phone and a picture of my TV to show they aren't there but I assumed that wasn't great for narrowing down the issue. -
Bad AV1 experience (Direct Play) on Emby android and MacOS application
ziga.zajc007 posted a topic in Android
Watching AV1 videos on Emby applications (Android and MacOS) without server encoding (Direct Play) is really bad. Playing AV1 videos works really smooth in browsers on the same devices (Samsung Galaxy S20 and MacBook Pro with i7-8850H). -
I would like to +1 this issue. I have the bluray collection of Big Bang Theory (Remuxed for quality reasons), and for some reason Season 3 was only formatted in VC1 with AC3 5.1 instead of the usual H.264 with DTS-HD MA 5.1 the rest of the bluray seasons have. Currently it's the only season I can't enjoy because of the choppy framerate. I don't know if it would be possible to fix or find some way to get VC1 content to play correctly with/without transcoding (direct play is preferable).

Good morning, I'm relatively new to Emby. I am encountering the problem that I cannot find/download subtitles for a certain series via the Emby app on my Google TV or via the Emby app on my Android tablet/phone, but it works fine via the web version of Emby. My setup: -Qnap with Emby Server 4.8.3.0 installed in container station -Emby premium account -OpenSubtitles setup correctly in both the Open Subtitles settings and in the library settings from the series and movies. -Open Subtitles VIP member -Automatic download with Sonarr/Radarr/SabNzbd As mentioned, the subtitles work well when I go to the web version of Emby (http://*****:8096/web/index.html#!/home), but the subtitles do not work via the apps. What am I missing? TheChief

Hallo Gemeinde, Mir ist aufgefallen, dass nur noch auf meinem FireTv Stick mehr als ein Genre beim ausgewälten Film angezeigt wird. Gerade auf Mobilgeräten war es schon nice direkt auf die Genres "klicken" zu können statt sich umständlich durchs Menü zu hangeln.

Hello, I use Ugoos AM8 ( uncertified android box ) as my main client for Emby and I use the Emby app in google play store. The AM8 direct plays everything in Emby and everything in smooth and great except for VC1 content which is the only issue, although it plays in directplay it is not smooth and very slow and juddering. Using Kodi as an external players fixes the issue. @Lukecan you please look this up? Thanks

perhaps this already exists and I haven't found it? There is an Android app that allows one to WiFi remote control iTunes/Music, locally. It's called Retune. If one is running iTunes as their music "server" locally on a Mac, you can remote control within the WiFi range. It is fairly simple in that allows previous/next song, mute and volume control, within iTunes. It allows you to see the library, history and up next. Since Apple f'kd up iTunes with the "update" to Music, many have dropped it. I only use Emby for music playback. Since iTunes/Music is part of the OS and Emby is a 3rd party, perhaps this isn't possible? But it sure would be handy when playing music on the home system to have a Android remote with these features. IE: dinner in and hard rock comes on and I'd like to skip to the next tune without getting up to go to the server Mac.

Hi, i am having a peculiar problem with my current setup and was hoping to get some help with it. This problem in present in all emby clients that i have tried (android, windows, webapp) My setup is as follows - 1. emby running on UNRAID server - this is on my local network and i usually access this without https (with its ip) as i have not configured a ssl certificate for local access. i can not connect to this servers public domin name on my local network as my router does not support loopback and i need to use a vpn to circumvent this. 2. emby running on OpenMediaVault server - this is a remote server that i would like to access via its public domain name. i can do so if i go to its domain directy emby.example.com. This server is behind a CG NAT and is connected to a VPS via tailscale network. I am running nginxproxymanager on the vps to reverse proxy this and as stated i can connect to the domian directly. 3. i cant use https://app.emby.media to access my local network hence i use http://app.emby.media 4. when i first set up remote server on http://app.emby.media , i can connect to it and play my media without any problem. however when i logout or change servers the webapp does not let me connect to the remote server again. anytime i clink on the remote server to login it instead opens the local servers login page. the only way i can login to my remote server again is if i again add it as a new server. 5. the same problem exist across emby apps.

Hello everyone, I'm a new emby user since a week or two. But there is a problem that keeps occuring. When a streamed a video to my chromecast it showed subtitles, but this was only the first day. Now when I try to stream the same movie (or other) it doesn't show any subtitles. When I pauze the video on mobile when it shows a subtitle and than stream it, it will show that sentence for a split second and nothing after. Context: - I run my emby server on a synology - I use opensubtitles as automatic source - self added subtitles are having the correct naming (showed at the ? in emby) - I have searched the forum but didn't come across some solution Thanks for helping.

Android TV I have a photo screensaver that comes up after 5min of inactivity. The screensaver comes up fine when Emby is left on a non-playback screen (such as the home screen or item details screen). However, if a TV show is paused, the screensaver NEVER comes on. (If you have the auto-logoff feature enabled then that will eventually allow the screensaver to appear, but setting that to the lowest option of 30min would be pretty annoying) This is necessary because 1) I like seeing my screensaver and I often leave playback paused 2) in order for my TV to auto power-off after an hour it needs Emby to report that it's idle I see two possible solutions: 1) After X minutes (maybe default to 10 but provide a setting), Emby will report that it's idle so that the screensaver can appear. Playback will not end so that closing the screensaver allows easy resuming. 2) Exit playback automatically after X minutes. If the screensaver is set to 5min then it would appear after X + 5 minutes automatically. (This is less ideal than #1 for several reasons, but if it's significantly easier then it's probably good enough)

After years of using Kodi with Embyforkodi next gen I'm now using the Emby app for Android (v3.3.01) on my Shield TV for about a week or so. I must say, I love the Horizontal version but there are a few things that looks like a bug or is not working correctly. - When selecting the photo library I only see all folders with my photos but no options like suggestions, labels etc. - There is no option for sorting and there is no text under the photo folders that shows me what is in the folders. In vertical mode these options are all available. I hope these options can also become available in horizontal mode. - It looks like the sort order in the app setting start screen doesn't work like it was set. I have set latest media before resume watching but resume watching is always the first I see. Restarting the app doesn't fix this. Thanks.

I am using the Emby Server app on my Android phone and connecting to it using the Emby app on my LG TV. However when I try to play the content, I get the "No compatible streams found error". Also, in DLNA when I try to play the video it shows the error "Your device is disconnected". embyserver.txt

Android TV app, Nvidia Shield, Android 11, app v2.0.98g I noticed intermittent media playback stutter/pause since I cancelled the premiere subscription and went with the app unlock instead, as the premier options aren't needed. The stutter never happened while using premier. The app playback, subtitles, layout settings are the same as before. I'm not sure what is causing this stutter. Is it a bug with the unlock feature or the app version? It's almost as the app thinks it's still locked with the 1 minutes of free playback. Then the media plays for a few minutes then pauses again. This behavior continues throughout playback. I have sent logs through the app because this version doesn't allow for downloading logs. Sideloading a different version doesn't allow playback without a premiere subscription. My Internet is more than sufficient. Please assist.

I have a Emby server on Windows with port 8098 and a Nginx server before it with port 2345, they are on same machine then I install Emby Android app on my mobile phone and configure server address: http://192.168.51.39:2345, and everything is ok But after I restart Emby Android app, the server address has been changed to http://192.168.51.39:8098 automatically !!

Reading the activities on the dashboard are a litlle hard when they are not fully visible on a phone. The lines should be fully readable on all devices. Hope this can be improved.
