I've been having strange responses on my Roku TVs. Several problems in getting EMBY on my roku tv 1) I found one problem was that for some reason, my win 10 server's firewall blocked everything to the machine. Based on a answer here, I disabled (and changed it to a private network) and verified I could get emby on any of the PC's on my network. next problem I am getting timeout errors from the roku tv (even though I verified the IP addresses are correct and both server and roku are on same network. now the hard part. I tried putting the roku-tv's ip in my host file (Windows\System32\drivers\hosts. ) file to see if it does any good nope, no good . I get routing errors. --> Pinging biggie-bed [192.168.6.55] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.6.37: Destination host unreachable. I have included my default route in the document below. any ideas? roku-stat-ip-doc..txt

Hi there, I've been playing with Roku ECP & deeplinking (this thread helped a lot). I don't really like the idea of sequentially launching the app and then start an audio playlist using Emby Remote Control - I'd prefer to fire the playlist directly using ECP. I tried multiple commands based on "curl -v -XPOST http://{ipaddress}:8060/launch/43157?Command=PlayNow&ItemIds=1,2,..." but no luck. Did anyone manage? Any suggestion? And I'm also interested to display pictures using ECP. Both PlayNow and DisplayContent won't work... Thank you!

I know this was talked about but I wanted to officially put this in the correct posting forum. For the Roku, would like to see a feature to HIDE the chapters like Google TV and Android TV can do. For the Roku, would like to see a feature to SEPARATE movies and TV collection. Right now movie and tv are combined.

Hi, I have a Premiere account. I am having this strange problem where 2 episodes of Customer Wars will not play video via Roku Emby app. HTTP plays fine. I am attaching log file here. You can go to the bottom (approximately 7:01 PM) and see the episodes of Customer Wars being played on the "Living Room" Roku device. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have a some gripes with the Guide functionality on the Emby for Roku app (version 4.1.15): I can select the Tags in the guide ["Show Only channels with Tag(s)"], however I have to do it every time the Emby app is started on Roku. It would be ideal if the Tags would be remembered after an app re-start. I can select the Sort in the guide ["Sort by:"], however I have to do it every time the Emby app is started on Roku. It would be ideal if the Sort would be remembered after an app re-start. I can set the Sort in the Guide ["Sort by:"] only to a limited number of options. I would really like to have the same options that are available in a Web Browser. I'm specifically referring to the "Favorites, Then by..." options that are available in a Web Browser, but not on Roku. I'm hoping these are something that could be addressed in a future version of Emby for Roku. Thanks

I having playback issues on Roku with some movies in my collection. I'm fairly new to emby but it has generally worked our really well. Out of the last 10 movies i've added, ive had issues with maybe 6 of them (give or take). Not attaching logs because the issue not specific to a particular video, or even emby. Here's what's happening. Some videos play with no issues at all. Some start to play, end then stop out of nowhere. The time is always the same for each video. Meaning video "a" will always fall at 2m:38s, and video "b" will always fall at 10m15s, and one goes maybe 4s. These times are just from my memory, probably not exact. the point is each video is consistently stopping at the same point. Roku is the common component. Only tested on one so far, but i'll give it a try on another too. What i've tried: 1. New containerized emby server - 4.7.14.0 (free version) 2. Non-containerized emby server on my laptop - same version. 3. Jellyfin - latest 4. Plex - latest 5. NFS storage, and local storage. 6. Re-downloading the video, and comparing hash's. (they matched) In all the scenarios above, the same exact issue occurs. I've also tried: 1. Playing the videos on the containerized emby server, in chrome rather then roku. I this case the videos tend to hang or jump at the same timestamps, but the movie continues on after that. 2. In plex, I used the option to "optimize for tv". The new video plays flawlessly, so i guess it corrected what ever issue there was in the video. Unfortunately that process is a pain to have to go through, and 1.5G video ends up being 6.5G. But the biggest annoyance is that i don't know if i need to do this optimization until i start watching, which kinda kills movie night. Has anyone had these types of issues with Roku? I know roku is a bit picky which is why i started using emby vs my home rolled roku app that made in the first place. Any tips/tricks for identifying and repairing these issues in an automated fashion?

Due to Plex drastic changes to the UI on Roku devices on 12/6/2018 a lot of long term Plex users are moving to Emby. - I am one of those users. I started the migration the same day and have one big question. Is there anyway to move the existing meta data from Plex into Emby? 1. Movie & TV show matching that have already been corrected in PLEX. 2. Custom/Not default Art Work already selected in Plex. Thanks in advance to anyone that can save me and others hours and hours of getting our servers back in order.

Host OS: Ubuntu Server 22.10 Docker version: Linuxserver/emby 4.7.9.0 I use traefik to expose ports 80/443 and retrieve ssl certs so all docker containers are reachable via emby.mydomain.net. Works as designed, but I cant for the life of me figure out who to get users connected remotely/via emby connect....can someone point me in the right direction? also, I need a port open on my firewall, right? emby: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/emby:latest container_name: emby ports: - 8096:8096 - 8920:8920 networks: traefik_web: ipv4_address: 172.18.0.27 restart: unless-stopped environment: - PUID=$PUID - PGID=$PGID - NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all runtime: nvidia volumes: - /metadata/embyconfig:/config - /metadata/embytranscode:/transcode - /data/media/movies:/data/movies - /data/media/tvshows:/data/tvshows - /data/media/4kmovies:/data/4kmovies labels: - "traefik.enable=true" ## HTTP Routers - "traefik.http.routers.kenemby-rtr.entrypoints=https" - "traefik.http.routers.kenemby-rtr.rule=Host(`kenemby.$DOMAINNAME`)" ## Middlewares - "traefik.http.routers.kenemby-rtr.middlewares=chain-authelia@file" ## HTTP Services - "traefik.http.routers.kenemby-rtr.service=kenemby-svc" - "traefik.http.services.kenemby-svc.loadbalancer.server.port=8096"

After streaming Live TV, if one starts streaming a "regular" piece of media without closing and reopening the app first, pressing play/pause on the Roku remote will cause the Emby app to restart streaming the Live TV channel rather than pausing the existing regular stream. It is required to press up on the remote then manually select the UI pause/play button to workaround this. Restarting the Emby app seems to clear its "association" with Live TV and the remote's physical pause/play button will pause/play a regular stream if Live TV hasn't been touched during that instance. If this is a known issue, is an ETA on a fix known? It's rather annoying because of muscle memory from basically every other streaming app. Using a Roku Ultra 2020 or 2021, official remote.

As i am fixing my music library (due to my current "issues") i realized "Songs" display on the artist info screen is painful. But more so very painful in the Roku app. Might be my imagination. Possibly its the same data that is displayed on both, but its a list i will never utilize. But what i would like to see is the "appears on" in the roku app. Thanks!

One of my files in 4K, HEVC is transcoded to H264 during playback and the reason being "Media bitrate exceeds limit". Source Video bitrate - 115Mb/s Max Bitrate : Auto - 110Mb/s So I guess my lan server is not fast enough to stream 115Mb/s. Am I right? So, in that case, how can I increase the max 110Mb/s value? Is it detected by Emby based on my connection? I am streaming through my Roku Ultra which is wired to my lan network. Or is it my router that has the limitation? How do I find out where the bottleneck is? Also I have couple switches on the path that supports only 10/100 Mbps.

Love this thing so far! Only issue is that it will not 'play next episode automatically' using the Roku app. I do have it set to do so, it just doesn't. Any ideas? TIA

Looks like my Roku TV 7117X is no longer able to connect to my remote Emby Server via SSL. SSL certificate was generated by Synology Lets Encrypt. I wanted to create this thread to make awareness and so others with same problem can find this. This all seems to be related to the Lets Encrypt certificate issues from September 30. Other clients like IOS app and Chrome browsers can successfully connect with SSL. Looking through other threads other users are reporting with same issues. No sure if there is a way to fix.

i've been testing emby for playback of 4k/UHD files. when I play and 4k movie, it stops playback and i get a "loading" every couple of minutes. from the server management gui I see the following: The media is compatible with the device regarding resolution and media type (H.264, AC3, etc.), but is in an incompatible file container (.mkv, .avi, .wmv, etc.). The video will be re-packaged on the fly before streaming it to the device. Is MKV really an incompatible container in emby? This would really be bad for me because most of my 4k media is in an MKV format that I can stream directly to the TV with another media server software. any suggestions that don't require conversion to another file container? Thanks

Hello, First, do you by chance have an app for Samsung TV? If not, no problem. I didnt find one which is why I ask. I bought the below RokuAmazon.com: Roku Streaming Stick+ | HD/4K/HDR Streaming Device with Long-range Wireless and Voice Remote with TV Controls: Electronicshttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075XLWML4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 When I select Photos from your application (streaming from a windows box on the same network with emby server) after a few minutes the Roku Screensaver kicks in with the buildings and movie references....I dont want this, I want your photos to play. Surprisingly when a click something the screensaver goes away and the photos are still there changing.... I checked online for Roku Screensaver and nothing ressonates, I find no setting at all in Roku for screensavers, not a channel, anuything Can you please help me have your software running the slideshow when I press the play button Also, the fact that you can press the play button to get a slide show although natural is not intuitive and took a long time for me to figure out...some screen cue for that woudl be most welcome. Thanks for your help, Kind regards, Miguel Feitosa

So I have recently added a HDhomerun EXTEND to my Emby system. The goal is to allow people to watch a few local stations in Emby that we do not get on other steaming services. All of my TVs are Roku clients of different types. Some hardwired some Wifi. I use my Android client on my phone on occasion also. I have 2 HDhomerun EXTEND units connected and my goal is to be able to support 4 users watching / recording at the same time without any major load on my Emby server. The Server is virtualized running as a Windows 10 system in VMware 6.5. It has 4 cores and 10GB or RAM. All the storage is local SSD on a RAID 5 array. The server is Emby Premier version 4.4.2.0 and the Roku clients are using Emby beta. Historically software transcoding has been fine for the movies and other videos I have in my library but with TV I knew the use would spike and more transcoding maybe needed. This lead me to buy the HDhomerun Extend versions due to their capability to decode. Once setup I had a few issues with specific channels that I have learned are down to reception thanks to posts and help in other Emby forums. Then I was still seeing ffmpeg activity going on, sometimes as a directstream where the audio was being converted, others full transcoding. With more help from the Forum I purchased and installed a NVIDIA GTX 1030 card to do hardware decoding. The problem is I am still seeing ffmpeg activity for the Roku clients. I now DO NOT see it for the Android but definitely for the Roku clients. Can somebody help me sort what is going on here? Shouldn't the decoding all be happening in hardware now between the HDhomerun EXTEND and the NVIDIA card? I see that the Processing Plan in the ffmpeg log still says False for all CanDoInHardware lines does that mean the card is not working correctly? I have attached logs for more details. hardware_detection-63724218955.txt ffmpeg-directstream-0194bed2-a9ad-4aac-b654-03b1a909ac4e_1.txt embyserver.txt

Add channel name to search results when setting a recording. (All apps)
Red5ive posted a topic in Feature Requests
I'm in the UK using a freeview TV line up. In my channel list I have both SD and HD versions of channels (BBC 1 on channel 1 and BBC HD on channel 101 for example) When searching for a recording to make, such as the example below 'The Gadget Show' I get results for both channels but you cant see which one is for the HD channel, or indeed what channel it is on without having to click on every entry to check. Could the search results list the channel and number as well as episode detail so that it is easier to see which one to record? On a related note, using the web app in the new edge browser there is no arrows or scroll bar to view all the search results on this screen -
This now happens several times a during movie. I can get back in and it resumes. I've noticed this since upgrading to 4.5.2. I'm running Emby on a Synology 918+ NAS.

Hello, I just downloaded the Emby media server after long term issues with Plex. The sever is up and running on my host PC but I cannot access it from a Roku or Samsung Smart TV I tried the Emby smart comment and when I use the link, it takes me to the screen that says add server. It's not showing the server I have running. I enabled port 8096 in the firewall. I tried connecting to the remote server with no access. I tried to see my local host IP but when I go to dashboard it doesn't show, only the remote. I really want this to work, any ideas?

I'm putting this here instead of the Roku section, because I don't want this to be taken as a request for support. (It's really just a rant with a question mark.) The question is why does everything in my library look worse on a Roku than on any other device? I'm talking about direct play here - no transcoding involved. I should say I haven't tested the high-end Rokus. I think the most expensive one I've seen is the Roku Premiere. By "worse" I mean not as detailed, generally dull looking, and it's especially bad in dark scenes - the blockiness is truly depressing. It's as if the Rokus are designed to take the incoming video and re-encode it, badly. That's crazy, right? I must be wrong. There's no reason to take a perfectly good file and re-do the whole thing. Just play it. Just play the dang file. Here I am taking the time to ensure I have the best quality media, and Roku is like Forget all that! We'll just make all new video on the spot! ?????? Maybe that's not what's happening, but it sure looks like it. Am I crazy?

When displaying Scheduled Recordings all the display items are one day out. For example recordings scheduled for today are displayed as Tomorrow. This only happens when using Roku it does not occur using Android or Windows 10. Also when using Roku even though the playback skip forward setting is 30 seconds the video only skips forward 10 seconds. Again this only happens when using Roku. Is anyone else affected?
