I'm currently running the Android TV beta and I find that at times, depending on the background, it's very difficult, sometime impossible, to read the artist name showing in the upper left corner. I have attached an example.

Hi Adding a Series selection in the Live TV section of the home page would make navigating to all the Series so much easier/quicker (as highlighted in green below) ie on Home Page Live TV Guide Programmes Recordings Schedule Series Please consider. Thanks

First of all, Thank you to whomever or whatever changed that now allows Trailers to be played on a Amazon Fire TV Stick. All of you at Emby ROCK! Maybe others can test different models with slightly different versions. Also all of my devices are unmodified (side-loaded). I've only been able to test it on 1 Device so far. Plan to check others later this week. But here is what it is working on so far. Amazon Fire TV Stick 4k Fire OS: 6.7.2.3 (NS6273/2773) Fire TV Home Version: 6240042.1 (not sure if relevant) AndroidTv: 1.8.24a Emby Server: 4.5.0.22 beta (Premiere Key) Trailers (plugin): 1.2.9.0 Also if this was covered somewhere else already, I did a search and didn't see anything and thought this was excellent news. This is a huge + for Emby and Fire OS as it was a feature sorely missed. -jack

I am trying to ween my wife off of Windows Media Center and transition my main video box to my NVida Shield (currently, I have my Windows Media Center PC and my Shield running in parallel). I recently tried to push the transition a little more quickly by removing the only cable card from my Ceton Infinitv in the WMC PC to my HD Home Run (which is yet to set up my Media Center PC). After she used it in Emby a little, I did encounter some serioues resistance. My wife's initial objections were all about the remote control and the lack of some basic functionality that existed with Media Center for Live TV (and with most cable boxes). Some of the specific items she mentioned were: Harmony remotes have a "guide" button to bring up the channel guide that doesn't work with the Emby app When looking at the "Guide" or "Channels" tabs, you cannot jump to a specific channel by keying in the channel number. This makes jumping to specific channels impossible. This is especially a problem for channels that are near the end of the channel list as you have to manually scroll down the entire channel list to get to them There is no page up or page down when looking at the "Guide" or "Channels" tabs, so you have to manually scroll. Is there any support for mapping some expanded remote control functionality that doesn't exist on the stock remotes for the AndroidTV or Roku devices? I have a Harmony Hub with the non-elite remote, so I have a pretty standard set of buttons I can map - just need to know if/how to map features to the remote. If not, is this a features that can be entertained? I can't imagine users who are used to cable boxes, in which the above functionality is standard, would be able to easily adjust to a more simplistic interface, especially when dealing with LiveTV and channel guides that have several hundred channels. I know I can filter channels to "favorites" or manually remove channels from the HDR when setting it up, but if the users has dozens or even a several dozen channels that they like, this can make finding the specific shows they want more difficult.
