I want to pay you to get HDR playback fixed in Emby on the Apple TV 4K
stephen_hill posted a topic in Apple TV
Dear Developers I have now decided that I willing to pay to get this bug/feature prioritized. Because my alternative is to pay for Infuse, and I'd rather give you the money. How can I take this forward? Is there anyone else who would be willing to donate to get this issue prioritized and fixed? Many Thanks Stephen- 6 replies

Hi guys, I have just bought the EMBY premiere and am very excited to utilize the emby theater for windows (both desktop version or the Microsoft store version are tried). I have triggered the HDR button in the Windows settings-display (Windows 11). For hardware, my GPU is RTX4090, my CPU is i9-13900k, and my monitor is ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM which is officially announced to support HDR10/Dolby Vision display. I don't use transcoding because my NAS is Synology DS923+ which doesn't even have GPU, so I have disabled such function, which means all the video streaming is "direct play", which has been illustrated in the status nerds tested before. All these are the preconditions. What I want to ask, just as the title said, is that can the Emby Theater for windows correctly play HDR content based on these conditions? The HDR includes all the HDR format, HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, etc., depending on what the video naturally is. What the "correctly" mean is that color is correct in HDR format (I remember is BT2020 for HDR10 or anything else), instead of auto tone-mapping to another format like SDR format (Because I see the feature provided by Emby premiere: HDR Tone Mapping When Transcoding ). Such a feature is absolutely important because we could realize HDR content playback on platforms that do not support HDR display normally by mapping the color space, that is what I understand. If the answer is "yes", I could be relieved to use the default and matched emby app to play back all the 4k Blu-ray disc with very high quality (BDMV, bluray folder or iso) stored in my NAS/ Emby server, instead of using external players like potplayer. You know, it feels tedious and not very good. So anyway, could anyone tell me about the questions above? I am afraid it could be a little bit messy because answers may be different for different HDR formats, like HDR10 and Dolby Vision. I appreciate any of your patience and help!

PGS Subs embedded my MKVs get misplaced after hardware transcoding
Nauclerus posted a topic in Linux
I've downloaded the latest and set up the Emby Server (Docker) environment and I've been thoroughly enjoying this wonderful application so far. I was using muxed MKVs with embedded subs (PGS) and it all worked perfectly. Direct play in 4K and Software Transcoding worked fine, both displayed the embedded subs perfectly well. I'll use Oppenheimer here as an example. (Subs here are located slightly to the left of the frame, that's due to the subs included and not a fault on Emby's part.) Of course when I confirmed all worked well, I had to try out Hardware encoding for more powerful conversion and the possibility for friends and family to access my repository remotely. Now I noticed multiple "shortcomings" that came with this: - A noticable green hue (compare the two images), alltough this might the fault of wrongly transcoded DV HDR filter (doing research on that) - When using the embedded subs (preferable due to perfect audio timing), I notice that when HARDWARE trancoding specifically, the subs seem to get misplaced, seemingly in the 1920x1080 quadrant of a 4k frame... but that is indeed very strange behaviour. Both transcode logs are included, aptly named. I will add that while both are pretty big downfalls, mostly the subtitle problem is actually dealbreaking as most of my users will need subtitles. I tried to download SRT subtitles as a substitution, that resulted in the following on the Web Client: The green hue remains, but the SRT subs are correctly displayed in the Web Client, Huzzah! I test on the Windows Theather app: Nothing... And the hue persists also here. When I try to get the PGS subs to work in here after a 4k > 1080p transcode just like in web player, they seems to shift to the wrong place. Of this last two screenshots there's also a ffmpeg log included, aptly named. I will admit that I've searched on this topic for quite a bit allready and nothing seems to resolve the subtitles missing or being misplaced. Is this a known issue? Has this been seen before? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Since upgrading my TV from a nice but flawed 2020 Sony Bravia X950H to a 2023 Hisense U8KM I am having more difficulty playing REMUX files with Dolby Vision MEL / FEL encoding. Could we add a feature where MEL or FEL is converted by Emby to Profile 5 or one of the other more common / compatible Dolby Vision profiles? To make any of these videos work I have to use the playback error feature and it transcodes with HLS playback of the embedded HDR10 HDR profile. HDR doesn't really pop on the newer TVs that support HDR10+ and Dolby Vision IQ. The Hisense U8KM runs Google TV (Android TV 12) and is otherwise an amazing TV. The Remux playback issues are the only downside of this TV upgrade.

Hi, i have read the topic here before, but unfortunately I can't find it again. Therefore I post it again. Maybe it can be moved to the right thread: Another problem is that the AppleTV Emby app does not automatically switch to HDR or Dolby Vision. The Emby app on the TV directly switches automatically. At the same time I noticed the same problem on a Telekom Magenta One (Android TV box) as well. Here is the same problem with HDR. Here, however, I can force HDR globally and then the movie is also shown in Dolby Vision. Whether this is a beta problem, I can unfortunately not say.

Now that Emby (beta) gets the Dolby Vision Full profile information - can we get the Apps to show the ExtendedVideoSubtype if it exists rather than just say 'Dolby Vision' - which continues to cause confusion and frequent posts why media items do not play correctly - especially for DV Profile 5. I've put the full list of DV possible configuration items below and what I would suggest the App displays instead of just 'Dolby Vision' @softworkz I know you are thinking along these lines as well - anything you wish to add ? Thanks ---- { "Items": [ { "MediaSources": [ { "MediaStreams": [ HDR10 "ExtendedVideoType": "Hdr10", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "Hdr10", App display = HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 4.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile42", App display = DolbyVision+SDR Dolby Vision Profile 5.0 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile50", App display = DolbyVision Only Dolby Vision Profile 7.6 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile76", App display = DolbyVision+HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 8.1 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile81", App display = DolbyVision+HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 8.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile82", App display = DolbyVision+SDR Dolby Vison Profile 8.4 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile84", App display = DolbyVision+HLG Dolby Vison Profile 9.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile84", App display = DolbyVision+SDR

¿Do you plan to continue releasing new stable versions of the client?
Fabian2101 posted a topic in Android TV / Fire TV
Hi, I want to warn you that the last stable version of the client for Android TV 2.0.83g was released by you in October 2022, a stable version that became obsolete almost immediately because it contained a very old and obsolete version of ExoPlayer as an internal player due to the inconvenience with many files containing DV - HDR10. Then just on January 26, 2023 they released an unstable Beta version 2.0.87g with the solution in the reproduction of many files that contain DV - HDR10 with the change of the internal ExoPlayer version. But since January 26, 2023 you abandoned the development of new stable versions of the client for Android TV with the latest unstable version 2.0.87g. I also want to warn you that the unstable version 2.0.87g has some problems, sometimes when watching several episodes of series one episode after another in a row, sometimes randomly when an episode ends and jumps to the next episode by mistake instead of starting from it. beginning at minute zero, erroneously starts playing in the middle of the episode, or near the end of the episode, when this error happens there is also a small popup legend of a few seconds, from the client for Android TV 2.0.87g that reports that various errors has happened, with the reproduction of movies the same error occurs much less frequently. Most likely you will tell me that instead of using the client for Android TV, that I use the other client for Android smartphones and tablets, but at this moment I have two drawbacks to use the client for smartphones and tablets, the first The problem is that the client Android 3.3.07 and earlier versions produces jumps and jerks in the images when the subtitles appear on the TV screen, with any subtitle format, be it SRT or PGS, just at the moment they appear on the screen. they produce jumps and jerks. The second problem is that the client for smartphones and tablets is for exclusive use with a PREMIERE subscription, and unfortunately, due to the tightening of the block and restrictions on transactions with foreign money imposed by the Argentine government, it is completely impossible to use dollars to buy a subscription PREMIERE. For these reasons, I need you guys to continue to release stable, bug-free versions of the client for Android TV. ¿For everything I have explained to you, I ask if you continue to develop new 100% stable versions without any playback errors in the client for Android TV? -
So I was disappointed to see that despite the latest ffmpeg detection the full Dolby Vision profile details - Emby just displays 'Dolby Vision' in the clients. However, upon investigating the database directly - I see that emby is infact collecting the FULL DV profile data - and writing it to the ExtendedVideoType / ExtendedVideoSubType fields as per below :- ExtendedVideoType = 100 (HDR10) ExtendedVideoSubType = 100 (HDR10 and HDR10+) - Presumably as ffmpeg cannot yet determine HDR10+ profiles ? ExtendedVideoType = 130 (Dolby Vision) ExtendedVideoSubType = 1350 (DV5), ExtendedVideoSubType = 1736 (DV7), ExtendedVideoSubType = 1381 (DV8) ExtendedVideoType = 120 (HLG) An API query returns the SubType as 'None' but in the database it has a sub-type (of 1381, so should return DV8).. "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "None", Is this a conscious decision to not include this - and if so, may I ask if this is planned on a future update ? Thanks, @softworkzFYI

Fixed transcoding in playback issue with DV and HDR10 in client 2.0.87
Fabian2101 posted a topic in Android TV / Fire TV
Hi, I want to notify you that the problem in playing files with DV and HDR10 from Netflix has been solved in the new Beta version 2.0.87g. Here below I am going to attach the screenshots where you can see the direct play without any transcoding and the HDR10 working without problem: But also luckily I am being able to force my Emby server to use HLS play, in the files and contents that cause constant jumps and jerks in the images, and thanks to the playback with HLS the jumps and jerks in the images are totally solved in my OLED television, in the movies and television series that come from the Apple TV + service there are always jumps and jerks but thanks to HLS they are 100% resolved. Here below I am going to attach the screenshots where you can see the HLS playback solving all the jerks and jumps in the images and so I can enjoy a totally smooth playback: I wonder how HLS playback solves the jumps and jerks in the images on my TV? Mystery... Thank you very much! Greetings

Add configuration option to always transmit HLS without transcoding.
Fabian2101 posted a topic in General/Windows
I want to ask you, if you can please add a configuration option to force my Emby for Windows server to always use HLS streaming. At the moment my only way to force HLS streaming is to enable the "Convert Unsupported Audio" setting in the Android TV client. And I also have to have all the movie and series files with the default audio track with the E-AC3 or DTS codec. This way I force my Emby server to send HLS streams, instead of HTTP. The problem that with this method my Emby server also transcodes the E-AC3 or DTS audio track to AAC. If you add a configuration option in the Emby server to force the server to use HLS streaming, then it doesn't transcode the audio track unnecessarily. HLS transmission in my case solves the problem on my favorite and main television, the problem of constant jumps and jerks in the images. And since the latest version of the client for Android TV has become obsolete due to playback problems with DV and HDR10, and the client for Android 3.2.92 I don't have any option to force the HLS streaming. Thanks, greetings. -
Add another internal player LibVLC in client for Android TV
Fabian2101 posted a topic in Feature Requests
I want to suggest you guys, please add LibVLC player as an alternative internal player to ExoPlayer. It's just a matter of adding a configuration option in the client for Android TV, in which I can choose between the different options ExoPlayer, or LibVLC, or an external player. An Emby competitor's Android TV client already has the configuration options ExoPlayer, or LibVLC, or automatic, or an external player. It is that if Emby's competitor already has two internal players, the official Emby clients would also have to have the internal LibVLC. Since the problem of playing MKV files, which contain Dolby Vision and HDR10, is unique to the Emby's ExoPlayer player, but if I had the option to choose LibVLC, right now I could play absolutely all my files that have DV and HDR10 with LibVLC, if you were as an internal player in the Emby client for Android TV. Although VLC a few years ago has problems with small jerks or jumps in the image when playing SRT text subtitle lines, I only use forced subtitles with a few lines of text in movies or TV series episodes. I leave you an attached image with the configuration options that should be added to the client for Android TV: Thanks. Greeting.

Not sure if this is new but just noticed this in the quick-extract logs of the core: DOVI configuration record: version: 1.0, profile: 8, level: 7, rpu flag: 1, el flag: 0, bl flag: 1, compatibility id: 1 The core is also doing some progress apparently...

Using both FireTV and Android apps. HDR Format: Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.07.06, BL+EL+RPU, Blu-Ray Compatible / SMPTE ST 2086, HDR10 compatible TV triggered HDR. However, HDR format: Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.07.06, BL+EL+RPU, Blu-ray compatible / SMPTE ST 2094 App 4, Version 1, HDR10+ Profile A compatible TV triggered Dolby Vision. TV is LG C1 so supports Dolby Vision, HDR 10 and HLG. No HDR10+ support as you can see both have the same DV specifications, only difference is the extra compatible track. Is there any reason by DV isn't being triggered for example 1?

As title's question, emby on my ipadair 5 and iphone13 can not support dolby vision, but the new release emby can support dolby vision on Android, why? Any update plan in future? Thanks!

Constant Lagging/Buffering While Playing Dolby Vision Movies
MikolajNi posted a topic in Android TV / Fire TV
ffmpeg-directstream-536b2b26-c516-4141-bd7b-ac1d60c1c9b6_1.txt Hi，Community I've encountered some problems while playing DV Movies. So on my Sony H9000X, Dolby Vision movies played by emby can be correctly recognized by the TV, the Color was right. If I play a DV Movies from the very beginning, there will be no problem with buffering or lagging. However, If I fast-forward while watching, or I pause the movie, exit the software and resume playback, then I will encounter constant Lagging and Buffering. The log is attached. There is definetly no problem with Internet Connection, quality of the movie File, preliminary I assume the promblem is caused by the Dolby Vision Feature, Just cant figure out how. Hope to get your help, Thx a lot！ -
Hi All, I have Emby for Android TV beta installed on my A90J. I have a couple of MKVs with Dobly Vision only and they correctly display the video (no purple tint etc) and the picture settings on the TV show the Dolby Vision Dark/Bright options as expected.. I have then tried playing a file with both Dolby Vision and HDR10 but Dolby Vision isn't picked up. I understand I need to upload logs etc but can anyone tell me from where? Thanks

Just posting this for info - as it's something I wasn't aware of and may be useful to others. As you may be aware, there is no way to currently play dual layer DV files (those with a primary 4K HEVC and a secondary 1080p HEVC DV stream in them) via emby - however .. Using MakeMKV v1.15.4 you can actually remux these previous Dual Layer Dolby Vision MKV's into a 'single layer' maintaining the DV information These appear to play perfectly on the Shield 2019 with the latest Emby Beta client. Just use the MKV as the input file for MakeMKV and the resulting file will then be playable with DV - this is probably quicker than re-ripping the original media.

Anyone here with a 2019 Shield connected to a Dolby Vision capable TV that works? I have just bought a 2019 Shield Pro, but when I enable the Dolby Vision HDR mode, I lose the picture on my LG C7 TV. The only way I have worked out how to get the picture back, is to Factory Reset the Shield, although I have since found there may be another way that might work. This is not an Emby issue, just asking for any input. Thanks.

[HDR10/Dolby Vision] Not working on my Huawei p30 Pro (Android)
CyberPoison posted a topic in Android
Hi everyone i have a issue with my Emby App well I tested 3 (Movies) two with Dolby Vision and 1 without Dolby Vision but with HDR10 So I tested the movies but the image are not good (Brightness/Darks colors) in HDR10 or Dolby Vision (Dolby Vision doesn't works) I tested without DV but with HDR10 and the result in bad quality of the movie is running, so the quality is very bad (Bright/dark) it's only shows me than the HDR10 is not working. Or at least compared with plex (ExoPlayer) the quality is less better in (Brightness/Dark) on Emby (LibMpv) So LibMpv < exoplayer in terms of brightness and darks color but when I open the stream with a VLC all colors as ok so it only proof than the LibMpv is not able to reproduce well the HDR10 because of their issues on the colors [Dolby Vision With LibMpv] i tried Dolby Vision but the screen still black and with plex works well, so i belive than the issue is from the (LibMpv) I really suggest to upgrade to Exoplayer. if possible. I guess than LibMpv Doesn't support MP4 Dolby Vision content so this is why i suggest moving to Exoplayer (Natively) cuz the Exoplayer run MP4 Dolby Vision withtout any issue in the quality. so i also noticed than the issue is really from the LibMpv cuz when i used "an external player" like VLC it worked well (Nice Brightness/Dark collors and etc...) [HDR10 2160p] the image still to be desirable because brightness and darks collor doesn't look at a real HDR10. i belive than it was a issue also with LibMpv. Tested With the follow movies HDR10 Dolby Vision (MP4) So Conclusion. I guess than LibMpv is not doing HDR10 / Dolby Vision as well on the plaformes where it was implemented. causing HDR10 dimming is bad on emby app My Suggestion. Emby Switch from LibMpv or talk with the LibMpv about this issue because mp4 already support Dolby Vision (Avalaible Only on MP4 and TS at this moment) and HDR10 is avalaible in all container (I guess) Issue: Bland colors instead of good colors as HDR10 Give us at normally Bad Dimming (Birghtness/Dark) colors. It just tell me than it not allow me to reproduce HDR10 but with exoplayer and vlc everything is ok on my Android and iOS. ScreenShot Plus many people enjoy more Exoplayer than others. @Luke Dolby Vision Demo files (MP4 Format) Glass Blowing @59.94fps: Dolby Vision Profile 5 UHD for iOS – Dolby Atmos Glass Blowing @59.94fps: Dolby Vision Profile 8.1 UHD – Dolby Atmos
