How to run EMBY for LG 2021, soft 6, soft 3.20 or higher

[marcopila 4]

Hi everyone..

Lg hasn't yet created an Emby app for the 2021 models.
This applies to both software version 6 and 3.20 and above. The only option to use EMBY is to run a web browser on the TV. Go to the EMBY website and log in to the server and then add the tab shortcut to the main panel of the screen. Then you can see Emby at the bottom of the screen and go straight to the EMBY server without entering your login and password again. IT WORKS, because on my LG 43UP7800 I have it done. REGARDS.

Ps. I'm waiting for Emby APP from LG.

Lg jeszcze nie zrobił nie stworzyl aplikacji Emby dla modeli z 2021. 
Dotyczy to zarówno oprogramowania w wersji 6 jak i 3,20 i wyzej. Jedyna opcja żeby korzystać z EMBY, to uruchomić przeglądarke internetową w TV.  Wejść na strone EMBY i zalogować sie do serwera  a następnie dodać skrót zakładki do panelu głownego  ekranu. Wtedy jest widoczne Emby na dole ekranu i wchodzić od razu bezpośrednio na serwer EMBY bez kolejnego wpisywania login i hasła. TO DZIAŁA, bo na moim LG 43UP7800 tak mam to zrobione. POZDRAWIAM.

Ps. Czekam na Emby APP od LG.

edited title somewhat for pinning

I also tested this, and confirm that it works. But in video/full-screen mode there is an annoying thin grey bar at the top of the screen, which is the reduced browser bar. Do you know if there is a way (a possible browser option) for removing it?

IMO this should be pinned or so.
Just a workaround but it's better having a somehow working workaround than nothing.
Might calm the frustration of the users a bit...

Just my 2 cents though...

Pinned for now until LG app is approved and published for 2021+ sets

Doble click left mouse button or OK in magic RC in the playing movie, very fast. Browser will come to the real full screen mode and stay there until press back button.

I don´t understand, why in LG web browser missing function (button) for full sreen

Ok, it works for me too. Thanks!

Obviously this makes the thread I just made IRRELEVANT.  If I had known this I would not have bought these two TVs today.

It is almost 2022....when is this app going to be available?  This is ridiculous that the year is almost over and the app is not available.  I guess I should have bought the Samsung....may go do that tomorrow and take this thing back.

Do I need LG account to run Emby?

It has been almost a year since I set up my LG TVs but I remember signing up for an LG account, which I normally would not do unless I NEEDED it.....but what I can't remember is if I signed up in order to access LG specific content or because I needed to in order to download apps to add to the TV.  If you can download and add the emby app to your TV without an LG account then I would assume you don't need one to run it either.

Thanks for answer. I install Emby but when try to start it show me window to login into LG account. I think there's some hack to install without that but if not I will sign up.
