FrostByte 5024 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ok, I create thumbnails which are 10 secs apart. Both Android apps allow you to press FF and it scrolls. Maybe it doesn't work as well without the thumbs, not sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horstepipe 356 Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 BUT it works with the Android mobile app with nginx and cloudflare. So whatever the difference is there, can I expect that this will come to the Android TV app too, so basically I just need to wait for that?

My family members all have Fire TV Sticks where the problem also occurs. Edited June 22, 2022 by horstepipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are working on unifying the apps so working on whatever issues you are having with the standard app will probably be the best course of action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horstepipe 356 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) hum unfortunately the workaround by using chapters doesn't always work as lots of shows do not have chapters. In kodi there were default chapters created if none were present, but there isn't an option in Emby for that is it?

If you turn on the chapter option, default 5 min chapters will be created if there are none defined in the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horstepipe 356 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 ok I guess you mean "Enable Thumbnail Image Creation". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enabled it for a library and ran the scheduled task -> nothing happened and the task finished "taking 0 seconds". I understand that this was totally disabled for strm files some years ago, but some default thumbnails without images should be available here too.

shredfiend 2 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I'm late to this thread but I'd been having the same issue where fast forwarding in Emby on a Fire stick would hang and force exiting and resuming the video. Clearing the cache and the data for the Emby app on the Fire fixed it for me. Works well now. Whether that will be required periodically is to be seen. My config has the Fire and my Emby server connected via Ethernet to my LAN. No software/proxies in between. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
