Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 I have just upgraded Emby for Samsung 1.2.8 to 1.2.9 and the option to use a theme other than Dark or Black is no longer there. When I downgrade to 1.2.8 the option is back. Samsung model number: UE43KU6510 Samsung firmware version: 1250 Samsung Emby client version: 1.2.9 Emby server version: 4.7.2.0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5063 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 I can use the other themes including the Superman theme on my 2018. though I'm using 4.8.0.2 server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Do you get the other issue with the playing progress indicator I have just got round to reporting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, can't see that one either. Sometimes these things are specific to a certain Tizen or server version though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 My 2017 has the issue with the themes on 1.2.9 but not 1.2.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5063 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 So, you see the problem on your 2016 (K) and 2017 (M) models? Possibly a server issue when the new themes were added. SamES and Luke will know more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 I see the issue on both the 2016 (K) and 2017 (M) models and I've just noticed in the 1.2.8 App there are only the Blue Radiance amd Windows Media Center themes are available, the light and Apple TV themes are also missing. I can confirm that live TV still works in the App so not a Premiere issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamES 895 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Yes, there are some changes going on with themes. Older models do have some limitations. Luke will need to describe in more detail, but I can confirm I'm also only seeing Dark and Black themes on my 2017 model. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37289 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi, yes due to the way the themes are built, not all options will be available on older models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 @Luke Does that mean that essentially in 1.2.9 and future releases I can't have any real choice of themes? Dark and Black are the only ones available without a subscription I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd certainly like to be able to rework them so that they'll function properly on older devices, so we'll just have to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 19, 2022 Author Share Posted June 19, 2022 Hopefully you will get the chance and it won't be too onerous, in the meantime I'll stick with the working version unless someting major is added. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamES 895 Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 I think this version fixed an issue on your model tv where 4K content was transcoding to 1080. Anyway, the version you have installed will expire in the next week or two anyway so you won’t have much choice but to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 I realised that it would expire last night so I changed to the dark theme and whilst it is a bit bland it is fine. I will update to the latest shortly. I have very little 4K content so wasn't aware of the transcoding issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickydodah! 128 Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 @LukeNot sure exactly when this was fixed but my older TV now has the options of Blue Radiance and WMC themes added. However I have noticed that only Blue Radiance works as WMC gives the Dark theme. This is in App version 1.5.0. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
