Any updates on a fix for playback issues?

If I turn off mpv then all media plays except for 4k content.

 

Cheers

We're hoping to have an update out next week. Apologies for the disruption.

@Luke and all.  I have been following this as this has been an issue I have had since getting Emby - I asked about it in another post but got no response, so i am glad it has been responded to here.  In either case I liked the product enough to get a lifetime pass even with the issues on ATV - with the hope it would eventually get resolved In the interim - Thank you for working on this and I look forward to seeing this update

Forwarding/rewinding seems to be fixed in this release.

But I am noticing a new issue with some weirdness when backing out of playing content- it goes to a black screen for a second before going back to the previous menu that you were at.

Update- I think this is an issue with my TV/dolby vision + Emby. Still troubleshooting. Not affecting other Apple TV device on different TV

Not a huge problem but makes things feel glitchy. I am gonna do some more testing on my other Apple TV and will be back with more info.

Thanks for the info! Ill give it a try, I havent used emby in a while since 4k stuff hasnt worked and skipping intro has been missing. Hoping to see that in the future..

Skip Intro is supported in the latest update to the Emby Apple TV app.

Funny - after updating to 1.6.7 on atv, the atv cannot find the server anymore. If I add server IP manually it ends up with a blank server list…

And if I change port (for testing) it says no server found, so obviously it “sees” the server but it doesn’t show up on server list. Very annoying. Anyone else with this problem?

good thing is that it (Emby server running on a Synology NAS inside Docker) works flawlessly from iPhone, LG TV app, and computer.

Did you also ensure this scheduled task has run?

If so, provide a server log covering the period the above task was run.

To those who are using latest Emby Apple TV App v1.6.8, how do you find it compared to the Android apps, specifically for 4K HDR content?

I currently use FireTV sticks and I am thinking about changing to an Apple TV 4K, but Emby is the app I use the most and so would need to be as good as it's Android version.

No improvements, HDR passthrough for MKVs is not supported yet.

And no floating screen on iOS yet either. I really miss both of these things. 

Stay tuned.

I dont know what i have missed... but i just saw Emby 1.7.0 (3) on apple TV work with refresh rate switching. 

As far as i know , this was not working when using MPV .... 

I have tried all format ranging from h264 to h265 HDR etc .... my tv  (LG C1) switch to 24p every time ! 

That is AMAZING !!!! Thank you Emby team !

I hadn't noticed this. I'll have to check. For the most part, I don't mind emby on the Apple TV 4k - but infuse has definitely been better. Picture quality seems better along with its ability to keep audio properly synced. I'm not saying I like Infuse, I actually prefer emby, as does my wife. I didn't realize how great the android support was in comparison, until I got my apple tv.

My fingers are crossed that we're a good update away.
