CarlosLima Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) Hi, Some time ago I had noticed a bug that occurs when a client that does not have playback enabled, that is, he can only view the libraries, without playing anything at all, if he sends the playback to the Chromecast, he does get the playback, as if he had enabled, but not. I ask to verify this because it is in fact a very old bug, I believe more than a year. Thanks for any tips. Edited July 16 by CarlosLima Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Hi, those options don't disable playback. They only disable transcoding. Try checking the boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlosLima Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Hi, thanks for replying. I've been using Emby for over eight years and only now this information has been exposed. So we still have a serious translation problem, because it's very clear that unchecking the boxes means NOT ALLOWING, so the first of the options clearly says that the unchecked box should not be played. In fact, leaving the first of the boxes unchecked, in fact the client CANNOT PLAY, but only if it sends to Chromecast, play is enabled, being a bug. Still on the subject, how to configure so that the client CAN NOT PLAY in any application? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 I'll look at improving the text of the options and then the translators will retranslate. Have you explored all of the user permissions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlosLima Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Yes, of course, I even consider myself a power user of Emby. I always left the first option as UNCHECKED and the clients were always unable to play, however, if the client sends to Chromecast (only to Chromecast) playback is enabled.

CarlosLima Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Taking advantage of the 'translation' subject, there are other errors, like the one in the image. The second option refers to the video but is repeated as the first option, clearly a translator error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does the first option mean (Allow media playback)? But Casting bypasses this restriction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlosLima Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 Box #1 checked, Play. Box #1 Unchecked, Does Not Play. It's working as it always has. The problem is when we cast to Chromecast, it plays even with box #1 unchecked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlosLima Posted July 17 Author Share Posted July 17 (edited) Glad it's understood now. So the first unchecked box can't play and doesn't actually play, but when sending to Chromecast it is playing, so that's a bug I would like to see fixed. If I understand correctly @Luke made a mistake by stating that box #1 is not about reproduction, it is only about reproduction.
