Deihmos 147 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Emby works really well with iptv but it takes almost 5 seconds to change the channel. I had the same behavior with cable tv so didn't use Emby with it. My clients are all android tv with the fast channel change option selected. Are there any settings I can change server side to speed up the channel changing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softworkz 3338 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Not now, but a future update will make channel switching almost instant for IPTV and comparable to a hardware TV for native tuner reception. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrbee99 1560 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Maybe you should just try NextPVR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seger 110 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 @Evangelium nach Lukas There is an update, I would be very happy about a development in the Live TV area: Fast channel change, both over buttons and loading times. There are certainly still many design options in the UI. Thank you very much Seger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillout 85 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 They introduced fast tuning briefly in a recent beta. IPTV tuning time was almost instant (~1 sec). Unfortunately they had to roll it back because it was causing IPTV instability with some users. Hopefully they get the kinks worked out or find a way to make it an optional setting if its hardware dependent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ardinesh 26 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Dear Emby Team, I'm reaching out to voice my support for prioritizing faster channel change speeds in Emby. As an avid user, I believe this improvement is essential for enhancing the user experience. Given the long-standing request for this feature, I urge the team to consider expediting its implementation. Improving channel change speed will not only delight users but also showcase Emby's commitment to customer satisfaction.
