smgsmagus 0 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I tried sideloaded app on Shield , but how can I register it? I have registered one for Android TV version, sideloaded standard android one from github, but cannot get it working as it's not registered (I do not have Emby premiere, only app registration on Google Play).

You don't have to register it just to try. When you click the play button and the big scary screen comes up that demands you buy premiere for a single app just arrow down to the bottom where it says play for one minute. The new version of the mobile app on AndroidTV seems to scare you into buying a subscription even though neither of the Android apps work properly on AndroidTV. For me mobile v3.2.92 works just as poorly as any version of Emby for ATV, which I wasted my money on. I'm very frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks! Disregard for now actually, I'm realizing it may coincidentally have been separate issues with the 2 specific videos I happened to be testing. Further test videos are playing fine. Sorry about that. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyxa 1 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I have exactly the same issue on my TCL TV with AndroitTv app. I used some others devices : PC : No issues TV (LG) : No issues TV (FireStick TV) : No issues Samsung S21 : No issues TCL TV with Andoid TV application (vers 2.0.83Gà=) Premium account As soon as I have a media on direct play i have some sound issues. I used "correct ...." 3 times or 4 times and it's working well on the AndroidTV App. On the server i saw that the media is "transcoded" I don't now for the moment how install Android version on my TCL TV and I saw that it"s the answer given some times. I see nothing on server log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onyxa 1 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Ok I install version Android and now the sound seems to be good. No sound issues with direct play like i add on since the beginning. But now I have stop during the play. The problem happens with 4K film Vidéo 4K HEVC HDR10 Lecture directe (24 mbps) Audio French AC3 5.1 (Default) Lecture directe (384 kbps) If I reduce quality, transcode is activated and no problems with sound or with image Emby for Android 3.2.82 Téléviseur du salon 192.168.1.6 http/1.1 Flux MKV (24 mbps) HLS (15 mbps 51 fps) Réduction du bitrate en raison des paramètres qualité Vidéo 4K HEVC HDR10 Transcoder (H264 15 mbps) Mappage des tons (format=nv12:matrix=bt709:primaries=bt709:transfer=bt709) Audio French AC3 5.1 (Default) Lecture directe (384 kbps) Edited February 9, 2023 by Onyxa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking19 23 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 With no new updates to either the server or AndroidTV app I assume the issues still exist, I switched to Plex(ugh!) a couple of weeks ago and have NO ISSUES on the Hisense U65H (Google TV built in). I have continued to use Plex(bah!) exclusively on the U65H, I don't know what Emby is doing differently but it sure isn't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am with @viking19 that with no new updates to either the server or AndroidTV app the issue still exists. I just tested it out on both my Google Chromecast 4K with Google TV and my Hisense TV(Google TV built in) and have the same results. I am doing the same on as @viking19 and wish I didn't have to. Is there anything I can provide that would help with this. I can take videos of it happening I can provide logs or files(which I have previously). Would love to have this fixed so I can start using Emby again on all my devices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking19 23 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I hate to be "that guy" but four days later and no response from the devs, after they specifically asked if the issues still exist, especially after @TheClaus provided all kinds of previous test info. PS The Hisense TV is actually a 65U68H (Canadian U6H) I have got to stop posting during HNIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it is specific to Android TV connected directly to the TV or Android TV built in and using the TV speakers. I can use my shield and not have any issues because it is running through the audio receiver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting what changed between those version though - nothing on the Release Notes gives a clue - but maybe Eric updated a library or something that is not in the release notes .. fingers crossed.. it can be identified.

Not sure if the second one was a typo. Since the issue manifests in both apps, it is most likely related to Exo changes since those long ago versions. I believe it is isolated to using the internal decoders to mix down to stereo on a TV device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
