Emby for LG 1.0.37 features Intro Skip, Lyrics & RTL Support

Embedded Lyrics Support for Music Files
Emby now supports display of musical lyrics you provide.  This doesn't require modifying your actual music tracks but is done using a text file residing next to the track!
You can quickly and easily use a tool such as MediaHumon Lyrics Finder that makes quick work of adding Lyrics to your existing content.  Rescan your music library and have this:

This is a great new feature that's easy to implement, uses hardly any storage space (text files) and gives you great results! (first icon bottom left)

 

Audio now playing screen

Save Time with Emby's Intro Skip

New to LG 1.0.37 is the ability to skip TV Show Episode Introductions segments. This allows you to jump right to the start of the action, saving a great deal of time allowing you to quickly get to the good stuff! Combine Into Skip with Automatic Play Next Episode for a superior binge-watching experience!

Please see our blog post on Intro Skip setup and use on the server side:

Configure Emby Client for Automatic or Manual Intro Skip
Each client can be set to ignore TV Show Intros, automatically use Intros, or to prompt use showing a button.  You can set this option in the client option's Playback Menu.

Using Intro Skip

With the Skip Intro button selected you can clearly see the button on the OSD immediately at the start of playback. The timeline is still at 0:00 before the show has started to play and we can already skip the introduction of the show.

Clicking the Skip Intro button immediately jumps right to the start of the Episode.

With the client option set to Automatically skip intros our TV show intros have been put on auto pilot.

Right at the start of playback it jumps to the end of the intro right at the point of the fade in.

Right to Left languages:

Emby for LG 1.0.37 takes advantage of Emby Server's (4.7.6) support for right to left languages.

The above two examples come from the 4.7.6 Server blog where you can read more about this.
