Franklynsbr2023 4 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Translate to English: "I like the Windows version of Emby because it is more comprehensive than the Android version. In the case of the Nvidia Shield TV, is there a more feature-rich version of Emby available for it, closer to what the Windows version offers, for example? Thank you."

Hardly. But you can sideload standard Android app which'll give you same/similar experience as Windows client app. https://emby.media/emby-for-android.html Edited July 12, 2023 by GrimReaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franklynsbr2023 4 Posted July 13, 2023 Author Share Posted July 13, 2023 Is there any place where I can see screenshots of the features available in Emby for Shield? I'm planning to buy one, but before that, I want to see if it's as feature-rich as Emby for Windows or if it's somewhat limited like Emby for standard Android.

For example, in Emby for Windows, I can select movies based on the type of audio codec, I can delete duplicate files, etc... things that I can't do in the standard Emby Theater.

The link teaches how to download through APK, okay. But which APK should I download that has Emby with a similar interface to Windows that I can download on the Mistick or Shield?

Franklynsbr2023 4 Posted July 14, 2023 Author Share Posted July 14, 2023 Congratulations, everyone! I installed the Emby version for Android ARM7 on my Mi Stick, and I no longer have the Emby Theater version. Now I have the same features as the Windows version, much better. Even the removal of the black border around the subtitles is working in this version. I even wonder why I installed the previous one when this one is so much better. I even wonder, why are there both versions? And thank you very much again, guys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new version is emby-android-google-armeabi-v7a-release installed on the Mi Stick 4K. This is the best. Next step, when the money allows, is to buy a Shield to have DTS HD MA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
