chrisrobbins1970 21 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Well back to PLex I go.. Emby is amazing on ANY device but Roku. The alphapicker is not working properly on Roku and since ALL my family and friends use ROKU; I get daily texts..Hey Emby froze when I went to look for a movie under letter (whatever letter) and had to close emy go back into and look for a movie using the fastforward button or voice search..SO becuase of this little issue that I guess the DEVs are handcuffed getting it fixed for Roku..I am sadly going back to PLEX and deal with the issues from plex when they arise.. I would rather stick with emby becuase for MY needs its the WINNER, but the alphapicker which even I use and all my family uses its the deal breaker....With over 6000 movies it takes a long time using the FASTFORWARD button. I do hope there will be a fix for this..What ever code plex uses for the alphapicker..emby need sto use it. I'll keep checking back from time to time to see if its been fixed...

kjhedges 54 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I have 6 Rokus that regularly stream media from my emby. I cant say that this is an issue for me. I have not heard of users saying about the aplhapicker, and my rokus on local network also have no problem with alphapicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can tell me what you have done to make the alpahpicker fast, please let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjhedges 54 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I use Emby Linux Server. The alphapicker i can scroll down and it goes straight to the letter I select. Even when I scroll down letters and go to far, I can immediately go back up and it finds the correct letter and loads immediately. I have done nothing to make it fast, it jsut is for me.
