BUG: Apple TV last version doesn't stop playing when exiting playback

[DarkStar1977 92]

Hi Emby Team

Since updated to the last version, when you're playing anything and you quit playing (by pressing back button on apple remote as done always), the audio of the video keeps playing until you try to play another thing (or the same thing again) or you kill the emby app from running on Apple TV.

Curiously if you try to play the same video the interface loop back to the previous screen.

The video below shows this issue:

 

Can u please fix it asap ¿?

I think this is an issue with tvOS 18.  Try restarting the Apple TV, you may even have to restart it twice then see if that's better.  It has resolved a few strange issues for a few people, including me.

I reboote the Apple TV device 5 times and the problem persists.

I have the same issue, and I restarted the device more than twice and nothing.

This is also happening to me after the update to tvOS 18. I've rebooted multiple times with no effect. (I even cried a little but it was impervious to my tears.)

I have the same issue on every AppleTV in the house with the iOS update.

Same issue here - since apple tvOS 18 update.

Resetting apple tv makes no difference, nor does reverting back to earlier emby builds.

Yeah resetting wont work, I have the same issue here with our tvOS boxes (all 4 of them).

Please fix! I started having this issue too and makes the whole experience a horrible one, can’t watch multiple things without closing the app completely

I found a temp workaround that SEEMS to work. If I stop something and it continues to play sound in the background, clicking play again actually stops it from playing in the background. Same with Live TV. When backing out of a live tv stream, it continues to play in the background almost EVERY time when a user backs out of the live stream. When you click Play again, it actually stops the stream. I know its not a proper solution & annoying but that's what I've been doing now for the past few weeks to at least stop something from playing when i want it to stop....

This is already shown in the video I publised but not a solution or a workaround.

Some users, just quit the app or shut down their tv, expecting that Apple TV goes off too (if remotes are linked), as a result, their apple TV keeps on and the server keeps streaming the video until it finishes ....

I’m seeing this too. Super annoying unfortunately

The solution now is to use the beta version 1.9.0(2) to exit the automatic closing of video sound.

I don't have access to apple tv beta channel.

I will have to wait to stable release in Spain. 

Thanks

Hi, this is resolved in the next update to Emby for Apple TV. Thanks.

Solved in 1.9.0
