jblaze12 8 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I could give this a shot but it's the illusion of choice that can be satiating. Remnants of my past life clicking around "finding" something an always-on system (live tv). This right here! Illusion of choice of content we already carefully collected and curated.

Raptor6L 23 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I remember reading about this last year. Was a great idea then and is still a great idea now. Hopefully someone with the necessary skills can pick this up and run with it!!! Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miniliQuid 84 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Sorry to say I cannot add my vote to this one. Basically ebr his first comment is in sync with mine. I never really understood the desire to take your organized library and turn it into a huge broadcast set of channels that you didn't actually have direct control over as far as what you watched when. For me, the whole reason I use a system like Emby is so that I am in complete control of what I watch when as opposed to things being randomly presented at set times. Now, having intelligent suggestions and smart playlists is definitely a good thing and we do plan to expand those features going forward and, if something like this garnered enough interest then no reason why we couldn't do it as well. I only watch TV when something is on that I would want to see but not have in my own collection. For everything else I watch what I want, when I want, without interruptions or waiting.

MainMonkey 0 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I would love this as well. I too find myself watching a lot of tv and movies I already own from live tv simply because it is on. and if I am ever in a position to where i can no longer afford cable it would be nice to have a fake version. I used PseudoTV for Kodi for a long time until the developer stopped updating it and it stopped working. and now that i am leaving kodi and going to Emby I really miss it and several of the other things kodi use to be able to do.
