Rowlett 9 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) This worked for me too here in the uk - only downside, lost all UK based apps (even though they are installed previously). Sure others wont be bothered though, nice share! Edited December 30, 2016 by Rowlett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njf 4 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) OK, I've tried that. First, I think there is a stage missing in your guide. I think the sequence to press is mute, return, vol up, ch up, mute. However, I have to search for Emby as it does not show up in any of the tabbed sections. When I click on it I keep getting Unable to connect to the Samsung server. Please try again later. (AS415). (I am logged in to my Samsung account.) That is different from the error I get when I try to download BBC iPlayer, which I know won't work. That just gives an error Unable to download.Please try again later (Code:227). What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't Emby show up in one of the tabs of apps? By the way, I have tried both with and without using openvpn to use a US source. TIA.

Abobader 2945 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Why not just change the region of apps store? Works for me in AU on K series. Was a fairly painless exercise. Go to live tv select menu select setup continue setup but before accepting app store agreement press mute, vol up, ch up, mute. menu pops up to change region select USA. didn't worry about re-scan just selected no signal available.(kept the channels tuned) Waited for it to install all other apps Install emby Connect to server. done. Well done! I could not manage to find "Emby" until I search it and happens to be in "What New", I miss it becouse of the icon, hardly notice it was emby Down-side to this, it do not accept my Samsung account any more, always say incorrect id/password.

njf 4 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 OK, I think I fixed it - in case someone else has a similar problem. I had changed my region to a different one and then back to US again. Still the same error. However, I then went to the Smart Hub menu on the TV and selected Reset Smart Hub. After it did it's stuff reinstalling apps, suddenly Emby appeared in What's new and I've just installed it! I then used my old Samsung account login and that still seems to be working.

Abobader 2945 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Good day, All done here, I manage to login to my Samsung account, the trick, to simply type the full email, I was simply pickup the cached suggestion one, for that the problem, after typing all, it login. BTW, I know about the remote trick in the past, but tried it before, it did not work, I tried it today based on constantcharge suggestion, I just need it to go one page back, then again, till it work. @@Luke I test the arabic srt (external) and it did not work. Also, it seem it transcode as well, not direct play for 4k movies. I will test more and give better feedback. Well done. My best 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcg 874 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) If I switch to US to install Emby, does that remove non-US region specific apps (such as BBC iplayer)? Edited December 31, 2016 by cmcg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njf 4 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) If I switch to US to install Emby, does that remove non-US region specific apps (such as BBC iplayer)? Unfortunately, it does. I've decided for the moment I prefer Emby to BBC iPlayer in my apps. Will change my region back when Emby is available on Tizen worldwide. I will use my Roku for iPlayer until then.

AgileHumor 123 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Installed this on 4 TV's this holiday and it worked great! Thanks @@Luke! Great Job! One request, can't find an option to turn off theme music/video. Was really slow over the remote internet. Repro: Logon TV Shows Libarary i.e "Vikings" Series 20 Second Wait/Spinner then backround theme video would start playing. Other than that (and it crashed a few times loading the theme video while navigating too quickly)...it seems to work well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37071 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 1.0.18 has launched and is a minor update that improves the skip forward & back functions and also updates to the latest Emby Theater interface. Hopefully by the end of the week we will submit 1.0.19, and this will add lots of HEVC direct play improvements. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abobader 2945 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Good day Luke, Well done, I do not know how Samsung app work, but I force to delete it then reinstall it back to get the latest ver. I notice better control in operational on the media, but when I go to some large library and go to some movie details, scroll down to the actors list, then going up and it hung there, I force to restart the app, other than that, it look better.

Abobader 2945 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Forgot to add, still as the others reported, back to in setting for theme do not work, need to click on profile then home again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadel 7 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Where can I see the version number please? And what were the skip improvements? I'm hoping something like the Plex app. Up for +10 minutes down for -5. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 the skip improvements were very minor. to skip forward and back using the user defined increments, we were using a seek command, but there is a native tizen command that we switched to instead. the version number is currently not displayed in the app, we'll have to add that, for now you would have to check in your tizen installed apps list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the quick reply. Perhaps the skip change will fix the endless spinning icon issue, finger crossed. There is no version number in the apps list that I can see. I can see for other apps but not emby. I uninstalled / reinstalled so i guess i would have the new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abobader 2945 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Good day, Go to App on your Samsung, then you will find Emby on what new section, click on it and move by the remote to the left and click on more, scroll down and you will see the latest ver and the ver you installed.

Luke 37071 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 We've submitted the update to improve direct play of high bitrate and 4K content. I will keep you guys posted on the status of the submission. Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Will chapter support like this be coming to the Tizen app at some time? Kind of cool and something I really miss about the Orsay app https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/43635-31272-osd-thumbnails/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
