CBers 6961 Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Has anyone with a J Series TV tried Emby Theatre on it via the web browser? Just wondered, as looking at getting a J Series TV for a bedroom, but would like you use Emby without having to plug any devices into it. Thanks in advance.
Luke 38844 Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 I don't know what letter series I have but u have a 2015 model for testing and the web app works well on it so it just needs to be packaged into an app. 3
CBers 6961 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Posted March 27, 2016 OK, thanks Luke. I might go out and buy the TV tomorrow then. I believe the 2015 model is J with 2016 a K. 2

Any timescales as to when a packaged app will be available please ?? Thanks.
CBers 6961 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Posted March 31, 2016 I was able to pick up the TV today, so I have had a play with ET via the browser. Needs a bit more work to make it more intuitive, but it plays stuff OK. 2
ronvp 92 Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 The browser option barely works..and the browser option is not really any good for a TV front end. I think we need to be patient until a developer creates an Tizen APP. In the mean time, you could co-install PLEX on the same server as EMBY, set it to use local fanart. It has a really good Tizen App.

Crestj 68 Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 I have a J series (UE48J5500) and the web browser route was too clunky for me as well. The TV does have DNLA and picks up Emby as a source. Browsing is fairly easy and it plays, it's just not super pretty like MCE, etc.

ronvp 92 Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) Any update on this please Luke? I use plex for my Samsung bedroom tv. their Tizen app is really good... Running plex and Emby on the same server is really no problem at all. Edited June 10, 2016 by ronvp
njf 4 Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Hi I've just discovered Emby and like it so far. Got the app on my F series TV but I also have a J series. Is there any update on an app for this one? I can't find any info on this.
