JDeLuca 2 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Is it possible to set Emby in Apple TV to show previews when fast forwarding? If not, do any of the other platforms support that like RoKu? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corey 312 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 By fast forward previews do you mean the image above the scrub bar that shows up? If that's the case than currently it's outside of our control. The Emby Apple TV app uses the built in native player for Apple TV and Apple TV will show those previews on supported formats.

Senna 368 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Is the new libmpv based player going to support live scrubbing with preview thumbnail, just like MrMC is doing right now, for almost all major formats like mkv ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37084 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 We're going to have to build that feature with the new player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senna 368 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 We're going to have to build that feature with the new player. Looking forward to that, presuming it is on Emby's road map for the libmpv based Emby app for the Apple TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14916 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Looking forward to that, presuming it is on Emby's road map for the libmpv based Emby app for the Apple TV To set expectations - our primary focus with the new player engine will be to improve playback and reduce the need for transcoding. I expect we will actually lose some bells and whistles in the early going (things like this that the native player does for us) and gain better playback. Then, after that, we will look to add in the bangles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senna 368 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I know the drill concerning new implementations in software, so no rush Now I know that this feature is on your road map for later implementation when the time is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDeLuca 2 Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Thank you everyone for the info, and yes, I was talking the image above, and seems to be what your talking about. So how about the Roku? Is this feature available on that platform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14916 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 So how about the Roku? Is this feature available on that platform? If you install the Roku Thumbnails plug-in and allow it to create these previews on your media (this is fairly resource-intensive). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
