wingnut144 0 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) I am trying to download a movie from my Emby server to a Amazon Fire tablet. I've installed the client, and can see the movie I want. When I click the download, it lets me specify the quality. Once I press the download button, nothing seems to happen, how do I know what is going on?? In the 'download & sync' section all I see is the movie I selected, and "ready to transfer". Should it not be transferring it? Edited November 21, 2018 by wingnut144 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legallink 187 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 This is usually a timing thing. You have to leave the app running for long enough to download and movies aren’t small. Try downloading something small like a music file. If that works, more likely than not, you didn’t wait long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut144 0 Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) Is there some sort of indicator for media that has been downloaded to a tablet when I'm browsing? I know in Plex, there is a way to only show downloaded content And the app has to be running? It won't download if the app is closed but the tablet is on??

legallink 187 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I’m not sure I understand the question. When you have downloaded content, the app will show “My Downloads”. Also make sure that whatever app your using supports downloads. You can also see what media has been downloaded on the server in the admin section. As far as app closed vs open, it depends on what you mean by open vs closed. It doesn’t have to be open as in the primary app running. Sync will run in the background usually. I just meant you can’t do a hard close on the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
