markthulson 0 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I'm trying out Emby (with HDHomeRun prime tuner) as a replacement for Windows 7 Windows Media Center and have a couple of questions: 1) Is it possible to watch a show from the beginning while recording it? I can't seem to get that to work. 2) Is there a way to sort guide channels with the HDHomeRun favorite channels at the beginning? I checked the "Place favorite channels at the beginning" box in the guide box, but it didn't seem to work. I finally figured out that that feature is based on selecting favorite channels within Emby, not in the HDHomeRun web tool. The option to show only favorites, on the other hand, seems to be based on the HDHomeRun favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 1) Yes, please describe exactly what problem you are having. 2) You need to mark the channels as Favorites in Emby. Once you do that, they will sort to the top. Thanks and welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markthulson 0 Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 Thanks! 1) I got it to work. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong. 2) That's what I figured. Some way of marking favorites that isn't so tedious (say a checklist) would be nice. As it is, I have to click on a channel, mark it as a favorite, go back to the guide, and repeat.

Now, as you mouse over each one, a heart will become visible. Click the ones you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markthulson 0 Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 I don't see a heart when I mouse over a channel, just when I click on it to open it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 You don't see this heart? What browser are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markthulson 0 Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 With Chrome or Firefox in Windows 10, I don't see the heart when I mouse over the channel; but with Firefox in Linux Mint, I do see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markthulson 0 Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 I don't see it in Windows 10 Emby Theater either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2063 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I see the fav Icon on Windows 10 with Chrome 77 (web app) on both Beta and Stable servers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I'm running Chrome on Windows 10 as well. It is the web app though - not Theater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I don't see it in Windows 10 Emby Theater either. If the display mode setting in the app is TV mode, then you will not see it. If your primary input method is a mouse, then I would switch it to desktop mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
