When trying to play a movie, after clicking on the movie icon a blank screen appears with parts of the Emby interface is at the top. The only way to fix it is to force a restart of the Emby app by turning off the TV. This has happened a number of times. See the attached log.

That didn't work very well.  This is more readable.

So just a question, after you launch the app, does this occur the first time you try and play something, or is it when you try and play something directly after playing another title?  Is it just movies, or TV shows/episodes as well?

I believe this was the first movie I played. It hasn't happened often enough to remember if happened with TV shows. Next time it happens I can try a few things and report back.
