The default will need to be used.

May i please ask you to clarify what changes i need to perform on the Default profile in order to work for my TV model?

I gave up on Emby as i was not able to get it working .......but will try now again with 4.4.3 and let you know..... Is there anything new in 4.4.3 with regards to the profiles?

Luke 37060 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Not specifically, I just wanted to be sure you were trying on the latest version. To answer the original question, yes a profile would need to be designed for Philips devices based on what they support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
