jkasanic 12 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) I already have Emby unlocked on iOS and FireTV. I just replaced an older media streamer with an nVidia Shield TV Pro and I’m trying to connect to my UnRAID server for local playback only. I thought this would be free but I keep getting the unlock app or restore unlock option. Should there be a way to restore my Android (FireTV app) purchase? I really have no use for Premiere as I think this would also solve my issue. Edited December 21, 2020 by jkasanic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hi. Yes, these are all different stores (Amazon, Apple, Google) and we are required to offer these items through their respective stores. You say you have no need for Premiere but Premiere would give you all of these without having to unlock them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but if I’m not using the features of Emby Premiere then it’s a pretty hefty premium to pay. Have you considered offering a bundle of the apps for all platforms? I know it’s probably complicated by the fact they come from different stores. Also, there’s still a lot of literature on the web saying local access to your media is “free”. Seems a bit misleading.

Exactly where? We have never based premiere on local vs remote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably didn’t state it very well. This chart for example, should probably put an asterisk next to free to denote that you need a paid (unlocked) version of the app to do what’s labeled “free”. Anyway, I don’t want to sound ungrateful or spiteful with respect to Emby and what you guys have put together. I’ve been using it for quite a while and except for the occasional hiccup with the kodi add-on (hence why I was interested in looking at the Shield with Emby app to bypass Kodi), it has been a very nice product. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not correct. If it is in the "Free" column, then it is. Things that require an unlock are indicated that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
