Heard Kodi on fire has some problems there (not emby related, sorry) Yes I did use Dolby vision and it works well also I should mention no buffering at all. Of course key here is to have an up to date router helps at least wifi 6 does help which is what I use. I do not have wifi 6e. But with wifi 6 smooth. i should also mention there have been several updates to the stick since it was introduced and has helped. Bryan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katonag 3 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Is it possible to download a copy from the emby server for offline watch? We have several devices running Kodi with emby next gen. Some of these are mobile devices, like a tablet. I am looking for an easy way to store a copy of a selected movie or episode for offline usage.

Thumbs and backdrops have same aspect ratio but Posters have different aspect ratio that's why using Posters as thumbs looks very ugly. Have a look at first movie Gulmohar.

Does Gulmohar have a backdrop (or thumb)? Check it on Emby's WebUI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickmic 1344 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 (edited) OK, I'll check that. Only if both not exist, Kodi/the plugin should use poster/primary as fallback. Edited February 16 by quickmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olerocker 7 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Hi there and thanks for everyone's hard work on this addon. One question, should i turn off "update library at startup" from the kodi system menu ? Does the addon need this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olerocker 7 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Thanks. I currently use native mode for the addon, you mention though that addon mode is suggested. Is there an actual benefit in using addon mode vs native mode apart from the trancoding ? Would it make the addon function more reliably in this mode ?

quickmic 1344 Posted April 19 Author Share Posted April 19 (edited) Beside extra configuration for native mode, addon mode much better tested than native mode. Edited April 19 by quickmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
