There is a plugin in development led by @chef to do this. IIRC it has stalled waiting for some underlying support from Emby to be added, but he would know for sure.

Plugin that will create a "Channel" of AppleTV+ Movies from a Trakt List. If you know how to do plugins the format to customize is fairly simple. I'm going to do a more "user customizable" solution where you can add the into to the plugin screen. But this is a working example of what can be done. https://github.com/bakes82/Emby.AppleTv Emby.AppleTv Plugin for Emby that will create a channel that contains all the movies in your library based on a trakt list for AppleTv+ Movies. Trakt List Used: https://trakt.tv/users/istoit/lists/apple-tv?sort=rank,asc Home Screen Channel View Channel Setup

Something either on the device or on your server at the time, may have been blocking the UDP messages.

I will surely do this tomorrow and thank you but in answer to your question @Luke when I'm trying to access the Emby server outside the network, I get a Select Server scre6, and then when I choose Oceanwalk_NAS I just get the Connection Failure error message. it's possible that my Synology DS is blocking rather than my router I dunno but will do this Trace tomorrow that @cayarshas suggested and report back. thanks both for your help once again

That is only in beta right now but, yes, that will be the way in the next release.

The last post in that thread was less than a week ago: Paul

Hi, if this were 2010 we might make this a high priority, but alas, it's 2021 and not many people are using .iso files anymore. So the reality is, while we never say never, this is unlikely to happen. I would suggest converting to mkv video files for the best possible experience.

Yes, For me worked, I downloaded the same version and reinstalled without removing the one I had. Just like a normal update, without loosing anything. (Anyway, it is always good to make a backup just in case)

Please wait till I update the beta version or use the experimental version from the first posting here. Actually, this experimental version will be next beta.

Just to share an update, Just followed @TalNum suggestion and did actually worked. I reinstalled the .37 beta package (since I had .37 before and couldn't go back to .36) and the VAAPI shows up again.

@Mickelebof J'ai mis une redirection de port 80 sur mon NAS et ça fonctionne. J'ai fait une redirection du port 80 sur le port 80 de mon NAS. Même pas eu besoin de faire un port croisé. Encore merci

Avec plaisir. On se tient au courant si notre problème commun se règle

Merci beaucoup Max !!

Bonjour, j'ai le même soucis et d'autres aussi. Hardware Acceleration Issue - Synology - Emby Community Si j'ai bien compris, il suffirait de faire une mise à jour d'EMBY (par exemple passer en Beta) et le problème serait réglé. Personnellement je n'ai pas encore essayé.

Roku does not have a web browser. We cannot launch an intent correctly. For YouTube video to play within Emby on Roku would violate their TOS which states that you can only "embed" their video player (which contains their content) into your application. It is usually easy to do this if the application supports javascript. The Roku does not. This makes it impossible to embed. The only way is to pass the user into the YouTube application and launch YouTube into the trailer requested and begin immediate playback. After this trailer is finished playing the YouTube app does not return the user back into the Emby application where the user previously was. The user is now inside YouTube. That does not provide a seamless experience. It is clumsy at best. That clumsy behavior increases the "bounce rate" for Emby. The bounce rate is when users leave your application before playing any video. A high bounce rate is a sign of an application that does not attract users. It lowers your value to search having a high bounce rate. This puts you lower on the search results farther down in ranking. We do not want this to occur. The fact you are stuck in YouTube along with the bounce rate issue means this would hurt Emby more than it would promote it. Hopefully everyone understands.

Roku will not allow YouTube trailers to be launched within Emby. They have to go thru the YouTube channel. So url trailers are disable only in Emby Roku clients.

@PuffyToesToo @Spaceboy I'll pm you a test version this weekend with some extra logging about the max runtime option for MusicVideos. @PuffyToesToo If you play something on your Roku (preferable a channel without bumpers), take a look at Emby's transcoding folder. A text file "VirtualTV#_#######.txt" should be there. Please open it and tell me how many lines starting with "file" are there? No i'm using a Fisher-Yates variant with a random number generated by System.Security.Cryptography: public static void Shuffle<T>(this IList<T> list) { int n = list.Count; while (n > 1) { n--; int k = RandomNumberGenerator.GetInt32(n + 1); T value = list[k]; list[k] = list[n]; list[n] = value; } }

On the OS die I suggest using what you're comfortable with. Linux and Windows are both fine for this job and there really won't be any value in introducing needless complications from an unfamiliar OS. As for the rest, the answer is it depends a lot on needs you haven't listed. What is the purpose of the build? Are you serving your media to your house or are you planning for users outside your primary residence? How many users will there be? If you're serving users outside the primary residence, what is your upstream bandwidth? What format are you storing your media in? What are the playback devices you'll be using?

Let us know how you get on. Thanks.

How would this explain the same issue occurring for those already on beta having to update to a newer beta version just to remedy this problem? The common denominator is clearly DSM updates impacting Emby's ability to see Synology's hardware. Allow me to illustrate using my timeline: Emby server 4.5.4.0 working fine on DSM firmware 6.2.3-25426 Update 3. Update DSM firmware to version 6.2.4-25554. No changes to any Emby settings before, during, or after the DSM update. Immediately notice CPU spiking to 99%. Find that all hardware encoders/decoders are missing from the Transcoding screen. Update to Emby server beta version 4.6.0.30. All encoders/decoders return to normal, without any other intervention other than updating to Emby beta. Update DSM firmware to version 6.2.4-25556. No changes to any Emby settings before, during, or after the DSM update. Immediately notice CPU spiking to 99%, again. Find that all hardware encoders/decoders are missing from the Transcoding screen, again. Update to Emby server beta version 4.6.0.36. All encoders/decoders return to normal, without any other intervention other than updating to a newer version of Emby beta. Just as a means of showing that the DSM update is the culprit, I also updated to Emby server beta version 4.6.0.37 today and none of these issues arose again. I am by no means a developer of any platform, but I am unsure why these DSM updates, both major and minor, are not being highlighted as the culprit behind these problems that other users and I are experiencing.

Hi, Same problem here with my 918+. Just after update DSM to 6.2.4-25556, the HW VAAPI was gone.

Hi @Luke , I notice the changes of /dev/dri/renderD128, maybe this is the root cause, I also update the DSM version. after DSM upgrade the permission of renderD128 to be crw------- 1 root root 226, 0 Apr 7 16:04 card0 crw------- 1 root root 226, 128 Apr 7 16:04 renderD128 Then update emby spk, the permission become crw-rw---- 1 root video 226, 0 Apr 7 16:27 card0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 226, 128 Apr 7 16:27 renderD128 After DSM upgrade, nas change the driver permission, so emby cannot read it , just my 2 cents.

Since some people can be both singers and actors, it would be great if the artist and person could be linked so we can see all of that 1 persons songs, movies, tv shows, and anything else that they've done in their careers.

If your problem is your current media structure AND you're comfortable moving files and folders around then the Auto Organize plug-in might be worth a look. The plug-in takes files from a staging folder and can move and rename them into a library using the preferred structure. The current media should not be part of any library and neither would the staging area. If you've created libraries for the existing media you can remove and create new empty libraries. If the media is on a single disk volume or drive then the plug-in can move instead of copy, so it's pretty quick. Or at least keep the staging and libraries on the same disk for faster moves. I don't think the plug-in handles music and don't know if renaming is optional. If you decide to try it and have enough storage then work from copies of the files to be safe, at least for the first few passes.

You're probably not asking me, but you could try posting a screenshot of some files to show some existing names, or have a go a organising, say 3 or 4 TV series and see how that goes.

Wow, this could be really useful. I look forward to watching the future development of this plugin. Thank you.
