Here are the highlights: Resolve sporadic database locked errors (may require an additional server restart) Various fixes related to non-standard episode naming Fix library options sometimes appearing to not save Fix regression in xmltv series identification (requires running the live tv guide refersh) Fix clicking see all on next up showing an empty list Fixes for GameBrowser Fix multi-select remove from playlist when removing the same track with multiple selections Improve metadata editor lock icon You can learn about the original 4.6 release here: View the full article

Thank you very much for this tip- This command: find /home/pi/readyshare/movies > /dev/null led me to find that one specific directory in my movies folder seems to have been causing the issue. I don't know why... but the output of this command said: find: ‘/home/pi/readyshare/movies/Coco (2017) 1080p ’: Not a directory That directory couldn't be opened from the Pi for some reason. But my Mac had no issue opening that directory and viewing its contents. The permissions that my Mac saw of of the offending folder: drwxrwxrwx@ 1 jhays staff 16384 May 17 10:48 Coco (2017) 1080p So I created a new folder, moved the contents to that one, and deleted the offending folder. I then went to Emby server settings and initiated Scan Library Files- success! Emby started pulling down meta data for my movies. Now testing on my AppleTV- I'm still seeing some cases where transcoding is initiating and failing on certain files. But others are playing fine without transcoding. That seems like a separate issue- I'll do some further testing and open a new thread if needed. For now I'll consider this issue fixed- thanks to everyone who offered support, and major thanks to Q-Droid for his big hint that helped me out.

Could you please add a Webhook for the New content added notification?

We'll take a look at it. Thanks for reporting.

Alright, I can provide a quick update. As of Server 4.6.1.0 Emby is showing up properly in Bigscreen and I can play content through Bigscreen. The only lingering issue that I can find is that progress is not synced between what is viewed in Bigscreen through DLNA and Emby itself. I tested by watching about 15 minutes of a movie, stopping and waiting 15 minutes, and then checking Emby. It still shows that the particular movie has not been played and it doesn't show an option to resume. If this can be sorted, then Bigscreen will 100% be viable as an option to enjoy Emby content in VR.

I wouldn't fix it. I like the idea of a cover art for the album and separate art for the discs. This will be really nice for music boxed collections.

Oh, interesting. So in theory it shouldn't happen any more. I didn't see that particular change listed in the 4.6 patch notes, among the other subtitle changes. Awesome. Thanks for the help guys

No I don't think that 's necessary. 4.5 has an issue where if there is a problem with the subtitle extraction or conversion, it may leave an empty/partial file in the cache folder which will cause it to get used next time and show no subtitles. 4.6 has corrected this.

Perhaps the question should be more generic: Do you rename movie titles that are not in your native language to your native language? In that case my answer is yes. Title is always in my native language, although sometimes the translation is horrible: Con faldas y a lo loco = Wearing skirts and doing the crazy thing. Nothing to do with Some like it hot.

If anybody wants to help to speedup the Notifiarr Emby support please add a webhook that points to: https://notifiarr.com/notifierTest.php?testing=emby It will send payload information to the developers server, once he has payloads for all these events, Emby support can be added.

I've run Emby now for over a year and I have to say it's been awesome. It's become the only media server I use now and while I do see Jellyfin making some progress, to me it's not even a choice. From my experience as a program manager on some rather large software applications, I have to say it makes me even more impressed by Emby. @Luke , @ebr and the rest of the team spend countless hours working on the code, backend stuff and more, and yet still always have time to pop in here and talk to all us. There's only 24 hours in the day to handle such a large effort and still they focus on their users. That's awesome and not the easiest thing to do. Is there room for Emby to improve? Absolutely. Does the team know this and strive to always improve the product? From my experience, the answer is a simple yes. The whole team here at Emby has been awesome to work with and please know your efforts never go unnoticed!

You've grown up with watching live tv but on television only runs garbage? You have a big library but don't know what to watch next? Then this for you: "VirtualTV" - my new live tv plugin that allows you to create custom channels based on conditions of your Emby library content. What's missing: Maybe codec conditions Known problems: Needs Emby Premier to work (Playback) Emby's live tv and playback api is very limited, so i've had to make some detours to get things working. The plugin has two general playback modes: "continous" and "playlist" playback. With "continous" mode you can also choose between "live", which bahaves like real live tv or "archive", which plays the videos from the start. In "Continuous" mode multiple videos are queued and concatenated to one big file with the help of ffmpeg. To make this happen every video in the queue has to have some common features (video and audio codec). That's why it often happens that the video also has to be transcoded by ffmpeg. For transcoding the plugin relies on Emby's internal transcoding engine. If there's a problem, not uncommon with hardware acceleration enabled, the plugin also has a problem. Nothing i can do about it. The availability of subtitle tracks is mostly dependant of the Emby user playback settings. In continous playback mode only one (the default) subtitle track can be used and this one has to be burnded into the video (transcoding takes place). In "Playlist" playback mode the videos are pushed as a playlist to the Emby clients. It's like you would play your videos directly from your libraries. This way you get all the features you are used to. Audio and subtitle selection, pause, skipping around and similar things. "Native" playback method was created by the Emby Devs. Similar to Playlist playback it will play the real library videos, but with the big difference that playback is purely initiated by the client app, without any remote command execution. This is why it also works for Roku devices on a WAN network. And although the real videos are played, the whole thing is treated like live TV. This means that channel zapping is possible and no dialogs for playing the next episode are displayed. Unfortunately, the new playback method does not yet support all features. As the name "Archive" suggests, it will currently always start all videos from the beginning. In addition, only very few Emby apps automatically advance to the next video. If you want it to be improved even further, each of you should raise your voice in this thread. To get things started install the plugin via Emby's plugin catalog and restart Emby. Setup your channels with a name and number and choose your playback mode. In the channel conditions you'll have to select an Emby account. This account is used to get library access, respect parental rating, reading watched states and selecting the stream language. At least one textual input field of the conditions has to be filled to get some program data. Fields with an asterisk are either evaluated with an "AND" or "OR" condition among each other. Finally, if you've chosen "Continous Playback" for one of you channels, take a look at the transcoding settings. Save your channel line up and manually trigger a "Guide Refresh". Now have fun! Version History: After a plugin update, always clear your browser cache. If your settings still don't load in the config screen, you have to move the "VirtualTV.xml" out of ...\plugins\configurations and restart Emby. Start from scratch. 2.0.0.0 Unlimited number of channels; New playback method "Native (Archive)"; New security concept for the Export API 2.0.2.0 Performance improvements to Guide Refresh; Preview for Add/Edit Channels; Option to disable Program indicators 2.0.3.0 Fixed missing Playlist sort order for some Content Types; Added support for Seasons with Content Source Collections 2.1.0.0 Selectively enable channels for specific users; Create copies of existing channels; Ordered unwatched episode playback 2.1.5.0 Added option to (auto)enable channels on a specific date range; Bug fixing

Be able to create playlist based on a certain criteria, like genre and or year, in order to create a dynamic playlist that it refreshes automatically when new content is added. This way you can for example, create a tv comedy playlist from the 90's, or a new sci-fi Movies playlist. Some other criteria for rules could be the rating, watched/unwantched, score, tags, language, audio codec, etc The possibilities could be endless

Tried to search for this feature request but couldn't find it. It would be very good to be able to sort and filter the content of collections. I have some collections with a lot of movies (1001 movies you have to see before you die, Criterion collection, etc). As of today you can sort and filter the collections themselves but you can't sort and filter the content. So if I want to find an unseen movie from my 1001 collection I will have to scroll through a lot of movies. In the collection view you also separate categories (movies, tv, ...) and it would be great to be able to choose to not separate them also.

Hi Emby community. I want to share my first plugin, it´s the SubdivX subtitle provider Buenas comunidad de Emby. Les quiero compartir mi primer plugin, es nada mas y nada menos que para el famoso SubdivX. Latest: Version 1.0.2 Old: Version 1.0.1

It seems to me that Emby has progressively removed features over the years. I discovered recently that I can no longer view my movies by Studio (this seems to be a recent change). Viewing by Actor was removed quite some time ago (https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/26944-missing-a-menu-option/). Can these features please be re-implemented? And can y'all PLEASE put in the changelog when a feature has been disabled or removed so that the end user can determine if upgrading will remove functionality previously depended on? Thx!

Emby Server 4.6 is currently rolling out. Here are the highlights. Rewritten Music Scanning This 4.6 release will rescan your music library. We apologize if this causes any inconvenience. This solves a lot of our previous music-related shortcomings, specifically: Any folder structure now accepted, no matter how clean or dirty Albums are now fully tag driven and are no longer tied to folders Local metadata for albums will still be supported, and local metadata for artists will be back as well. This will be the only feature of a music library that will require a predictable folder structure. If you enable these options you'll need to have an artist\album\track folder structure, otherwise you'll likely end up seeing nfo files and images in unexpected places. You'll need to use your music library options to indicate your music folder structure if you'd like to use local artwork. Preserve original order of tagged genres, artists, album artists, tags, etc. Support multiple musicbrainz id's tagged on songs and albums Support for composers Library metadata options for artists now working again (and still working for albums) The Folders tab is now an actual folder view and will work properly as such Music Composer Support This was mentioned above, but if your audio files are tagged with composer values, then you'll now see a new Composers tab in your music library: Improved Database and User Interface Performance All Emby apps should feel snappier than ever thanks to a plethora of new improvements in your Emby server database. Reworked Collection Storage Model Collections have now been reworked to be based on the set tag in your nfo files (if you use nfo). The popular AutoBoxSets plugin is now a built-in feature: HDR Tone Mapping When Transcoding Check out the new options in the server transcoding menu! If you have a server machine powerful enough, you can now enjoy tone mapping when transcoding. No more washed out colors ! Combined Next Up and Continue Watching Hopefully this is not a controversial one, but our out of box behavior is now a Netflix-style Continue Watching list, with everything together: If you prefer the old Next Up section, you can use your Emby user home screen settings to add it back as a configuration section. New Live TV Channel Management Screen This is a new WMC-inspired channel management screen that will allow you to quickly disable channels you don't want, drag and drop re-order, edit channel names, channel numbers, and map channels to guide data. Just click on a channel to edit the options: Support for Live TV Channel Groups (via Tags) Use the above editor to add tags to channels, and now you'll see a new Tags tab in your Live TV section. Automatic importing of groups in m3u tuners is also supported. You can even group your channel display into Tags if desired: Improved Performance of Live TV Guide Refresh The live tv guide refresh process for all live tv should be slightly improved (5-10% faster). But if you're using xmltv guide data, you can expect major, dramatic improvements in the neighborhood of about 70% faster. To give you an example of the improvement, on a guide with 4000 channels, the guide data refresh has gone from roughly 2.5 hours to 45 minutes. Multiple Channel Logo Support Using Emby Guide Data, the server now downloads multiple logos per channel in different colors. This way our apps can choose the most appropriate logo based on your chosen color scheme in the user interface. If you don't use Emby Guide Data, you can still configure these logos manually using the image editor. Multi-Select List Items Lists now have the same multi-select management features that you've already grown accustomed to in poster views. Multi-Select Filtering When you filter by genres, tags, studios and other criteria, you can now select multiple. New User Profile Options to Control Remembering Track Selections For both audio and subtitles, you can now control whether or not track selections are remembered, as well as clear your remembered tracks anytime you wish. New Field Display Options The 3-dot menu above lists has been enhanced to allow new fields to be displayed: This allows you to see ratings in lists if desired. New and Improved Image Editor It comes with the following improvements: Dedicated options to set an image from a url All image slots visible in the editor to allow you to easily see what can be customized Easy drag and drop backdrop reordering New Live Button in Live TV Guide As you scroll ahead in time, now you can easily jump back to the live time with the press of a button. Live TV Programs Grouped in Suggestions and Search You'll now see Shows and Movies grouped as one single entry, rather than separate entries for every single airing. When you click on a show, you'll then see all of the showing for it: This will make it easier to find shows and movies that you'd like to watch and record. Improved Single Channel Screen Display The single channel listings not only perform better, but now also display much more information than before. Remove from Continue Watching Would you like to get something out of continue watching, but without having to lose your watch progress? Now you can: This will remove it from the Continue Watching menu, and it will reappear if you start watching again. Context Menu Improvements The addition of the title and poster should help make the menus a little more fun to use. Improved DLNA Support DLNA fans will appreciate the following enhancements: Improved device discovery Improved ability for other devices to discover your Emby Server Greater compatibility with more devices More efficient communications, less chatter on your network between Emby Server and your devices Auto-detection of supported audio and photo formats. No profiles needed if your device is also a digital media renderer (DMR) ! Supporting this for video playback is a much more complex task but we plan to incorporate this in future updates. Other Improvements Support multi-select remove from playlist/collection Improve Linux QuickSync support Adjust extracted images for HDR videos Add favorites to context menu Add mark played to context menu Run sqlite optimize on server shutdown Unify live tv channel sorting options in all places (guide, channels tab, on now, etc) Rework display of locked fields in metadata editor Support special episodes in Continue Watching & Play All Add hidden config switch to optimize databases on shutdown Improve detection of supported formats for Dlna devices Include all subtitle streams with conversion and download features, when possible Prefer D3D11 QuickSync codecs by priority Add h264_mmal decoder Improve 3D detection from file names Support SXXEXX episode numbers in xml tv guide data Ensure proper handling of yuv422p10 color format Improve Dlna device detection Significantly reduce Dlna message chatter with devices on the network Support series-id tags from xmltv Support discnumber audio tag in addition to disc Make determination of series recording path a little smarter about finding existing series in the library Restore death date on person detail screen Default folder browsing to list when all items are audio tracks Improve dynamic data refreshing on detail screen Add adult metadata library option Move option to save metadata as hidden files to per-library option Sanitize data from metadata editor to prevent accidental user error such as trailing spaces Update scheduled task logging to try and avoid preventing Synology NAS servers from being able to sleep Improve MMAL codec support Improve Roku remote control support Rework device access with new user permission to hide users from login screens on devices they've never signed into before Support episode backdrops in season folder Support extras in playlists Add HDR info to video stream titles Check first IP address of x-forwarded-for Have real-time monitor ignore .DS_Store Prefer Artist tag over Artists when there is only one artist Improve handling of invalid content-type header when downloading images Add home videos landing screen option Support clicking individual text items in list items Add profile checking for MP2Video hardware decoders Support playback speed control during audio playback Add button to clear filters when no results are returned Add Nvidia NVDEC decoder variant for HEVC VAAPI: Use color formats from detection Prevent ffmpeg hw processing of 10bit when device doesn't support it Support EP.01 episode naming Resolve slow file read/write performance on Windows Improve recovery from invalid configuration in the lan networks setting Improve detail screen backdrop display Make media info visible accessible in TV display mode Reduce messaging from server to android and iOS apps causing the app background processes to run Show songs on artist detail screen Add delete, download and preview functions to external subtitle tracks in media info section Support downloading subtitles during video playback Support manipulating the play queue of remote controlled players Update same time recording threshold to 15 minutes Improve local network address detection Block windows 8 & 2012 from using http2 Add http version to server log Improve subtitle track selection when always show subtitles is selected Expand artist split whitelist Improve ability of other devices to discover emby server New search interface for mobile and desktop Add top results section to search Improve searching for songs using album name Bug Fixes Fix rare case of tuner being left open following a recording with a series whose name ends in a dot Fix episode images being saved with incorrect file name Fix custom collection images reverting to default auto-generated images Fix repeated unzipping in xmltv provider, causing excess disk space to be consumed Fix genre screen occasionally being empty depending on where you came from Add additional fixes for downloading txt format subtitles Fix odd, alternating behavior when refreshing metadata while replacing images Fix incorrect conversion job status being reported when converting Various fixes for codec level detection Fix key presses affecting video OSD while popup dialogs are open and have focus Fix remote control restarting playback in some cases Fix custom genre images being replaced Fix play all/shuffle on collections comprised of folders Fix successful audio conversions misinterpreted as failures Fix Nvidia HEVC level detection Fix interlaced video being incorrectly stream copied with HLS Fix remote play of playlists being sorted by name Fix webp image support not being used in certain cases Fix repeated subtitle downloads of .sub format Fix undefined dlna display name Fix channel logos intermittently disappearing while scrolling the guide in Firefox Fix incorrect iOS scroll after cancelling context menu Fix artists added to collections not showing

Can you please add the ability to lock "Overview"? The new update (4.6.0.50) has taken that option out. I edit a lot of of Overviews and wouldn't like those to change back. I don't want to have to lock all meta info, because that info I am fine with it being updated. Thanks

Added.

that's good to know, thanks! If I remember correctly Emby was passing through the links directly if they were converted to ts. But that's quite a long time ago, will need to check it out again if that update comes in.

If you don't specify it, it defaults to 2:2, I thought this was daemon:daemon almost everywhere, but I guess it's bin:bin on your distro (on mine bin:bin is 1:1).

Oh man, let me give you a kiss! I was already trying to figure out a way to block user-agents lol Thanks!

You can restrict the access of your users to specific devices/apps in the Dashboard -> Users -> Access That is what you are looking for, I guess.

This will be caused by your file naming and directory structure, so what is that? What is the library type? What is the directory structure? How are the files named? One issue that won't relate to the above is there is no such show in the available metadata providers. Tom & Jerry on TVDB, for example, only has seasons through the 60s. Your goal won't be supported by the available data.

OK, Thanks for the info. Should I add that to Feature Request? I edit a lot of Overviews and usually lock them so they don't get changed. I'd hate to have to reedit them again.

It all depends if the title is in one of the languages I read. If it is I leave it alone if it is not then I change it. (Sometimes I change some titles that I can read because the script for the written language is hard for me to read on my big screen TV.) Also there are a good number of people on here that are from countries that do not have English as their primary language. So what, exactly, do you mean by foreign?

That is true if and only if you limit yourself to this universe. In other universes "time" could be completely different or, maybe, time is the same but people from certain universes have the ability to ignore time if it becomes "inconvenient." Nobody has, as far as I know, verified that Luke, EBR and the others are actually human and from this universe. No normal "human" could maintain the hours they appear to function and still remain functional. I "assume" they are actually members of the "good" races that have visited us in the past. Everybody "thinks" the "aliens" are from distant planets or even galaxies but it is easier to travel between universes that between stellar systems in this one. "Sometimes I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe."

Thanks for the info. I've passed this along to our package developer so that he can comment on it.

Updated! thanks

I can also confirm that gapless playback does not work. There is always a gap between tracks. Can the developers comment? Searching this forum shows that this discussion has been going on for years :-(. I have thousands of hours of live recordings, and this interruption every song change is intolerable. I really like Emby over Plex, but this is becoming a deal breaker. Running Emby for IOS - whatever version is current. The server is running on Linux and is 4.6.0.50. The network connection between iPhone and server is solid, about 50 Mbps. Latency is about 22 ms. This should not be an issue.

yeah its working now, thanks again

ProMace - see this thread: Emby next gen - Kodi - Emby Community Emby Next Gen is the Matrix version of Emby4Kodi. I've been using it for a while now, and for the most part, it works well. In a lot of ways, better than the Leia version.

I don't have access to a Pi or mess with CIFS/SMB for Emby but you can try this to see if there is an access/permissions problem for the emby user. sudo su -s /usr/bin/bash emby find /home/pi/readyshare/movies > /dev/null Any output you get should point to an error. In the case of no output then it means the emby user was able to access movies and all sub-directories in that path. Then you can try this to cover more bases. find /home/pi/readyshare/movies -ls > /dev/null

For those interested: Thanks to @BaukeZwart for making me aware of the alternative, namely Notifiarr (GitHub - Notifiarr/notifiarr: Client for Notifiarr.com). It has great integration with Discord and notifications are highly customizable (fields, colors) and look really smooth. Currently not Emby compatible, but should be shortly, as per Dev. For those that can't wait that long (like me), atm it can be done via Sonarr (Webhooks) and Radarr (native support). 10ish minutes setup and off you go.

Yup, was just on Notifiarr Discord asking same, should be coming along shortly. Thanks again for making me aware of this excellent service, have both Sonarr and Radarr running, Notifications look great. Cheers

you just need to use it... Problem solved.

@quickmic Just to report. 1080p HEVC HDR is working fine now on Nvidia Shield Pro. Thanks.

Glad you got it figured out!

its not dead, just resting....

For the brave of you, here's the promised plugin: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/98353-migration-plugin/

Hi, you know that hash matches are sorted to show at the top of the list, right?

From a online metadata stand point for Collection I can see a the ability to choose a Community rating from the Parts, but from a custom collection stand point what would be used? But looks like @Lukewould have to make some adjustments as the api and the Emby saved json don't appear to have the same info. api saved json

For large emby media collections, then an SSD is recommended for the server/database - however, the media will playback just fine on any speed HDD.

Thanks, but honestly I think it makes the homepage a bit cleaner this way, I kinda like it. Just thought it was a bug or something (continue watching & next up became identical) before I noticed the topic on it in the beta section

But if you are still adding episodes to the removed series it will reappear and show the newest added item instead of where you actually left off. At least in my current test.

Sorry yes, I didn't explain that very well. When I put in the full postcode, I got the error. When I only put in the first part, it was fine. Sorry for confusion.

Too many problems playing high bitrate content.

That same argument can be used for Episodes and Songs.

Ok yes we'll have to add that. Thanks.
