We developing a dashboard (web) to watch movies or series together. Our proof of concept was successful and works as we wanted. Proof of concept: We have tested the proof of concept and are now continuing to expand the platform, which is of course linked to Emby. Tested functionality and implemented; Connect users with external dashboard (connect uid's) Link devices to user Make groups / invite other users Sync video with each other or group Resync in group Groupchat Possible ideas Discord connection (chat, sync, profile pictures) Discord auto voicechannel (only users who are in the group) Share this dashboard with the community Dashboard: Join room (select device): Active group session with chat: Will be updated!

I am working with old IPS dev about this for the new forum build, sort by vote and more other feature for this vote system we used. No, the new vote system (we used for a year now) will calculated total vote the author of the thread had, no matters what post the like come from in his thread for his posts only, that display in the threads view of the forum.

A buffer that large isn't feasible. Android uses memory management to determine when an application has become too greedy for resources. Once another application needs the RAM and has a higher priority the other process is forcefully terminated that runs in the background. When you increase the size of the buffer it increases the footprint in RAM that Android sees that app taking. Maybe it can break the buffer into a background process. Well that background process if it gets greedy will get killed pretty quick. That might be what is happening especially if you are playing on Mobile over cellular data. The signal may become too weak and the buffer reaches end. Playback stops. It doesn't rebuffer because it already failed the "max retries" attempt. That would happen if you are say driving while playing music. You lose signal. The signal doesn't come back quick enough. The maximum retries occurs. Not knowing Android entirely I am making assumptions. The maximum retries once the signal comes back may revive itself and try again. But I believe this isn't what is happen. When the signal gets poor the buffer erodes until playback must stop. Music streaming services use multi peering from colocations and have multiple geographies. Your Emby server has a single peering point with no colocation using a single geography.

That sounds great Abo - thanks for the update - I look forward to it.

question: why don't track additionally the tmdb id? talking about the next tvdb paying subscription many user will migrate to tmdb..so I think is time to invest in this provider a little more..

Hi, Since I am using more and more TMDb, (since tvdb is more and more a mess), I am missing a very important feature. tvdb had the feature of grouping stuff into aired, DVD and absolute, which is supported by emby. TMDb had also this feature. See this example for "La casa de papel" (Money Heist, Haus des Geldes): The Original Order is allways the "aired order" of the original country. "La casa de papel" was originaly released by "Antena 3" and was taken over by Netflix, which results in different episodes ordering, which is a mess. They solved it in episode grouping. This feature is missing from emby, but it's integrated in their API and is allready supported in other apps, like kodi. At least, Banana a TMDb Mod claims it, that it's supported by Kodi: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/71446-la-casa-de-papel/discuss/5e7032d84f9a99001152704f?page=1#5eb76872ca7ec6001f7c53cb Is it possible to add this feature into emby? It is the last scraping feature, I really really miss for TMDb on emby. It adds much flexibility and is overall a much better solution, than on tvdb with their aired, dvd and absolute order. Another great example is Dragonball Super: As you see, it adds much more flexibility for different regions over the world. It's in my own eyes a must have for emby!

Watching emby now on my cell phone, finally got it working. OMG that was painful, I feel like I just gave birth to a web certificate, will name it Lil Demon...

OK, should have read that closer! Thanks for the heads up.

He's referring to TMDB links on episode level, which atm are not scraped (or, at least, not displayed).

This custom node request and the global latest tv list use different api end points that is why they behave differently.

yes, you are right. this gave error 404 on my emby-server pc but from mobile phone it was ok to open. Yesterday I played around with encrypted DNS (DOT) in my router. It looks like this was blocking some websites. I had to switch back to 1.1.1.1 and everything is fine now.... sic bye Michael

Lol @cayars, this was literally within 2 seconds.

Hi, edit your TV Show library and turn on advanced up top. Here is the setting:

Hi, this would actually be a downgrade based on the versions. Normally we don't recommend going back and forth between server versions due to the changes that may have occurred between them. But right now the two versions are close enough that it won't be a problem. Please note, the Synology interface will not let you install a lower version, so I think you'll need to uninstall first.

sorry, you may ignore and close this. it looks like a problem with my inhouse DNS service.

Hi, yes correct on the presets. You can change the option from Yes to Advanced if you like. Advanced will show you which encoders/decoders it choose to setup for you.

Thanks.

Is there any progress on HEIC support or should we plan to continue with HEIC -> JPG conversion workarounds for the foreseeable future? Thanks!

Readability was never the issue, that was replying to Luke's statement "It's plain text for a reason, which is to make it easily readable." and me not understanding how would it be less readable with it having a background. Kindly read original post. Guess we just have different view of what is just fine and serves a purpose vs. what would look smoother. Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I can only second that we can agree to disagree.

Hi, there's currently no way to do this, but it's something we plan to address in future updates. Thanks.

@cayars thanks for reply. The issue is now solved. I had to grant the System Internal Emby User. Thanks for help me.

Hi, Do you already have the share setup on your Synology containing the media? Did you grant the System Internal Emby User read/write access to this share?

It is a memory management issue. Their garbage collection runs during video playback and its supposed to happen behind Vsync. Because all Roku run at 60fps. I can tell on the new Roku Express 4K+ that there is some unoptimized code running on it. There are certain things that run in a weird slowdown/speedup behavior. Like it isn't able to constantly keep 60 frames per second and has to chase to keep up. Roku needs to fix their ship. We can only trim the sails. We can't fix the rudder. They keep turning us and we keep having to trim sails and either jibe or tack our way out of it to stay on course. Sailing is a good analogy for this. Imagine you can only turn the ship by using sails while the captain gets to turn the rudder any damn way he pleases and you are expected to keep a straight course. It can be done but it is very difficult.

Sending you a PM right now.

Yes we're going to be looking at updating it soon. Thanks.

Tricky drop down does cause a bit of confusion. Glad you got it worked out!

Set the Halloween Theme and then uncheck sounds.

Yes I will PM you the URL, username and password in a few minutes to one of my test servers.

If I setup an account on one of my servers, would you mind testing against my server to see if it does the same?

I would assume then that it is tied to that particular Philips Oreo "flavor", as @cayars stated above, do report same in the appropriate beta section of the forum. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/forum/123-android/

If you use Emby's guide data (and maybe xml, not sure), you can assign it to all tuners or specific tuners. Make sure you map the channels, otherwise no listings will appear in the guide

You can sideload beta 2.0.31 from the testing area. Link is in the pinned post at the top there

Thank you very much for the investigation, that's a very device specific issue and almost impossible to test with my hardware. Yes, I'll add the feature to both version 5.x (beta) and 6.x experimental. I don't wanna push it in 5.x stable yet.

My wife said I am spending more money and time on my server than her so I might have to sleep with the server so if that's the case I might as well hook up the server. I have a 7.1 system in my living room The Video quality from Emby app on my TV is great but the audio from my TV thru my Receiver is just ok you mentioned about the Shield TV Pro so if I am getting this right I would download Emby to the Shield TV Pro and play it from there, connect the Shield TV Pro to my Yamaha Receiver which is connected to the TV and should get awesome audio.

For an example plugin you could check out the metadata provides in the lastfm plugin: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Last.fm

You clearly don't work for Nvidia then ...

I would say no benefit.

I just went & bought a cheap ssd. I'm going to download win 10 via usb & install in the pro liant. Dont care about speed because it will always be on. Hopefully this solves the problem.

I've had 4 HDD's and a SSD on a 650 watt psu with a 750ti and a AMD mobo and CPU and twice I ended up replacing the power supply. I finally made the HDD's all external.

My main emby server has a 550 watt power supply, Intel i5 & 4 hd for media, 1 ssd for windows & 1 hd for misc storage. I only use it for emby & recording, editing media, etc. I could fit the 2 extra hd in the dvd slots. I thought about ditching my misc drive & just putting that stuff on a usb stick & keeping it plugged in so I would only have to have 1 molex to SATA connector. My pro liant is old, it was what I used for media browser when I first started. The other thing i thought about is maybe just buying a cheap ssd, download windows 10 on a usb stick & load it onto the pro liant server. I dont care about running slow since it's always on & only serves as additional slots for media. Do you guys think this might be a simple solution?

I bought an over kill PSU years a go. It was a EVGA 850. But the thing has not died, and it has been running for at least 8 years straight. That thing has run 6 spin drives, 1 solid state, a five port USB 3 card, and a 1650 GPU... 24 hours a day, non stop.

You can use his user permissions to cap his remote streaming quality. Then even if he has specified a higher setting on his end, it will never exceed the value you set on the server.

Indeed. Chrome just doesn't have the built-in hevc or ac3 support, so if you're on Windows, that's what makes Edge very desirable.

You can set with something like nginx to access your server only by domain, and the ip gives just an error. You can set a server block like this server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server; #return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl default_server; listen [::]:443 ssl default_server; ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/nginx-selfsigned.crt; ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/nginx-selfsigned.key; return 444; } then a specific block for emby: ## Emby server { listen [::]:443 ssl http2; ## Listens on port 443 IPv6 with http2 and ssl enabled listen 443 ssl http2; ## Listens on port 443 IPv4 with http2 and ssl enabled proxy_buffering off; ## Sends data as fast as it can not buffering large chunks. server_name yourservername.com

I would never use those options from a playback stance. Who would select edit metadata from a playing item, to me there is no logic for that menu on that screen. But everyone wants something different. This is something I have never seen on a desktop so to me it would be a bug for it to appear on any other device. Yes I can force it to happen though.

Hi there, we currently don't support downloading the actual playlist, but this is planned for future updates of the android, iOS and Windows apps. Thanks for the feedback.

So in other words when I download a playlist to my phone from my server it won't actually save the playlist info just download the songs and I would have to create a new playlist on my phone.

There is an Episode_Groups api endpoint that returns the unique Ids for each group e.g. 5eb7353b0cb3350020ce402e https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/tv/get-tv-episode-groups and those ids can then be used to pull back the "parts" info via https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/tv-episode-groups/get-tv-episode-group-details etc What emby then does with the info.........
