There are a number of shows that I frequently "Shuffle" with... since I've seen all the episodes, don't intend to acquire more (or if I do I don't care about highlighting them beyond the latest added section), and episodes stand alone well enough to not want/need to watch it in order. Just want to watch a random episode during dinner or something. When I start doing this too much, the Next Up gets very cluttered. If shuffle randomly gives me S04 E05 for a show, I'm not terribly concerned about making sure I watch S04 E06 next. I've tried setting the entire series to Played, as I was hoping if all the "next episodes" were already Played it'd keep it off of Next Up, but no such luck. Would it be possible to disable Next Up for individual shows upfront so they stop showing altogether? By User possibly? Or maybe if I Shuffle specifically, it won't show but playing an episode normally does? Sorry if this is a duplicate, I searched a bit but the closest I could find was "forgetting" a series... which didn't really apply since I never want these shows to come back no matter how much I watch of it.

Ce tuto vient en complément du Tuto : Configurer un reverse proxy pour Emby, sous Ubuntu, que vous trouverez ici : Il s'agit ici, de configurer les Headers d'Apache pour éviter une multitude de désagrément, comme des attaques de type XSS, et sécuriser les transport TLS pour éviter les attaques Man-In-The-Middle sur le SSL. Avant d'aller plus loin dans ce tuto, vous pouvez tester la vulnérabilité de votre serveur Emby grâce au site suivant : https://securityheaders.com/ Bien que votre serveur Emby ne sera pas forcément une cible privilégiée pour des pirates, il serait dommage de s'en priver. De plus, la configuration est simple à mettre en place. Pour cela, il vous suffit de suivre les étapes suivantes. Activer les headers sur Apache sudo a2enmod headers Modifier votre fichier de configuration security.conf sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf-available/security.conf Et ajouter /activer les lignes ci-dessous, à fin du fichier, dans la partie des Headers : # Content Security Policy (CSP) # Remplacer https://mon.domaine.com par votre nom de domaine (ex : https://monserveuremby.ddns.net) Header set Content-Security-Policy "script-src 'self' https://mon.domaine.com" # # Setting this header will prevent MSIE from interpreting files as something # else than declared by the content type in the HTTP headers. # Requires mod_headers to be enabled. # Header set X-Content-Type-Options: "nosniff" # # Setting this header will prevent other sites from embedding pages from this # site as frames. This defends against clickjacking attacks. # Requires mod_headers to be enabled. # Header set X-Frame-Options: "sameorigin" # Setting HTTP Strict Transport Security Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload" # Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks Header set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block" #Remove response header Header unset X-Powered-By #Referrer-Policy Header always set Referrer-Policy "no-referrer" Recharger la configuration d'Apache : service apache2 reload Il ne vous reste plus qu'a tester de nouveau la sécurité de votre reverse proxy grâce au site Security Headers Vous devriez obtenir une belle note de A

This is very tricky and we have debated this several times, with fairly extreme views. Unfortunately there is no way to programattically identify Recaps other than user input or generating a database by the users that would identify these.. then the problem lies with that, in people have different encodings and versions where recaps may or may not be available. So our solution for this would be to give the user an option for each show season and episode, where the user can enable an Recap skip option - which would assume that everything before the intro is a Recap. Granted not all shows use this philosophy, so thats why it's important for the user to enable this at an episode level, but if a TV Show/Series always adopts this policy - then to have that facility to enable Recap skip for all episodes, so there aren't hundreds of clicks the user has to go thru if there is a show with 23 seasons and 24 episodes per season. We have this code already in the database and the UI, we just want to ensure that these tests for intro and end credits are solid and relieable before we move to the next stage. There is also a column next to the end credits that allow for individual episodes to be checked in that season

Thanks - yes the design is to always ensure the Intro Start is a little 'late' rather than early and subsequently the Intro End is a little 'early' - then if you have the Auto Skip enabled (when it comes..) then you don't ever miss real content. On recaps - yes, this is tough one as they are impossible to automatically detect. The recap (if it exists) will almost certainly start at 0:00 and if the Intro immediately follows - then it's fairly easy to deduce the 'recap' part. However - a lot of shows have the Intro partially way though the show - so now we have no way of knowing what is a recap and what is 'new' content before the Intro starts. It also of course also depends on the source - Premier TV recordings generally have a recap, but repeats/DVD/Blu-Ray versions will not. During the development, we had an 'include recap' option per show (default to off) and if your show Intro was directly after the recap - then by turning this on, you skipped the recaps too but it caused possible confusion for the initial release - so it was disabled. Once we have completed the main Intro and End credit functions - then this can possibly be added back in - @Cheesegeezer/ @chef ?

The accuracy is really good. Sometimes there is a delay between 0,5 - 1,0 Second after the intro starts. Skipping reacaps could be a nice feature..

@Happy2Play and @Luke ... Thanks a lot for your help. It's working !!! Sorry but after posting I went to sleep ... I have tried your solution this morning and it's working right ... I was looking for "emby" user, but I haven't seen dropdown menu option for "System Internal Users" ... Snoob ... Thanks again !! Best regards from Malaga (Spain)

I will change the code to allow tagging Episodes. It's trivial to do. I will look into doing filters... Vic

I would like to request a sleep timer function for the Emby app. For example, when a song is playing, it should be possible to quickly and easily set a sleep timer to shut off the song after a desired interval. Options could include 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 120 minutes. If it had this, I would be happy to purchase Premiere.

It occurred to me the other day that Emby's Movie and TV libraries treat watched/unwatched indicators in opposite ways. In the TV library, posters display a badge with the number of unwatched episodes on each series poster. No indicator means watched. In the Movie library, posters display a badge with a green checkmark when the movie has been watched. No indicator means unwatched. To summarize: TV: Indicator = UNWATCHED Movie: Indicator = WATCHED It would be great if these libraries could display watched/unwatched status indicators in a consistent manner. Personally I prefer the TV approach, where the indicator corresponds to an unwatched state, as it acts as a flag to draw your attention to something "new". So that would mean no green checkmark on watched movie posters, but instead something like a green star on unwatched movie posters. No change would be needed to the TV library behavior. Thoughts? Am I the only one whose OCD is upset by this?

Hi, Sorry, could not post to subscriptions forum, but important question nonetheless. Are there any plans for Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals for lifetime licence? Thanks

Alle Benutzerkonfigurationen sind benutzerspezifisch und können individuell angepasst werden. Derzeit gibt es keine Benutzervorlage, um alle gleich zu machen. All user configs are user specific and can be adjusted individually. Currently there are no user template to make everyone the same. FR: copy user / user templates Andernfalls könnten Sie einen Benutzer manuell konfigurieren und dessen policy.xml und config.xml in andere Benutzer kopieren und Emby neu starten. Otherwise you could manually configure one user and copy their policy.xml and config.xml into other users and restart Emby.

OK, can you please try again and then attach the emby server log? Thanks.

The issue is previously was wrong so that defect was corrected. So reinstating defects will get just as much pushback. Text base backdrops should always be excluded for the backdrops section.

It actually is.

The plugin is doing what it is suppose to as a backdrop must be textless ie NULL backbrops. Will have to see if the same can be done for TVDB backdrops also. This is a provider defect. Only change that will eventually happen is the addition to text based backdrops to Thump/landscape. No need to bump a topic where the provider is the issue and we are correcting that issue.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback. Apologies for the disruption. We're doing the best we can to play by Samsung's rules.

OK, testing on my Pixel 6, I can reproduce. My initial suspicion turned out to be true. It is a platform rendering defect and we can work around it by disabling the blur background effect that is used in many parts of the app. I'll only disable it just for these two devices, or perhaps the whole chipset if we can detect that. This way it won't be lost on other devices. I'll periodically try to re-enable it and see if it can be used again. Thanks.

Hi, yes it is coming. Thanks.

Emby made a change in how music is identified in, I believe, 4.6.4. It is now driven by tags within the music files. This is great overall but you may need to update your music file tagging to benefit from this. For users of local album art, rather than embedded album art, there is one additional change required. In your Music library settings there is a new value for Music Folder Structure. To use local album art you need to set this value to either of the two options that aren't 'Other or Unstructured' and your files must actually be organized on disk in the structure you set here. For example, my structure is \\share\artist\album\track.flac with a poster.jpg in the Album folder. I chose this option and my album art was picked right up:

I should have searched. I was lazy

Looks like a bug to me. It works for movies for me with group by collection checked. Just not with TV shows

The terms show/series/season all have multiple meanings depending on what part of the planet you are from

The app doesn't stop anything. We'd have to look at the internals of Exo to see if there is anything there.

Yes

That's Sonos all over for you I've been a long time Sonos user and beta tester (Play1, Play5, PlayBar, Beam), but they've always had limitations, especially when it comes to DTS playback !! It's only the new ARC that has Atmos support. Yes, 2.

ARC is not involved, as the Shield is connected directly to the LG SJ9 soundbar and then from that to the TV, so only the video is passed to the TV.

Emby currently allows to show unaired show’s episodes. it would be very useful if alone with the indication “unaired” it’d be possible to display a date when that episode is scheduled for viewing. please consider Thank you

I reckon all episodes should show details at Season level (that would encompass unaired ones also), as per:

@chef hey since there a app called posterr already how about you call yours "emposter" emby + poster. just a idea i had

ok, I also read your PM. Currently I'm very busy, not time yet for investigation and that's not an easy one. I need to setup a libreelec image for the raspi.

Hi, right we currently don't download images for missing episodes, but options are always possible for the future. In the meantime if you add a series thumb image, that should at least help it look better.

Hi, yes it's a good idea. Thanks.

The unplayed filter for all movies works for me using .379

From a browser standpoint this is a known issue as most browsers do not even support this format. (best alternative is Emby Theatre for Windows) https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/102877-question-about-browser-support-for-hevc But the other client/apps would/should be a different issues.

Working great. Thank you so much!

Version 0.20 Version 2 will randomly pick recently added items from the library to display. So if you have two poster apps running they will display different images. However, there is a probable chance that every once in a while the posters will sync up with each other. I think that in order to handle two poster apps running, and always have a different item for each, they would either have to communicate with each other, or communicate to a backend. Not impossible. I had thought about quickly creating a plugin backend that could keep track of what each client is showing. It would also allow any configuration to be persisted, without having to edit the javascript files, or save login credentials in plain text. It might be kind of cool to do. There is also the ability in emby to have the "NowViewingItem" data display on the poster app as well. So as you browse the library, the poster app would update along with the session browsing. Not sure if that would be something to pursue or not?

Yes, the same movies and tv shows, transcoded, are playable on all other clients that I've tried.

Followed your instructions and it now shows my recently added movies...... thanks

Hey Cayars, We focused on xteve and pluto-for-channels. We are currently running some updates in the docker and testing. Once functionality is verified we will open the repo.

The issue of transcoding temporary files occasionally being left behind is resolved in the upcoming emby server 4.7 release. Thanks.

Went through this same BS, figured out the solution for me, Once I found the IPV6 shut off in my Router I just disabled it, restarted my Server and it put my WAN back to IPV4 and all my remotes were happy campers, only thing was most had to to a manual connect due to a new Host IP, So it wouldn't let them back in to their usual Accnt. Which isn't that big of a deal considering not getting in at all. Hope this helps

ok got it sorted, my embysys had full permissions but i deleted it and made new permissions for everyone giving full permission and it worked

We are looking into improving it. Thanks for the feedback.

Bert, nvme just pops in the bottom and gets recognized in storage manager in the slot after you power back up. it makes you initialize it then assign it to whatever volume you're trying to cache against. It's pretty straightforward especially if you only have 1. You can also erase it if it had come out of something else previously which completely resets and zero's it out

I own a quest 2 and did some testing, sadly like @Jbbrack03 said here, there is no good way to enjoy the both: a good meta sorting and managment a smooth playback and control Really hope we can get a better VR option from emby or other developers

I can use any port I like, but I don't want to use the generic ports especially 80 ports as those are the most commonly fished by nefarious actors. I don't mind additional setup steps. I also know that this ticket here will likely serve as reference for others in the future who are trying to do the same type of setup. Thanks.

I personally would never open Emby up outside my home network without forced HTTPS connections. Maybe I am overly cautious but I think it is just good practice. While Plex solution isn't ideal it does just work. No need to purchase a domain name, not need to create SSL certificates, no need to renew the certificates. My suggestion would be for Emby to partner with a SSL cert provider and have and easy way of authenticating the cert from within the Emby dashboard.

I moved from win 7 to win 10. It immediately wrecked my ability to https into my rig via emby. Doing the ssl cert process is at the very limit of my skill set and I needed help to get it going originally... I have just been using plex in the meantime.
