20220517_205852.mp4 Horizon： 20220517_220435.mp4 emby轮播海报实现思路，给有缘人，如果你看到并且对你有帮助，不客气。 搭建另一个轮播的网页，引用这个网站的frame框架到emby内部，就行了。 你甚至可以把爱奇艺首页搬进emby，但是那样是无法实现点击标题跳转到emby的媒体页面的，必须给每个URL一个media item ID，然后才能跳转到对应ID的媒体页面。 所以这个首页轮播的网页只能你自己搭建，设置自己的item ID。 并且，因为同一部片子，在不同的emby服务器上的ID 也不同， 也就是说这个网站搭建了以后，只能给你自己用，给别人引用，也是实现不了点击跳转的，因为Url跳转的itemID跟他数据库的ID对不上。

Lets mark this as in-progress dunno why my privileges have been removed to do this. @CBers @Abobadercan you mark this as in-progress please

I've renamed it, hope that's OK?

Whatever you were doing @chef , it has been working PERFECTLY for the last 3 months - zero issues, zero crashes, every single relevant Intro/credit found with microsecond accuracy .. I still smile every time I see the 'Intro and/or Credit Skipped' message .. You were doing something right .. be proud.

I don't have an ETA but we are working on an automatic switch to the native player with server transcoding when you press the Pip button. That will allow us to accomplish it seamlessly.

Thanks! That solved it! I should have known to put the date on both. The TVDBID worked perfectly and allowed me to manually identify them both. Marked your answer as solution and gave you a rep. I am going to chock this up to the switching to team Emby learning curve lol. Now I know what to do in the future. Thank you!

Still showing 1.79 but if it’s completely updated I’ll change version to 2.0 so it’s known to be compatible with emby core

Barring an unforeseen problem, we'll release tomorrow.

Sometimes when searching for a movie to watch I will set numerous filter criteria (Unplayed - Action - 2014 - PG13) for example. After Ive found what Im looking for its sort of cumbersome to have to go back in and unselect all the above individually. Any chance we can get a "clear all" button of some sort to get you back to viewing your entire library unfiltered? Plex does this and its very convenient. Thanks!

Hi. Recently, I've been able to play around with the Emby Android TV app for Fire TV and I noticed a few extra features that would be really nice to see on the LG app: Enable Refresh Rate Switching. Does LG even allow this on built-in apps? Image Size options for covers. I love being able to see big movie posters! Dedicated button on remote to quickly and easily show the Stats for Nerds overlay during playback. Super helpful! Can this be mapped to one of the otherwise unused buttons on the LG remote? Now that update approvals are happening more frequently, any chance we could see these cool features added to the LG app? Thanks!

I sometimes enter my movie library with the desire to watch a movie but no real idea about what movie I would like to watch. Currently I can browse from a-z or z-a or by date added or by genre or by date released or maybe a few other choices but that means I am limited to seeing my movies in just a few orders and I see the same movies first in each sort every time. While that may seem like a good variety it really limits browsing and also means that some movies are always late in the browse. I have a library of well over 3000 movies and it sometimes takes a long time to find a movie to watch. What I would like to have is the option to present the movies in a random order that is different each time I browse. That way movies that I usually do not get to browse might show up earlier. I do NOT want random play I just want to be able to choose to browse my movies in a random order. I would really like this on the Roku client but I believe if it were implemented at the server then it would be easier for the clients to implement it.

Emby Server 4.7 is Released with Many New Features, Improvements and Fixes Emby Server 4.7 is starting to rollout to different platforms. It's packed with new features, improvements and fixes. We wanted to give you a Preview of some new functionality and changes to Live TV as well as bring to your attention possible post installation configuration changes that might be required. If you currently use one of the following Live TV Plugins (NextPVR, MediaPortal, ServerWMC, TVHeadEnd, TVMosaic, Vu+, DVBLink or DVBViewer) you will need to reconfigure the plugin after it is updated following the 4.7 installation (the server checks for new plugins after a new install). As part of this process the guide will refresh. Please let it completely finish before going to the next step. Once the guide refresh is complete please go to Live TV menu and add a new tuner. You will see an entry for the plugin you are using. See Below: Live TV has many new features as well as a new plugin framework. Our own internal tuners and guide have been moved into plugins using this new framework as well. Setting up a tuner for use in Emby thanks to the new framework allows for a unified architecture, simplifying tuner/source setup. Here's an example of the Add TV Source dialog showing a few of the different choices using the new plugins. Whenever you install a new Live TV Plugin an entry will appear on this dialog. All available tuner types are now managed from one central place simplifying setup and configuration. All tuner types now share a common set of features. This allows 3rd party plugins to work exactly the same as Emby provided sources. This is now possible thanks to a new TV framework Emby uses debuting in this release. This new framework allows for simpler TV plugin creation as the server takes over responsibility of many functions previously needed at the plugin level. This helps to prevent issues related to specific plugin code as Emby server can now handle streams in a very consistent manner regardless of source. This is a WIN/WIN for developers as well as users! Emby Server 4.7 along with it's new TV plugin Framework includes new features and expanded functionality. Some of the highlights are: Support for OTA ATSC 3.0 & 4K Live TV If you have an ATSC 3.0 compatible tuner and live in a TV market currently broadcasting ATSC 3.0, Emby has everything you need to embrace this new technology. This includes new support for the proprietary AC-4 coded needed to decode audio streams. Not only will you get a beautiful picture especially on 4K HDR channels, but awesome sound as well! Cable Support for 4K Channels Emby supports receiving 4K digital cable channels. All you need is a compatible tuner like the ever popular HDHomeRun Prime. Of course your provider needs to support 4K channel transmission and have this turned on for you account. Check your providers website for 4K support as many providers have this available, often at no additional cost. 4K Channel support is not limited to built in OTA and Cable tuners but is fully supported through all tuner types if the source itself support 4K. Here's a great screenshot of a 4K SDR broadcast captured from an HDHomeRun Prime tuner: Universal Closed Caption Support In All Emby Clients Every Emby Client including web browsers fully support Closed Captions, not to be confused with subtitles. The Emby Transcoder is fully Closed Caption aware, so it doesn't matter how or where you play Live TV in Emby, it's now available if you require it. Manual Recordings Support Another new addition to Emby is support for manual recordings regardless if you have guide information or not. You can setup these recordings to use specific channels, set the starting start and end times, you can set the frequency of recordings (one and done or Recurring) as well as specific days of the week. Of course you can personalize the title of the recording(s) as well. You can setup a manual recording easily by clicking the the Create Recording button followed by choosing the Channel and Time option on the popup window. You can then setup the manual recording criteria that will be used. Here you see the custom recording already scheduled to record. Multiple Channel Support for Series Recordings You can now setup a single recording that can be used across specific multiple channels you choose. Emby also has adds new options to allow: Support Negative Recording Padding Values Enter a negative Number in the Start or End Options Max Recording Length for Series Recordings You can now set as a precaution a maximum duration that any recording can have. This shouldn't be needed but is there if you need it should you have a "fringe" reception channel that sometimes causes you grief with recordings. All New Views in Live TV Recordings Tab Emby now supports viewing your recordings just like other Movies or TV Shows libraries. Explore this option on your own and you should feel right at home with it. Server Dashboard Changes The server dashboard has been reorganized a little to make it easy to quickly find information. It also adds additional information. Here you can quickly see 2 Active Recordings taking place on the Server. Now Playing Dashboard The Now Playing section on the Dashboard sports a lot of new information but is easier to view as well. In the above picture you can quickly see Apollo 13 is Direct Playing the content as well as see additional information about the streams. My Cousin Vinny on the other hand is Transcoding the Video while leaving the Audio untouched, but is sending this to the client using HLS. The little graphics in the Video section following HEVC tell you it's using Hardware Transcoding. You can see the transcoder is Throttling (waiting) as it's producing 53fps which is more than what's needed at the time. The new Now playing also sports new features such as being able to click on the video name (ie Apollo 13) and be taking directly to it's detail page. Same with clicking on the username or device type. It's very cool! Improved Tab Design Used at the Top of Pages Emby now uses an improved design for tabs whenever show on a page. It's much easier to quickly see there are multiple tabs on the page with options and features. It's also much easier to see which tab your currently using. The new tab interface look follows your choice of theme information as well. New Theme Options Emby Server 4.7 gives you more control than ever over the look of your pages by allowing you more control over the theme options. You now have separate theme and accent color options. Want a strong all blue theme? How about and easy to see dark theme with Pick Highlights? You can also use a bit of imagination mixing different Theme, Setting Theme and Accent colors to achieve interesting results not possible previously. Embedded Lyrics Support for Music Files Emby now supports display of musical lyrics you provide. This doesn't require modifying your actual music tracks but is done using a text file residing next to the track! You can quickly and easily use a tool such as MediaHumon Lyrics Finder that makes quick work of adding Lyrics to your existing content. Rescan your music library and have this: This is a great new feature that's easy to implement, uses hardly any storage space (text files) and gives you great results! (first icon bottom left) Audio now playing screen The above picture shows one view of our new audio Now Playing Screens. Here's another version of the same screen without the lyrics showing your current queue: This view uses the middle button at the bottom between Lyrics and the cog/settings icon. Clicking the last icon (cog/settings) brings up a mini menu allowing you to change playback speed, Stats for Nerds or the ability to save your current queue as a playlist. Without any of the options selected you can have a simpler viewer centered on the page like this: You can get to these screens clicking the far right icon on the audio playback toolbar at the bottom of the screen. This new audio toolbar put everything you need right at your fingertips. See the artist, album and song. Change volume, set repeat mode, pause, stop, change tracks or switch views as shown above. The toolbar stays at the bottom of the screen for music while allowing you to explore other parts of the system. Very Nice! Audio Book Continue Listening Emby supports continue listening to Audio Books. The above screen shot shows the docked toolbar at the bottom of the screen while the top portion show a new option being set to display on the home screen to be able to quickly access and continue listening to audio files. New On Screen Display (OSD) Features Some of the new 4.7 OSD features have been shown recently in a couple Emby client blog posts using a preview release of 4.7. Some of the functionality of visual timelines and thumbnail graphics have been available in some form the past but now are fully unified in a cohesive manner that's very easy to use from a keyboard, mouse or remote. It's very slick, adds new navigational functionality as well as additional information you had to quick playing in the past to access. You can see how much thought and care went into this design allowing it to work effortlessly across the different cleints. Visual Timeline Showing Overlayed Chapter Information Done Through Keyboard Navigation Info - Bottom-Left Menu Option This will bring up information about the movies, show episode or TV channel you happen to be watching. Chapters Menu This shows the next menu option displaying a list of embedded chapters including the Chapter name, the timeline it starts as well as of thumbnail from the start of the scene. Cast & Crews How often have you watched something and wanted to know the actor or actresses name playing a part? Previously you had to exit playback to look this information up but now it's right here always available a click or two away. What a non-intrusive time saver this option is! On Now You can quickly and easily see what's on TV using the two new views added to the OSD. The On Now view above uses the programs graphics if available (Emby Guide supports this) to show what's currently on each channel in your lineup. You can easily scroll the list sideways to get a good look at everything currently being broadcast. The Guide showed below allows you to quickly see what's on a currently as well as what's coming on later. It's not limited to what's shown but allows scrolling up and down channels as well as the timeline so you can see what's coming on 12 hours from now. It's a fully functional Mini-Guide built right into the OSD. All of the OSD functions shown above work right over top the currently playing media allowing you access to a lot of new information with the least amount of disruption possible. Previously you probably got gripes and complaints from family members if you exited the media playback to get a look at the cast list to see the name of the actor. Now instead of having to wait to the end of the movie to see the cast list or catching wrath from the family, you can quickly view this information in a non-disruptive manner. Having all this new information as well as new tools for easier navigation right at your fingertips during playback shows how much thought and design went into this new version. Emby sets the bar high for OSD functionality that others can't compare to. More To Come! We're excited to share how awesome Emby Server 4.7 release is. We plan to following up this blog post with additional posts in the coming days expanding on it's new features. A special thank you goes out to all the people that helped test the many beta versions along the way! Inevitably with a monster release of this size there will likely be some issues we'll address with quick to follow maintenance releases. Please make sure to let us know in the community forum what you think of our new 4.7 release and any issues or questions you might have. Post Questions, Comments and Issues Here.

Me too. I pay for Emby Premiere but background playback and PiP is vital.

Spent a little more time this evening on this. got all the info and I’m starting to play with it. CLI programs are soooo fussy on the syntax wasted about 2 hrs debugging and fining out that i had something unnecessary in the command lol grrrrrr. Need to do some conditional string formatting, and then i will test with my only tester!! should be done pretty quickly i think.

Hi, The problem was with my Amazon account. I had to change the billing zone for the applications in the settings. Too much confusion, much simpler on Google. Sorry for bothering you

Correct.

Hi there, yes we will continue to work on improving it. Thanks for the feedback.

Cheers corn beef

nope not yet. i think @Admin should start their own thread for Core Implementation testing. This thread should be left for the plugin.

First thought would TMM (tinyMediaManager).

Danke @Segler Genauso sehe ich es auch. Was nützt mir der Porsche, wenn nur drei Reifen montiert sind? Du hast es jedenfalls auf den Punkt gebracht.

Hello @ebr I'm not a fan of lurid headlines and surely everyone has their very own wish for the next feature, but can you please put the basic stability and functionality in the foreground or still with in the next update? No idea if with the point: direct playback instead of stream still does not work of @Teddyknuddel the point is meant that you can not play AVI files: This is certainly not only from my point of view a cornerstone of the app. Thanks for your effort and congratulations for the recent release 4.7.0.60. best regards seger

That is a 3rd party plug-in in the catalog.

Solved! Tested Shield-Server---->Shield-Client(s) and all worked great with HD and 4K media on my local network! I also tested remote again using my browser and HD playback is smooth. And, the Shield is working excellent as a NAS for serving local playback of ISO with the Zidoo Z9X. The guides Emby staff provided are great! Thank you very much for the help and guidance!

It could be a problem in the internal codec implementation but not sure at this point.

That's not a spotlight. That is showing details for the currently selected item and, as mentioned, the Android TV, Fire TV and Roku apps have this same layout (basically) because I also copied it from Netflix .

Absolutely cool! And emby on Nvidia Shield has this functionality I don't know why they dont enable this for all apps. I have posted here a screenshot of it:

I removed it because we use this to track things being worked on in the core. This plug-in is fine as a stop-gap but is not the end result we'll be looking for. Thanks.

I cant see any reason why not. I’m using MediaInfoCLI commands and got some initial good info from a debian/ubuntu developer(sorry i dunno the difference)

With the current version of the plugin that is true, however we can update the plugin such that the core can use the timings from the plugin. It’s just a matter of changing how the data is stored so that it matches the core.

Rename series folders to: Doctor Who (1963) [tvdbid=76107] and Doctor Who (2005) [tvdbid=78804] Rescan.

Well, it seems I had to explicitly use https in the app, which now that I think about it, makes sense, the browser is redirected to https whereas the app cannot.

For testing change the plugin ID. Test it. But, maybe be cautious of creating a public release until you know for sure the markerTypes are working, and compatible. Otherwise the core devs would have to disable the new id. Cool news is that if you are successful with the plugin data and the chapter markerTypes, you indirectly cause the button to show. Success! Sorry I can't be of more help. But, markerTypes == client button Which if anyone reads that... is gonna be the same for the core data. The data is pretty much the same... So exciting... Yeah... but... not really.

Done

Hey Guys. the GitHub is updated with the most recent plugin code. I didn't change anything. It's all the same since we left it a couple months ago. Cheese! Rich! You have to add the proper markers for chapters. That's all that has to be fixed. I'm screwed for time. I'm working the COVID units every night, and I'm just exhausted. It is mentally exhausting, and physically draining me. I wish I had more time, but it is just a really bad time right now to do anything I actually want to do... which is program computers. I'm very sorry.

Hm, I never experiences such issues. I think that's not a fair comparison. Windows is the only OS in the world where you are able to run binaries (or access libraries/DLLs) that have been compiled 20 years ago. It's a lot of work to cut down all that stuff, that's really annoying. What I find really upsetting is that they want to start requiring you to have an MS account to install the OS (not only on Home but also Pro).

Emby shows 23.976/24p correctly on my OLED LG TV and other LCD LG TVs (2016 models through to 2021) and switches back to PAL 50hz as well. So the player software or TV itself does switch to match frame rate as I would notice instantly, Emby may not need to do it because of that...

It is just the website. No server or web client code is public.

Yeppp infact with Mp3Tag i change it and all is changed Hispa

@adamstewiegreen Do you actually have multiple versions in your setup? But don't believe I have ever seen this. Do they both go to the same place? You can see path via right click edit metadata on each.

Hopefully not too much longer. Thanks.

Would happily pay for this feature in Premiere. (I already pay, but let’s assume I’d pay more!) It’s the one and only one major drawback to relying on Emby alone. EDIT: Would love background audio playback as well as an option, so i can listen to videos at night or when quickly switching between apps and don’t want the sound to pause.

I noticed a difference in loading also. Slower than before. I think it is due to subtitles. I think it is now first extracting the subtitles from the file before it starts playing. Before it started playing directly and after xx seconds the subtitles appeared, now the subtitles are there right from the start.

Love how they look

I really fancy this.

Please, Please, Please...

Hi A new version of the plugin has been released. By making changes in the Subscene site and making compatibility in the plugin, it was possible to reuse the site subtitles. Download: https://github.com/nRafinia/Emby.Subtitle.Subscene/releases/latest

Rights are a little different on DSM 7. Did you give rights to the Internal Emby user? From Control Panel go to Shared Folder and edit each share that is used by Emby Server. Click the share, then EDIT, go to permission tab, select System internal user from drop down, grant emby user read/write access. Let us know if this solves your problem.

people have got used to docking their video player while carrying on using other apps. It was a big plus when it was added to iOS, I’m not surprised at all

Interesting how people think differently. I would have never conceived of PIP being a deal breaker requirement.
