Now that Emby (beta) gets the Dolby Vision Full profile information - can we get the Apps to show the ExtendedVideoSubtype if it exists rather than just say 'Dolby Vision' - which continues to cause confusion and frequent posts why media items do not play correctly - especially for DV Profile 5. I've put the full list of DV possible configuration items below and what I would suggest the App displays instead of just 'Dolby Vision' @softworkz I know you are thinking along these lines as well - anything you wish to add ? Thanks ---- { "Items": [ { "MediaSources": [ { "MediaStreams": [ HDR10 "ExtendedVideoType": "Hdr10", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "Hdr10", App display = HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 4.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile42", App display = DolbyVision+SDR Dolby Vision Profile 5.0 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile50", App display = DolbyVision Only Dolby Vision Profile 7.6 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile76", App display = DolbyVision+HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 8.1 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile81", App display = DolbyVision+HDR10 Dolby Vison Profile 8.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile82", App display = DolbyVision+SDR Dolby Vison Profile 8.4 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile84", App display = DolbyVision+HLG Dolby Vison Profile 9.2 "ExtendedVideoType": "DolbyVision", "ExtendedVideoSubtype": "DoviProfile84", App display = DolbyVision+SDR

Just stay away from Seagate HDD's - in many many years of 24x7 HDD usage in a NAS, 95% of my failures have been from Seagate drives ...

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

Hello, It will be great to have the possibility to exclude a library from the global search. For example the Adult content one. Or at least to be able to exclude a tag from the global search and by this I can tag the entire Adult library as Adult and Adult tag to be globally excluded on search. Imagine what happens when you want to search for "Coffee with Ana" movie and you start typing in the search field "Ana" with little kids near you Thanks!

It's been released and fixes the problem.

You can use wireshark to get the stream links, youtube has videos on how to do this. Stirr for channels now has custom channel support, I have been playing with this last week for a bit https://github.com/robbiet480/stirr-for-channels It's kind of fun to play with this stuff.

Luke Hi!, with the new version the problem has been resolved. Thank you very much for your help!

edit: We have Roku Ultra 2020, they support 4k, so should direct play h.265 too, I'll try it and see. Thanks for that link I haven't gotten to the automation part yet, but will definitely need it for 100+ episodes.

I would spend time considering h265, if you haven't already. It's a very good option, *if* all your devices support it. Takes longer to encode, but generally offers a better file size to quality ratio. For AAC vs AC3, if you're re-encoding surround content, you should go with AC3 or possibly EAC3 (dd+). In my experience, client *multi-channel* AAC support is very hit and miss, in which case, Emby's going to end up transcoding your AAC to AC3 on the fly anyway. Also worth mentioning, if your source material is already AC3, make sure you use the passthru option in Handbrake, rather than re-encoding AC3 to AC3.

Same issue on a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite with Android 13, Emby 3.1.29

Hi. We are trying to design towards more modern playback interfaces than Kodi and cable boxes - which use jumping and visual seeking with thumbnails to allow you to navigate right to where you wish.

Reinstalled beta 43 after seeing the suggestion in other threads, fixed the issue.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but it doesn't really matter anymore, my VM broke and when trying to restore from backups, apparently proxmox is not liking them, so it seems I will have to blow that VM and rebuild from scratch... I usually just download the Emby Server for Windows and run it.

I didn't check all the individual entries you've shown, but the ability to provide string representations (similar to yours) exists since the beginning. It's just the client which doesn't show it.

Can you optimize the performance of this feature? I think if I were to operate these download items one by one, even if I didn't sleep, it might still take up to a month to complete. There should be thousands of projects in the queue. I have attempted to remove the device directly from the device. But the download entry still exists. I can only uninstall EMBY's app first and wait for your multi select operation function to update. Can multiple selection operations logically enter the backend queue? The front-end first removes these items and interacts with the downloaded device, notifying the client to stop all downloads 可以对这个功能的性能优化一下吗？ 我觉得，上面显示的这些下载条目如果我一个一个来操作的话，就算我不眠不休，可能仍然需要长达一个月的时间才能处理完。应该是有上千条的项目在队列中。 我已经尝试了直接在设备中移除设备。但下载条目仍然存在。 我只能先卸载EMBY 的 APP，并等待你的多选操作功能更新出来。 多选操作的时候是不是可以在逻辑上进入后台队列，前端首先去掉这些项目，并且与下载的设备交互，通知客户端停止所有的下载

The best storage drives I have found are the Toshiba. I have two 16TB helium filled drives and not only are they fast they run cool compared to every other drive I have, plus they come with a 5 year warranty so do not buy from any place not offering that warranty. In the last 25 years almost all the drives I have had that died were either Seagate or Western Digital with Seagate being the worst. I will not buy anything from either company any more. All my current drives are Hitachi or Toshiba and some of the Hitachis are 12 years old and I have never lost one of either. Granted not all these drives are 24/7 but all those in my one emb emby server are 7-8 years old of 24/7 and those are Hitachis and Toshibas and none of those have died yet....but they are backed up at their age just in case.

Ok, I'm really sorry to spam but one quick update to the whole Build situation. I figured a way to solve it. Apparently it's not a QNAP thing but rather a BuildKit (the engine that actually builds images in Docker) issue with ZFS. BuildKit is the standard engine used in the new version and the previous engine is deprecated, but you can still use it if you add DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 to your command, so something like this DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 docker compose build --no-cache I would still use the first method though because that won't break any time soon and using this is basically a race on whether this method stops working or they fix the current engine. But if someone doesn't really want to change their docker compose, well now you know what to do.

Sounds great !!! Thanks so much. Also I no all about having to submit an update to the app store and then wait for approval every time, usually 30hrs or less. I designed and created my first 2d platform game in honor of my grandparents, which was based on my experiences growing up hunting on the creek banks and put it up on the app store so I have good practice as to their rules and regulations. Thanks again Luke

It's been submitted to Apple. Just going through the review process.

It's coming. Hopefully this fall we'll have something ready.

Right these can be easily handled. We can account for these characters.

Thank you!

This is primarily a bug fix release. Here are the changes: Web app compatibility updates for iOS 17 Compatibility updates for FreeBSD, TrueNAS and Arch Linux Improve playback of transcoded video in the Emby web app View the full article

El error se solucionó gracias a esto

Just wish there was something like css for Android, so we could add our own little embellishments...

It was coming last year. It's still coming... (It is known to be working, but just hasn't made it to the beta server yet). Paul

HI, we don't have an answer to this yet but we are certainly monitoring the industry to see how things shake out in regards to this.

A quick look at the log shows 456 is unauthorized response. I have seen this in the past when a provider (or other server) restricts access to its content except for certain apps/browsers. Normally I fix that by adding the user agent specified in a client that is able to access the content to the header my app sends and it tends to solve the problem. However how, or even if, that applies to Emby you will need a Emby person to tell you. Good luck.

Hi. Have you tried reducing the quality setting in the app? Is this a remote connection to the server?

You might find it far easier to switch to a different provider who can supply up to 5 connections on the same account. Carlo PS send me a PM if you need more info on this.

Yes dlna will be much easier to get working with the container in host networking mode.

The work never stops. We are constantly working on new and exciting things. I would also just be a little more patient this time of year as it's summer vacation season. Thanks.

We used to try and do this but it resulted in too many web socket requests hitting Emby Server. That becomes a resource drain on both sides. That's why it's better to just lift the server-enforced timeout.

We’re aware of the image processing issue on m2 and are looking into it. Thanks.
