The last piece of the puzzle for playlist sharing is finally coming:

New PUBLIC TESTING version available 9.1.1: Delta changelog 9.1.0 -> 9.1.1 clean code fix crash on Kodi exit fix remote playback issues

Okay, I apologize for that. In that scenario, the device should only count once. The database table has a unique index on device and key.

Emby server can run under number of Linux distros. https://emby.media/linux-server.html Andriod client is one of the flagship clients. There generally shouldn't be any, but it is highly dependent on one's particular setup, most notably filefolder structure/naming/organization. Quite the contrary: Emby it's quite different to Plex as there is no central auth server and all users are yours alone, not theirs; there is no routing, all connections are server-client direct; you can utilise Emby Connect, though, in which case remote clients don't have to know server address, but the direct route from client to server must be possible, i.e. your server must be set for remote access.

"A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game Is forever bad” Shigeru Miyamoto It will be ready, when it's ready. Or would the community prefer a buggy POS that deletes all your files or makes your system explode, or worse? I can't believe the amount of people whining about it taking so long.

You probably would have got a quicker answer if you had posted this under 'Linux' as you have exceeded your Inotify limit System.IO.IOException: System.IO.IOException: The configured user limit (128) on the number of inotify instances has been reached, or the per-process limit on the number of open file descriptors has been reached.

Unless I'm being a bit blind (highly possible!), I'd love a way to hide a couple of the top green navigation items without hacking it in myself. For example, in Movies I don't want the 'Trailers' item to appear for any profile and for TV I don't need the 'Upcoming' nav link. Obviously not a major issue but thought it would be a nice thing to have, perhaps allowing them to be re-ordered like the home page items but again just a nice extra,

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

I feel the following filter & sort options are lacking the following: * filter by HDR * sort by video bitrate * sort by audio bitrate * sort by filesize * filter by subtitle language * filter by audio channels * filter by audio language Anybody have anything they would like to add to this list?

I know we can filter our favorites but I'd like to request a feature to group our favorites into different, custom collections (i.e.: Documentaries, Wrestling - WWE, Wrestling - AEW, Kiddo's Movies, etc.). It would make the experience of finding something to watch a lot more convenient!

The advanced tab of library settings.

Sorry, but I don't believe that ever could have been the case. I had a TRS-80 but both of those systems were long after "software" and its accompanying license agreements were created.

I reported the 503 error to them but didn’t get a response so idk if my provider actually the real iptv provider maybe reseller it’s okay maybe they will fix it later lol.

HI, we have some new ideas that will be coming to help make it easier to get connected to your server, so stay tuned for that.

Yes it does. I deleted Emby from the Shield and did a clean install. Everything seems to be working correctly now.

Hey guys, thank you again for your ideas. Because radarr then defines the change date, it makes perfect sense what you're saying. I'm also sure it works. But not in my particular scenario. Exactly. For example: Casablanca (1943) [WEBDL-1080p].mkv Casablanca (1943) [Bluray-1080p].mkv Here the "added date" would also apply and the movie would then appear at the top of the list as newly added. If I sorted the movie list by "release date", the date would be the same - so old movies would be replaced in the same place and not moved up in the list. Maybe this could also be easily solved in radarr with a custom script. I have to find out.

At least an early somewhat buggy release would be interesting as opposed to the boring status we usually get with this properly operating system. Proper functionality is just so "non-interesting." "May you live in interesting times."

the problem was with the permissions of the files that I copied for viewing, they were transferred and differed from those that were on the folder thanks for the help!

It never has been... Since the dawn of software (which is what digital media is classified as) you have never actually owned any of it (unless you wrote it). Every purchase you ever made was for a limited license of use of said software.

I'd like to see Emby allow decimals numbers in the episode number. This would make it easy to insert promos, commercials, etc. in-between episode 1 and 2 for example. Emby manual power!

The most flexible way I've found is to just use Tag's. Been there done that with a seperate 4K library, but it just adds a layer of unnecessary complexity. If you run something like the MediaInfo plugin - then it has the option to automatically Tag all the codecs - and thus you can simply 'deny' them access to anything 'UHD' in the example below. Other examples are if you know they don't have a Dolby Vision capable TV, then deny them 'DV5' (as it won't transcode properly).

Hi all, I spent some time with fighting against .NET and Windows (I am a Java guy :) and created a prototype of Emby plugin for EPUB books. It provides really just a basic functionality - the advantage of EPUB is that it typically contains all the metadata (title, author, cover, description, year, etc.) so no need to connect remotely anywhere (yes, this part could be possibly improved, but very likely not by me :). So, what it does exactly: it updates Emby metadata on library item addition it does the same also when one likes/unlikes the given book (to be able to manually trigger metadata refresh; this could be possibly removed, I have used this a lot during my testing) instead of collections, it adds tags to the books (see the last image); this is to avoid mixing movie collections with the book ones, I did not like that, it seems to me that collections are more movie friendly... this also requires proper naming of the EPUB files - personally, I am using form of "<series><index>.<title>.epub" - this way, all the files are always properly sorted, even in my ordinary file manager (I use file name sorting also in my e-book reader, too). So, the same sorting is applied also in Emby. (That is all, so no reading or so; I have an e-book reader so I use it, of course.) However, there are some possibly problematic parts, like - I am using an EPUB library, which is free to use, but I was not able to "bundle" it correctly into my plugin (so I simply copied its sources into my project - ugly, but works, but I may be violating its license, I don't know; any hints how to do it properly are welcome, thanks). Also, the code is very ugly (using VS and Windows is more a fight for me, as I wrote :) so it is not published anywhere. BTW, it should not be difficult to add support for e.g. MOBI books there (I guess they are similar to EPUBs, no? I mean, they could contain all the book metadata too, no?), although it would mean some more code cleanup and refactoring, but nothing complicated I believe. Would anyone be interested in this plugin? If so, I could try to prepare a public GitHub repo, but it would take me some time to prepare it (the reasons are explained above). This is how it looks like on my Emby instance:

I am immensely grateful! You've resolved an issue that has been troubling me for several months!

I'll find out, I'm not sure.

Seems to be able to connect now. I think it was just having issues registering with Emby connect. I didn't change anything on my end.

Anyway "play to" works fairly bad also using official emby app (cover sometime flashes every second, sometime progress bar goes away after few seconds, no chapters available. Only problem that is specific to play on embyforkodi is the fail or resume. Yes, kodi is really faster than emby app, but Emby app also has recording schedule management. Someone could develop a pvr addon for emby to control also recordings, but in the end it is simpler to enhance Emby app I think Anyway till now 9.x version of embyforkodi does work very well. No hangs on stop.

Really would love this feature, so i can create a list of unseen movies. Strange this isnt added yet, and the request is open for soi long time now. Hopefully soon....

Threadfin 1.0.23 is working well with the 4.8.0.61 beta. I am having some timeouts on some of the streams, some of them take a bit longer to load. If I start the stream with VLC first it muticasts and then emby can play it. I am running nginx to proxy with caching and it really helps with the image loads. I'm considering adding in the Module ngx_stream_proxy_module. It has the proxy_socket_keepalive that might help and reconnect a dropped stream, maybe, not sure.

Plex got a lot of media coverage recently for having this feature, because users absolutely hated it and it caused a massive backlash.

It's a big CSS file with lots of properties ... Go to line 563 - .skinHeader.focuscontainer-x.headroom.videoOsdHeader.semiTransparent:not(.videoOsdHeader-remotecontrol) I've managed to destroy my default css by modifying top: unset !important; bottom: 90px; Getting rid of those lines should do the trick. For testing purpose, press F12 in your browser. Here you can live preview your edits. Also look for 'Sources' and 'Overrides' so you can edit your css in a local editor with live preview after saving.

Thank you, I will definetly install 3.3.49 in the first moment. And I will give a feedback on whether the playback problem was solved in this post. Cheers

Hi, can you please try Emby for Apple TV 1.8.0 and let us know how that compares? Thanks.

Yes, the first part was just hypothetical, won't happen unfortunately. The use of fiber for cable TV distribution is nothing new. This has been done since more than 20 years ago here and allowed offerings of internet connectivity via tv cable. Lately, there are offerings here as well (often called "Triple-Play", phone+internet+tv). The TV is in this case IPTV, but "real" IPTV in the sense that you get the original broadcast signals (same bandwidths) delivered via IP. In many cases you also still get TV from the coax, but not that many channels. But this is not an official successor to CableCard, just a different offering, right? I'm sure @arrbee99won't mind as long as it's about TV

Well, now I'm going to ask you for help on every Emby issue I have so you can trial and error a solution

All, I've just pushed up beta version 2.2.2.2 to the catalog for compatibility with Emby 4.8.0.61. Let me know if there are any issues. @navy12

This has to be the worst idea I've ever seen!! There is a place for this and that's the admin dashboard.. For heavens sake please forget this or put to the bottom of the pile, never to be seen again! Stupid.. Stupid.. people..

Hi, yes I think this could be handled by the smart views feature that we want to do.

Thanks Abo! I guess there's no way to activate this for new users only? But on the other side I think that those who really want to increase their track-record of posts will also have the time to wait for 1 or 3 minutes, so for them (if possible at all) it would have to be a much larger timeout, to make this effective.

To be more specific about why, it's that it only makes sense with a small number of libraries. So then your next question will be can it be an option - the problem is that this is not your typical simple option to hide or show something or turn on or off. This is a paradigm shift that would require more changes to the interface and probably the entire app in order to really make it work well. Therefore it's just not realistic. We need a design that is more flexible that can accommodate everything that is supported.

Since this now includes more comedy than real information. (Not a bad thing from time to time, I think) I now feel a bit free to include a joke. Many years ago I was visiting Chicago and a local Priest told me he heard about a man the had been a "Boiler stoker" his entire life and absolutely loved his job, the heat and the hard work and all else about the job was a high level perk for him. One day he died and since he was not a good man at all he was sent to hell. He was "assigned" to stoke the fires of Hell and he actually enjoyed it. One day Satan noticed that guy just whistling and generally enjoying himself through all the hellfire. Satan said that he could NOT allow that in Hell so he ordered the fires of Hell extinguished. A few days later Satan was again strolling through Hell when he noticed the ex-stoker just standing around and slivering and generally looking miserable. So Satan says, "Well, how do you like it now!" The man replied through chattering teeth, "Well I don't like it much: but, does this mean the Cubs finally won the World Series?" If any mod feels this goes too far then delete it but I felt this thread should continue into at least mildly comedic territory. Someday, given all the popular acclaim, I will post my favorite all time blond joke that was first told to me by a little thirteen year old blond girl that played for me on a soccer team.

Threadfin 1.0.19 and emby 4.8.0.55 are working. There are still issues with the playlist streams. It is hit or miss with many of the channels from the free playlists and iptv provider with the direct streams.

When browsing through my library the item limit seems to be capped to 100. Pagination requires me to use the arrows to go to the next page. Is there a way to turn this off, and instead showing a flowing list of items instead without having to switch pages? If not, is it possible to implement an option where you can control the number of items per page, with ideally an option to show everything without pagination?
