I don't think so, but, from what your previous reply said, you edited the config manually: GPU UUID in /mnt/.ix-apps/app_configs/emby/versions/1.2.17/user_config.yaml I would suggest not doing that. The error shows something wrong with the config. Quickest fix is probably: Take a backup of emby and reinstall the container without manually editing the config.

@sk222 I was able to workaround this issue by updating to the latest ffmpeg and putting xteve in between. BR

Would be nice to have the ability to shift the Live TV Guide forward and back a set number of hours for those who have guide providers that do not sync up with the current time.

I don't have an ETA but likely in the near future.

@thekingpinwe're in business! The user_config.yaml file looks to have been fine, but the backup, delete app/container, reinstall and restore did the trick! I think I installed the Emby TrueNAS Scale app before I had checked the 'support Nvidia GPUs' checkbox, so the app was installed without that support, but now the GPU is showing up in Emby as expected. Thanks for the help!

Just looking at the new app as i'm planning on reinstalling a windows device. Emby Theater is snappy and works fine and fast, surprised this is the only in here about this. Please give us an option to disable the splash fully, having to wait an additional 10 seconds every time opening the app now is rather off putting. Even if you you "skip" it with manual interaction the app just sits there. Please rework the start up time. Is there still a download link for Emby Theater available? Searching for it brought me to this thread.

Sorry, I was just trying to clarify whether or not you meant over time NFO files would be automatically created for existing media, or if they'll just be created for new media as it's added.

I need to write the process down as there is obvious confusion here. I cannot sneak more than a couple of mins from work at the moment to do it, but: 1st thing is cache is built of files and folders that exist in memory. This is for later clean and update operations. When the m3u is read, it is completely read into memory before any output file operations happen. The ignore list is processed at the import and the m3u lines are not added to the list in memory. So in memory is a modified m3u file, that is filtered by the ignore list. Then this is sorted into categories,live TV, TV show and movies. I don't remember off my head which is next, but The vod strm files are created and the m3u split files are created. Then the directory update and clean up happens, including checking if links in the strm files themselves have changed. If they are they are updated. That's a rough guide of how the plugin runs, and that's why the vods have a delay before being written.

You mean that you want to keep the collection sorting same as MDBList right? I'm afraid not. Within Emby you have different ways to sort it though. Personally I like to have "update_items_sort_names_default_value = true". It modifies the sort name for every item in the collection. That way the newest stuff is always first, but it comes with downsides. Explained here: https://github.com/jonjonsson/Emby-MDBList-Collection-Creator?tab=readme-ov-file#sorting-shows-and-movies-by-time-added

The best way is either to run it from the manual trigger > button in scheduled tasks as there will be a progress bar when it is running rather than the manual trigger button in the plugin gui. They both trigger it the same way, but the scheduled task wraps it in a task that monitors it. The progress bar isn't incrementing properly yet but it does move and the task completes it tells you how long it took.

@remid12This is not a plugin problem, but a lag in Emby metadata fetcher. You can add your support here, remember to like first post.

Hi Luke, any Update in the Zidoo integration?

Thanks again, I have decided to use beets instead for tagging, although it was a slight headache to set it up, everything seems to be working now.

Most of the time when people ask me about EPG time shifting, it's almost always to adjust an East coast feed by 3 hours so it can be used for a west coast channel. Being able to edit the EPG time shift or offset right in the channel configuration when you edit the channel makes the most sense in these cases. I'd suggest adding "EPG Time Shift" to the channel edit screen and not touch the Tuners & Guide Sources to start with. This would provide an easy solution for the East/West channel issue as well when a person has a couple channels off an hour needing a little love.

Some quick initial feedback... So, you then essentially go from this now: Songs> Albums> Appears On To potentially having this: Songs> Albums> Albums As Contributing Artist Albums As Composer This is probably the right approach Luke, but maybe you could consider using the already existing familiar terminology to be less verbose, but still understandable, with a cleaner consistent UI, e.g.: Songs> Albums> Artist Appears On Composer Appears On "Appears On" already pertains to Albums in the UI and "Artist" (as opposed to "Contributing Artist") already applies for Songs/Tracks because "Album Artist" is the entity for a complete Album. Then, to be of actual practical use (e.g. selecting a section, browsing, and then playing or shuffling that whole section) the Appears On sections really need to be expandable as well: Songs> Albums> Artist Appears On> Composer Appears On> Also, consider that many customers may not want/need the separation, and incomplete/incorrect tags could also cause many unforeseen problems, so perhaps a “Group By” function could be used, e.g.: Group By: None (default) Songs> Albums> Appears On> Group By: Artist / Composer Songs> Albums> Artist Appears On> Composer Appears On> That's enough for now... will be interested to know if any of this has any merit...

I have a similar situation: most networks run a state-specific IPTV feed, but one only runs a national IPTV feed. So I have to subscribe to, and pay for, two TV guides: one in west coast time and one in east coast time. I use the west-coast-time one for the networks that have a state-specific feed, and the east-coast-time one for the network that only runs the national feed. If I could type an offset into the national channels, and thus get rid of one of my TV guide subscriptions, that would be excellent.

I agree with @Carlo. In my situation, i have an IPTV service, but use Emby's guide data. My provider gives me east and west coast channels (USA Network East & USA Network West), but when I use the correct zip codes, the east coast guide matches with what is on the channel, but the West coast guide is showing exactly the same as the east coast even though the west coast is 3 hrs behind

That sounds great. Thank you

I will try thanks

OK we are looking into this. Thanks.

@Luke In further testing this issue appears to have resolved itself. The TV is wired on gig ethernet so it is unlikely to be a network issue. Maybe the server was busy? maybe I needed to force close the app? (which I did) Who know? I'll post again if it rears its ugly head again.

When trying to view live TV I constantly get an "Invalid URI" error. However, all of my channels and the relevant guide data are loading just fine. I'm not sure where to go from here. The provider is working on all other devices, just not within Emby. EDIT: I just didn't wait long enough. Giving a few minutes for everything to settle, it's all working now.

Not really - but a question that a lot of people fail to add into the debate is time/hassle. A Shield Pro 'just works' with Emby out the box - no hacking required, no linux custom builds, no kodi required (and it's constant hacks..), no updated firmware, no messing about at the start of a movie night - I hit play - I get Dolby True HD and Atmos or DTS:X out my Denon and have done for the last 5 years without fail. But would I spend that amount of money today on what I agree is old hardware - 'probably' as I don't plan on using AV1 until it's much more mature (and encoding at speed is widespread) and I don't have any HDR10+ TV's - as Dolby Vision is still the superior technology. Shield supports DV 5,7 & 8 without issues. So yes, it's hanging by a very thin thread, but nothing out there surpasses the Shield Pro for my current 'cinema' needs. btw - all my other streamers (of which I and family have many) are all Amazon devices running Emby for FireTV - zero issues in many many years of service.

+1 for this please! In the mean time, you can use rclone with a local: mount to hide the files (can hide the NFOs too if you need since Emby STILL WANTS TO CREATE COLLECTIONS EVEN WHEN WE DON'T WANT THEM). I do this myself and it works. Create an rclone mount similar to the following, noting the exclude line. [Unit] Description=rclone Service for Emby Wants=network-online.target After=network-online.target [Service] Type=notify Environment=RCLONE_CONFIG=/home/<user>/.config/rclone/rclone.conf RestartSec=5 ExecStart=/usr/bin/rclone mount \ --allow-other \ --uid=1000 \ --gid=1000 \ --copy-links \ --no-checksum \ --checkers=64 \ --disable=ListR \ --buffer-size=0M \ --read-only \ --async-read=true \ --poll-interval=0 \ --vfs-cache-mode=off \ --exclude="*.{jpg,jpeg,png}" \ local:/mnt/<where your RO media files are> /mnt/emby ##this becomes your Emby Library path ExecStop=/usr/bin/fusermount -u /mnt/emby [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

@unitymediahave you taken a look at our music naming guide? Music Naming You can follow the same structure for audio books, just use the audio books content type when setting up the library. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

There is now an OpenLibrary plugin in the Emby Plugin catalog for books, and it supports ISBN lookup. Please try it out and report your experience. Thanks !

OK please see here

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that Sammy.

By any chance did you turn on the option in settings to use an external player for Live TV?
