Updates: Added missing admin help buttons to the header-icon-colors Fixed the logo that took a nap when the sidebar was collapsed. More ordering options (see section 1 updates) Fixes to some icon colors, more targeted. (see section 1 updates for a new color being used) Fix to --play-button-display not being respected anymore Section 1 Updates: If you customized your CSS, you could keep your section 1 and just update section 2 on down. but here are the important things that were added or changed so you can modify accordingly. Layout ordering has been updated to this to add in more targets /* --- LAYOUT & ORDERING --- */ --order-seasons: 1; /* Vertical order of Seasons section */ --order-next-up: 2; /* Vertical order of Next Up section */ --order-more-from: 3; /* Vertical order of "More from Season/Artist" sections */ --order-chapters: 4; /* Vertical order of the Chapters row */ --order-included-in: 5; /* Vertical order of "Appears In" / Collections section */ --order-cast-crew: 6; /* Vertical order of Cast & Crew section */ --order-similar: 7; /* Vertical order of "More Like This" (Similar) section */ --order-about: 8; /* Vertical order of the Text Overview/About section and Media stream info cards */ New variable section /* --- STATUS OK COLORS --- */ --status-ok: rgba(76, 175, 79, 1); /* Good status color, green checkmarks */ Emby Navy and Gold v5.4.css Side note. I have request more user accent color options and to include our gold in there. So hopefully we can get rid of that variable option. I would like your support and upvote in this forum topic:

Would it be simple or possible to add in more User accent color options? I've been working on a CSS theme that can heavily utilize the user accent colors and would love to see more options. And a special request of gold at Hex: #FFB900, RGBA(255, 185, 0, 1). I know super low hanging fruit here, but it should be an easy win... Also, you have "Emby" and "Green" options they both seem to be the same. Thanks!

Yes you should. If you don't, then you'll end up with a movie that has only a movie db id and nothing else.

Ok that makes sense - it was a 4 hour delay though last time. I will embark on remounting to NFS at some point though. One other thing to ask quickly - one episode from a series failed (for some reason) and I can't seem to find a way to tell it to try again... Maybe I'm being dense but do I just have to cancel the whole job and then re-do?

Hi, yes we can add more, but they need to be dark enough so that you can put white text on them.

My 2 cents: Direct play (no transcoding) will be fine. If clients can play files natively, this setup is sufficient. 1 to 2 light transcodes (720p / low-bitrate 1080p) is possible, but not consistently reliable and I would not recommend that. The GTX 560 is effectively useless for hardware transcoding. NVENC support is present (first gen), but is too old to be usable. The GTX1080 will improve that situation in comparison to the 560, but for NVENC support the practical minimum is a GTX1650/1660. The CPU will struggle with software transcoding quickly. It is a roughly 15yr old CPU, it lacks modern instruction sets and efficiency. It depends a little on your use-case though. If your usage looks like mostly direct play (Nvidia Shield, modern TVs, Apple TV), 1 to 2 users max and no 4K transcoding, then it will work. Anything needing 2k/4k transcoding will fail and not gracefully. Expect buffering, failed streams, and CPU pegged at 100%. Standardise media formats (H.264/H.265, no exotic codecs) is an absolute must if you want to avoid transcoding on this hardware. Basically this system only works if transcoding is avoided.

For the AI created lists, can you add in support for Ollama (self hosted version), It's a pretty popular AI service a lot of Home lab people like to use.

This is the key. It is how the store identifies the plugin.

While it's good that this is finally being addressed, this comes 6 years after the community first demonstrated how easily library images could be scraped via ID enumeration, and over 2 years after the dev team acknowledged that they plan to address it. Fixing security debt from 2020 isn't exactly a win here. It's just further proof that basic security practices have long been ignored and consistently taken a backseat to other features.

Hi! There is a flag you can set in the cli when running the script to make it not touch the mkv at all, and just save it as a .srt file. Also. It shouldn't be much trouble making a docker version.. The only thing that might not work is the picker function in the linux version (It has a "picker.sh" script that lets you fast-search for movies and shows based on the paths you set in a config file, to make it easy to start the script on a particular movie or show). Tell me if you would like me to make a docker version, and i will look into it. That said, it automatically runs in its own environment using venv on linux or conda on powershell, which it auto checks for during installation and offers to install if missing..

If you're running Linux to Linux then NFS might be more reliable.

Tks. The quotes are going to be tricky to accomodate as those are used to pass the params to the external executables - you may have to live with that one. The HDR in AV1 .. good call, I don't think I had an HDR AV1 file to see how Mediainfo presented that. Can you post a JSON output from the file via the GUI Mediainfo ?

@SamESThanks for suggestion. I‘m currently not on site, but I‘ll look into it asap and report back.

On one of the recent Emby beta releases earlier this year, there were optional sub-headings for the new home screen sections. This has since been removed, but I thought I'd try a similar idea for the custom Group By views. This possibly simplifies the Release Type mappings, on import, and also provides a way to show more info without it being the (large-bold-font) main heading: As a proof-of-concept, it seems to be quite useful. Any changes to the Release Type sub-headings and the Decade headings/sub-headings do not require any changes to the Album Tags, so can be updated independently and relatively easy.

Found two little bugs: 1. A movie title enclosed in "" holds back the complete treatment. It's enough to manually edit the metadata and then reprocess. 2. HDR in AV1-encodes doesn't get recognized.

Yocker, could the 'rules' be adjusted to optionally apply to a series rather than tag/studio? Other 'rules' that would be awesome: allow changing detection settings other than image-related? e.g. 'analysis percent', 'min credit length', 'max credit length', 'fingerprint duration'. For example, Netflix has really long credits due to the multilingual translations allow disabling of credit detection at all. For example, JRE podcast essentially has zero credits, and analyzing possibly 25% of the 3+ hour episode (nearly 3000 of them) to end in nothing detected would be a big waste We appreciate your work! Thanks :))

Thanks to the Emby team EmbyIcons can now be found in the catalog. Enjoy!

Took a while with Chatgpt but got it fixed. Some folders were full like transcoding was like using most of the space so AI guided me to fix this at least for now

This is a really helpful pointer. This issue arose just before i went on holiday on the 1st of April, and I don't have those logs any more. I've just updated all the permissions and I'm running a few things as a trial run. Hopefully this will work! Big thanks to both.

Hi, it has been a long while. I understand the frustration. I will send the same message here that I have been trying to send to users of this plugin. Due to unforeseen life circumstances, I haven't be able to be part of this amazing community for many years now. Boy, do I miss writing code for Emby, what a great time it was, and I look back on it fondly as a high point in my life. Meeting great people, and writing code that people actually liked. I'll make this plugin repo public on my GitHub, for anyone who would like to take it on, or any of the emby plugins posted there. Thank you again to all for an absolutely amazing decade of writing code, and allowing me to take part. It really was a great ride! Thank you. chefbennyj.

If you can't watch it on Emby, why is it on Emby? This makes no sense.

Hello, I have been testing with this css theme and I do like it. However I noticed when I collapse the side bar without closing it, there is still a gap on the left side. The gap goes away if I completely close the side bar. I tested this both with Firefox and Brave browsers. Thanks!

Emby’s gradual rollout of Apple Silicon GPU acceleration is because macOS relies on a different video pipeline (VideoToolbox) that needs to be properly wired into ffmpeg. Since Emby uses ffmpeg for transcoding, the real work lies in making that integration stable on Apple’s tightly controlled hardware, not in the language or CPU translation layer. As an independent technical user with no affiliation to Emby, it’s obvious Luke and the team are putting in serious effort while also supporting a wide range of platforms. Hardware acceleration on something like a Celeron-based NAS didn’t happen overnight either—it took time to mature. This will get there as well, and when it does, it should deliver the same level of stability Emby users already expect.
