Music video play back stops after playing 1 video

[Josh4u 3]

Strange one but hopefully someone can help. I have quite a large music video setup in my Emby server (that library set as music videos) which plays the videos fine if I simply choose play or shuffle play from the initial library screen BUT if I choose to play say a video half way down the library list it will only play that one video then stop rather then playing from that video onwards?

Is there a way to play the rest of the music videos after the one I choose such as the way tv episodes automatically do?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, this is normal. If you want to play them all you need to click play all on the folder, or use the context menu on a specific video and select play all from here. 

Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Hi Luke thanks for the reply but there is no "play all from here" option?

I am using the latest windows server and a firestick 4k as the client.

I can "play all" which plays the first music video then the second etc or choose "shuffle" which then plays them randomly BUT if I want the videos to play from half way down the library it will only then play the one music video then stop. You mentioned I should be able to use the context menu on a specific music video and select "play all from here" but there isn't one? 

From the main library display I can "play all" or "shuffle all" - opening 1 of the music video there are no further options or context menu?

In this music video library I have say 150 music videos surely there must be a way to start playing them other than from the very first one every time?

Please see attached.

It would not be on the individual video screen, but rather the list screen, in the long press context menu. Looks like this hasn't been added to the android tv app yet but we can look at doing that. Thanks.

I have downloaded the android version of emby and side loaded it which does have the "play from here" feature - do you think this will be added to the official Firestick emby app at some point?

Yes it will. Thanks for the feedback.

Good afternoon Luke - any ideas when this will be added to the proper firestick app? Plays the music videos fine BUT can only play them in random order or from the first video onwards still no "play from here" option?

Cheers.
