Roland.Stranneborn 4 Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 Hi, I'm using Emby for Android TV on an Nvidia Shield since there isn't any Emby client for my LG WebOS6. I tried to find a Display Mode option, like I have on e.g. the Desktop Webinterface, but I can't find it. I'd like to have "My Media" using multiple lines, using Desktop Display Mode..
rodainas 191 Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 You can sideload the standard android app.
ebr 16184 Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 Hi. The Android TV app was designed specifically for TV use so does not have display mode. As suggested, you can side-load the standard Android app on the device. However, if you put it in anything other than TV display mode, you will likely have trouble navigating with the remote control.

OK, thank you. But then my question is: why can't we have Desktop Mode when we use Emby for a TV? I'd like My Media to use as many rows it needs to, before then other sections (Continue Watching etc) comes. 1
FrostByte 5392 Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 Changing it to My Media (small) will wrap the media libraries in ATV. Other than it would have to be some kind of option added to wrap the larger icons 2

But that isn't really what you want. You are actually just requesting that My Media take multiple rows. On a TV where scrolling is much slower than something like a desktop, having to scroll by all of those items and also not be able to see anything else without scrolling would not be good for the majority of people. Its possible such an option could be provided in the future though. For now, you can use the other app and see if desktop mode will behave properly for you on the TV.

Como hago para instalarla? Muchas gracias...

Una vez instalada e intentando iniciar la aplicación con mi usuario, no se despliega un teclado para introducir mi contraseña. Como lo hago? Muchas gracias...

Set "Don't require a password on the local network" in User settings, so you'll need no keyboard to login. 1

En Android TV tengo establecido la tasa de refresco y la coincidencia de resolución activadas. Tengo que hacer algo en la app de Emby para Android? Muchas gracias...

If latter, check your app Playback settings quality, if set on "Auto" change to some fixed numeric value higher than the bitrate of the item you're trying to play. 10 minutes ago, Banquero said: En Android TV tengo establecido la tasa de refresco y la coincidencia de resolución activadas.
