Continue watching (android TV)

[Dualstinger 1]

Hi all,

Any way I can show the continue watching on my android TV home page?

At the moment it shows suggested for (on customise channels) but would love to be able to show continue watching if that's at all possible 

 

Cheers for any help

Hi, what device is it?

[Dualstinger 1]

Thanks for the reply mate,

It's an android TV box running android 11

As I say it shows suggested for (then my email) but would be nice if it was to show continue watching 

Many thanks

Hi.  Can you try sideloading our standard android app on the same device and see how that compares?

I believe he is talking about the device home screen.  @Dualstingeris that correct?

[Dualstinger 1]

That is correct.

I have uploaded a picture on my TV homepage 

 

Thanks very much

This integrates with the system "Watch Next" channel on the device home screen.

Thanks.

So does the TV app but I can see in his screen shot that he has that turned off...

Thank you very much for pointing that out.

This has now fixed the issue and a new tab has popped up on the homepage 

Thank you community for the help

Any chance to get Continue Watching as a standalone channel like Suggested is?

I don't want to see my Emby content mixed in with all the other stuff in Watch next. I'd like to have it nice and clean on its own. I'm kind of baffled it was decided to give Suggestions as a channel instead of Continue Watching. It's my database built by me. I don't want suggestions for it, I want to continue watching.

Hi.  The problem is that Google is moving away from giving us the ability to do these types of things.  It only now works on older versions of Android TV.
