Is Windows version 4.8.10.0 real?

As the title states! So, I looked at the dashboard of my server this morning and it is telling me that 4.8.10.0 is available. I do not update from that area, rather choosing to shut down the server and update from a dloaded file from your site. Back when I had my server on a WD PR2100 nas, this was not an issue as the dloaded file always has the version in the filename. The Windows version does NOT have the version number in the filename and I would like to request that the version be added for clarity. I suspect that 4.8.10.0 is real (as when I look at the file to dload from the WD area it has that in the filename), but the file is the same exact size as the last update (4.8.9.0). The area in the forums for latest versions does NOT have 4.8.10.0 there yet so you can see where my confusion is. I do believe that adding the version number to the filename would easily stop any confusion in the future.

If I missed something, please feel free to correct me!

If you download from https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases then the version number is clearly there.  Are you perhaps just downloading the installer which finds the latest version and gets that?

I usually dload from the Emby website, which has a dload button under the Windows area. Same as I did for the nas. If I do the nas dload it includes the version number. If I do Windows, there is no version number, only setup.exe.

I just dloaded that file from your link. Really have to dig just to run the installer from there!

Hi

Would like to report that I am also seeing the same thing as Checkoutside.  My windows server notified of new version, 4.8.10.0.  I downloaded the setup file directly from the Emby website and my server is now updated to 4.8.10 but in the forum the release notes state that latest version is 4.8.9

Even though I know the "latest versions" topic is not always up to date, if it had been I would have went ahead. I did do that later, but with no version in the filename, and no verification in the "latest versions" topic, I was not sure if it was correct.

Not a HUGE deal, just something to maybe look at getting a bit better.

Correct to both of these and it being handled if not already done.

Yep requiring human interaction with that page and also state to PM the mod if something is not up to date.  But @CBerswill update it when gets a chance.
