Emby Beta - Apple TV - Weird issue when next episode queues up

[mike12806 4]

I'm seeing a weird issue where after an episode is done, the next episode starts playing kind of in the background (but is also partially showing through the intersitial screen...)

I'm on Emby beta 4.9.0.37 and Emby apple TV version 1.9.3 (3) 

Here's a picture of what it looks like (you can see the video in the background kind of filtering through). It's like the interstitial screen gets "stuck" 

Not super comfortable sharing logs here publically but can send them if needed (albeit I don't see any errors in the logs...)

Hey @Lukejust a heads up, still seeing this (even on 4.9.0.40) - anything I can provide to make debugging easier?

Hi, we're looking into this. Thanks.

@Luke- FYI, when I downgraded back to stable / latest release (4.8.10.0) - the issue went away... hope that helps!

How did you downgrade?

[mike12806 4]

The hard way  Rebuilt my config and metadata database (my media is separately hosted on a remote SMB share on my NAS that’s wired into Kubernetes, where I run Emby). Since I’m a single user, wasn’t a big deal!

Spoke too soon @Luke- happening again on 4.8.10.0

HI, please try Emby for Apple TV 1.9.5 and let us know how things compare. Thanks !

So far so good! Left the TV on most of the day to test us out lol. Will let you know if I notice anything weird and thanks again!

Spoke too soon. It's still doing the same thing.

I'm seeing the same behavior. When a new episode starts the backdrop image remains on screen and the episode seems to play behind it. The screenshots above show exactly what is happening to me and others. I'm on 1.9.5(4).

Hi, we'll take another look at this. Thanks guys.
