please update the webos version to the same specs as the android/android TV specs.

Dear Emby Team,

I recently purchased a new LG TV with built-in Chromecast, which means I no longer use my standalone Chromecast. As a result, I’ve switched to the WebOS version of Emby, but I’ve noticed that it lacks some features available in the Android version.

One feature I particularly miss is the ability to access the server settings and dashboard directly from the WebOS app. Along with other missing functionalities, this makes the experience feel less complete. It would be fantastic if the WebOS version could be updated to include the same features as the Android version.

I’d really appreciate it if you could consider this for a future update. Thanks in advance for your time and effort!

Best regards,
Bremke

hi, unfortunately I would say this is unlikely. For starters, embedding all of it would likely push the app size beyond LG's limits.

But more importantly, even if we get past that, then there is LG's extremely difficult review process to contend with. They reject submissions for the most minor of reasons and then threaten to remove your app from the store after consecutive rejections. I honestly just can't imagine going through that process with them for the entirety of the server settings.

Your best bet is probably to combine a smart phone with the LG TV app.

This is  the only  reason we sideload the Android app on a Android tv device.  To get in the server settings.The Android player itself  stutters and hangs. So we use  the AndroidTV version to play media. To bad. Then we will have to use both apps . Phone apps is not an option. Only difference is im not talking about LG. Altough that would be very nice to. But not going to happen i just read.

You never know but I just think it's going to be really hard to get through LG review.
