Next episode is played automatically regardless of the settings

Sorry for bringing this up again, but exactly the same happens to me when I use the app on my phone casting to tv. All have been good but yesterday I realized emby now keeps playing the whole season of a show all night even if I just play one episode. What has changed?

Edit:

I have the correct settings, has been working fine before, never changed anything, but now I can see the playlist get populated with the whole show, not just a season, even when I play just a single episode.

HI there, can you please provide a specific example?

How to Report a Problem

Thanks !

Sure, just before I went to bed I went into a TV show, selected just one episode and started it. Now 6 hours later the show keeps going.

It should be in the end of the logs. I noticed something now, I installed the CoverArt plugin yesterday just to see what it was. Would be very strange if thats the cause. Other than that, I hope it helps.

Update: I have been troubleshooting a bit, this only happens if i cast from the app on my android phone to a Chromecast. It doesn't happen if i just look on my phone, cast to Emby web or just watch on Emby web.

Hi, can you please give it another try with Chromecast? Thanks.

Can confirm, it works for me now. What did you do? What was the problem?

I updated our Chromecast receiver. It receives the instruction to play the episode and it handles figuring out the play queue, so that's why no app update was needed.
