Gilgamesh_48 1240 Posted April 18, 2025 Posted April 18, 2025 This link is a bit concerning for me: Amazon’s Fire TV is Ditching Android TV & Switching to In-House Vega OS My reading is that it is new devices that will be affected but I was wondering if this is a problem for Emby on existing Fire devices. But it is concerning when a device i use is even potentially going to use a different OS. Also does this potentially mean additional complexities for Emby in supporting another OS? Inquiring minds want to know.
Sammy 790 Posted April 18, 2025 Posted April 18, 2025 Doesn't look to update current devices but if I were you, I'd go with GoogleTV on all future devices. IDK for sure but I think it would be something that can be compiled from the original code with some minor tweaks made but am not sure.
Luke 42077 Posted April 18, 2025 Posted April 18, 2025 That's old news which unfortunately hasn't happened yet.

How would I know or even expect that it is old news? Also, "Unfortunately?" Is Vega really that much better an OS for Emby on the Fire?
Solution Luke 42077 Posted April 19, 2025 Solution Posted April 19, 2025 They announced it a couple years ago but it has taken a long time to get moving. So this article doesn't really cover that. I think it has the potential to be a higher performing OS.
