I am testing the ONN 4K Plus Google TV OS...so far...impressed..

Using the Emby for Android...there is also Emby for Android TV, not sure which one to use...

Main question is...

Unlike the ROKU, if you pause a movie/TV on the remote and press the HOME button on the remote.. When you go back into Emby is goes to the HOME SCREEN, but on the ONN $k streaming, it starts off at the last place you were at...pause TV/movie and does NOT got to the Emby home screen..

is this a bug ont he APP or the Device??

It's neither, that's how putting apps in the background functions on Android. Once you restore them/bring to foreground, you continue where you left off.

ok..

anyway to not have it do that??

I have a Samsung galaxy and I guess I CLOSE the app, so when I re-open the emby on my phone it goes to the emby home screen...

Either exit the app or go back to Emby's Home Screen (long-press Back button from wherever you currently are) and then press Home button on the remote. Or do nothing and just long-press Back once you're back in the app.

does it matter which version of the EMBY app to use...Emby for TV or Emby for Android??

Doesn't matter, though AndroidTV app has Logoff time setting, so you can set it to lowest value and it'd automatically log you off after short period of time, as if you exited the app, and subsequent login will put you on Emby's Home Screen.

I've tried both the Emby for TV and  Emby for Android and find the TV app superior.

Hi, why is that exactly?
