Hi.  Can you try searching for our standard android app (Just "Emby" on Amazon and "Emby for Android on Google) on the same device's app store and see how that compares?

Thanks.

 

yeah it just seems to be if you watch from Android tv devices.

I have a new provider and now I'm getting the error saying it is taking more than 30 seconds and timing out.

I thought this was fixed in the last update?

Was asked to supply a log (posted over a week ago) and it hasn't even been looked at

Any update?

Hello,
via WebStreams, following problem with playlist,
It plays but with short interruptions, someone can check it

 

FLAC.m3u

[Chillout 117]

Movies and TV shows with commas (,) in the title are not recognized by the metadata scraper.

Forgive me if these questions have already been answered. I've been having some mixed results.

Can anyone confirm that the latest version of the plugin is the one last modified March 12 @10:05am ?

#1 New Movies - I can pull all movies released in 2026 from my M3U, but I can't figure out how to add new ones to the same library/folder as the rest (ideally a bi-monthly task) rather than a separate "Web Streams" library. Is this possible?

#2 TV Series -  I can only grab the 1st episode of the 1st season for each one. Is it possible to add episodes to a handful of shows already in my library as they are released, say in a weekly task, or when a new season shows up on IMDB? Maybe that is too much to ask (I've been chasing this dream for years) - but it must be able to fetch more than just a pilot for each show...either I'm missing some setting, am using an outdated version of the plugin, or there's some kind of glitch in the way it works on my Emby setup (MacOS Server). 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Not sure if this is being supported anymore. OP has gone silent

So I have tried to use this to setup internet radio.

I have added a single stream so only the below. 

https://stream.techno.fm/radio1-320k.mp3

I can play it on mobile but not on Edge.

My other issue is this 

So Emby shows this on the main page

I then click this and then get a further folder as below

I then see this

Which is my radio station, is there any way to remove the extra step so it only shows on the top level the content. 

The other thing I would like is to take my VOD TV m3u and add it directly into the TV library and the same option with Movies.

I currently convert my m3u to strm files and add them this way, can this plugin do this or do I have to stick with my current setup?

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hi, can you try again? I do not see it.

This has been bothering me for some time. the version in the catalog will not play general audio.

Confirming the download from page 8 works well.

Thanks for getting this working.

Hi, what exactly happens when you try?

[Swaybars69 0]

Playback error when setting to General Audio. Played fine when set to video.

Downloaded this version and followed the installation instructions from page 8 of this post and playback of general audio works.

 

Shown working

 

 

This is the version now installed that will play audio as an audio stream.

so I downloaded 4.9.1.36 and play audio works (page

but from the plugins catalog only 4.9.1.28 is available and this will not play audio as an audio stream.

Hi,

I'm trying to use the following public IPTV playlist with Emby:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jnk22/kodinerds-iptv/master/iptv/clean/clean_tv.m3u

The playlist imports successfully, but only a small number of channels are playable.

Some channels work normally, but most channels won't start at all in Emby. There is no playback; they simply fail to begin streaming.

The same playlist works perfectly in VLC. All channels I've tested start and play without any issues there.

Is this playlist expected to work in Emby, or are there known compatibility issues with some of the streams contained in it?

Thanks
