Restricted tags showing in LiveTV tag view

[NDF1978 7]

I have set up a M3U tuner that adding a tag to all the channels and setup a coresponding user that has the access options set to "Only Allow Items with these tags".

The user is restricted from seeing and accessing the channels as expected, however in the tag view all the tag groups are showing up with the restricted ones as empty folders.

Is this a bug or expected behavior? this is in the web client on server Version 4.9.1.90

Hi, have you updated to Emby Server 4.9.3? Has that helped?

Tag groups appear even when all of the items within are limited, which is expected with LiveTV. Empty folders still show up even when users are unable to access the channels. You would need to rearrange the tag hierarchy or make specific UI changes to clear things up.

HI, empty groups should not be there.
