Live TV Features in Emby for FireTV vs Emby for Android versions on FireTV device.

[ab123ga 14]

If you install the Emby for FireTV, it appears to note the Android version is the one that would be the latest and greatest. There are a number of features in the FireTV version that I don't see in Android version plus 1 lagging issue. 

1. If a channel via an M3U is not mapped to a EPG, the guide in Android version is left blank. When you scroll down it moves the guide focus all the way to the left. This happens to me because I have favorites first then channel number and I sort by Fav/Channel numbers. When you get past the items with no guide info you have to move all the way back to the right to get to current time.  In FireTV version it fills out the guide noting there's no information. This allows you to scroll down without the focus moving all way to the left. 
2. Emby for FireTV has a start up feature (return to last channel watched) for Live TV that is nice. I have 1 TV that I would like to just go to the same channel every time.  Emby for Android does not seem to have this option. 
3. Issue for me - When in Emby for Android in the guide. If you hold the down arrow to quickly scroll, there are times that the guide just stops moving. The best way at times is to hit the down arrow one at a time.  Emby for FireTV I can hold the down arrow and fast movement through the guide is no issue. 

All in all, I like the LiveTV and would prefer to use the latest version. A few added features would be great.
