lbkBrad 1 Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago I'm very new to Emby after a long Plex run and mostly use Roku. While I still prefer the Roku app because of longer 'latest' list and image-size control in collections, I did see 2 killer features in the Emby Android app. One is the '3-dots' button and all the options behind that - really next-level cool. The other is what I'm posting here - the 'About' section if you scroll all the way down on a movie page. I'm used to having some of this info in Plex and really miss it, so I'm requesting consideration to add the About section to the bottom in Roku app also. If it matters, here are the specific items useful to me: file name, resolution, AV codecs, audio bitrate, and the big one for me: date last played. That it - hope that makes sense. The '3-dots' button seems like a bigger ask, but maybe that has already been requested so I'll look. Thanks support and devs - I'm really liking Emby so far.
Luke 42922 Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Hi this is great feedback. Yes we can get the app caught up in these areas. Quote One is the '3-dots' button and all the options behind that - really next-level cool. Where in the app are you referring to?
lbkBrad 1 Posted 49 minutes ago Author Posted 49 minutes ago Luke, I'm attaching 2 pics from the android app that will maybe help. the first one shows the '3-dots' button on a movie page (last button on the right) and the 2nd is of course what pops up when it is clicked - basically what I'm used to seeing on the server web page. I can totally see myself spending way too much time playing with images from my remote control.....but it's cool . thanks Luke.
Luke 42922 Posted 43 minutes ago Posted 43 minutes ago Right OK, there are a lot of features in that menu and many of them will just never make it to the Roku app. It's not realistic to port all of those management functions to Roku. And of course there's no download feature with Roku. But the first five items in your screenshot should all be in the Roku app already, albeit presented a little differently.
lbkBrad 1 Posted 37 minutes ago Author Posted 37 minutes ago yep, I suspected that might be the case....thanks for confirming. and from those first five, adding to collection is an example of another really useful function to me. 1
