Any New Updates for Roku App


Recommended Posts

Posted

I upgraded my Emby server to 4.10, which comes with allot a new cool features THANK YOU!  ON the server I was able to create some new Home screen layouts. based on Dynamic media, and Single collections.  One of the collections I created was for all kids movies I have. 
On the web I can see the Kids section, and it lets me scroll all the moves, or I can select the Title (Kids ) and it bring it up to a new screen  where I am able to view all the movies in that collection. 

 

However on the Emby Roku app, 
The kids home section only scrolls to a max of 24 movies. The roku app even shows at the top 1of 24. It seems like 24 is is max you can view. The emby app on Roku also does ot allow you to click on the Title to take you to a screen to see all movies.  
Not sure if there a new update for Roku coming to allow some of the features to work correctly.

Hi.  Being able to select the title would double the amount of remote clicks necessary to navigate vertically so we want to avoid that in TV apps.  If the row is made up of a playlist you will get an item at the end to open the playlist.  We'll look to expand that to some of the dynamic rows where possible.

Thank you, 

Yeah i tried to use the playlist option, but the default appearance is in list form for playlist, which makes sense for music, but not movies.  If there was a an option at end of the Dynamic rows, or collections, to where after you get passed 24 the next option is a button or tag that says see more. Click on the see more button, which then takes you to that collection, or another screen that displays all the movies you have for that row, collection. 

This might be more of a feature request now.

Yes, we already do that in the Android TV app.  I'll look to extend that to Roku.  Thanks.
