We're buying a SVG2482-AC to replace our Xfinity modem and I have a couple of questions.

My question is I noticed a couple of extra settings on their page about port forwarding that make look like it's going to be harder to setup than the Xfinity modem is. The Xfinity modem all I had to do was have to enter the port number, click save, and was good to go. On Arris's page they mention a tcp / udp and finding the information in the server in this case Emby. I had a look through the Emby settings but didn't see anything. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks

emby uses TCP over the internet.

Ok so just add the port, select my device, and set to TCP?

correct, just forward the port to your server's internal IP as TCP.   FWIW if you added both it would still work, just unnecessary.
