Carlo 4560 Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 Or use a network share instead of thumb drive which is how I do it. Either way works fine.
crusher11 1101 Posted July 9, 2021 Author Posted July 9, 2021 The last time I sideloaded an app, it was inaccessible in my apps menu and I have not to this day figured out how to open it, so...disinclined to go that route. However, I searched for Emby on the play store and it gave me an update option, so I'm now on 2.0.30, which is at least closer.
Carlo 4560 Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 If you sideload the app it will replace your current Emby app so there should be no looking around for it. The apps all show the same way regardless of how they were loaded (store or sideload). 1

vdatanet 1617 Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 I remember someone saying that sideloading was so easy that even @crusher11 could do it, that folk was wrong. 4
