Please note - we're still considering this experimental and it is not yet supported on all operating systems. It's currently limited to Windows and select Linux releases.
  • To try it out, just enable it in the server dashboard. Important: Your setting for hardware decoding has now been reset and merged into one hardware acceleration setting.

New in Emby Server 3.0.5713.0 Beta (Aug 23, 2015)

  • A new beta server is currently going out and now includes built-in Live TV support, improved performance, and many other enhancements.
  • Now Supporting your HD Homerun Tuner, No External Software Needed:
  • As you know we really enjoy Live TV here at Emby, but with our support previously dependent on external software, we know that it hasn't always been easy to get up and running. Today, we're pleased to bring you built-in Live TV support that does not require any additional software.
  • Automatic Discovery of your HD Homerun Tuner on Your Network:
  • The startup wizard makes this very simple for you. In most cases, we'll be able to discover your tuner devices. If not, then you can easily enter the IP Address of the device. M3U playlists are also supported as a tuner source.
  • Easy Guide Data:
  • Currently we have one source, and that is Schedules Direct, but we plan to add more sources for additional countries in the future. We'd also like to support Xml TV data. Setup is very easy. Just enter your info and you're good to go.
  • Your DVR Has Never Been Easier, Never Looked Better:
  • We think this screen speaks for itself. Rich metadata displays make it very easy to find something you'd like to watch, or record.
  • Enjoy Live TV on Any Device:
  • Whether it's Android for smart phones, tablets, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, Windows Tablets, Windows Phone, Roku or a web browser, Emby has you covered.
  • Automatic Tuner Pooling:
  • If you have multiple tuner devices, great! Emby will automatically group them into one virtual channel grid, and will appropriately delegate streaming in order to prevent conflicts from multiple clients.
  • Supports HD Homerun Transcoding:
  • If you have an HD Homerun that supports H264 transcoding, Emby will take advantage of it whenever possible in order to offload transcoding and preserve resources on your server machine.
  • Unrivaled Parental Controls:
  • Would you like to limit the programs and channels your children can access? It's easy, and it's nearly automatic. When you set a max parental rating for your users, they will not even be able to see restricted programs in their TV Guide. To block entire channels, you can set your own parental ratings for certain channels, or you can use the block by tags feature.
  • Stay Informed with Suggestions:
  • Whether you like movies, sports, or just want to find something for your kids, Emby can help you find what you're looking for.
  • Seamless Integration with other Emby Features:
  • This is the fun part you'll enjoy most. Other Emby features that are designed for your media library are also accessible from Live TV. Just to name a few:
  • Mobile Sync and Cloud Sync
  • Suggestions
  • Auto-Organize
  • User Data Cross-Over:
  • Your likes and watch states are now transferable from Live TV movies to movies in your media library. We plan to soon bring the same features to TV series, allowing you to blend data from every possible source into one seamless experience. Only on Emby.
  • More Live TV to Come:
  • We wanted to get a beta out to let you all start playing with it, but there are plenty of enhancements already in our minds, such as:
  • Manual conflict management (currently Emby will try to automatically resolve recording conflicts)
  • On the fly conversion of recordings into streaming-friendly formats
  • More in-video features to quickly change channels
  • New and Improved Search:
  • Live TV and internet channel content are now searchable
  • Repeat Mode:
  • Now you can toggle repeat mode using the now playing bar. It allows you to quickly change between Repeat None, Repeat All, and Repeat One. Not only is this supported by the local player, but also when remote controlling other players that have added support for it.
  • Play a Slide Show while you listen:
  • The next time you play a song, head over to the now playing screen. There's a new button that will allow you to launch a photo or movie backdrop slideshow that will play and transition between images while your media is playing in the background. It's a perfect time to put family photos up on the screen with your favorite songs playing in the background.
  • Much Cleaner Detail Screens:
  • We think you'll agree. Detail screens are easier to read and focus on the things you love most.
  • Taglines are Back in Style:
  • We really haven't used them in a while due to the number of metadata features we have. But they add a nice touch to your movie screens, we just felt we had to bring them back.
  • New Voice Commands Added:
  • You can now switch devices as well as toggle display mirroring. Just speak the following out loud: Control [device name]; Enable/Disable/Toggle display mirror
  • Other Changes and Fixes:
  • Fixed people getting lost when local metadata saving is not enabled
  • Sym links not working on certain Linux distros
  • Music artist screens now display similar Artists
  • Fix live tv stream closing on Roku
  • Fix Portugese with open subtitles
  • Dlna special views use series images for better episode identification
  • Fixed Chromecast Live TV playback
  • Movie ratings not respecting language settings
  • Single quotes in subtitle file names causing transcoding failures
  • Mobile sync for apps will now prevent duplicate synced items
  • Fixed roboto font url
  • Updated to ffmpeg 2.7
  • Existing Feature Changes:
  • As we add new features, we constantly have to re-evaluate and look for ways to ensure the system continues to perform well and is easy to use. So to that end, here are a few changes that we've made:
  • Support for MB2-style shortcuts has been deprecated in order to improve performance. They are still supported for boxsets, but if you need them elsewhere you will have to set a hidden config setting, EnableWindowsShortcuts.
  • The internet channel content downloading feature has been moved to a plugin. All features are still available, it's just in a plugin now.
  • For fresh new installs of the server, there will only be one supported metadata saving format per content type. If you need xml saving it is being moved to a plugin. Please note - the feature remains in the core server code for existing server installations. That means your existing install won't be disrupted at all. But the next time you install from scratch, you'll need the plugin if you want the alternative formats. Also, this doesn't affect xml reading, as we want the core server to be able read as many formats as possible to make it easy for new users to get up and running.

  • New "just in time" HLS transcoding will dramatically reduce cpu utilization after the initial client buffering period. You'll now be able to enjoy more simultaneous streams and have more peace of mind about your server's resource consumption. The apps that will benefit from this are the mobile web client, Android, Android TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Windows 8.1, and iOS (coming soon).
  • Faster Video Start and Seek Response Times:
  • You'll notice this in almost every app, with faster, more accurate seeking.

  • Redesigned Now Playing Bar:
  • The now playing bar of the web client has been redesigned with bigger, prettier buttons and a little transparency. We think you'll enjoy it when playing audio or remote controlling other apps.
  • Others:
  • Resolved incorrect aspect ratio when transcoding anamorphic content with Android TV & Fire TV
  • Resolved issue of file handles being left open in Linux when extracting chapter images. This was the primary cause of the Unbutu crashing being reported.

New in Emby Server 3.0.5582.0 Beta (Apr 14, 2015)

  • Control Your Cloud Sync Upload Speed:
  • You can now configure this in the sync settings area.
  • Manage Your Sync Conversion Speed:
  • Now you can control both the speed and the number of CPU cores that are utilized by sync conversion tasks.
  • New Sync Management Settings:
  • Suppose you'd like to give your users access to Sync, but you don't want them hammering your CPU. Now you can limit their access to sync transcoding so that they're only able to sync original files.
  • New User Management Settings:
  • You now have the ability to limit a user's access to transcoding, another tool at your disposal to conserve your CPU. Keep in mind that taking away transcoding could make it impossible to play some content on certain devices. When this happens, your users will receive a friendly error message. We're working hard to get these graceful error messages into every Emby app. Please be patient while we do this.
  • New Streaming Management Settings:
  • Suppose you have limited upload speed and want to enforce a cap for all remote clients. Now you can easily do this from the Streaming settings page. Keep in mind that reducing the allowed bitrate will make transcoding more likely to occur. But as with everything else, it's all your choice.
  • Emby Chooses the Right One:
  • You might have multiple copies of media available thanks to features like Cloud Sync, Folder Sync, and the ability to store multiple copies of a video in a single folder. Emby will choose the most efficient one for every device, and this now incorporates the above management settings. Whether it be limiting access to transcoding, or setting a bitrate limit, all of these options are taken into consideration when choosing the most efficient media source.
  • An All-New Live TV Guide:
  • The guide now fills the screen and is a joy to scroll or flick through. It's fast, it's pretty and it's now free of the double scrollbars it had before. And when you're mobile, it's a whole new experience that's easier and friendlier than ever. Channels are also now sorted by your favorites and likes, which will make it easier for users with hundreds of channels.
  • Sync Your Live TV Recordings:
  • Supported by Cloud Sync, Mobile Sync and Folder Sync!
  • Direct Play Live TV from Supported Clients:
  • If you you're on the Emby Theater beta channel, you'll now enjoy Live TV without any transcoding, subject to support from your installed Live TV provider. Even if transcoding is required, the process will be more efficient than ever.
  • Beautiful Dynamic Thumbnails for Collections & Playlists:

New in Emby Server 3.0.5572.0 (Apr 8, 2015)

  • Reverse proxy playback with the web client
  • Sync ffmpeg processes starting at the wrong times
  • Use of the download button with Emby Connect
  • Introducing Cloud Sync & Folder Sync:
  • We worked really hard on sync during this release cycle to bring you new features that you'll find useful. Cloud & Folder Sync allow you to sync media to external locations, whether it be for backup purposes or to archive content in multiple resolutions. Apps can then stream the content from the cloud instead of your server, thereby sparing your upload bandwidth.
  • Cloud & Folder Sync are your General Purpose Conversion Tools:
  • As you sync content you're free to choose the conversion profile that will determine the output format. In future releases we intend to allow you to modify these profiles directly and even create your own.
  • Syncs Your Subtitles:
  • When you sync to the cloud, your subtitles will be converted to multiple formats, ensuring they're always available no matter what device you're playing from.
  • Goodbye GDI, Hello ImageMagick:
  • We've migrated all of our image processing functions from GDI to ImageMagick, thus clearing the way for the server to run smoothly on NAS devices such as Synology. Look for a Synology package soon. While we were at it, we learned a few new tricks, and in the future you may see the server create more beautiful, automatic images.
  • Enhanced Live TV Metadata:
  • Live TV will now be enhanced with internet metadata for movies, and the suggestions page in the web interface now has an Upcoming Movies section.
  • New Scheduled Task time limit:
  • Now you can configure time limits for scheduled tasks, perfect for long running overnight jobs that you don't want running during usage hours.
  • Support more WTV metadata:
  • We'll now extract episode information from embedded metadata in the event the file is not named according to TV naming recommendations. This hasn't made it to auto-organize yet, but it's planned for the future.
  • DLNA Cast & Crew Setting:
  • We like rich metadata, but we understand many people just want the quickest path from point A to point B. The server dashboard now has a setting to turn off the Cast & Crew feature.
  • New Fanart.TV Images:
  • Support has been added for the following images:
  • Season posters
  • Season banners
  • Other Fixes:
  • Detect incomplete nfo's and supplement with internet metadata
  • Fixed playlist content being playable when it shouldn't be

  • The server management interface has been given some minor touchups to stay up to date with trends and make it easier than ever to find what you're looking for.
  • Shorter URLs:
  • The API now supports url's without the /mediabrowser suffix. When you open the web interface from the tray icon you'll now have a shorter, easier to remember url.
  • SSL now supported:
  • SSL is now supported by configuring an HTTPS port and certificate.
  • Subtitle Encoding Improvements:
  • Thanks to the efforts of Somy and Serios, a number of new character encodings are now supported. We've adopted Mozilla's UniversalDetector library to try and make sure the right encoding is picked for each file.
  • Roku Thumbnails:
  • Thanks to the efforts of a new community member, a new plugin is available in the catalog to generate Roku seek thumbnails. This provides a nice visual experience when seeking on the device. In Roku language this is called Bif trick mode, and the thumbnail generation process creates a .bif file. It even has an option to save the .bif file alongside your media for easy archiving.
  • Revamped web client search:
  • Searching is much faster and more accessible than ever. Just start typing to see visual results. Expect more improvements with this to come.
  • Play All From Here:
  • This function is now available for episodes, allowing you to quickly queue up several at once for playback. These can be played locally or sent to another device.
  • Improved Collection Management:
  • You'll now see the Add to Collection function in many more places throughout the web interface, making it easier than ever to manage them.
  • New Download Button:
  • Now you can easily download your personal media directly from the web interface.
  • Opt-In Access Permissions:
  • The permissions for library and channel access have been slightly re-worked. Previously you've been accustomed to having to opt-out, that is, new libraries become visible to users by default. You can now stop this from happening by unchecking the option to enable access to all. This means that if you add a new library or channel, your users may not be able to see it until you've granted them access.
  • Supply your Personal Fanart.tv API Key:
  • At the request of both Fanart.tv and fans of Fanart, we now have a space where you can enter your fanart personal api key. This will get you access to new images faster as well as other benefits that fanart provides.
  • Create your own custom CSS:
  • Now you design your own CSS rules and apply them to the web interface. Let us know what you come up with!
