"Claims to be an open source application, downloaded and installed the server, at no point does it say it requires a subscription to unlock features. I set up a live TV source, says I need to restart the server. After the restart, it ``updated`` and now says nothing will work without a subscription, and the 1 feature that I was looking for is disabled. That is NOT in keeping with the open source products I`ve used in the past, and I will not be investing any more effort to work with this."

"A lot of bugs. For example this is the only app that messes with Bluetooth whenever it`s run, my TV doesn`t recognize connected Bluetooth headphones, the start/pause button on my headset doesn`t work. Guess what, if I exit the app, then everything is working properly. One more, If I stop a movie and there`s another recently played movie then it will disappear, ok, you can restart the app and both movies will appear in the recently played movies section. And they want me to pay for Emby Premium?"

"For the most part everything works fine, but when I have multiple versions of recorded TV shows and movies, it will only play the original video file. For example, I use Mcebuddy to remove commercials, but I want to keep the original files in case MceBuddy cuts too much out. I select the other video file, but it refuses to play it and only plays the original. This does not happen on the regular Emby app, only on the Android TV version. Very strange and I hope it gets fixed soon."

"This app is ok but they need to make the poster wall a full grid that is
vertically scrollable and not just a couple/few rows that are horizontally
scrollable. They also need to put a letter bar to the right that allows a
quick jump to that letter in the grid. Take a look at Plex`s Android TV app
as to how it should be."

"Cannot get past login screen. I enter my credentials (which works on browser or regular Emby android app), but then I just get black screen. Unusable on my Beelink GT King. Samsung Tizen TV (H series)is terrible. Happy to troubleshoot, but considering Plex as the app works without issue on Android box and Samsung TV."

"Can somebody at Emby explain to me why after two years I get an I have to unlock the app message for a one time fee. Not crazy about that but I paid it. Now I am trying to continue to use the Emby for Android TV app and playback is broken and I am in a stupid loop with the app recognizing I`ve paid but STILL NOT letting me continue to use to playback my content. This was a great app up until now but it`s trash at this point. FIX IT!!!!"

"Works well, most importantly great feedback from the devs if you have issues or questions on their forum. Unlike Plex, time-shifting and recording TV works well."

DESCRIPTION
Bringing all of your personal media together into one place has never been easier! Emby unites your personal videos, music, and photos and streams them to all your devices.
This app is free and will function for browsing your collection. For library playback, you need to either unlock the app with a small in-app purchase or have an active Emby Premiere subscription. The very first time you install the app, it will function for playback for a two week trial period. After this period expires, the in-app purchase or Emby Premiere subscription will be required. The trial will never convert to a paid subscription automatically.
You will have to purchase one of the options in the app. Some other features, such as Live TV are only available with Premiere.
Get the free Emby Server at http://emby.media (required as part of your Emby install).
• Automatically converts your media on-the-fly to play on any device.
• Organizes your media into an elegant display with artwork, rich metadata and related content.
• Easily share your media with friends and family.
• Rich parental control and management features allow you to easily control access for your entire family.
• Stream your cloud-synced media (with installed cloud sync providers)
