Speaking purely as a newbie user to Emby, I would just comment that I don't think I will be changing over from Plex anytime soon, and the MrMC built in meta data, artwork does a far better job than Emby for my collection. I guess each has it's prerequisites for media structure, and my collection is more Plex friendly or something. Plex did far better at about 95%, and just got confused with classic 60's show Avengers and instead confused it with an animated show Avengers Assemble, and similar occurances. It only found correct artwork for about two thirds of my collection, and just inserted video thumbnails for the rest. I checked the Mac Emby server user rights, and everything was correct, but can not play any media, although the library list showed everything.īased purely on the media info of my collection of movies and tv shows, Emby does not do as good a job at finding artwork as Plex does. However, when selecting a movie, it does not play. (Tho never had to do that for TVOS client or iPad)Īfter doing the above, MrMC connected to the Mac Emby server, and could access libraries, and see metadata and artwork etc. ![]() Tried out MrMC, and had problems connecting to the Mac running Emby server.ĭiscovered that the Mac Emby server does not ask for user credentials during install, so had to add an emby local account into the server and link that user to Emby account. Tried out Emby client on the AppleTV4 itself, and it seemed fine. Tried out Emby client on my iPad, and again everything seemed fine. Tested media playback on the local host (Mac itself using the web interface) and everything plays fine that I tried. Setup the Mac Emby server, media libraries etc. ![]() I set up a Mac Mini as Emby Server, rather than mess with a perfectly working PC running Plex. Well, my initial impressions of the Emby native client, as a 'first' time Emby user.
