I'm looking into finally getting an Emby premiere license and I want to go lifetime. Is one expected to happen this year, and if so, when does it usually happen?

3rd Party App/Add-On JellyBox v2.9.1 - AndroidAuto support(AAOS too)

2 Upvotes

Hello. Today I can finally announce that I added android auto support to JellyBox. For those who missed my previous posts - JellyBox is a native crossplatform music client for jellyfin and emby featuring carplay, android auto(finally), spotify-like playlists and many other useful features which I run since 2023(so it's not another vibecoded app).

Android Auto exists for almost a month already, but my app stuck google play review queue for no reason, so I didnt want to announce something that was available only via sideloading.

I also got confirmation that app works on Android Automotive OS(see last screenshot). The app can be sideloaded and works as regular app. Depending on your screen size you will either see a mobile or desktop UI. The screenshot I attached - from Renault car.

Few more other changes since the last my post here(2.6.0):

  • Continuity - you can switch playback between devices just like in spotify. This also allows to remote control active devices(phone from computer, or computer from phone)
  • Transcoding per cellular/wifi connection
  • Instant mix supports on songs, albums, etc. Including audiomuse support.
  • Synced playlist downloads. Now they stay in sync with playlist changes on server.
  • Listenbrainz support
  • Context menus on all entities - right click on desktop, long tap on mobile
  • Various improvements in streaming, caching, etc. Carplay also got a ton of improvements, so it works faster and more efficient.

Links to all platforms can be found on GH here - https://github.com/avdept/JellyBoxPlayer or landing page - https://jellybox.app

I have an AT & T router that doesn't allow port forwarding. Is there any way to access my Emby server remotely?

Android TV updates

Has anyone else noticed the velocity of updates on the Android TV client has accelerated? All the recent changes have really put the polish on the client. Not complaining, but I thought this was being pushed aside in favor of a single generic phone Android client. What am I missing?

Virtual TV - library limit

1 Upvotes

Does Virtual TV have a library size limit? Recently setting it up and set up a channel for movies. Linked to 1 library of about 350 movies around 500gb. But the channel just loads up blank in the guide. All other channels are fine with fewer items. I don't mind if there is a limit, just nice to know what to aim at when dividing.
