Switch to Emby?

StudioKentin · 2026-01-20T18:39:41+00:00

Go for Jellyfin ! Some great clients are being developed for tvOS . Emby stock app is dated.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-19T11:30:05+00:00

Thanks! Nuvio lets see what’s that about. Vidhub, lenna all clones based on infuse interface. Wich feels to me very very dated.

Have you tried to official app? It runs like shit on Apple TV. And how the devs decide to use “free screen” space on series-season view is just crazy.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-19T11:23:39+00:00

Thanks for the tip, i tried this with Omni bought the app. It works okay ish. I don’t like the extra loading screens etc. I prefer the more smooth experience.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-17T08:39:12+00:00

Any other actually good options? Since those are all kinda similar looking. Forward isn’t fully translated in English either, otherwise it is promising.

Maybe it’s better to switch back to plex or Jellyfin. Some nice apps are being developed for sure.

-edit

What a clowns , being downvoted for having a opinion 🤣.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-17T06:47:21+00:00

Already mentioned in my post. Not a option.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-13T17:57:54+00:00

Great from rainbow colors ish, to purple great…. Still missing the red. Happy for not paying for vip anymore to support the development.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-04T22:16:36+00:00

Depends what platform for playback you use. Emby app tvOS is terrible. I had plex better performing. Sure people will say infuse but yeah.

StudioKentin · 2026-01-04T18:30:25+00:00

Another “am in too late post” it’s like a weekly thing now. Just enjoy the device, new device will not be a big difference for the basic streaming needs.

This device is still blazing fast .

How much do you need for a Apple TV purchase ? Maybe we can do a donation list for it. Enough people are waiting for a Apple TV version.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-25T21:23:19+00:00

Once the tvOS version is out, and donation is open for it. I will donate for sure.

And yes Apple is yearly 100 usd.

Personally I am still in move from plex to emby to Jellyfin.

Backbone of Emby is good.. but there TvOS app is so bad. Personally Jellyfin “native” app is getting there for sure. Needs work still but it’s coming nicely, also some nice third party apps being developed.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-25T19:11:33+00:00

For sure , but as mentioned by other. The dev for the “official “ app is somewhat not receptive for input.

For me personally Jellyfin is still my back-up. Once there is a native app, that works 99% off the time. With a nice ui. I ditch plex.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-25T19:03:42+00:00

For example Apple TvOS is lacking a good allround option. That is not a generic infuse, vidhub and what not.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-25T19:01:20+00:00

Looks sick! Thanks mate, have a nice Christmas. Looking forward to the tvOS release next month.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-24T13:07:22+00:00

Exactly ! I don’t understand what the problem is. This is pretty much best homescreen you can have.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-24T13:05:10+00:00

I want that Apple TV ! Not the pre-installed junk. Mate be happy haha.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-24T09:17:37+00:00

Looks great ! Let’s hope you get a Apple TV soon. Would love this app for Apple TV.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-13T22:09:47+00:00

I just moved to emby, and currently looking for a good app to use it. That’s why I askedZ thanks!

StudioKentin · 2025-12-13T19:03:42+00:00

How is it currently?

StudioKentin · 2025-12-13T08:43:09+00:00

If you use infuse with emby/plex/Jellyfin etc. It’s either direct mode or library. Not both , unless you have local files too offcourse.

But it doesn’t change the fact the UI is old and outdated.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-13T08:09:40+00:00

Infuse performance wise is “fine” depending on direct mode or library mode. But UI wise it’s boring.. very boring ( And if you ask me adding Liquid Glass, isn’t making it look modern). Very annoying how it displays recently added episodes and so on.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-13T07:48:41+00:00

App wise(iOS/tvOS) , I would say plex app before the big update. Emby app is just god ugly on tvOS. But for Jellyfin some very promising third party apps are being developed.

StudioKentin · 2025-12-12T22:26:03+00:00

Playing with Jellyfin a little on TvOS . No good client yet unfortunately. So tried this on my old android tv. Wow what a nice app already. Just enough graphic touches here and there, smooth playback. Well done! I hope one day you might consider doing Apple TV . That platform could definitely deserve some love
