We love the old Emby Theater, but this is going to make it look like an old tube TV. This will create more work for the theme developer to design for different resolutions (720p, 1080p, 4k, etc), but the results are worth it. How has this been achieved? Unlike the previous version of the app (and Emby for WMC), the new Emby Theater renders at resolution without any form of UI scaling. The first thing you'll notice when playing with the new app is just how much crisper it is. Note: Although the app supports touch input, it does not currently have any mobile designs, therefore it is not ideal for small screens. We think the best way is a remote, but if you'd like to scroll with the mouse or swipe with your finger, that works great too. We want this app to work well however you'd like to use it. We've put a lot of effort into all three input mechanisms. Pretty soon we'll have additional announcements on how you can build skins with HTML, and we can't wait to unveil that.ĭesigned for 10ft, but Works Great With a Mouse and Touch Input To release the app on other platforms such as Linux, Mac or Android, we would follow the same process and provide you with the best audio and video players that the platforms have to offer. With HTML and JavaScript as the basis, the possibilities are going to be endless. Then we replaced the web audio and video player with a player built specifically for Windows (mentioned above). To run this app on Windows, we've utilized Chromium, Electron, and NodeJS. For the nerds out there, that means WebAnimations, WebComponents, Service Workers, Polymer, and on and on. This has been built purely with modern features that bring a level of performance that wasn't even possible a year ago at this time. The interface for this app has been built with HTML, but this is nothing like the web apps you're accustomed to. So what's different about this new app? Read on! Make no mistake, this is not a Smart TV app ported to the HTPC, this is a new app designed to support all the bells and whistles you've come to expect. It is my belief that Web API's have evolved to the point where they are now truly the best option, and that led to another fresh start building the app from the ground up. Then in early 2015, I began scheming about the idea of a full-featured HTPC app built with HTML. We then began an overhaul built with C# and WPF, and by overhaul, we mean a re-write from the ground up. You might be wondering what took you guys so long? This is essentially our third major design of the app. This app has been truly a massive team effort. Andrew Van Til from Missing Remote has been helping us and we can't thank him enough. ![]() ![]() The app retains the same great Direct Show audio and video player that you're accustomed to, including all of it's bells and whistles with Madvr and other perks. On Windows, the Same Great Video Player in a Brand New App This app has been a long journey and we're finally pleased to announce availability for Emby Premiere subscribers.
