Revision history [back]

I run an Emby server at my home that I use to watch my movies / tv shows while away from home - I have downloaded the Android app here which installs ok: https://emby.media/emby-for-android-mobile.html - this unsurprisingly worked perfectly on my old Android device but I can't get it to play anything with my Xperia X running Sailfish 3.

I think the problem is the app tries to use the native browser to play the videos? I'm not certain on that but when I use my main Brave Browser (Android APK) on Sailfish X, it works perfectly, when I attempt to use the same web app with the native Sailfish browser it won't playback any videos as there are no supporting stream types - this is the same error the app displays. I was hoping the upgrade to Sailfish 3 would solve it (and upgrade the browser so it would work in that) but it hasn't, I dont think this has anything to do with Android versions but I could be wrong.

Maybe someone has solved this though or can pinpoint the issue.
