The new Infobar looks very good

Could you separate that still, that the Infobar is displayed alone and the description as well?
Maybe by two times OK ?
And maybe that the infobar is displayed when zapping the channels. As before.

And I would like it better if the TV logo is displayed under the channel number.

Next up support for Emby is great.
Multiple version selection in Emby is also great, but when I select a version it asks again then it plays. I'll do a debuglog if you want.
Still testing but looking good.

Opacity initial findings:

1) Skip FW/BW in PVR mode Live TV doesn't show infobar (also no other info on OSD during skip FW/BW) with skip steps like 10s, 30s etc. I have no visual clue now during skip FW/BW, what MrMC does for the skip time steps.

2) Also missing info bar during channel zapping, to see directly what program is on that channel you land on and what channel name it has.

3) strm files: still problems with one provider (you both already have all the info needed in your mailboxes for some time). Those problems are not present in Kodi or Emby on my Xbox One and other devices using strm files.

4) Sort order bug MrMC, see this topic

Good to see that Emby got some TLC in this release, where we finally can use some extra nodes in MrMC with Emby libraries that is working in all my Emby libraries (which it didn't do before), like genres which I missed the most, so thanks for that

I agree with Montoya.

Another small improvement ... if I select a channel from the channel list with OK, the list could hide at the moment and for that the infobar for x seconds are faded in.
Otherwise must be confirmed twice with OK so that the channel list is hidden.

How you playing the movie to trigger the version selector? Home? Movie List?

I did confirm that Atmos is now working for those new files.

From the movie list.

What comes to my mind.... in early development of the Live thumbnail scrubber, MrMC decided to disable real time scrubbing of PVR recordings in PVR, due to problems with scrubbing TS files (pixelated thumbnails in scrubber).

When I now play my recordings directly from my SMB share, I see no problems anymore in current MrMC version with real time scrubbing of thumbnails for those same TS files.

Do other users also see this, that those problems are gone or do some still experience problems with real time scrubbing with thumbnail, of their TS recordings files, direct played from their recordings share.

If none experience problems anymore with scrubbing TS files, can MrMC devs enable back, Live scrubbing playing recordings in PVR ?

For Live TV, it is obvious, it stays off there.
