I made the switch from Plex to Emby and I doubt I'll go back. Emby is easy to customize, user friendly, and has yet to crash on me. The only issue I've had was configuring the remote access for devices outside my network. After doing some research and making tweaks to my router and firewall I've gotten it to work. Since then my server has been working like a dream. All in all I've been very pleased with the media server and would recommend it to anyone. 9/10

So the app has gotten much better over time, but now the only thing that's not working 100% is casting music. I have a chromecast music and I'm trying to use emby on my phone to control my music from my server to the chromecast at home and the app is buggy. Sometimes the gui controls disappear and all that shows is the album art, or if I want to switch from an album to shuffling all songs I have to restart the app to work right. So close to being perfect.

Would love to give you guys 5 stars because I love Emby! But the "edit images" feature only allows you to delete the thumbnail and make it black. It doesn't allow you to change the image like it does on my PC version. If you guys fix this I will change my review to 5 stars and tell you what I love about this app. Thanks! Other than that, Emby rocks! I love it!
