Emby is a personal media server, which has clients for many platforms. It is used to organize personal home media, as well as play back on other devices. There are a large amount of channels that are supported by the community, and can even be used with PVR and Tuner cards to provide TV streaming remotely.

## Installation

Install the emby-server package.

## Usage

Enable and start `emby-server.service`.

Access Emby through the browser by navigating to http://localhost:8096/

Emby runs under the user and user group `emby`. To provide Emby access to your media library, either add user emby to the group that owns your files:

    sudo gpasswd -a emby audio

or change their owner to user emby.
