App is improved. I have one request. When I go to metadata manager and select view, then missing episodes. I get a list of all the episodes, which is great, but I can't close the side menu even if I click on the 3 lines on the right side, which just opens another side menu. Please check this and allow us to fold / hide the side menu. I have screenshot but not possible to upload here. Also please make the cover or full choice permanently selected. I don't want to select it for every episode.

Years ago Emby was a pretty solid media server. They've really destroyed a lot though and have been moving backwards for the last couple of years. Without even getting into the server issues, this new "unified" Android app that they've been trying to push on people is the final nail in the coffin. Its mobile-first approach leaves big screen users behind, and the whole thing just feels jittery and poorly made when navigating on Android TV. It's a huge step backwards and only getting worse.

Here's a new wrinkle! I stopped playback, CLOSED THE APP, and it started playing 10 seconds later. I had to go kill it via app info because it wasn't running, it was just playing back. Folks, this has been a problem for months at least. Please fix it. All settings I can find wrt auto play were shut off long ago.
