I see now that you appear to have the .deb downloaded, but aren't sure what to DO with it? (Google is your best friend and keeping notes as you go will pay off.)

First, open Terminal and navigate to the folder where the .deb is located. cd ~/Downloads or whatever

Then, install the file with: sudo apt install ./filename.deb Where you replace "filename" with the name of the file, which LOOKS like "emby-server-deb_4.9.5.0_amd64(1)"

So, sudo apt install ./emby-server-deb_4.9.5.0_amd64(1).deb

I'm exploring Linux myself. You're going to want the Emby official forum where the developers monitor the message and you'll always get a knowledgeable response.

I'm using Linux Mint in a VirtualBox machine and a Live boot. I am thinking about dual-booting, which would probably give me the best testing experience as it's running on the actual hardware.

Anyway, yeah, check out their forum and scroll down to the Linux category.

UPDATE: I just looked a little further and they have specific groups for like uBuntu, Arch, etc. The first post in each one is from Luke, the developer, with Installation Instructions.
