I actually trialled emby for a bit but ultimately decided to go back to plex, partly because there's many more devices out there with native plex apps than there are for emby.
Yeah Plex has a lot of native apps, but for me those all pale in comparison to using Kodi. Emby nailed the kodi integration part such that you have a native library even outside the LAN. There's a plex thread now where they are driving the changes back into a Plex add-on, so something good is in the works. Plex is still behind IMO regarding disc art, trailers, actors, quick sync transcoding. Trailers and actors are available through Plex pass I think, not sure how that filters down to clients. QS may arrive around the same time for both, but Emby is already doing something with it and have it enabled in their beta
