[Script request]: Emby Update Script fix for Beta

[ricostuart]

Application Name

Emby Server

Website

Description

The current script only updates Emby to the latest stable release even if the current version installed is actually a beta (with a higher version number). I have edited the script to include version number request as well as having an option to update to the latest beta. Could you add this to the official script?

Due Diligence

• I have searched existing scripts and found no duplicates.
• I have searched existing discussions and found no duplicate requests.

I don't get the point of this?

LATEST=$(curl -fsSL https://api.github.com/repos/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/latest | grep '"tag_name":' | cut -d'"' -f4)
echo $LATEST
4.8.11.0

The latest stable is 4.8.11. Latest beta is 4.9.1.1-beta
The script correctly install the latest stable release. Its also the stable version you can download from the website:

We don't install betas, only stable releases

The script I made gives the choice when updating to use stable or beta release. As I use the beta (as do many others), you can't downgrade easily due to incompatibility with the database. Thought it be useful for others like me who do use beta.

No, we will never install betas. If the user want to use beta releases, he should install it manually

We only serve stable releases.

Maybe you take a look at the emby-install.sh and modify the Script for yourself (or deploy an Debian/Ubuntu LXC and enter Line per Line with Beta Release)
