tboggie 0 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Hi All, Emby server Version 3.0.5675.1 is installed on a Win8 VM - unRAID server. Client is Kodi HTPC with Emby. I recently set up my emby server and I am now planning to configure the path substitution i.e. when playing media files at home, I want to stream the media directly to the clients, instead of transcoding. I tried to set it up (see below) and I noticed it is still transcoding instead of playing directly. Any suggestions on how I can fix this would be much appreciated.

ebr 14904 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 You didn't substitute anything. Both sides are the same. How are your library locations defined? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidman 589 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 If the paths to your media are already UNC you should not need to use path substitution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelblue05 4130 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) You shouldn't need to do that. Your path are UNC already, the add-on will automatically converts them to smb:// client side. Edited September 3, 2015 by Angelblue05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
