Music Library not working

[T800 9]

I had Kodi and Emby addon on my last HTPC and it worked fine. On my new one there's no music. It's enabled and I've tried resetting the database but nothing changes.

 

Can anyone tell me why or where I should start looking, as in which logs and where?

 

Thanks

I also had this problem short time ago.

 

Do you use samba? If so, do the following:

 

• check if you built the path substitution with the ip instead of the dns-hostname in the emby server webui (dns path substitutions seem to work with windows only)
• configure the "network credentials" under "playback" in the emby addon settings
• configure  "playback mode = Addon(Default)" under "sync options" in the emby addon settings
• "reset the local kodi database" under "advanced" in the emby addon settings

 

That worked for me. It was a way of try-and-error to get it to work. Which kind of backend- and frontend-os do you use?

 

Here I wrote about problems with libreelec against windows 10:

Strangely, Kodi started to scan the music last night while we were watching something and now it works! Weird!
