Hi, yes it does take this long unfortunately.

I would try adding a new movie and see how that compares.

Hi there, where are you looking for it? What exactly did you scan?

Hi, we’ll take a look at it. Thanks.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hi, I haven’t heard of users paying for audio db. I think most should be about to use it for free. But yes, audio db and fanart both depend on music brains ids. The providers you enable and prioritize are your preference based on your media and what they have on their website .

Thanks for all the help, but nothing seemed to work so I just tried downloading another video and the subtitles were baked into the video and that worked. There was no separate SRT and they weren't embedded.

Thanks for the tip on getting these subtitles. But the problem is that originally I had the separate SRT subtitle file and it wasn't showing them in the Roku Emby app, only the web Emby app.

Hi again @Lukeso does this typically take Samsung a month of Sundays to update an app? It has literally been an age and yet zero sign of the app showing up in the app store in NZ. Surely there are other folk with 2022 TV's that dont want to sideload the app every month to be able to view simple trailers? Any clue as to why it's taking Samsung so long please?

Yes, they show up on the Emby web app, also when I play them with VLC or the old media player classic.

I installed emby server using the universal installer in a clean install of ubuntu 24.04 and the service doesn't start. It says: emby-server[14486]: /opt/emby-server/bin/emby-server: 22: exec: /opt/emby-server/system/EmbyServer: Permission denied Running ls -l on the file I get: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 78872 Aug 21 2017 /opt/emby-server/system/EmbyServer I tried both the beta and stable options with the same results. What should I do?

Iso files should work in addon mode, yes. When you removed it, you need to trigger a repair sync in the plugin. "/Downloads/data/media/movies/movie name(year)/file.iso" I assume the the path your Emby server accesses the file, and is not available on Kodi. You need to modify the path substitution on Emby server for that library and point it to the locaction Kodi can access it too. If you use a smb share, you need too map in in Kodi's filebrowser too. Native file access is not that easy to set-up.

Bump?

Yes I agree, this was just a fix I found. I've mentioned this to the developers and they said they should be able to update the app to fix this. It was from this thread:

Followed up with a couple users and some do, some don't where the subtitles just don't show up at all.

Which is notoriously weak (they've just added HEVC support recently, like a millenia after competition did) for media consumption compared to some other browsers . Try MS Edge or Thorium.

Hmmm... strange. I thought viewing through the web page would be easier and thought I should do that before I attempted to view on the TV but surprise! It works on my ONN/TV. I can view there but not on my computer. Of course I will be watching on the TV but I'd still be curious what went wrong and it would be nice to fix this.

UPDATE: once I installed the MusicBrainz plugin, the artwork and metadata started populating. So, I’m assuming that "TheAudioDb" and "FanArt.TV" are dependent on it. Question: 1. Do I still need to keep the paid monthly subscription for “TheAudioDb” or not? 2. Should I enable FanArt.TV within Emby for Music library and should it be primary or secondary?

im using Fire Fox EDIT: to see if you were right i tested it on brave and it worked just fine

They been taking a look at it. A long 5+ month look at it.

Hello jtgdemby, ** This is an auto reply ** Please wait for someone from staff support or our members to reply to you. It's recommended to provide more info, as it explain in this thread: Thank you. Emby Team

Fresh install of Emby on Arch Linux extra/emby-server 4.9.3.0-1 Library set up without complaints. I can view the library with posters and do everything except play. Anything I play gets the error: "Playback Error No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details." I do see errors in the log regarding ffmpeg. I have no need or desire to have anything transcoded by Emby, however the ffmpeg executable is present with execute permissions. I have it disabled in the settings (I think) so I would just like to know what setting I need to change so I don't have this error. I see the startup script does reference ffmpeg: exec dotnet /usr/lib/emby-server/EmbyServer.dll \ -programdata $PROGRAM_DATA \ -ffdetect $FFDETECT \ -ffmpeg $FFMPEG \ -ffprobe $FFPROBE \ -restartexitcode 3 If I modify that and remove the 3 -ff* lines, Emby does not work. All my movies have already been transcoded with ffmpeg as HEVC in an mkv container which is stated as supported, with Opus audio. Everything plays fine in mpv. Everything plays fine in a browser. Everything plays fine in VLC in my ONN(Chromecast), although I am not yet trying to use the ONN and just trying to play through the web interface for now. embyserver.txt

To me that sounds more like browser (GPU drivers) problem than Emby problem. Which browser you're using for playback?

Lets look at Star trek Strange new worlds, that show is full direct play, and is having issues, a show like the original star trek worked fine, because it could trans-code.

+1 Just wanted to say that I am also interested in this feature.
