Hi everyone, I've recently updated my Emby Server to beta version 4.10.0.16 (running on a Western Digital My Cloud Pro PR4100 NAS), and I'm experiencing a systematic crash of the CoverArt plugin during the server startup sequence. Every single CoverArt enhancer (Album, Banner, Movie, etc.) fails to initialize, throwing a System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'source') related to get_CoverArtImageProcessor(). Here is the relevant part of my log: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'source') at System.Linq.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentNullException(ExceptionArgument argument) ... at CoverArt.ServerEntryPoint.get_CoverArtImageProcessor() It seems like a compatibility issue with the internal changes or the .NET 8 environment of this specific 4.10.0.16 build. Is there a known workaround or a pending update to fix this image processor initialization? Thanks in advance for your help!

I would first try updating to the latest Apple TV app which is 2.0.6

Maybe they want to test the fix in the beta channel before blindly pushing a hotfix to stable? That is the purpose of beta testing is it not?

They are, yes, but when you go in it's just a thumbnail of what's currently on. I'd like it in the actual guide so you can see what's upcoming.

The post is not AI generated - I know he is working with these things and his questions are very legitimate. He just - then - quoted what an AI model thinks about it, and the one thing I would argue is that this specific model is not among the brightest candles on the tree..

I guess that would be better than what we have now but I do think just the logo with no letters would be better. Similar to Spotify and all other Apple apps

Kinda pointless to argue with an AI-generated Post?

@dcatithis is great, I'll keep testing this and see how things go. Will you open source it?

Emby? @Luke? Could you please address this? You have released a beta to block this vulnerability, but are you going to force us to run a beta version on our primary instance so we don’t get hacked? Everybody says run the beta at your own risk; it may have bugs… I see this CVE is most risky for people who download torrents, but if left unaddressed, it could make its way into IPTV or OTA stuff. Or is the stable version immune to this?

I can report this issue seems to be resolved now with 4.10.0.16. I am not seeing empty genres anymore.

All correct what @Mahinepua said! Thanks

There hasn't been an Android release since Aug 20, 2024.

@ginjaninja Holy cow - how can I get this incredible bunch of nonsense out of your head...? Should I dissect all the false statements or start fresh - I'm not sure. Almost every sentence is wrong. First of all, terms disambiguation - and why there are so many different terms: GenericEdit This provides the definition of an editable component which gets presented on some surface in an interactive way (we have cases where GenericEdit is used all alone, without GenericUI - for example in the Win,Xbox and Linux apps) GenericUI Provides the framing around a GenericEdit component as a page, dialog or wizard and the APIs for communicating with the server (and back) (we have built-in cases where GenericUI is used but without PluginUI) PluginUI Is a layer - or primarily a set of base classes intended to make it easy to use GenericUI + GenericEdit from a plugin Here are some general points which are crucial to understand: GenericEdit/UI is agnostic of UI platform and technology It has nothing to do with HTML or DOM in the first place. It's possible (for us) at any time, to to create a client-side implementation for a different technology, like for example Android or iOS native UI. At some point, I had started an implementation for WinForms (just for fun - I didn't get very far due to time constraints) - thats absolutely doable without any changes on the side of plugin developers State State is global. Each plugin UI view has exactly one state: The values at the server Refresh Is up to you. You can raise the UI view change event from the server and then, all clients currently viewing that UI view will see the updated view. Sometimes, this is desired and sometimes not: for example, when the user is supposed to set multiple parameters and finally save them via button click. In that case, it can happen that two clients are showing different values - when at least one of them hasn't submitted their pending changes You can decide whether you either want to have a "last one wins" behavior, or send a changed event when one client submits an update. This will throw away potential changes which somebody else (or the same user) might have made - but not submitted For the issues you mentioned: Being returned to the top of the page when clicking on checkbox in a dxgrid. Rows in genericitemlist members bouncing in and out of view ...we'd need to look at the specific cases.

On a dark theme that background will mostly blend into the app background Without spending too much time on it, applying this dark color will almost blur the edges - somewhat similar to the AppleTV logo As long as you are happy with that

Gracias por responder.Ya escribi a ese correo,pero no he tenido respuesta.

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred: How to Report a Problem Thanks!

I am trying to upload foto to my profile (for the 1st time). Result: Emby shows the spinner "forever" and the foto is not uploaded Browser network log is clear from errors. Server log has no related log entries for "Upload" action. The foto is attached. Many thanks for any hint! P.S. Emby server v4.9.5.0 (Linux)

@crusher11 Apologies for replying late. Could you please do this: Start the app (if not running) Go to Settings > About > Log Files tab Toggle "Enable debug logging" on Close the app Wait 5s Start the app Play something which doesn't play <= only once please Stop playback Go to Settings > About > Log Files tab Click on EmbyClient.txt - it opens in Notepad - and "Save as" to some location you remember Repeat this for the most recent mpv-2026*****.txt file Post here or PM them to me. Thank you very much and sorry for the disruption.

Yes that did the trick. With the delay present, playback will start smoothly at the correct time. The only issue i am experiencing now is, when it switches to a different episode. It will leave to the previous screen and immediately go back trying to play the next item. Sometimes it will work and sometimes it will fail, like in the recording above. Any idea if that is fixable? Maybe adding the delay between episodes could help here too?

HI, it is usually pretty quick. Please email billingsupport@emby.media if you have any more questions related to your payment. Thanks.

I would say keep it as is but switch the background to match iOS.

I think it would look much better if the background had a consistent Apple design.

Buenas tardes.Ya pague por el servicio premium.Estoy a la espera de la Emby Premiere key.Cuanto se demora para que la manden?

Thanks. I have attached the full Emby Server log from the time I reproduced the issue. The affected file is: The Rookie - S8, Ep12 - Spionagespiele During the test, the native Emby Apple TV app was playing this file. The log shows: Client: Emby for Apple TV 2.0.3 (2) Emby Server version: 4.9.5.0 Device: Apple TV Playback item: The Rookie - S8, Ep12 - Spionagespiele Playback method reported by Playback Reporting: DirectStream The app is requesting the file as original.mkv Subtitles were disabled: SubtitleStreamIndex=-1 The request appears to use libmpv I do not see an ffmpeg transcoding log generated for this playback For comparison, I also tested the exact same episode on the same Apple TV using Infuse, and it plays smoothly there. Infuse also accesses the file directly and does not have the micro-stutter issue. So the current comparison is: Native Emby Apple TV app, 25 FPS content: micro-stutters Infuse on the same Apple TV, same file, same server: smooth Native Emby Apple TV app, 23.976 FPS content: smooth This seems to point to an issue specific to 25 FPS playback in the native Emby Apple TV app, rather than a server, file, network, or transcoding issue. Please let me know if you need anything else, such as a MediaInfo output for the affected file or a short sample clip. embyserver.txt
