Actually they should've already encountered it. Yes.

Hi GrimReaper, Thanks for this detailed response! I should confess, this server cost me two jars of honey (I have bee hives) and the previous owner rolled it from our previous place of employ - it's an old dell T3600. The end user hasn't complained about any playback qualities - or at least hasn't told me. That transcode speeds been below 1.0 would mean eventually their end would pause and buffer? To disable 4k transcode - is that the bottom option on the transcode page? "Max transcoding resolution" -> drop down box, select below 4k, i.e. 1080p? Thanks a million

Pipeline. Your CPU is struggling as decoding is done in software since it surpasses your GPU capabilities: Encoding is being hardware acelerated: Resulting in SW+HW (decoding+encoding) combo plan : Which in turn results in transcoding speeds 0.551x to 0.946x - in other words, your system doesn't have enough muscle to carry such process. You should either disable 4K/high bitrate files transcoding altogether or upgrade your hardware.

Here is the log files for the same user playing that same movie. CPU use was quite high, even got the fans excited. Thanks for looking at these, I can't understand anything in them. What are you looking for specifically? I also looked for the diagnostics plugin, but can't see it in the plugin page list. Do I need to manually install it? ffmpeg-transcode-6395477b-5775-47ac-951c-28b737485171_1.txt embyserver (1).txt ffmpeg-transcode-e94201b4-70e3-4840-98a6-758062a481e6_1.txt

CSS is a possibility but i don't think it will work in the apps when they support the banner.

see this: With different timezones - i actually want you to tell me the time at your end when the skip intro button was seen and which episode it was. So info on button not showing and button showing. times, app name/version, episode number. I can see from the log you provided that at your time 17:32:28 on the 16th the server had the intro markers available for the 8 episodes. So were the markers not showing after this ? which client app ? what time? and you menioned that you got a skip intro button - was that the same client app and episode and what time? After 17:32:28 on the 16th March, a fresh launch of an emby client app should get the information about the intro markers.

OK - thanks. Have you read the multiple routers / Double NAT section mentioned in the checklist I gave a link to ? I would like to know if the information is easy to follow and whether i need to do some tweaking I will be happy to go through the steps for establishing if there is a double nat and how to get round it, but would like first to know if the documentation provided is good enough for users to follow

Just tested it with Pangolin/Traefik. It's sufficient to forbid /web/* path when using a reverse proxy. Android App just uses /emby/* path and still works after setting up the rule. Not tested with the old AndroidTV, Theater or other apps. But if they do use /emby/* like the Android App, then yes, web access can be disabled via Reverse Proxy. If one platform does not, you're locking the user out and a more granular solution like user-agent filtering mentioned by speechles would need to be used. That said: Imo it's not worth the work you put into it. Just disable admin login from outside LAN in settings. Perhaps you have a user who just wants to watch a movie on the Laptop because kids or wife are occupying the TV sometime in the future. Is your point the whole Emby web frontend or just the Admin dashboard @dcook?

The issue there has been was that the HW wasn't being used when expected. If you have the diagnostics plugin, look at the user session to see what's actually happening. Audio transcoding has no HW support as it's really trivial compared with video - just don't think about it (as a load). Paul

I refer to my servers and clients by name, not by IP address of either type. Windows does what it chooses, which is mostly, but not always, IPv6, as it happens. As for why some people running Emby have trouble with IPv6, I have no idea (nor any way to distinguish whether it's an Emby-specific matter or not). I have never had an issue to investigate, and I imagine it will need fairly intensive hands-on debugging which will only happen when the kind of person who's inclined to do it comes up against the problem.

What files are in the folder?

@LukeI just discovered the new poster view update on the home screen. Emby has reached a whole new level of perfection. No need Plex anymore. THANK YOU! Do you think it would also be possible to choose the image (poster view or thumbnail) when the spoiler option is enabled? Because in poster view, it’s the thumbnail that’s displayed on the home screen.

Ah, Ok, that was my mistake, I haven't realized that you could combine custom text and placeholders - no need to add anything, thanks. No worries, I'll just CSS it.

Hi and Thanks again. I apologize if it seemed I was not acknowledging the main issue resolution. I appreciate the work and can validate that turning it of makes all the difference while this secondary issue exists. I am happy that you can see the weirdness in the General Title field. If you need me to test anything, let me know. We all appreciate the continued support of this plugin.

I didn't add those on purpose so people can customize it them self and/or for multi languages. I could ofc. add some placeholders as you suggest that people can remove if they want. I don't think it is possible to center the banner text.

As I continue testing this great plugin, I've noticed that some titles in my mdblist playlists aren't being recognized or matched in Emby... I don't understand why; I can't see anything in the logs, and the movie IDs are the same (IMDb and TMDB IDs). For example, the movie *Douce* (1943) (https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/63771-douce) is listed in my list on mdblist but never in Emby? And the more I check the matches, the more I realize there are unmatched items here and there. Any idea why?

It isn't syncing the watch progress with emby and kodi and I found the logs. I don't want to upload them in case it leaks my public ip. It says kodi is connected to emby but the database is read only Opening sqlite connection ... isReadOnly: True

Thanks for your input. I tried with the extra parameter and still no success. As you can see in my own thread that I linked, the device is passed through fine as shown by the hardware detection log. Emby is just not using it. In my desperation I even spun up the linuxserver image, with the same result. As it is also working fine for any other container, this has to be an emby specific issue. Maybe someone from emby needs to chime in, @Lukemaybe?

Hello il would like to know when the futur stable version of emby for Android device Will Come ? Thanks

Happens to everyone, I also have my "moments" every now and then, literal .

Ohh wow How did I mis that.

Post ffmpeg log for that session. How to Report a Problem

Hi Paul; I assumed audio because the emby dashboard indicated the video transcode was done by hardware, and I thought ffmpeg was audio only? I will attempt to disable tone mapping and see the effects, however the emby tone mapping page states it's on the Nvidia CUDA?

Hello, Currently, I cannot set the default theme song volume for all user's Emby Web settings. Theme songs often play too loud and I would like them to be at half volume by default, while retaining the option for users to change settings on their own and turn the volume back up. I would rather disable the theme songs if I cannot control a new user's first time experience, but currently I can only disable the theme songs for my own web client. Ideally, an "Web Settings" tab would be added to the Emby Server settings to set the default global settings. Thank you!!! Jared
