I have a truenas server 25.10.2.1 - Goldeye running emby 4.9.4.1 V 1.4.2 premiere. I have not changed permissions or users on the system since creating it. Everything has worked fine until about 2 weeks past. Now any new items added do not show up in the database. I doubled checked permissions on the truenas to make sure nothing changed. I have errors in the server log saying access denied. I have a Windows 11 system running emby server Version 4.10.0.6 beta and it looks at exactly the same files on the truenas through smb shares. It has no issues adding new media to the database and does not have access denied errors in the server log. I have the server logs available but I'm including a screen shot of one of the errors below. Your help is appreciated Thanks 2026-04-07 11:02:13.305 Error BaseItem: Error validating children for The Absent Minded Professor 1961 1080p 323282 /mnt/sas_22tb_each/22tb_pre_1970/The Absent Minded Professor 1961 1080p *** Error Report *** Version: 4.9.4.1 Command line: /system/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /config -ffdetect /bin/ffdetect -ffmpeg /bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /bin/ffprobe -restartexitcode 3 Operating system: Linux version 6.12.33-production+truenas (root@tnsbuilds02) (gcc (Debian 12.2.0-14+deb12u1) 12.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.40) #1 SMP PREE OS/Process: x64/x64 Framework: .NET 8.0.22 Runtime: system/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Data path: /config Application path: /system System.UnauthorizedAccessException: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '/mnt/sas_22tb_each/22tb_pre_1970/The Absent Minded Professor 1961 1080p' is denied. ---> System.IO.IOException: Permission denied --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.Init() at System.IO.DirectoryInfo.InternalEnumerateInfos(String path, String searchPattern, SearchTarget searchTarget, EnumerationOptions options) at Emby.Server.Implementations.IO.ManagedFileSystem.EnumerateFileSystemInfos(DirectoryInfo dir, Boolean recursive) at Emby.Server.Implementations.IO.ManagedFileSystem.GetFileSystemEntries(String path, Boolean recursive, FileSystemCredentials credentials) at MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.BaseItem.ValidateChildrenInternal(IProgress`1 progress, CancellationToken cancellationToken, Boolean recursive, Boolean refreshChildMetadata, BaseItem[] collectionFolders, LibraryOptions libraryOptions, Dictionary`2 newItemIds, MetadataRefreshOptions refreshOptions, IDirectoryService directoryService) at MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.BaseItem.ValidateSubFolders(BaseItem[] children, BaseItem[] collectionFolders, LibraryOptions libraryOptions, Dictionary`2 newItemIds, IDirectoryService directoryService, IProgress`1 progress, CancellationToken cancellationToken) Source: System.Private.CoreLib TargetSite: Void Init() InnerException: System.IO.IOException: Permission denied Source: TargetSite:

Good Luck @sergiovassarithis weekend we reached the amazing number of 6 years waiting for this feature ... 6 YEARS !!!!!!

Olvidé mencionar que no tengo Emby Premiere, por eso no cambia. En esta captura de pantalla, cuando abro cualquiera de esos menús desplegables, aparece un fondo que no coincide con el tema. Sería fantástico si se pudiera cambiar. He adjuntado la captura de pantalla. Y estos íconos en la esquina superior derecha donde están las configuraciones, ¿cómo puedo cambiarlos al mismo color dorado u otro color? ¿Cómo puedo aumentar el tamaño de fuente del texto en la configuración? ¡Gracias, el tema se ve genial!

There is a mention in tvdb that an API exists that has this feature. So, perhaps it's no longer a matter of waiting for tvdb to release the compatible API, as it already exists. I don't know, I find myself here asking people I don't know in a forum for a feature that would put my SpongeBob SquarePants series in the correct order. Philosophically, this is kind of sad and pathetic. Developer, please implement this functionality so we can get on with our lives. Thank you.

There's no Media on OneDrive. it's all stored on a seperate physical drive. (D:\Videos\ in fact). Nothing was ever pointed to the C Drive. until this morning when Emby was trying to create and populate the "Home videos and Photos" library. These are the libraries now in place but nothing is in the libraries in Emby even though still in the sub-directories on D.

Does anyone know if there's an option to change the metadata to "Emby, don't get the data from tvdb, but from this other place," so the order would be correct or at least better? Because in the case of SpongeBob SquarePants, the only way to get it correct is Absolute Order.

Here you can see another exemple: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/spongebob-squarepants#seasons PS. Four years and still no solution? Oh my... Obviously I don't understand this, but is it really that difficult to implement?

Hey thanks for your post. Issues being disabled on Github was an oversight, it's turned on now. That being said, I'll take a look at improving the layout on smaller screens.

Cheers!

Hi, there's already an open request for this or something functionally equivalent. Please join in and contribute to the existing discussion at:

Spun it up to test and it was a quick and straight forward process, thank you. Ran into a minor frontend bug, though. Issues seem to be disabled on the repo, so I'll share here. As shown in the screenshot, the header text and progress dots are cut off. This was captured on a Windows 11 machine with Chrome. Header and dots show perfectly in full screen.

You'll have to install it onyour old Windows system, do a backup, copy it across, then try the restore.

Thanks @CBers. I've installed it, set up the backup folder path but I have no backups to restore from. The same folder path on the other backup & restore plugin shows the existing backups. Maybe the backups are not compatible between the two plugins?

In the client, for series, we have the options Aired Order, Absolute Order, and DVD Order. It works 99% of the time. However, in SpongeBob SquarePants (1999), on the tvdb website, there are also Joined Order and Streaming Order. There they say "Usable as 'Alternate Order' in API-connected systems". In Emby, I don't have these two other options, causing the order to be incorrect. Could you please add these options to the metadata? Here you can see what I'm talking about: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/spongebob-squarepants#seasons Thank You.

Thank you, I did not know that. should have a fix out in a few

Where do I get the Legacy Backup & Restore plugin from? I can't find it in the plugins catalog.

Color changes using variables in css. rgb does not work, as expected, with var. Either use Hex colors codes #47ed43, or use rgba instead. :root { --color: 240, 240, 240; --alpha: 0.8; } #element { background-color: rgba(var(--color), var(--alpha)); } See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40010597/how-do-i-apply-opacity-to-a-css-color-variable

LibreELEC is playing smoothly with Emby for Kodi set up but I would very much prefer a native Emby Theater experience.

I am guessing that perhaps a directory above onedrive is used as a registered library. Perhaps Emby looks through all subdirectories and sees onedrive, so when a scan all libraries is run, it starts to find your other media.

Of interest: IT file definition: https://docs.fileformat.com/audio/it/

That's the normal Backup & Restore plugin, not the Legacy Backup & Restore plugin. Legacy Backup & Restore plugin Backup and Restore plugin Look the same, but different.

I have taken a pass at updating the german, but feel free to update as you see fit. File is attached, it is thousands of lines of translation. translation.json

Salut Le problème ne se pose qu'avec ce lecteur sur ta shield ? Si j'ai bien compris ton serveur syno et ta shield sont dans le même réseau ? Il faudrait regarder ce que disent les logs du serveur Emby aussi. Vincèn
