OK, i finally figured out how to update emby without updating it at all i forced it to update to the latest version with this method for anyone else wanting to update emby on truenas scale. Follow these instructions to a t and it will update to the latest emby. go into the truenas scale dashboard go to apps Click on emby move over to the right side where it says emby and has edit and 3 dots click those 3 dots you will see convert to custom app and let it convert emby into a custom app and wait for the emby server to reload and start again.. Then click edit you will see the hyml for your emby app pop up scroll down to the line that says image you will see on this like the version of emby. change this version of emby to the new emby version available and scroll all the way to the bottom of this page when done and click save let it do it's thing and once done it will have updated your emby server to the latest version because it pulled the update that you forced and updated it. That is all you need to do and now you can do it every single time there's an update showing that you can't get because the one's in charge don't send updates out to us,

This is client based? https://emby.media/support/articles/Premiere-Limits.html

The first two would be the easiest because the server is the one enforcing the limit so it could do this without any involvement of the apps.

I can see 3 possible limit notifications: 1. Max Simultaneous video streams (system) 2. Max simultaneous video streams (users 3. Device limit We should also have guidance how to remediate these.

Hi - I had it happen again once the other day, but I can't replicate it. I turned on debugging until reboot, so hopefully it will catch something. I was pretty confident of the time.

Hello, I am trying to send Emby notifications to a webhook endpoint (n8n). The problem is: the Test button for the notification service works but actual notifications from real events do not seem to reach the webhook at all What I am trying to accomplish I want Emby to send real notification events to my webhook endpoint, for example authentication events and report notifications such as new media notifications. What happens When I click Test in the notification service configuration, Emby sends an HTTP POST to my webhook endpoint and gets HTTP 200 back. But when real events happen, Emby only logs: Debug Notifications: Sending notification to Emby Server User Notifications N8N: ... and then nothing is received by the webhook endpoint. What I expected I expected Emby to send an HTTP POST to the configured webhook endpoint for real events, just like it does during the test. What I already checked I tried to narrow this down as much as possible: Webhook test works In the Emby logs, testing the notification service produces a real outgoing HTTP request and a successful response: Info HttpClient: POST http://10.20.1.24:5678/webhook/... Info HttpClient: Http response 200 from http://10.20.1.24:5678/webhook/... after 139ms So the endpoint is reachable and the URL is correct. Real notifications appear to stop before the actual HTTP request For real events, the logs show lines like: Debug Notifications: Sending notification to Emby Server User Notifications N8N: martin Has Authenticated on Martins-NAS ... Debug Notifications: Sending notification to Emby Server User Notifications N8N: New Media Report Notification But I do not see a following HttpClient: POST ... line for those real events, and nothing arrives at the webhook endpoint. Debug logging is enabled I enabled debug mode and reproduced the problem again. I have enabled almost all notification options without a limit on user or library: Any Any help is appreciated. embyserver.txt

This is not a bad idea but will require a fair amount of work because the apps all handle this locally. So something would have to be built to notify the server of these situations and all apps would need to be updated.

Hello, I figured it out by editing the default ports in the config/system.xml file and restarting server. Thought I had tried that already but was unsuccessful, hence the post. Maybe I didn't do it right the first time, dunno. Thanks tho

That would be determined by the exact message they received. What was that?

Please provide the ffmpeg log.

I've had some family tell me they've had warnings about streaming limits being reached. I'm not sure why, since I check and they are well below any threshold or limit. It would be great to have some alerting or notification to know when that is happening or how to troubleshoot it/remediate it. Is it a user limit? system limit? Device limit?

I just rebuilt me database, and found that for some reason, it was adding a collections folder. I stopped it and removed the option from the movies library. After scanning was complete, collections folder remained. I followed directions and deleted the items in the collections folder, the collections folder remained. I followed directions further "you must delete all individual collections within the library, then run a library scan to remove the library shell" but this option is unavailable. I went further and went to "C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\data\collections" and this item does not exist. I can not find any further info as to next step. Can someone please help.

Hello, I believe that was set some time ago, before I lost access, that is. I've had this running for several years until re-creating a new container.

This sometimes happens when providers are using some sort of geo-IP or user agent block, or you’ve not entered the right port details etc. Make sure you’re if you’re using a proxy on your mobile app that you’re using the same one where your installation is.

I don’t have the skills to dissect your logs but it’s pretty much always the provider using some non-standard method for keeping the connection alive. I would suggest using a dedicated app that’s been designed to handle the peculiarities. The other alternative would be to proxy the stream somehow.

ACME .Net libraries and tools are available for developers to build or integrate ACME clients. A feature built into Emby to request, deploy and renew TLS certs could solve a lot of headaches. Granted it could create some too though overall I would say it lands on the positive side.

Thanks! And yeah, last night I was working on the typography a lot, still lots to do in that area. some areas like the legends were never updated. I'll certainly look at your CSS. Still fighting w/ overriding every user theme option selected but slowly getting there. Sometimes I wonder if the juice is worth the squeeze there. It's getting frustrating at moments.

Well, it's a Windows-only software and you can configure it yourself.

Pretty niche yes, but could be nice to signify episodes that are finales and make their apperance slightly different, i.e. [ finale ] tag. I support this.

I'd be much more interested in seeing "Certify the Web" being implemented as it's a replacement for certbot (and I think also offer this feature?)

Not sure if this is purely coming from the streaming links so thought I would ask the question and also see if there's any strategies. I stream sports sites using m3u links. When I hit play it works fine on all of my systems: Web, FireTv etc. It will work fine for a random # of minutes and freeze. I just have to hit the back button and play again, etc. I see in the logs an exit command but I don't know where that's coming from. I've attached 3 samples. I've set my system to ensure auto to ensure direct stream and lowered it below the speed (5M/s) to ensure transcoding. 1) Is the Exit coming from the provider? 2) If yes to the above, are there any strategies available to overcome them? It would be nice if the app can dynamically recreate the play action and just start streaming over again but that may be a major lift. ffmpeg-transcode-e66ad26b-cea3-46d5-a8b7-317094a58a09_1.txt ffmpeg-directstream-147f25e2-e24d-4937-9bc4-feecae41cbad_1.txt ffmpeg-directstream-7dab648f-a74c-4e27-91cf-291eacb1ba65_1.txt

@LukeI've managed to reproduce this reasonbly reliably. 1. Use the Emby Android app 2. Disconnected from Wi-Fi (being on cellular is absolutely vital) 3. Start a playlist, keep the screen on or off, doesn't matter 4. After 2 songs or about 5 minutes the playback will stop either by switching to the third song which will timeout or during buffering (less likely)

TMM ? What is it ?
