I'm going to guess bitrate settings, and you disabled allow video transcoding. Without a concrete example, and just perusing some TranscodeReasons that's my guess.

And, at what time within that log, did that happen?

Hi, we are looking into this. Thanks.

Hi, yes I agree this would make sense. Thanks.

Hi there, how are your files named and organized?

Hi, I don't have an ETA yet but it is something that we'd like to add. Thanks.

That is not the same location you have told Emby server where your files are. How did you configure your libraries? EDIT: Depending on how you configured the libraries, the error may be indicating an error with that particular partition, but need to see the configuration. EDIT2: Right it's in your log file. Yea you need to be looking at /mnt/wwn-0x5000c500e90d708c-part2 because that's what you set up. I don't know why you would have done it this way, using a wwn in the wrong place...

I think we should probably change it, but then we'll have to deal with those that might be impacted by the change. I was just looking for you to confirm that it's really a change that is required on both sides, not just one. emby should stop writing the id node, but your other software should also stop reading it.

What is even worse is that if you create a single music playlist, you can no longer shuffle all your songs so you can add tracks to it as you listen. Because the moment you create a single playlist, your songs tab vanishes so you can't shuffle them anymore. So as I've mentioned, my media server can't shuffle my music. Unless I delete all my playlists. Until we get the ability to customize the tabs, I really think we need to ditch something other than the Songs tab. Folders or Album Artists would be two good choices in the interim. To have a media server that can't shuffle music is a failure of basic functionality.

Yea unless you follow naming conventions strictly, then I would suggest three separate libraries for those folders rather than one combined library. Actually I would suggest that anyway.

What exactly is happening?

A small update to the Abs2Emby plugin that makes the series name/sequence handling more flexible. Background Emby doesn't have a dedicated field for audiobook or book series — no SeriesName, no SeriesNumber on Book or MusicAlbum entities the way TV shows have seasons and episodes. So the plugin's approach has been a workaround: append the series info directly to the item's title (e.g. "The Fellowship of the Ring - The Lord of the Rings #1") and set IndexNumber from the ABS sequence field. That works, but it's not for everyone. Some people already name their files with series info baked in. Some prefer a clean title list. Others just don't want the sequence number set at all. What's new Two new config toggles in Dashboard → Plugins → ABS Import → Settings (both default true, so existing users see no change): ABS_Import.dll

Movie Naming read this !! Remember ( Year ) in your naming, and TmdbId for good measure. I name the folders like this The Devil Wears Prada (2006) {TmdbId-350} The Devil Wears Prada 2 (2026) {TmdbId-1314481}

As soon as my daughter starts to play a movie or TV show it will kick the message No compatible streams.

Hello MaximusLT, ** 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

I recently added both of these movies to my library, however, when it scans the library it thinks these 2 different movies are the same thing, even though the file names are different. Tried moving Devil Wears Prada to a different folder, and even though an .nfo and .bif file were created, it does not show up in my library

This is really helpful , and thanks for the explanation. I'm out of town at the moment and will check in a couple days when I get back (I don't have it configured for remote access). thanks.

I've not tested the old ATV app nearly as often since it's being sunset, but it does not seem to have the same issue as far as I can tell. I tested again this morning after your post and it does seem to respect the 30 minute timeout that is set.

You're looking at the exact same paths that are defined in emby server? Can you show a screenshot?

Alexa has been updated, can you please try again?

is anyone able to display subrip subtitles when transcoding? i've been having issues for the past few years. playing a file when transcoding, without subs selected: working playing a file when transcoding, with subpgs subs selected: working playing a file when transcoding, with subrip subs selected: NOT working playing a file when NOT transcoding, with subrip subs selected: working i don't have issues transcoding subrips on any other clients (firestick, web browser, etc).

Bringing this same issue back. Running 4.9.5.0 Exact same issue as reported a few years back. Seems to only happen on older (lower resolution) tv channels like MeTV, H&I, Rewind etc. I have found that forcing it back to a 480 - 1Mbps corrects the problem.
