But the person was already in your database. Moving an installation between windows and linux is not fully supported yet. Existing impacted people are going to require manual fixup as I've outlined in this topic. New people that are not in your database shouldn't have any problem as you continue to add new movies and shows.

Oh, the second one is actually from the movie I just added, so what I should do then?

So regarding Anthony Mackie, the server thinks you already have an image, but the path is invalid: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/var/lib/emby/metadata\people\a\Anthony Mackie-tmdb-53650\folder.jpg'. File name: '/var/lib/emby/metadata\people\a\Anthony Mackie-tmdb-53650\folder.jpg' So it errors when trying to access that image. That's why you see the broken placeholder in your screenshot. After the first failed attempt, the server removes the invalid path from the database so that it doesn't keep erroring over and over. So then at that point you have no image for that person, and that brings us to where you are today.

I moved some time ago my Emby server from Windows to Ubuntu, but I was having the issue with photos long before that. But these errors are from mp3 library. What do you suggest I should try?

Plugin Extensibility for Live TV "On Now" Recommendations (general Home Screen Section API)
FlameRed posted a topic in Feature Requests
Feature Request: Plugin Extensibility for Live TV "On Now" Recommendations (or a general Home Screen Section API) Summary There's currently no supported way for a plugin to influence what appears in the "On Now" Live TV row on the home screen, or to add a custom row/section to the home screen at all, in a way that renders across all official clients (web, Roku, Android TV, Fire TV, iOS, Android). I'd like to request either of the two extensibility points described below. Motivation / use case I built a working plugin that pulls all currently-airing Live TV programs and ranks them by TMDB popularity (as a more useful alternative to the semi-random subset "On Now" currently shows). The ranking logic itself works well as a standalone JSON API endpoint. The problem is surfacing it: There's no hook into the logic behind the native "On Now" row, so a plugin can't re-order or replace what it shows. There's no documented Home Screen Section API a plugin can register a custom row against. The only "native, renders-everywhere" content types a plugin can populate (via ICollectionManager) are Collections and Playlists — which work great for persistent library items, but don't fit Live TV programs well, since EPG program entries are ephemeral and get purged/replaced as the guide data refreshes. Adding a currently-airing program's item ID to a Collection today risks that reference becoming stale within the hour. As a result, the only way I found to actually display this data is a browser-side script injected via a userscript manager or reverse proxy — which only reaches desktop/laptop browsers and never reaches Roku, Android TV, Fire TV, or the mobile apps. For a Live TV-focused feature, that's a significant gap. What I'm requesting (either would solve this) Option A — A pluggable recommendation source for Live TV. Something analogous to how metadata providers or channel providers are registered today: an interface such as ILiveTvRecommendationProvider that a plugin can implement to supply (or re-order) the list of programs shown in the "On Now"/recommended row, with the core server falling back to its existing default logic when no plugin provides one. Option B — A documented Home Screen Section API. A general extension point (e.g. IHomeScreenSectionProvider or similar) allowing a plugin to register a named section with a data source, which official clients would then render as a normal home screen row — the same way built-in rows like "Continue Watching" or "Latest" work. This would be more broadly useful than Option A alone, since it would also unblock other kinds of custom home screen content beyond Live TV. Why this matters A few actively-maintained community plugins (e.g. Aperture, Home Screen Companion) already work around this today by generating symlinked library folders or managing Collections/Playlists behind the scenes, specifically because there's no cleaner way to get custom content to render on every client. That workaround is solid for persistent library content, but it structurally can't extend to real-time/ephemeral data like Live TV EPG programs. A documented extension point would remove the need for these workarounds and make plugin-driven home screen customization officially supported rather than reverse-engineered. Happy to help test I'm an Emby beta tester and already have a working plugin (ranking logic, TMDB matching, caching) ready to plug into whatever interface gets added — happy to test any preview build of this against it. Thanks for considering this. -
Probably more than one thing misconfigured: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/var/lib/emby/metadata\people\c\Claudia Kim-tmdb-1401531\folder.jpg'. File name: '/var/lib/emby/metadata\people\c\Claudia Kim-tmdb-1401531\folder.jpg' Note in both cases the mix of forward and backward slashes.

Something is misconfigured somewhere. Look at these paths: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/opt/emby-server/D:\MP3\Jeff Mills\Jeff Mills - Sleeper Wakes (FLAC)\folder.jpg'. File name: '/opt/emby-server/D:\MP3\Jeff Mills\Jeff Mills - Sleeper Wakes (FLAC)\folder.jpg'

If you have RTM enabled for the library(s), Emby will automatically take care of it. Otherwise, there is no hurry to re-scan, as it won’t hurt anything, but if you try to play a deleted item it will just throw an error (no big deal), the next scan will remove the entry completely. Just make sure you delete the directory, not just the videos.

This has probably been posted before and I think I may already know the answer having used Emby for so long.. My 94TB storage is nearly full because I'm a hoarder of everything I can grab such that there's more to watch on my server than I can watch in the balance of my lifetime even watching 24/7/365. Add to that, with today's prices for hard drives, I'm not adding another at this time. I'd like to just delete old stuff using Windows Explorer for the quick and dirty method which I don't think is a problem and I even think Emby will recognize the change but should I kick off a scan after deleting excess junk I'm never going to watch?

Sorry @LukeI did give the instructions of what I did. Steps I took Added the Supergirl-NOSUB.mkv to the library and re-scanned Played the movie Selected any of the 4 subtitles that are embedded None of them show Removed the -NOSUB version from the library Added Supergirl.mkv to the library Played the movie Downloaded the .srt via emby (any one works as an example, I dont care if it doesnt line up) the Subtitles work

Plugin: Ginjaninja Tools - Consistent Season Images - Help to ensure all images are part of the same set
Sammy replied to ginjaninja's topic in Plugins
@GrimReaperWe were on a cruise with two stops in Dubrovnik and Split. Neither of these were on my wife's or my bucket list for world adventures but we definitely will return someday! Back to our normally scheduled programing. @ginjaninjaI can sleep at night with my metadata amuck amuck amuck but can you explain what this plugin does?- 3 replies

Plugin: Ginjaninja Tools - Consistent Season Images - Help to ensure all images are part of the same set
ginjaninja replied to ginjaninja's topic in Plugins
0.1.0.18 Added a notification for Admins if images found on provider when missing on emby. (All|Posters|Banners) (cached with staggered expiry). Added availability filter to UI to show such shows (respects the layout Show All|Poster|Banners) Added an ignore flag for series you dont want to clutter the ui (because you know they are lost causes) More promiscuous in allowing cross season drag and drop with green/amber/red warning. Drag directly on to current placeholder to update emby (an alternative to apply) (blue) Any feedback much appreciated, i need a few users / feedback before i can put it on the store.- 3 replies

My continue watching does not keep up-to-date on the 'next' episode. Using Emby for Android app. It will show something from several episodes old and I have to go to that wrong episode, back up and go to Series, and there is MAY show me the correct next episode. Occasionally, if I back, back, back, and exit and relaunch, it will finally set to the right episode. This is impossible to explain to my parents! Please tell me there is a solution.

Your nvenc drop-in is definitely the culprit. My new method relies on runpath instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it's less invasive and thus more portable. Still need to iron some things out to make sure dlopened libs still work, but it should make it so you don't need to add LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your drop-in as well. I'll have a custom build ready for you later this week.

This is when cast member photo urls are obtained, so this is when it should happen. But for existing ones that are missing, all of this happened in the past, so there's no way to know why. You can refresh metadata as I suggested and then if it happens with a new movie we can look closer at it.

That's not all it is. It's specifically being developed with an API/webhooks for developers. The primary use case for which is precisely what I'm talking about here. Emby could theoretically create their owner player with Ray integrations. Or Emby could post media info to a webhook every time a new file hits your filesystem and OS would return a complete subtitle file. That's not far off from how emby already handles automatic subtitle downloads but by using Ray webhooks, you would get a generated file if one didn't exist before which would probably require additional information passed to OS. That level of detail isn't known, so I'm speculating here, but the idea of Ray integrations into media players isn't speculation. I've also heard concepts thrown around on Reddit about the idea of a companion that kind of 'watches' the movie with you. Basically someone you can ask questions to that is aware of where you are in the movie so as to avoid spoilers. "Hey that didn't make sense just now. Did I miss something?" Ray might respond with what you missed, or a timestamp of where you might jump back to see it. Ray may also tell you that you didn't miss anything and that you just need to be patient. I watched a movie just last night where I asked my wife a question like that and we just had to rewind a few seconds to catch it, but I've definitely been 'in too deep' before to just rewind and hope I find what I missed because naturally I don't know where it might be. This would be great in ebooks too, but I digress. Lot's of interesting ideas out there for technology like this. Guess I was just wondering if Emby has any intention of approaching it or if there is a reason they don't want to.
