emveepee 112 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I should have some time by the time v5 is out but it will only be lightly tested as I am not an Emby user. Better to push Emby dev if you want stability. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14903 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Not sure. Could be end of year before Emby updates. Past experience says 'don't hold your breath' Our past release period was (I believe) the longest in our history at just under 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHSPVR 119 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 That is thread is just a case of Emby having stale data. It just needed to be set to refresh it's guide soon after NextPVR updated it's guide. (be ideal if there was some URL we could call or something, to tell Emby to refresh it's guide). If it didn't work for you, I'm sure it's just something you did wrong. The only cases we've seen of Emby not getting artwork is when it's asking for old show ids that no longer exists. (ie, stale data) That the whole point Sub if I did something wrong then how come it always show back up after doing mid afternoon or mid day guide update sometime I even have do it at night time. Keep in mind of who you also have keep happy in the house hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind of who you also have keep happy in the house hold. I think realistically if you're using Schedules Direct, then you've probably got nothing to gain from doing multiple EPG updates during the day. Just let it do the one overnight update, and schedule Emby to do the update soon after. If there was some Emby URL or command you could run to tell Emby to reload it's data, you could easily put that in the PostUpdate.bat, and NextPVR would run it anytime the EPG is updated. Either way - this isn't a bug or short coming in NextPVR. It's just the way the Emby guys are doing things. They could easily solve this in their addon if they wanted to.

emveepee 112 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) sub, is image loading in NextPVR still asynchronous? Depending on how Emby is checking the URL, the image might not be available immediately especially if Emby is flooding the server with request for EPG images. NEWA handling of images is also slightly different then your methods. Martin Edited March 26, 2019 by emveepee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emveepee 112 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I was a bit surprised today to see that it appears that I might have to pay to use NextPVR via Emby. Hopefully I am missing something, I see the recordings but can't access NextPVR's guide or channel list. Any suggestions? Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEWA handling of images is also slightly different then your methods. Martin From Emby's perspective it's synchronous. The client asks for the artwork, and it's either return immediately from the cache, or after a short delay if it has to find and download the artwork. The only situation I've seen where it's had problems is when emby has asked for artwork from a event id that doesn't exist (because the guide data that emby has is stale, and that show id no longer exists). I've not seen them or Kodi hit the service hard. They're usually only requesting the artwork for a show the user has clicked on in the guide.

All I can give you is a maybe. I have experimented with it a few months back (in v4), but decided against it at that stage, but I might revisit that in v5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this is a change that sucks, the guide and live tv from the NextPVR plugin used to be free in Emby.

I haven't tested it at all since MB3 when I helped Sven out and was coming back to help support the conversion to NextPVR v5.

I think you have the wrong understanding of what's being charged for. Live TV/DVR functionality of the Emby core is now part of Premiere. Premiere of course pays the bills to keep the devs working and churning out new code, pays for the EPG data that is also now available and is high quality, pays for the use 25 premiere clients and all the development work needed for TV/DVR on the client side as well as the server, pays for the transcoding and HW transcoding dev work to make this all runs smoother, etc It has little to do with any DVR plugins that just augment the functionality already in Emby.
