Emby Server 3.0.5870 Released


Luke

7620 views

A new release is slowly rolling out to the stable branch, containing new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements.

 

Important Information About This Release

 

After restarting, Emby Server will perform a database upgrade. This process may take a little while, so please schedule your upgrade accordingly. During this time, your local Emby web interface will be the only app you'll be able to access. Due to the database upgrade, we do not recommend attempting to roll back to any previous release after installing this version.

 

Depending on how old your server installation is, you may see some user settings reset, such as view orders and grouping settings.

 

These database upgrades are laying the foundation for some pretty dramatic performance improvements in future Emby Server releases. We ask you for your patience during the upgrade process.

 

Here are the release highlights.

 

Convert Your Recordings on the Fly

 

When scheduling recordings, there's now an option to convert your Live TV recordings on the fly to streaming friendly MP4. Storing your recordings in MP4 is a great way to help avoid transcoding during playback, as it is compatible with a broad range of devices. This feature requires an active Emby Premiere subscription.

New Cinema Mode Features

 

This is a treat for our advanced users. Now, in addition to custom intros, you can assign intros based on audio codecs and tags. Have you ever wanted to create a custom intro for all your movies with DTS audio? Now you can. Or how about a custom intro for all of your Valentine's Day flicks? Now you can using intros by tags.

Thanks, will do. Out of curiosity, how are you staggering the rollout? Are you going by IP address range?

Might I suggest a minor version incremental increase (3.1.000) to easily delineate the point which should not be rolled back further than? 

 

(grammatically abysmal)

Wow!  I was about to send in a comment about how watching Live TV via the Fire TV wasn't coming back after I paused it.  Decided to take the update thinking, maybe it will resolve it.  After all, it's not like it's a corner case to pause TV and I'm not on the beta.  Now the guide and livetv is completely gone from my fire tv.  

 

Is this a mistake or is there something I need to do?  Pretty much takes this from something I'd use to something I won't.

You might just need to wait for the guide to refresh. You can force it manually under live tv setup. if that doesn't help, then please post in the community by seeing here: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/

Thanks.

Hi,

 

I did a fresh install with the new version and did a complete library rebuild. Here is the problem:

 

With the new version the generation of chapter images does not seem to work anymore. Chapter generation finishes after few secons. The logs shows pretty much nothing:

 

2016-02-16 11:10:06.3478 Info TaskManager: Executing Chapter image extraction

[...]

2016-02-16 11:10:06.6317 Info App: Stopping chapter extraction for [...] because a chapter was found with a position greater than the runtime.

[...]

2016-02-16 11:10:09.4114 Info TaskManager: Chapter image extraction Completed after 0 minute(s) and 3 seconds
2016-02-16 11:10:09.4134 Info ServerManager: Sending web socket message ScheduledTaskEnded
2016-02-16 11:10:09.4136 Info TaskManager: ExecuteQueuedTasks

 

Does anyone else has this problem?

 

Best regards

Since the update DLNA stopped working with my Samsung TV. I get the message "No video files found on the connected device". I tried restarting both sides and rebuilding the library. It seems to work fine with other DLNA clients.

 

I can stream the content to the TV from the web UI.

 

Any help!

 

Thanks Tom

Do I need to set up my recordings again to take advantage of the MP4 on the fly option?  I set it up on the configuration page, but going into the scheduled recordings section I can't tell if it's actually going to happen.  The current recordings detail page says the container is .ts and that the file is still going to be a .ts recording.  Fairly sure I set it a while ago, but went to check now and it's checked so perhaps I'm missing something?

 

I deleted a series and reset it up using the checkbox (screenshot above) so I'll check on that tonight when I get back, but maybe I'm not checking the right place.

Hi all, I have just today recently installed Emby Server on my PC and I'm having the same issue as DiverTom above on a Samsung TV. The Emby Samsung app and streaming from my phone or the web client works, but the DLNA connection shows 'no video files found'. Any suggestions?
