Thanks @Riptide126for the corresponding logs. I can see a difference and in the case of the iPhone test the transcode was started - the media was being transcoded because of the high bit rate. For the iPad for some reason the transcode was not started. Your tests were not exactly like for like - in that you were using a different user account for the iPad test from that for the iPhone. Would prefer comparison tests to be done using the same account I see we have an updated version of the Emby of iOS app out now - with versions 2.2.20 and 2.2.21 addressing video playback issues. Could you update the app on the iPad to the latest available and try again - using same user account you did the test on the iPhone and let me have the server log for that test - as well as any ffmpeg log file generated - please test with the same video as before - and please compare the app playback settings on the iPhone and iPad and make sure they are the same for this test. Thanks

Thanks, Luke. Let me know if you need any other info or logs. I'm only looking for a more sticky setting that doesn't reset on a reboot. Anything that can be provided is appreciated

Short update, while I try to continously experiment with the folder structure and naming: My theory with 600 files per folder was just validated as it is as fruitless as my previous setups. So with my actual configuration it's really the jump into the second folder that causes the metadata additon to halt for whichever reason. It's plain reproducable within my setup. I'll try to experiment a bit more, until I can deduct the relevant configuration or mechanism.

And I've scanned from the server interface, and I've moved it into a new collection...same behavior...there is no audio/file information. it has to be something from adding the tracks, but VLC sees them all, even the track names I provide in MKVToolNix. I feel like its something obvious I'm doing (I've never added audio tracks before) but not sure.

Here it is while my library scan was stuck 90% Thanks! embyserver.txt

I'm having the same issue with 4.9.0.22 beta running under docker. Rolling back to 4.9.0.21 resolves the issue. Comparison HW detection logs for both versions attached. hardware_detection 4.9.0.21..txt hardware_detection 4.9.0.22.txt

These are awesome!! Thanks Demon!

What are your prompts for these?

ffmpeg can identify all info, someone wrote in another one here I'm out with all the technical stuff, really no clue. but from a design perspective, as an amateur, I don't see any issue here with dublicate info or the overall approach. this is kindergarten. I know people who could draft 3 different views in 2h, and all of them would look great but they are expensive maybe 2500 eur a day.. I have no clue why its not there already for 5 years but it's also not so important for me that I would pay extra bugs like I would for some other things. hmm, or maybe I would

It's the library where I've done the scan and refresh metadata.

You can also just sign up for the beta app releases in your Google account.

Update: I made sure all my metadata options were selected and was able to refresh the metadata and get my library identified. I will check periodically and if they get deselected again I will drop my latest log to hopefully get a resolution. But for now its looking like its working.

where the info is coming from is the whole point (practicality) the problem is that they are not willing to use mediainfo (for either legal, financial or technical reasons, dunno), so the solution might be to check the emedded track name (as most have atmos mentioned, not ideal but better than nothing ) and this is not even the point, we are talking about icons in general, and if they are shown and the drop menu only shows languange unless you click on it to choose is a viable solution, and will look better than now with a lot of writing (and as you said in most cases, it is cropped)

@LukeOH well, whatever not what was asked for. For the time being I am going with this for one of my music clients. The play and shuffle buttons work as expected. The Artist definition uses an accepted standard. and BTW this app seems to have no problem correctly formatting the description. Funny thing exact same data. And Mr Lennon only gets an 'Artist" credit one album, vs the 80 plus that emby displays. @Luke btw these guys actually read nfo files in my music library unlike EMBY can't tell you how surprised I was to find Descriptions and tags that I updated in EMBY UI show up in this UI. -vicpa Apologies to the Dead.. "Emby Team, you better watch your speed Trouble ahead, trouble behind ......And you know that notion just crossed my mind..."

Right. At first I didn't think I could do that (was looking in the wrong place), then after the damage was done I saw where I could change the address. Still, losing scheduled recordings and making me think series are still in tact (when they are not) still needs to be addressed. The TV channels didn't change. Feel free to change the thread title.

Could you please provide a method for activating in China? In China, it is not possible to activate by purchasing from Google Store. Can you provide an activation code to activate the client? Or other activation methods. This will help us a lot.

Is the first log after you made the inotify changes and the second two (contains errors) before? At what time in the first log did you copy something new to the watched folders? It won't pick up stuff missed before the fix. 2024-05-25 21:13:09.849 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Kids Cartoons 2024-05-25 21:13:09.850 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Anime 2024-05-25 21:13:09.863 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Songs 2024-05-25 21:13:09.863 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/W&K Wedding Photos and Videos/W&K Wedding video 2024-05-25 21:13:09.867 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/Wedding Videos 2024-05-25 21:13:09.899 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/W&K Wedding Photos and Videos/W&K Wedding Short Videos 2024-05-25 21:13:10.019 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/W&K Wedding Photos and Videos/W&K Wedding Photos 2024-05-25 21:13:10.499 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/Family Videos 2024-05-25 21:13:10.594 Info LibraryMonitor: Watching directory /volume1/homes/waqarzahoor/Photos/Family Photos

Look at the link you were just given. A key part of reporting is to provide the log from the server. Remember that many, many people are using these programs without a problem, so it is necessary to look at details, like the logs, to find what is causing the failure in your specific case. Paul

I beleive it is the latter. Someone is sharing with me...

It seems that Qnap updated there nvidia driver, and not recognized by Emby server now. below docker compose file was working and containers can start and with hw acceleration, but now the hardware acceleraiton device list is gone. Qnap: Ts-873a, added 1050 graphic card version of Qnap nvkerneldriver: 5.17; installed latest GPU driver also. After recent qnap updates, this happed, we didn't rebuild the emby server. Current dock compose file: version: '3.6' services: emby: build: dockerfile: /share/Container/jellyfin8/Dockerfile context: /share/CACHEDEV2_DATA/.qpkg/NVIDIA_GPU_DRV/usr container_name: emby2 environment: PUID: 1000 PGID: 1000 GIDLIST: 0 TZ: Asia/Shanghai volumes: - /share/Container/jellyfin8/docker/config/emby:/config - /share/Cinema:/media - /share/PT:/media2 - type: tmpfs target: /scratch tmpfs: size: 10000000000 - /share/Container/jellyfin8/media/scratch:/scratch ports: - '8096:8096' # HTTP port - '8920:8920' # HTTPS port - '7359:7359' - '1900:1900' devices: - /dev/nvidia0 - /dev/nvidiactl - /dev/nvidia-uvm restart: unless-stopped image: embyhwtrc network_mode: bridge and enter SSH, use: docker compose up --build -d to build up. but, if change to jellyfin, it works and can use hw acceration: version: '3.6' services: jellyfin: build: dockerfile: /share/Container/jellyfin2/Dockerfile context: /share/CACHEDEV2_DATA/.qpkg/NVIDIA_GPU_DRV/usr container_name: jellyfin2 environment: PUID: 1000 PGID: 1000 GIDLIST: 0 TZ: Aisa/Shanghai volumes: - /share/Container/jellyfin2/config:/config - /share/Container/jellyfin2/scratch:/scratch - /share/Container/jellyfin2/transcode:/transcode - /share/Cinema:/media - /share/PT:/media2 - type: tmpfs target: /scratch tmpfs: size: 10000000000 - /share/Container/jellyfin2/media/scratch:/scratch ports: - '8097:8096' - '8921:8920' devices: - /dev/nvidia0 - /dev/nvidiactl - /dev/nvidia-uvm restart: unless-stopped image: jellyfinhwtrc network_mode: bridge so don't know how to solve emby sever hw acceleration problem.

Hello Emby Community, I am currently working on enhancing my XMLTV file with data from The Movie Database (TMDB) to improve the visual experience in Emby. I have a few questions regarding how Emby handles images specified in the XMLTV guide data: 1. Posters and Backdrops: Is there a way to specify both poster and backdrop images within the XMLTV file so that they are properly displayed in Emby? If so, what tags or attributes should I use to differentiate between the two types of images? 2. Icon Tag: Currently, I am using the <icon> tag to include images. Could you please clarify what the <icon> tag corresponds to in Emby? Is it used as a poster, thumbnail, or something else? 3. Resolution and Aspect Ratio: What are the recommended resolution and aspect ratio for images included in the XMLTV file to ensure they display correctly and look good in Emby’s interface? I appreciate any guidance or examples you can provide to help me enhance my XMLTV file with the appropriate image data. Thank you!

Have you installed your own server and populated it with media (or someone shared their server with you)? Quick Start

The error I am getting is attached. Also cannot see a server. Tried switchong off and on, going in and out of the app as well. Help?

quickmic has it solved… here is a version of Embuary that will work with Omega… tested on several different platforms without issue… https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/d4qcu3fxqpiw00jn4qoli/skin.embuary-master.zip?rlkey=fig7owt783xl9axlu6ztmzjiu&dl=0 Note: Sualfred’s original skin. The only thing I have changed is removing the version checking as per quickmic’s advice. Save the file and then go to Addons / Install from zip file… Then enjoy the best skin for Emby ever!!!
