Thanks for the suggestion, hthgihwaymonk. Unfortunately, that is not what I am after. I need to be able to get the IDs of each show or movie so I can then make calls to endpoints such as `/Shows/{Id}/Episodes`

I don't know why I didn't think to try the context menu. Yes, it's there.

ok. looking at this page: https://emby.media/truenas-server.html I was going to set up a manual Jail, but it seems to be a bit more involved.. I was getting hung up on zpools..

Thanks Luke. On reflection this is probably actually what's happening. The video is naturally very bright/washed out and this overlay is briefly darkening it.

I have the emby app apple app, a Roku device and the app in one W11 Computer. All those devices connected to the server before, about 10 days ago they all stop connecting and when I try to reconnect them they tell that they are not able to reach the server? See the attachment with the error message I get in all my devices. Thank you and I hope can get a answer to solve this issue.

We need this feature asap imo.

ALRIGHT I renamed the Austin Powers movies/folders like an adult this time and now both movies show up 100% fine. As for Clash of the Titans: Idk, I'm watching it right now lol. Must be in there. I uploaded a new server log if you're curious but not a big deal anymore. This is a bit above my pay grade but the name at least appears now: Alright I used the identify feature for Clash of the Titans. The cover art looks good: And the correct cast is shown, but the background image is still the same. Refreshed metadata but it's still wrong: I don't mean to be pedantic, but is it possible to get the correct metadata to show up without using the identify feature? If you need anything just let me know. As for Star Wars: Is there anything I can do to get all movies to show up when searching "Star Wars" or have episode 4 show up when searching "A New Hope"? embyserver-2.txt

Hi @ebr, Any fix for this issue yet?

I'm unsure how or why but the only method I can use to watch Live TV via this app is through the new BETA feature Native (Achieve). The new plugin from the BETA version of Emby I downloaded from the Plugin Library is very fast - extremely impressed and really took my Dashboard to the next level. I re-created my fav TV Channels this way. A major thanks to the dev! I even setup bumpers (commercials from the 90's) to re-create the virtual mock-up of 90's style channels. Love it!!!!

Well shoot, it looks like you might be correct but you are also right that it is not ideal to toggle of the hardware acceleration. I will leave it off for now and see what happens, thanks for engaging.

They will be coming. Roku also has a patent on injecting ads into any HDMI stream connected to their devices. If you don't have a pi-hole, this is your warning that they are now necessary.

Hi, I've noticed that when a conversion is running on a library, the list of converted items repeats. It also doesn't show what item is currently being converted. Is this behavior to be expected?

I am doing a fresh installation of Emby server and I don't understand why some library image folders are not generated. As example, Blu-Ray has not image but UHD 4K. Is there any way to force it or know why this happens? The installed server version is 4.8.5.0

Thanks. I was just looking on the Kodi.Wiki page and there's Embuary (Matrix) in the Omega V21 repo (which Kodi obviously doesn't like). I suppose someone could update the addon.xml and upload it to the repo? Any idea on how to do this? I think this would solve everyone's problems

I was desperate to fix this asap so asked chatgpt lol and this is what I got - mkdir -p /mydownloads/completed chown -R emby:emby /mydownloads/completed running those commands and then selecting /mydownloads/completed as my library path has resolved my issue. But thanks for the insight. I will read up those articles and learn more about permissions and ownershipts.

I have the same issue, and it did work at some point. Did you happen to upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04 (6.8.x kernel)? If so, I believe it's related to this post as well. I think the version of OpenCL that Emby uses doesn't detect Intel Arc cards with the new kernel. Attached are my logs as well. ffmpeg-transcode-d1842273-f7f4-4a7c-8293-80ab91df4166_1.txt

Omega uses gui version 5.17. I would just leave it at that.

Necro thread or not? OP never followed up and it's been more than a few years. I'm having this issue presently and it seems "maybe" I should uninstall and reinstall because it started after the Emby executable got foobar'd. I recently updated my media pc from a much older i5-4th to an i9-14th, and as annoying as it is, the Intel 14th is a power hungry hot running PO_. Memory manufacturers of DDR5 are meh, and the MOBO company has released 12 BIOS updates in 5 months, 9 of which are "stability" related. And to top it all off, I figured "why not get the latest Samsung M.2?" I went Samsung 990 Pro 2TB Gen 4) and they too have hardware issues where the drive corrupts itself to the point it is not salvageable (allegedly). Anyways... I reinstalled Emby on top of the existing install, and all the users work, the mounts work, the plugins work, all looks good... for less than 24 hours. Suddenly the server is no longer responsive on the web port (even locally), and if I "restart" it from the taskbar icon (I'm on Win 11 Pro), it wont work still. But if I exit it, then manually releaunch it, it works again.... for about 24 hours.

When I ask the emby server to "restart" by means of the taskbar icon, it doesn't do anything. Logs dont get updated, nothing happens. It appears the computer continues to run properly. Just curious if there is some advanced debugger I can run?

HI, yes that's a good idea. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi, there is nothing like this, but older versions of the server may have done the opposite - darkening while a menu was open and then removing that layer once closed.

Hi, yes it makes sense. The context menu on an extra should have play all from here, no?

Hi, this is likely to cause problems with multi-versions, so I would look at our naming examples here: Movie Naming

Hi, we'll look into this. Thanks.

Hi, can you please attach the emby server log from prior to this? Thanks.

A quick note. this 10.0.19 still doesn't keep track of strm files with a plugin source. The version that you sent me in the PM still works.
