Aside form the usual Movies and TV libraries, I also have a Concert Videos and Documentaries (mixed content) libraries. All but the Documentaries library show new content in Kodi after scanning the library from within Emby. For some reason the Documentaries library does not. After scanning the libraries, new documentary shows will appear in Emby but not Kodi. So I went into Addons>Video add-ons>Emby>Update libraries, selected Documentaries and clicked OK. After the scan, it found the new Documentary series but also then showed duplicates for all the previously existing documentary series. It did not do this for any previously existing documentary movies. Why is this happening? On a secondary note, what happened to the incremental sync option from before? That was a fast way to find new content that may have been missed for some reason. Is there an equivalent now?

Hello. For some reason I can no longer play DVD rips (using VIDEO_TS structure) in Kodi. All other videos such as MKVs, MP4s, etc play fine. I thought initially it may be a Kodi for Android TV issue, but it happens on a Windows client as well. Also, it started happening initially with Stable Versions of Kodi, Emby for Kodi Plugin, and Emby server. I have since tried using the Kodi Leia RC and Emby for Kodi Plugin Beta as well as combinations of stable and beta versions of both and have seen the same results. Here is an excerpt from the log:

I'm a bit confused - today I did a reset of my Kodi DB and now some strange ratings started to show up for approx half of my movies (as far as I can tell on a scale from 0 to 100 - stored in the "your rating" field of kodis movie information). I've never seen them before. Is this a new feature? If yes, why do only certain movies get these ratings? I'm using an emby 3.5.3.0 server, Kodi for emby 3.1.32a and Kodi 17.6

Server: WHS2011 running Emby 4.0.2 Clients: x86 LibreElec 8.95.2 (clean installation some days ago.) , RPI3 LibeElec 8.95.2, Khadas VIM LibreElec, all Clients do not work correctly Emby for Kodi 3.1.44a ( AddOn Mode ) Hi, since some days i have a problem with media playback. Today, a movie startet. I stopped it and started the movie again but from then there was no more media playback possible. Right now my living room htpc is not starting any media. Except i start remote playback from embys webinterface. Dont know if this belongs together, but i had issues with live tv with my iOS device, too. Basicly the same behavior, only that movies and tv series were running fine. I can provide more detailed logs later. log-2019-01-19-15.29.38.zip

With the new multi-version TV support, I just was testing a series. Navigated to episode 1, hit play, it correctly asked me if I wanted the HD version or the SD version. But if I hit the back button on the remote or if I hit cancel, I get an error message from the Emby addon. It then (based on my Kodi settings to continue to the next episode after playback) attempts to play episode 2 and shows me the selector again. If I select an episode and then watch it or hit stop, that of course works. 3.1.43c, with Kodi 18.0 RC5 (on Android/Shield TV), connecting to Server 4.0.0.2.

I had added a music library with Emby 3.5.3, a lot of artists were wrongly recognized on musicbrainz, and the bogus data added to kodi by Emby for Kodi, so a bunch of artists are not properly recognized by kodi. Now I updated to Emby 4, did a Emby rescan and now it properly recognized most of the artists in Emby. Though Emby for Kodi doesn't seem to update those artists in Kodi. I tried to Repair the Music Library in Emby for Kodi, but I get this error: 10:33:07.730 T:3052 NOTICE: EMBY.entrypoint.default -> path: params: {} 10:33:13.560 T:4552 NOTICE: EMBY.entrypoint.default -> path: ?mode=managelibs params: { "mode": "managelibs" } 10:33:17.897 T:4124 NOTICE: EMBY.entrypoint.default -> path: ?mode=updatelibs params: { "mode": "updatelibs" } 10:33:24.578 T:8720 NOTICE: EMBY.database -> ERROR:: type: <class 'helper.exceptions.LibraryException'> value: 10:33:24.626 T:8720 NOTICE: Previous line repeats 1 times. 10:33:24.626 T:8720 NOTICE: EMBY.library -> ERROR:: Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\library.py", line 532, in add_library FullSync(self, library_id, update=update) File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\full_sync.py", line 62, in __init__ self.start() File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\full_sync.py", line 158, in start self.process_library(library) File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\full_sync.py", line 215, in process_library media[library['CollectionType']](library) File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\helper\wrapper.py", line 38, in wrapper result = func(self, dialog=dialog, *args, **kwargs) File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\full_sync.py", line 368, in music for items in server.get_artists(library['Id'], False, self.sync['RestorePoint'].get('params')): File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\downloader.py", line 201, in get_artists for items in _get_items(query, server_id): File "D:\Kodi\portable_data\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\helper\wrapper.py", line 95, in wrapper raise LibraryException("StopCalled") LibraryException 10:33:25.231 T:6692 NOTICE: EMBY.entrypoint.default -> path: ?mode=managelibs params: { "mode": "managelibs" } What should I do to make Kodi pick up the updated artists?

Good Evening, Running Kodi v18 RC5 with Emby addon 3.1.44a / Emby Server Beta Version 4.0.0.2 beta. All working great but getting this popup when kodi tries to play the next episode that has a resume point: Is there a setting I've missed which will automatically select play from beginning for me? Thanks

Hi, I'm on Kodi master and version 3.1.34a of the plugin. My music library is syncing according to the logfile (see attachment), but somehow it won't show up in de GUI. Movies and Series are working as it should. The logfile was captured when running "update libraries" trough the emby addon.

Hi Happen again Libraries not auto updating after server update to 4.0.0.0 If I restart Kodi it finds the updates and update ok.

Dear Community, i am using the last Kodi Beta Version (Kodi 18 Beta 5) with the last Emby Plugin Alpha Version (3.1.32a) on a Huawei Mediapad M5 Lite. My Problem is that the Music Library is always empty. The following steps that i have already done: - Installed different Plugin Versions - Installed different Kodi Versions - Updated the database manually - Repaired the database manually - Reinstalled Kodi If i removing the "Musik" Folder from the Kodi Library via. long touching on it (Remove Library from Kodi), i can acess the Media via. a "Musik (dynamic)" folder. While there are problems with the Music Synchronizing, the Movie Synchronizing works perfect. I attached some Screenshots for describing the Problem better, hope it helps.

Hello, For a while now (I believe with the beta addon - currently 3.1.31a) I can't control Kodi remotely from the Android app. It just never shows in the "play on" dropdown. I can see the devices in Emby dashboard, but not in the Android app. Anything more I can add?

Hi - not sure if this is an Emby for Kodi bug, Embuary bug, or EmbyCon bug, but I noticed something strange today while navigating my library. I have a home videos & photos library set up on my server for some downloaded youtube videos for offline playback. I use embuary on Kodi RC2, and when I navigate to the home videos library shortcut on my homescreen going through emby for kodi, when viewing the videos in the 'wide' view, all of the video thumbnails show the the xxxx-landscape.jpg for each video (which is a generic file I put into each folder for each video, and isn't a thumb of the actual video), instead of the xxxx-poster.jpg for each video (which is a thumbnail of each individual video, and is auto-generated by the emby server). However, when I navigate to the the same library shortcut on my homescreen, but this time go through embycon, the video thumbnails all show the thumbnail of the actual video, which indicates to me that embuary is showing the xxxx-poster.jpg. Here is a screenshot of both views to show what I'm talking about: Emby for Kodi: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ksu3yXVYAn9AJYa79 EmbyCon: https://photos.app.goo.gl/riQYcyVBT4qMkY5g8 Ultimately, I would like to have the emby for kodi view match up to the embycon view. I would just use embycon for this view and call it a day, but on my main box (I discovered this on my test machine), I use embycon for my daughter's emby profile so that she is able to watch her shows/movies, while at the same time keeping them separate from my wife and my shows/movies, and this library is not added to my daughter's profile. Here is a log of me navigating both views (clean install, other than installing emby for kodi, embycon, & embuary): https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SmvH3y28cx/ Here is a screenshot of what the file structure looks like on my server: https://photos.app.goo.gl/3g3wYg8zg9stQgks9 Thanks for your help

They only display once I manually force them on per-playback. Setting "default for all media" in the "Video" section of the OSD, does nothing. I have 3 NVidia Shields. 2 were running RC2 and running RC3 did nothing to fix. The other NVidia Shield was running RC1 with 3.1.34a and as soon as I updated to 3.1.35a it also started getting affected by the above. Only seems to work with 3.1.34a despite the Leia version, from my testings. As soon as 3.1.35a gets installed, subtitles are auto-turned off on each playback. Not been able to memorize "set default for all media" with .35. With .34 it works as expected. I'm using Native Path and no transcoding on all 3 of the machines. Can't find any thing in the logs.

I really don't have bookmarks on this specific profile but this is also the first time the plugin seems to be processing such table. What the hell? Full log attached. kodi.log

Hi. I've been using emby now for about a year on kodi (currently Leia beta 5) on Xbox without a problem. I just bought a new pc and reinstalled emby server. I installed emby again on the xbox kodi and when it starts I get a message asking if I want to resume previous sync. When I click on yes I get an error message saying something went wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Log: https://paste.kodi.tv/azavupopoz I can connect to the server and play movies when I go through the add-on. Emby v. 3.1.35a

Can we have an option that emby for kodi doesn't update while media is being played. While I'm watching something on kodi, and the plugin starts to run updates, it causes audio stuttering badly and sometimes video stutter / buffering

External subtitles detected but can't be open because path problem Here's the log short log.txt

Hi, Since a week or so now Emby has been loading sooooo slowly (up to at least 2 minutes) on my two devices (Shield and RPi3) which results, I think, in it sometimes not even loading the subtitles correctly. Turning on/off subtitles or switching to the next one doesn't even work then and I'm forced to download new ones. I think the problem would be solved if it would load fast again, but I can't figure out what it is. Help? log.txt
