Hallo Zusammen, ich hab ein Problem mit meiner MyCloudPR4100 Ich hatte meine NAS als Netzwerklaufwerk in meinem Windows 10 verknüpft. Nach einem Stromausfall konnte ich nicht mehr auf Sie zugreifen habe die Verbindung entfernt und wollte versuchen diese erneut herzustellen jedoch erfolglos. Weder mit admin Kennung noch meiner Nutzer Kennung kann ich keinen meiner Ordner auf der NAS als Netzwerklaufwerk verknüpfen. Defekt ist nichts da ich über den Webdateibrowser weiterhin problemlos Sachen herunterladen und hochladen kann. Mein emby Server funktioniert tadellos und es lassen sich alle Sachen weiterhin abspielen. NFS ist auf der NAS aktiviert. Netzwerklaufwerk verbinden... Laufwerk: Z: Ordner: \\192.168.2.100\Mediathek das müsste doch so richtig sein oder täusche ich mich nachdem ich admin und pw bestätige warte ich knapp 1-2 Minuten danach kommt das Eingabefeld erneut wenn ich bestätige ploppt es direkt wieder auf insgesamt dreimal bevor die Fehlermeldung. Das Netzwerklaufwerk konnte nicht verbunden werden, da der folgende Fehler aufgetreten ist: Das System kann auf die Datei nicht zugreifen. Weiß einer eine Möglichkeit ?

I am running Qnap version 4.2.1.0 Emby server and have never seen a setting that i can turn on that lets me view the number of files-movies in a folder. I tested out plex and it does let you know, even on the mobile app which is a cool feature. Thanks for any feedback.

Hello I have a question regarding playing original movies(no transcoding, no hardware Acceleration), Why the performance of playing original movies in LAN is so bad ？ I know my NAS server‘s performance is very bad, hardware Acceleration is not possible, so I try to play original movies on my Ipad air…but it looks terrible. so i have to try VLC player on my ipad air(Use Upnp protocol to connect with my NAS), it works great !! 4K HEVC movie is also very smooth. could you please optimize the performance of playing original movies in LAN, like VLC

This is a sort-of complicated issue. I am not sure where the issue is, but I will try to lay it out for you and give you a couple logs as well. I am running Emby Server 4.2.1 on Ubuntu 18.04.3 on the following computer: ASUS M Series M51AC Tower Core i7 4770 3.4 GHz RAM 16 GB HDD 1 TB BIOS Version: 0901 SN: XXXXXXXXXXXX Display Hardware: Command: lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 620 OEM] (rev a1) End of computer. I am running my DVR to record on WD My Cloud 4TB (NAS) over a hard wired network from a HD HomeRun box. I watch the TV programs on several different machines, but last night I was watching the Green Bay Packers play American Football before the game was complete. I was watching on a Roku Streaming Stick+ that connects to the NAS over the wireless network. A little over 1/2 way through the game, the file stream started going through a pause and play mode about 1 second each. I am fairly sure this is because one of the following or a combination of them: the NAS couldn't handle recording the TV show while it was playing an earlier portion of the TV show Emby can't handle both recording and playback of the same show at the same time My computer hardware can't handle both Something else entirely I do have a 1 TB hard drive in the ASUS computer itself. I could change the recording path to that drive and then make a cron job that moves the files about an hour after they are recorded to the NAS. I do not know if this could help the problem? I am attaching the log that I think the problem would be in. Please let me know if it isn't and I can give you other ones as well. Thank You, Mike LaPointe ffmpeg-transcode-57ae81a2-7023-43c9-bb6d-40f89ff7142b_1.txt

Hi Guys, actually I'm running my Emby on a Windows-Server 2012 R2 with a Core-i7 which is from the 3 or 4-Series. But since this costs a ton of electricity, I'd like to change this to a more energy-efficient alternative. While the new Raspberry Pi 4 seems to be very powerful, could I use this as an alternative for transcoding? (If I'm abroad, I sometimes transcode FHD-content to my mobile devices, but I often use FHD to FHD) Can anyone tell me if the RPi4 has enough power? If not, what energy-efficient alternative do you recommend? Regards, Matthias

Tentei instalar todas as versões disponíveis no site oficial e todas dão o mesmo erro ao tentar instalar. Alguém sabe como resolver?

Hi all, long time Emby user but first time poster. I love what you have built - thank you. I'm trying to wrap my head around a suitable Emby Server that I can use with the Emby client on my Shield TV. My current configurationis a Shield TV 16GB as both my client and my server with ethernet connection to a Synology DS216SE for file storage. This works ok most of the time but I feel it really really struggles to do both jobs well at the same time. (I get video image distortion issues on all playback. With 4K DD Atmos videos it just chews up the 7GB free internal drive space with temp transcoding files after like 20 minutes of play.) For that reason I would like to upgrade, but I dont want to spend 100s of dollars to something that wont make any difference. I'm currently living on 3GB of storage for my media quite comfortably. My confusion would be around, should I get a NUC or a NAS or another suggestion to run Emby Server on? (Lots of suggestions in other threads on models for those choices, I just dont know which choice to make.) What speed drives/configuration should go in those that would not cause a bottle neck? (Ideally cheap as possible, but I spend more if I am getting a good bang-for-buck value.) Any suggestions here would be great, thanks in advance!

This morning an engineer switched my broadband from BT to Virgin, and since then I have been unable to connect to Synology. I am unable to connect to quickconnect and Synology Assistant says I have a connection failure. The Synology is powered on and connected to my new router, but unfortunately I don't know how to connect to Synology (and by extension accessing Emby) so hoped you may be able to help.

All of my media is stored on a Synology NAS. In fact, I currently have Emby running on my Synology NAS, but the Shield has stronger hardware so I predict running Emby server on the Shield should result in smoother playback of 4k content and transcoded content. But I don't want to spend hours setting up Emby server on a Shield and troubleshooting share connectivity problems if there are already known issues with the Shield reading/writing to NAS shares. Does Android Server running on the Shield have any problem reading from or writing to NAS shares, or are there any workarounds that are necessary for it to work? I really want to avoid using SMBv1 if at all possible.

Title well descriptive. I use Emby Server (4.1.1.0) on my QNAP NAS TS-251b. For all media I tried to watch at 95% approximaticly of the lecture the media stop and I had a black screen instead of the movie. If you want more info please ask me. Thank you for your answer. emby server log.txt emby server full log.txt

Hi guys! So I bought my WD Drive years ago and it has been collecting dust for the last year or so. I want to make use of it now as a media server but I find the WD app as well as plex not really fitting(with Plex it is mostly the premium fees I want to avoid). Emby would be great for that an I wanted to know if someone knows how I get that running on my WdMybook live Any ideas how that could work or is there a better way? Would greatly appreciate any help! My Drive is a MyBook Live from WD

Im running Emby on Unraid. I have a couple network drives mounted to the unraid machine that contains movies and tv shows, one is a synology and the other is a netgear NAS. I'm running into a strange issue where the media on the Netgear readynas is not seen on Emby. It's mounted via SMB and I can map it just just fine so all the media is available (or should be) but for whatever reason none of the movies on the readynas machine are available in Emby (the synology works fine). The issue is isolated to Emby; I can see and use the media on this drive a number of other apps on unraid. I'm new to Emby but I believe this wasn't an issue pre Emby 4 release. Here's the error message posted on the logs; I'm just not sure what to do with it as it says it's not a directory. I can post any other logs if needed. Any guidance would be really appreciated as it's driving me nuts.

I reinstalled Emby on my WD PR2100 with the latest beta version (3.6.0.84) after trying to find the Emby Guide data for live tv. Prior to installing the beta version, I still could not get any channel to play. I am using an HDHomeRun tuner with the premium tv package. I also have an m3u tuner. I set up the guide providers and refreshed the guide data. I am still now able to view any channel. All I get is the endless spinning wheel. One other fact that may be important is I just added a second router behind a Uverse router. All my devices are now connected to the second router and everything seems to be working fine. Plex also runs on the PR2100 and it has no problem playing live tv. I have attached the full server log. I cannot figure out why Emby refuses to play live tv. embyserverlog.txt

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a nas from Qnap (model ts-253BE), but I wanted to know if hardware acceleration is supported by the app. I've read an old thread where users said that it wasn't supported yet, so I was wondering it is now. Also, is the hardware acceleration working with h265 codec, or just h264? Thanks a lot !

Hi Guys and Gals I'm looking into Emby at the moment, I have bought a premium month to test it out. I do very much like the speed of the UI, and the design of it is mostly good. The recognizing of I have a few issues with HW transcoding. Does it work at all? The NAS I'm running it on is a TS-853A, it uses an Intel® Celeron® quad-core 1.6GHz. I can see that it's recommended to use VAApi, but I don't see any help CPU wise in that, it goes straight to 100% CPU utilization when just doing playback. This makes it unusable for me, as the NAS has quite a few other jobs (Virtualization Station) that is quite important. Being a newbie in Emby, I'm not sure where to get any information for you to help me out.

I've been using emby since before it was emby, always been happy with it. I just run the server and client off my desktop computer and watch movies there. I'm finally ready to move into the current century. I want my server to be always on and be able to stream movies the to roku on my tv, or to tablets etc. To this end the system I have in mind is purchasing a NAS and moving my library to it, then purchasing a NUC and putting emby on it (and J River MC). The NAS will be hardwired to my router and send files wirelessly to the NUC, the NUC will then send the movie to the roku and/or tablets wirelessly. The question I have is when purchasing the NAS do I need one that does transcoding? if the server on the NUC is transcoding seems like you want the NAS to just send the file without messing with it. The NAS I have in mind is a synology DS218J (no transcoding) or a synology DS218. The later I would buy just for some future proofing, it has more memory and a better cpu, but it does do transcoding and I don't know if that can be turned off. As for the NUC, no decision yet, just a minimum config of intel I5 and 4 gigs ram. Any experienced suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I've got Emby running in a jailed environment on a XigmaNAS environment with Realtime Library Monitoring enabled and it does not seem to be recognizing any additions. I've got to go to scheduled tasks to trigger it, or wait for the daily / cron to run. If I go on the machine locally and do something it might recognize it, but if I drop the file in the directory via samba connection it does not recognize any changes. Is there another way to trigger the library scan without being logged into the admin area? Like if I want to set it up so someone can drop content into one of the library directories and see it in the library?

Hi guys, I have all my Videos and so on stored at a NAS (which cannt be used as Emby-server), therefore i thought about a workaround with a windows machine as an emby-server in front of the nas (which uses an smb-release to acces my media). Kodi on my shieldtv works great with that smb-path. how are my chances to get this done? Is anybody out there, that uses a similar solution? i´d be glad for every stone of contention

Hi, I just uploaded to my emby server some isos of my DVDs, they are identified in the gallery, but when i click on play, nothing shows up. I'm using the latest version of emby server with all the default emby plugins (so far...) on a synology NAS. Can anyone help Cheers

I'm running Emby server 3.3.1.0 on Synology DS418play with 6GB of RAM (emby server running on mono) The NAS is pretty much stock, I only installed emby server on it. I bought a HDHomerun Quatro few weeks ago. I'm experiencing burst of big glitches in the recordings. At first, I thought the Quatro was defective, so I contacted Silicondust support. They requested that I activate the debug feature in the Quatro. They told me that they see burst of packet loss. It can be fine for several minutes, then a burst of packet loss on a short period and fine again for several minutes. It's worst when recording 4 streams at the same time, but can see sometime burst of packet loss with only 1 stream. On the NAS, I don't see any spike on the CPU (pretty constant at 55% with 4 streams). The volume usage doesn't exceed 12%. The NAS and the HDhomerun are connected to an unmanaged gigabit switch. I changed the ethernet cable and I tried a different switch. No change. I extended the network receive buffers on the NAS (net.core.rmem_max and net.ipv4.tcp_rmem) with no change. I change emby server process priority using renice command to -20. This seems to help, but still see some burst of packet loss. To make sure that the NAS is capable of handling this, I opened 4 ssh sessions with the NAS and started grabbing 4 streams on the quatro at the same time using curl command. I repeat this 3 times. There was no packet loss. So pretty much remove the network out of the equation and the NAS is capable of grabbing 4 streams at the same time. It looks like the packet loss is due to emby server running on the NAS. I don't know what else to do to fix the packet loss issue. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, do you think emby running on netcore instead of mono would help? To my knowledge, the netcore version was not yet release for Synology NAS, right? Attached, emby server logs. 4 recordings at 7am. All suffers from packet loss. Thank you Log.txt

Hello all, I am about to transfer all my media to a dedicated QNAP NAS and run Emby Server on that as well. I currently run my EMBY Server on my windows machine. I am just wondering how I would go about ensuring that all the watched, partially watched episodes etc are copied and displayed correctly in the QNAP NAS? Is it as simple as copying my entire Television folder onto the NAS, and therefore all the watched etc flags are there? Or do I have to do something special? Basically I am wanting to transfer or Migrate all my media and the server functionality to the NAS, but want all history retained. Is that possible? Cheers Mark Sorry guys I just found this, I am guessing it is still relevant? https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Backup

I'm running Emby server with two NAS devices. The older one, a Buffalo linkstation NAS is no longer sharing anything but media titles and some metadata with Emby. The videos won't play and none of the graphics are visible. The NAS is working fine - I can stream videos from it using other media browsers, but Emby just can't see anything regardless of what device I try to stream on. Does anybody have any idea what's going on or how I might fix it?
