Emby for Kodi 2.3.55 doesn't fail over to external address although it has the information in "data.txt". @@Angelblue05 I'll pm you kodi log and data.txt when access is tried from the external network. This still doesn't fix the problem in the other thread, but is bug (or a new feature :-) ) never the less. Andy777

I have a reverse proxy and am using that to make Emby available remotely at https://sub.domain.XYZ/NotEmby I recently tried to experiment with with Emby on Kodi on my phone, but could not get it to connect remotely at all. I eventually discovered the following workaround that made it work. If I set the server address to "https://sub.domain.XYZ"and the port to "/NotEmby" it connected and worked perfectly. What didn't work was any combination of either the full URL with either http or https and port 80, 443, 0, or 00000. I'm assuming what's throwing this off is my nginx config to make /NotEmby work, but I don't know a better way to do it. rewrite /NotEmby/(.*) /$1 break; Including a port doesn't seem necessary when using a URL and port 80 or 443, so why force it to be set during the configuration?

Please remove Series Pooling, or at the very least make it an Optional Setting

Hello. I've been trying to get this to work and I had to create an account and get help. I've searched all 3 or 4 threads around this topic and I couldn't get it to work. Everything is organized nicely in the Emby Web interface but not on the Kodi add-on. I tried "Perform local database reset" and then "Perform manual sync" but my TV shows spread across different drives are still showing as more than one. "Automatically merge series that are spread across multiple folders" is already checked in Emby Server as well. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Hi I seem to have a problem artist in Kodi the name of the artists says "Missing" However it looks fine in the Emby web GUI. Artist is called "112" they are on TheaudioDB site here. I've tried refreshing their metadata in the Emby server and also refreshing them in Kodi via the Emby options context menu. But still their name / title is missing.

Hello, I'm writing a Kodi addon which limits the number of videos that'll be played in a playlist. I've a Kodi player class, which does something like this : class KodiPlayer(xbmc.Player): playback_count = 0 def __init__ (self): xbmc.Player.__init__(self) self.logger = None def onPlayBackStarted(self, *arg): if self.playback_count >= playlist_max_count: xbmc.Player().stop() def onPlayBackEnded(self, *arg): self.playback_count += 1 The call in onPlayBackStarted to stop playback works, but it has the effect of causing the Emby addon to crash, as below: 22:04:59.883 T:13092 NOTICE: EMBY.ga_client -> ERROR:: XBMC is not playing any videofile Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\ADMIN\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\ga_client.py", line 24, in wrapper return func(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\Users\ADMIN\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\kodimonitor.py", line 76, in onNotification self._on_play_(data) File "C:\Users\ADMIN\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.emby\resources\lib\kodimonitor.py", line 98, in _on_play_ item = xbmc.Player().getVideoInfoTag() RuntimeError: XBMC is not playing any videofile 22:04:59.883 T:13092 NOTICE: EMBY.ga_client -> ERROR:: log_error: onNotification args: (<kodimonitor.KodiMonitor object at 0x12F1B300>, 'xbmc', 'Player.OnPlay', '{"item":{"id":3862,"type":"episode"},"player":{"playerid":1,"speed":1}}') kwargs: {} 22:04:59.883 T:13092 ERROR: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<-- - NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!

Hi, Scenario: I'm new to emby and experiencing some issues with the Kodi addon and transcoding. At home, i have a 4k tv and use the Samsung SmartTV app. But when i'm traveling, i want to use the Kodi Addon on a RPi3. The resolution in the system settings in Kodi is set to 1080p. In the Emby addon, i specified a bitrate of 9.2k. The problem: If i play a 4k video, it gets transcoded to 9.2k but the resolution stays at 4k --> video disturbed. Please find the log of the transcoding session attached. Question: Can i somehow force Emby to transcode to 1080p? Or even better: Is it possible to adapt the transcoding-resolution to the max resolution of the device? thanks in advance, Andy Log.txt

All, Does anyone have idea how change the description that pop up when Kodi connect to Emby Server, I would like to change the notification that appears to something diff. Cheers!

Hi, I've found a bug in the network credentials add wizard. If the username contains a \ because its authenticating against a domain. It doesn't work, I believe it's doing something with the \ I tried, good number of times reentering it. Reopened Kodi, still no luck. I fixed it but going in to the file manager. Adding a new Source, then when it asked for my SMB credentials I said to remember these credentials for this path. Used my domain\user and then I was able to use Kodi. I hope this can be fixed as I took a while for me to think of another way for Kodi to remember my credentials. Jonny Using Kodi 17.2 I would upload logs but using an Android TV box(Nvidea Shield), so not so easy to grab the logs off it. I'm guessing its converting the character to something else

@Angelblue I am having problems with the lastest version of Kodi-Client: Setup: - Emby Server V 3.2.20.0 - Kodi V 17.3 - Krypton - latest Kodi-Client - Addon mode, direct stream music lib Problem: After a fresh install of Kodi and Kodi-Emby-Client I did a initial sync. Under "music"-> "albums" I dont see the tracks of the album. All Albums are empty. If I got to "music" -> "songs" I see all songs with correct metatdata. -> I did a "repair local database (force update all content). After that everthing was ok. I could go to "music" -> "albums" and I had all my tracks in the albums. -> After a restart and automatic sync the tracks within the albums have disappeared again.... very frustrating. -> It happens with 95% of the albums but not with all of them. The sources are all the same format, on the same server etc... no difference. Any Ideas? Here is my log-file: ***removed*** With older versions I never had this problem. Can you provide a link to an older version? Thank you

When prepping to upgrade my Emby server I start by checking the Emby dashboard for active users. If all is silent I need to go into Server:Live TV to see if there are any HDHomeRun tuners that are active (I have six). If there are I need to dig a little deeper to determine if these are held by Emby or some other application. This typically involves leaving the manage server area and go to "Live TV:Recordings" to see if there are any active Emby recordings. After I have validated the server is not in use I can perform an update. It would be extremely convenient to see all Emby activity from the main dashboard. Thanks.

hi, I'm using xonfluence but I think this might be an issue that affects other people. I did look up this issue and the only thing I found was not applying to this situation. so if I go to Video Addons > Emby > Movies > Recently Added Movies, for whatever reason every time I watch something and the "Watched" flag is set it removes it from the list. I can go into the web client and toggle the watched and I can see it keep getting added and removed from that list. in my web display settings its set NOT to hide watched items from Recently added, but as far as I can tell it's something happening in the addon not my skin as if I move to the folder settings "hide watched" is unchecked and checking it does nothing. i guess what i could do is setup a custom playlist, but it seems like that's something that's not supposed to be happening. EDIT: its also happening for TV Shows episodes as well, when i do even the widgets the ones set to plugin://plugin.video.emby/?id={LibraryName}&mode=recentepisodes&limit=25 i think this might be a server thing since i dont think this was happening before the latest update, but i cant be sure.

well i am a newbie for; both for kodi and emby; couple of weeks for most.. in fact; trying to learn how this set up works.. i got 3 emby servers 2 at different isps and one at home.. and 2 kodi connected to emby as ADDON of course with different profiles... one is emby premiere.paid-the one at home.. not the other ones..! . i have decided; as result my inspection.. a-emby is the best library tool of best of any type of scraping... at this sense. kodi sucks what can i say; youre the best.. b-i choose to use kodi as a playback device..since emby theater is not mature enough! AND kodi rulesss..without a payment for each server..or playback device.. tha it have to buy premiere for each server.... ! it is a little bit unfair.. the problem is that; when it is a movie .no problem..! but when iti is MUSİC: and i am using EMBY music database enabled at KODİ.. when it is mp3 or flac.. no REMOTE control works when i DO choose kodi.. as a PLAYER and ADDon.. but when i choose DLNA ..the same PC and the same KODİ İT works just fine..! WHY..!? regards!

Please remove auto-organize from Emby Server and have it as a plugin, this way users who want this feature can choose to have it.

I'm accesing the folder thru inputs and notices when accessing the emby folder, than the movies folder. Once accessing the list it will reboot the tv, it switches off and back on. My second lg smart tv works fine, what could be the issues that causing the other lg to reboot?

As the Topic Title states, it would be a nice addition if Recordings that are currently in-progress would be displayed in the Dashboard view. I have killed a few Recordings by restarting the Server without realizing that recording activity was happening at the time. It would be nice if under ACTIVE DEVICES in the dashboard view that there was an ACTIVE RECORDINGS section.

My system setup is in my signature. When playing music through Kodi the artist fanart and song have always shown in the "Active Devices" box on the server. Today I realized this was no longer the case. Tonight, when I played music in Kodi, nothing showed up in the "Active Devices" box. Kodi showed as connected and any video I played, showed in the box. The last proof (cross-referencing with Last.FM and Emby Recently Played) of it working is from Jun 23. Since that date, I was out of the house for a week (not using Kodi) and when I returned I updated to Kodi 17.3 (from 16.1). I cannot remember if I played music through Kodi prior to the 17.3 update or not. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Whenever you select option from the main menu, the web client defaults to the first tab ie under movie it goes to suggested...under TV and channels it goes to latest etc Can each one remember which tab was selected so that if I have shows selected under TV and I go to movies and back to TV it will still have the shows tab selected rather than going back to latest? I hope you understand what I mean?

If there haven't been any changes, the scan should do virtually nothing so, unless your entire library is undergoing lots of changes all the time, then this shouldn't have much effect. Once everything has been scanned in and properly analyzed the first time, subsequent scans should be pretty insignificant.
