Chromecast refuses to connect to server if used first on a different OS
Garterbelt posted a topic in General/Windows
I recently set up Emby on my PC running Linux so that my mom could easily watch stuff on her Chromecast, and it worked great. I use both Windows and Linux (specifically Pop Os) and today I booted up Windows and configured Emby there too. Everything seemed to be working fine until my mom told me she was unable to get Emby working on her Chromecast (stuck on "Ready to Cast"), which seemed weird because I tried it on mine and worked perfectly. After trying several times, restarting, opening ports, etc., I just decided to try booting the server on Linux, and her Chromecast works now! The only problem is that mine doesn't anymore, so it seems like once a Chromecast connects to an Emby server, if you switch to a different OS and run another server it will refuse to play files. Hope I can get this fixed because it'd be very frustrating if I have to switch to a different OS every time someone wants to use the server. -
Quick question that might have a quick response. After setting up a new server, I noticed that whenever I run the "download subtitles" task it always takes over 2 hours. I thought it was normal at first since it was starting from scratch. But it's been a month and it's still taking just as long. When I opened up the log, I did notice a few errors, but I'm completely unfamiliar with it, so I do need some help deciphering it please. I believe the log includes the two times I ran it today. I'm pretty sure this question will come up, but I did sign into my Open Subtitles account (Free account, not VIP) on the dashboard. Here is a link to my log: https://filebin.net/fxsw3xneaqthg1wj/embyserver.txt?t=zt4ilqlz Definitely let me know if I can clarify anything! Thank you as always!

Hi guys, Loving the work you’ve done. Is there any update on the discussion around the subtitle delay setting? My subs are fine, they play correctly in VLC locally. But when I cast to my tv, all subs play ahead of audio by 4 or 5 seconds. If anyone has any input that’d be appreciated too. But yeah keen to hear what’s happening with the prospect of subtitle delay settings. Thanks.

Hi, A few weeks ago, I renamed all my content according to the convention. I also renamed my moves with the right version (4k/hdr/1080p/x265) at the end. Here's an example: /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR.mkv I've also setup to automatically make a low quality x264 copy for devices that doesn't support hevc or for LTE streaming. I used the "Mobile" Profile at 4Mbps Since then, the conversion took the file but added " -mobile" at the end of it instead of removing whatever is after the Hyphen. Ex: /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR - mobile.mkv instead of: /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - mobile.mkv Then, it proceeded to also make a copy and transcode the new file. Now my directory looks like this: /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR.mkv /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR - mobile.mkv /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR - mobile - mobile.mkv /Movies/Fury (2014)/Fury (2014) - 4K x265 HDR - mobile - mobile - mobile.mkv etc. I'm not sure what I did wrong or what logs you need, let me know and I'll edit this post.

I have been running Emby Server 4.3 using a HP computer running Windows for several months. I plan on using the NVidia Shield as a server and migrating the libraries/ collections/ favourites/ users data etc across. I still would like to keep the library content itself on the HP computer and have NVidia Shield libraries point to the HP machine. I was able to successfully install the server on the NVidia Shield and copy my library. 1. I have an issue with setting up the new folder paths I have tried to follow the "Optional Network Path" guide on your site but still can't get the server to find the folders. My content is stored locally on the HP computer. Existing Setup: Machine Name: HP Drive Name: DRIVE1 (Located On F:) Library Structured As follows: DRIVE1\MOVIES\... DRIVE1\TV\... Existing Movies Library: F:\DRIVE1\MOVIES Existing TV Library: F:\DRIVE1\TV New Setup: I created a shared folder for MOVIES to test. \\HP\DRIVE1\MOVIES (Network path) Emby Library Settings: I tried several things including the following: Folder: Network (Optional) Shared network folder: \\HP\DRIVE1\MOVIES I also tried: Folder: F:\DRIVE1 (Optional) Shared network folder: \\HP\DRIVE1\MOVIES Each time I get the error cannot find path. Can you please advise the correct paths I need to setup. Thanks 2. Is there a way I can permanently disable automatic scans of library. Ideally set into manual scans only. Until I can successfully redirect the existing library paths. As they are cause my existing data to be cleared. 3. At the moment the I have only been able to migrate to the Shields Internal storage which is very limited in size. I have attached an usb stick. And tried to redirect cache, metadata and transcode paths to locations on the stick. A) Do these locations have to located in the auto created folder "NVIDIA_SHIELD". As android is very restrictive as to what folders can be written to. For Example NVIDIA_SHIELD\EMBY\cache NVIDIA_SHIELD\EMBY\metadata NVIDIA_SHIELD\EMBY\transcode b: I was able to copy the folders and adjust the paths inside Emby in order to point to the usb folders. In order to complete the process do I simply just delete the folders from internal storage? I assume Emby doesn't have a library migration functionality like Plex? C) Log files location can't be set so do these automatically delete after a set time or do I need to do this manually. Thanks for your assistance

Hello. Thanks everyone, very much for your ideas to take Linux Emby and try it out under Windows. I did not have much luck and I think I'll I'll stick with running it under Mint. Bj

Hi, I'm having trouble playing media from my Synology DS218+ NAS, but only certain videos and only on my desktop computer. The same files works without a hitch on my iPad and my Android phone. The server is available for browsing, just not playback. I've tried in the latest Chrome and Firefox. Strangely the only media that doesn't want to play is The Walking Dead season 10, previous seasons have worked fine. So it looks like there is some problem with those specific files, but that doesn't explain why they work on the other devices. The files are .mkv. To complicate matters I can't access the server log. When going to /logs I get the following error message "Unable to find the specified file." I'm unable to get the logs via my Synology since the Emby Server menu item only links to the Emby server URL. I'm using port forwarding to access my server from the outside, and I've changed the default port to avoid the server being obvious. No problems reaching it from other devices, but when going to the same URL on the desktop it is not available, I have to reach it by going to the 192.168.1.x IP address. The same problem occurs whether or not I use a VPN. Related? Still this doesn't explain why certain media works and others not. /K

Good Afternoon All. My installation of Emby 4.3.1.0 has been solid for months but what is weird when a movie fails to be identified I simply choose 'Identify' enter the search and the correct information including picture is found and I then select replace and click ok and it usually updates and changes everything. But at the moment it goes through the motions but the image/data is still staying as the original information. I am failing to get it ti successfully update with the correct information it has found. Any ideas? Regards, Stuart

as seen in the above picture, these thumbnails for libraries which are auto generated are not perfect. How to trigger them to auto generate the thumbnail again.

Hey guys, I am currently having an issue with audio playback while streaming over an internet browser. I tested it on Opera, Chrome, Firefox and Edge, it is all the same. My problem is that I get no audio in some episodes of a show e.g. The Mandalorian season 1 episode 4-8. When I start watching these I have absolutely no audio, but when I exit the playback and again start it at a different point in the episode the audio works fine. The strange thing is that this does not happen for episodes 1-3. They just work fine. Also this issue does not occur when I download the episodes and watch them with e.g. VLC player, neither do they make any problems with the Emby app for Android or iOS. I saw a thread where the same problem was solved with disabling Intel QuickSync but as this issue also occurs on AMD machines I do not assume it is the same solution for me aswell. I rotated the server logs, watched an episode that works fine and then watched an episode that has these issues. The files are attached. Thank you for your support. FFMPEG Log.txt Emby Log.txt

I saw lots of posts in Google and here about that but for normal drive... I use Elementary OS 5.1(bases on Ubuntu 18.04) Thank you for any help, all is welcome.

Is there a way to show more of 100 items (complete list) by library in the WebUI?
Riggs posted a topic in General/Windows
Hi. The question is on the title, i look into the forum and can't find anything... sorry if it is in another post. "Is there a way to show more of 100 items (the complete library) in the WebUI?" I mean in ONE page I ask because my libraries are made by categories according my needs. Example Action-Thriller, Action Violence, Romance, Drama,, Animation, etc. (I just have movies at this moment) But I have more than 100 items for each one and is not handy when i'm working in the cover arts in the second page Thanks in advance.

Subtitles not working Fire Stick, Windows 10, emby 4.3.1.0
davidomck posted a topic in Android TV / Fire TV
The subtitles are not working during playback and not automatically downloading like i think they are supposed to be since I have signed up for Open Subtitles. And even when I download the exact subtitles for my video file, I cannot make them display. There is not the option to select the subtitles even when I place them in the same folder video file. They used to work ok, until about the time I updated to 4.3.1.0. -
Emby Theater: add additional shortcut keys for Channel change and User switching
Red5ive posted a topic in Feature Requests
As there are apparently no keyboard or remote keys for being able to change channel (as mentioned by Luke on this thread: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/79408-what-are-the-keyboard-shorcuts/ ) Can I please request that these be added as a matter of urgency. Theater for windows/xbox does not have a guide overlay and without being able to use channel up and down buttons means you have to back out of the stream, back to the guide and then select a channel from there and wait for it to start. Basic 'feature' that any set-top box should have is a up/down channel button. Whilst you are there can a shortcut be made to quickly switch users, or at least bring up the settings strip menu you normally get when you navigate and click your profile picture. At the moment to switch user you have to have a minimum of 5-6 click of a remote or keyboard to be bale to navigate there. -
hey all, I am a bit confused... As far as I know I should be able to just run the backup tool in Windows and then run it in the arch installation and then it should "magically" work, right? this have not been the case with my installation, I can literally not see the libraries even tho the paths are correct. I need to know how to get emby working again. Right now i cannot see media files in any of the libraries when looking through them, not even the metadata tool shows anything. I have tried several browser (opera and firefox, tried both in private mode as well) so it got nothing to do with cache/cookies. example picture from opera: I am on the latest build of emby available for my distro which is 4.3.0.30. I ran sudo pacman -Ssy emby Result I got from that: :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date multilib is up to date community/emby-server 4.3.0.30-1 [installed] Bring together your videos, music, photos, and live television I am attaching embyserver.txt if you require any other log from emby server I shall conjure it into existence for you helping folks. I tried to create new libraries, and it works, it is just that the already existing ones does not work, and I really would like try to avoid to recreate them, thank you It is 2am when typing this, I am sorry for any spelling mistakes, if you need any clarification, ask away! Thank you for taking your time reading through this and trying to help me with my trouble. have a nice day! embyserver.txt Edit: Added embyserver.txt logfile

For inf, I have solved an issue with .ts format files recorded from broadcasts and saved on a NAS, played through emby on a Windows 10 pc to a chromecast. I set up hardware acceleration using an Nvidia card but only direct play happened, which stuttered and then failed. Solution was to transfer files and library pointers to the pc, after which the Nvidia kicked in. Hope that helps someone. Much better for recording than Plex, btw.

Hi, Can we have more options in filtering like directed by, writer, producer, cast, tags? Also I don't see any value addition in having video and audio codec filtering in client apps (thinking as a layman user). Also can I edit the filter system by my own provided I have some technical and coding skills?

Hi all, Hopefully someone has experienced the below and knows how to fix it - or it's a bug that can be fixed! Specs: Emby Server 4.1.1.0 running on Windows Server 2016 Chromecast Gen1 running latest firmware Chromecast Gen2 running latest firmware Samsung Galaxy A50 running Android 9 and the latest Emby Android app iPhone 6 running latest iOS and the latest Emby iOS app All devices are connected to the same router/access point and are being accessed over the local network Emby is working fine when playing off of any of the mobile devices, and it works from any device when casting to the Chromecast Gen1, however when trying to cast to the Chromecast Gen2 it brings up the splash screen 'Welcome to Emby - Select Emby Media from your device' - then when pressing play on any media it simply does nothing, when disconnecting from Chromecast and playing the same media on the phone - or on the other Chromecast - it works fine This wasn't caused by the 4.1.1.0 upgrade as it definitely worked after that, but I can't be sure exactly when it started. I found the following from my logs around the time I try to play to the Chromecast: 2019-05-29 23:13:18.848 Error PortMapper: Error creating port map *** Error Report *** Version: 4.1.1.0 Command line: C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system\EmbyServer.dll -service Operating system: Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0 64-Bit OS: True 64-Bit Process: True User Interactive: True Runtime: file:///C:/Users/Administrator/AppData/Roaming/Emby-Server/system/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Program data path: C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server Application directory: C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: InternalServerError at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsyncInternal(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsync(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Mono.Nat.Upnp.UpnpNatDevice.CreatePortMap(Mapping mapping) at Emby.PortMapper.ExternalPortForwarding.CreateRules(INatDevice device) Source: Emby.Server.Implementations TargetSite: Void MoveNext() Any help or advice is appreciated - pretty much ripping my hair out trying to figure out why it's not working!

Hello everyone, first post here so if anything should be edited just tell me. Anyway, I am running emby on a Manjaro linux machine, everything has been working out of the box until now. I am watching an episode of a series I already watched tons of episodes on emby without any problem, and suddenly the media reproduction stops towards the end. If I reload the episode it will keep stopping around the same time. Other episodes seem to be fine for now. I attach the log embyserver.txt, it seems to be an error with starting ffmpeg, but I don't really see the reason as everything has been working ok until now. I have seen some other older posts with similar issue and I tried reloading the whole series, rescanning the library each time, but nothing changed. Hope you can help, thanks in advance! UPDATE I managed to watch some other episodes and also some films, the problem happens suddenly towards the end of some apparently random episodes of just this series. It might have something to do with the files themselves but I cannot understand what since they all come from the same source. Log log-ffmpeg.txt

I just installed Emby yesterday after having stability issues with Plex liveTV. Setup is with a Hauppauge dual channel USB tuner connected to a Microsoft Surface. Everything was working great with liveTV so setup the DVR to record some shows. At 8pm both Chicago Med and Survivor started recording. When I checked the status of the recordings around 10:20pm I found that Chicago Med was only a partial recording of a minute 47 seconds. I looked at the log file and didn't see any errors, just that the recording stopped. Not sure what other logs to look at. From the server log the recording was started with the correct length, set it to record 1 minute additional after show end: 2019-11-20 20:00:07.507 Info LiveTV: Will record to E:\Emby\Chicago Med (2015)\Season 5\Chicago Med S05E09 I Can't Imagine the Future.ts for 60.874883375 minutes. Here is where is stops, but no errors that I can see. 2019-11-20 20:01:56.690 Info LiveTV: Recording completed to file E:\Emby\Chicago Med (2015)\Season 5\Chicago Med S05E09 I Can't Imagine the Future.ts 2019-11-20 20:01:56.690 Info LiveTV: Recording completed: E:\Emby\Chicago Med (2015)\Season 5\Chicago Med S05E09 I Can't Imagine the Future.ts 2019-11-20 20:01:56.690 Info MediaSourceManager: Live stream native_d8f0e8fc2bd98bf03584443fee3c1cc0_0f257e7cb95191e9932ee3294d0bfcdf consumer count is now 0 2019-11-20 20:01:56.690 Info MediaSourceManager: Closing live stream I checked the transcode file, attached, and didn't see any errors there either. Any help/guidance on what additional log files to look at?
