Hey guys can anyone help me? I have 5 libraries on my server that's located on my Nvidia Shield, I'm using two external hard drives, but one of my libraries suddenly stopped updating when adding new files. I went to the "alert" tab on server configurations and there is a message saind "Library Media Scan Failed". I'll paste the info in that message bellow. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, it seems with the last couple of betas of Emby for Kodi my Kodi library now no longer auto/background updates/syncs. My Nvidia Shield is always left on with Kodi running (sleep/shutdown disabled). My NAS is also always on and media files are regularly auto copied to the monitored Library folders within Emby. It was previously working in the past with the Kodi library updating almost instantly when Emby was updated with new content. The Emby web interface does appear to update in real time whenever new files are added, but Kodi now no longer auto/background updates/syncs the library - unless a user initiated manual sync or Kodi itself is manually restarted. Whenever a new Beta version of Emby for Kodi is updated, I always do a manual entire library reset on Kodi to ensure the local database has the newest updates. As this issue recently started happening, I just performed a complete uninstall of Kodi on my Nvidia Shield and re-installed and re-setup Emby for Kodi Beta on Kodi Jarvis 16.0 Beta 5 (in case something was corrupted on my setup). Unfortunately this did not resolve the issue as auto/background library updates/syncing still are not occurring. My setup: Emby Linux Mono Version 3.0.5785.0 (running on Asustor AS 7010T x64 running latest v2.5.1 linux firmware) Emby for Kodi Sync Queue on Emby Server version 1.0.5782.13378 Emby for Kodi Beta 1.1.72 Kodi Jarvis 16.0 Beta 5 for Android (running on Nvidia Shield Android TV v2.1) Vanilla Kodi install, running standard Confluence skin with only a couple of simple other addins: Oz Weather, HD Homerun & Multicam (view security cameras) plugins Wired ethernet network The below two media files were recently updated in the Emby Library. They appeared on the Emby web interface immediately, however they did not auto/background update/sync to the Kodi library until I manually restarted Kodi and it performed its standard startup scan: The Fifth Element (1997).m2ts was changed around 2016-01-15 10:39 Heroes Reborn_S01E12_Company Woman.mkv was changed around 2016-01-15 12:05 Logs: No auto/background library updates/sync Kodi log during the time these files were added: http://xbmclogs.com/prvxsh9na Emby Server Log during the time these files were added: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hjjrakm70brk3w5/server-63588426305.txt?dl=0 After Kodi restart Logs: Kodi manually restarted and Emby for Kodi Beta performed the startup scan & then detected new these files: http://xbmclogs.com/p0obfwkhg Emby Server Log during the time Kodi was restarted and startup scan ran: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qo4js18nf9evbur/server-63588426305-post-restart.txt?dl=0 Thanks for your help and let me know if you need any further information.

I've recently updated to the latest Emby Server on OSX and after some difficulty with the install and re-install, I finally got everything working. Now a new problem has come up... Every time a new title is added to the library and a sync is performed, the new title will not play. I've tried playing from the actual server itself, as well as remotely with the same results. I just end up with a blank screen after I hot the green arrow on the title screen. The only way to get everything to work again is to install an older version of Emby and then perform the manual update. This method can be a little time consuming... does anyone have this similar issue and/or have any suggestions? Thanks, Cory
