Hi Emby RUNNING = Emby Theater 3.0.15 / Server = 4.6.7.0 All of a sudden I'm having flakey Emby issues where the player simply crashes to a blank screen, and I also get lots of "playback errors no compatible streams" and also the playback screen (first image below) is missing details like image, info etc. When I try to rewind on the progress bar it dumps me out sometimes and I need to restart the video. Just to be clear, these are videos I've played successfully for years so this is all of a sudden. Did a recent update get put out that might be causing this? It's been flakey for about a week and it was rock solid for a long time. Cheers Rob

I thought this deserves it's own post I will share this, I notice that if I have any content in Unset (mixed content) the MOVIE SERVER is much slower, so I change the content to MOVIES and all fast again, MIGHT want to debug the Unset (Mixed Content) FYI I also noticed when I removed Unset(mixed Content) even my Music folder load way faster even when im running a full scan everything is fast so I see issues with Unset(mixed cintent) ??

I finally had enough today and I'm going to stop using Emby and switch to Plex full-time because Emby has become ludicrously buggy. When I go into my Emby server on my Windows 7 computer the message "An Error Has Occurred" has become the norm rather than something that happens on rare occasions. Emby refuses to populate information for some movies, musical artists or musical albums, cannot find artwork for items where the server itself located database information for the album or movies, gives error messages nearly every time I click browse artwork forcing me to download it manually from Google. I wasted 7 hours yesterday adding covers to albums where Emby found the Musicbrainz info itself but still wouldn't populate any information. I would try to update and either get the spinning circle forever or get an error message because Emby couldn't communicate with the server. This happened not once or twice but every single time and this has been the case for a while. I was manually adding album info and artwork for a while but after hours I ran out of patience and switched to just adding album covers. Maybe I'll try Emby again in a few months to see if it actually works like it's supposed to but for now I'm switching to Plex full-time because when I add music and movies I can just play play them without wasting hours trying to get everything to display properly for the Roku app.
