Luke Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 FreeBSD 13 package has been added to our website Self explanatory. Package extensions changed from txz to pkg On a one-time basis this will cause your server to not be aware that an update is available, but it will correct itself after you've installed the new pkg. Dependency list has changed We're now requiring the mono6.8 package instead of the older mono package. Emby Runs on TrueNAS Scale This is not BSD related, but our Docker package works great on TrueNAS scale. We're investigating if our debian packages can also be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Thanks! I've rebuilt my emby jail on TrueNAS 12.0-U5 and will see if this fixes some of the issues I was having with 4.6.4.0. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 26 Author Share Posted January 26 Starting with the 4.7.0.21 beta releases, we've switched over to the .NET core runtime 6.0. That means there's no longer any dependency on the mono runtime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) If I create a new jail for 4.7.0.21 and mount the 4.6.7.0 emby-server folder will I need to roll it back if I need to switch back to running 4.6.7.0? Missing libunwind dependancy when following instructions on website, but added that (pkg install libunwind) and it seemed to install OK. I'm struggling to get it to connect - ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED, - even though emby-server is running in the jail No time to try and investigate now, but will take another look at the weekend.

riccote Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I am also not able to connect after upgrading to 4.7.0.21. I upgraded from 4.7.0.20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alucryd Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 You also need icu, openssl and krb5 for the server to work with dotnet core, install instructions will be updated shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 pkg install openssl krb5 and then allow_mlock checked in the Jail Settings and it's running for me now. Haven't tried mounting my previous config and libraries yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Updated install instructions will be up shortly: https://emby.media/freebsd-server.html https://emby.media/truenas-server.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) I thought this version replaced mono with .NET? The .json file looks like it's still installing mono? It's probably also worth pointing out that this approach creates a plugin, which might not be what people are expecting. Creating a manual jail using the FreeBSD instructions would still be my recommended route. Seems to be working well though, so thanks! What are the advantages of .NET over mono? I'm guessing it brings it into line with the other versions, but should it perform better than mono? Edited January 29 by adrianwi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riccote Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Did the pkg install openssl krb5 and then allow_mlock. Working beter than it ever has in a manual jail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Yeah, I followed the FreeBSD instructions and created the jail myself and so far so good. Overall it feels a little more responsive, although it's talking longer to load cover images when scrolling up and down large libraries and the library scan seemed a lot slower.

Luke Posted January 30 Author Share Posted January 30 Quote Overall it feels a little more responsive, It will most definitely be more responsive with the move to the .NET core runtime and dropping mono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 Is everyone all set now with being able to run the beta server? We've finally moved BSD off of mono and onto the .net core runtime, so the server should be lighter on it's feet than it's ever been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianwi Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Yes, it's certainly using less resources and in most cases seems more responsive than the stable release running mono. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
