Alternative311 1 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Hey Guys, So we tend to watch local news at night 11pm est. When it starts we setup a sleep timer for hour later. I happen to open the Web, and noticed below. It also filled up my Transcode folder 1tb SSD. Any tips on how to stop this once the Roku releases the session? Let me know which Log to upload, the day it started the session or the day I killed the session? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Happy2Play 8140 Posted September 3, 2021 Solution Share Posted September 3, 2021 Yes this is a known issue for Rokus, if you do not back out of the stream there is no stop command sent to the server. Have you enable "Are you still watching" on the client yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you enable "Are you still watching" on the client yet? Yes, we let it kill the session or select to keep watching. Good to know, so kill the session before going to sleep.

It does stop the session, if we don't select anything while the TV is on. Once the TV turns off, I am assuming it does not come back, then keeps the session open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4328 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 If the TV is off the client can't prompt you. Curious, how are you starting the news? Do you start it from the channels menu or from the guide entry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8140 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 So powering off the TV is no different then hitting the Home button on the remote. The server has no idea the client is no longer active and you have a rogue session that runs until you notice it or run out of drive space. @LukeI thought there was something server side to catch this rogue session? @ebr @speechles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36881 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Yes there is. This should be resolved for the next release of Emby Server. Thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
