Meyaez 5 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Hello, I saw that there is a new version (4.6.7.0) but the documentation on how to install it is confusing. I found this page for FreeBSD but that will install a beta version. If I go to https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases (which also took a while to find from the internet) I see the version emby-server-freebsd12_4.6.7.0_amd64.pkg listed for FreeBSD 12 which is what I'm running. My question is, how does the update process work? Inside the Emby jail, do I simply type pkg add -f https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.6.7.0/emby-server-freebsd12_4.6.7.0_amd64.pkg sysrc emby_server_enable="YES" service emby-server start and that's it? My installation is not the plug-in. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmantyu 3 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Will not work. If You want functioning Emby Server use simple pkg install -f emby-server This will update to latest Emby Server from Freebsd repository catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Quote but the documentation on how to install it is confusing. How did you originally install Emby Server? There are mulitple options on FreeBSD, so however you originally installed, just do that again with the new version over the top. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

Does that mean that using a command other that the one I used when I installed Emby will break the server? I think I used the command in my OP but I'm not sure, that's why I was asking.
