If you get a debug log when it should skip a commercial and send it to me, I'll have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzicman0 59 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I must be doing something wrong. I enabled debug logs, then played the video, then turned debug logs off, but I don't see a debug log in the logs section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richt 73 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I've had random failures in the past IF the folder in the library had an "(Optional) Shared network folder" specified. Seems that Emby had trouble keeping track of the EDL file in that scenario. Additionally, you appear to be using nfs shares. Not sure if that will have an impact as I've never tried them with Emby, but use SMB for all my shares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzicman0 59 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Yes, I think I might know what is going on. It relates to the fact that the API will ALWAYS return the network share path instead of what is on the local server. Since I don't have access to the NFS share from the server, that is why it is failing. I am going to look into adding NFS to the server (it's Windows, but I think it is an option). If that doesn't work, then I might have to change to SMB, but that will require updating a few scripts I have running, so I really don't want to do that if I don't have to.

muzicman0 59 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Yep, that was it. When I reverted back to SMB, it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a screenshot showing the edl file does in fact exist! embyserver.txt 107.13 kB · 0 downloads Yeah you nailed it. The problem is likely that the plugin cannot open that file on the share. I've never tried to do that. Could be a permissions thing, or could be just a limitation of plugins.I have no way of testing it. If anyone uses the EDL file this way please chime in. Otherwise it's open source so someone who has a network drive can debug it. Edited January 31 by BillOatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzicman0 59 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 at least last time I looked into it for a script that I wrote, there was no way to work around it. The API will always return the network path if it is configured. So the only option is to make the configured network path available on the Emby server. Since I used NFS, it wasn't really possible, so I swapped back to UNC paths, and it now works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muzicman0 59 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I tried to make that work at first, but it didn't seem to want to work. I was trying nfs://xx.xx.xx.xx, so maybe that was it, but if it was, then it still wouldn't work for the plugin since it is specifying the path as nfs://x.x.x.x. In any case, it seems to be working now that I swapped everything over to SMB. I am not sure why I even tried NFS to begin with. I switched a few years ago for some reason, but not sure why.

Problem found, now how to fix it. I want my emby interface in French. From the looks of it, the plugin dev would need to move the culture setting from the Run method to the ReadEdlFile method. I think the Run method is getting called once when Emby starts up, then Emby changes the setting at some point after that. By the time someone's watching something, the setting is 'wrong'. The plugin may need to start setting the culture back to what Emby wants art the end of its edl processing too. This is all just my best guess though.
