embyforkodi (next-gen) 7.X.X support

[quickmic 1347]

@Seger @DarWun

Can you please perform another test with this version. It should actually fix the issue, not just ignore them. But please confirm a init sync is working before I upload it again, thanks. Also keep an eye on Kodi bookmarks (Emby chapters) if there is something odd.

@quickmicI just updated to 7.10.1-build 10 from 7.9.3. I am still seeing a "Recovering from playback error" under streaming on the dashboard for an episode that had previously streamed without issue an 7.9.3. There is also a red progress line under the green playback indicator, which normally indicates buffering for transcoding (I think). That does not occur using 7.9.3.

I've attached both the Kod and the Embyserver logs capturing the playback attempt.

Edited to add: This is what the Emby dashboard shows when streaming the same episode using E4K 7.9.3.

Interesting, this actually means, direct playback was not possible so the plugin started a hls stream. The red bar is the buffer status on Emby server for hls stream. The hls stream looking good, but question is why not playing directly.

What kind of content are you playing? A regular file or an external (internet) stream?

Is it synced or dynamic content?

 

EDIT:

I think I found the reason. It's a http HEAD request issue. I'll fix it in next version. btw, according to my review it must be remote content, can you confirm that?

Emby and media are located on a Synology NAS. Media is being played using E4K installed in LibreElec 10.3 on a Rpi4. I'm accessing the Emby dashboard on my PC. All devices are connected through my home LAN.

Interesting, Emby reported (when syncing libraries) a "remote" content or a bug in the plugin sync code. I'll review the plugin sync code again.

Try this version: Remote content should be fixed, no matter why it's reported. Btw, no need to resync databases.

Just for the sake of good order, since I cached all the images during the day today, here's a log with a debug version.

It looks clean, but I noticed one piece of information that comes up from time to time: 

INFO <general>: EMBY.database.dbio: ---< DBCloseRW: texture / 2000 / artwork_cache rows updated on db close
WARNING <general>: EMBY.helper.utils: getFreeSpace: module 'os' has no attribute 'statvfs'

Yep that's normal, Windows does not allow the statvfs (freespace) API query -> HDD space cannot be detected. No need to worry.

Everything seems good with this test build so far. I added Movie, TV, and Music libraries on a database reset (was upgrading from 7.9.3 to 7.10.1 so reset was forced). I'll post back once I've added some episodes to confirm that the syncing between Emby and E4K is working with the Music library added.

Thanks!!!

Check the Emby server metadata manager if it's actually assigned.

I found out that the error is coming from imdb, so removed it in the list of scan....

Can confirm that syncing between Emby and E4K is working with the Music library added after updating to 7.10.1-build 15. Thanks again!!!

https://codeload.github.com/MediaBrowser/plugin.video.emby/zip/refs/tags/7.10.2

Can please somebody perform a test (init sync) under Windows and under Android before I upload and officially announce it. Thanks.

Installed it in an existing installation. I was told to log in again immediately, no wizard to guide me through, just a popup "add all libraries" which I cancelled as they were all already added. Will now reset the database and set everything up again. another log will follow.

Thanks, yes the login message is ok. I changed the way the Server login/wizard works. No need to worry. It's a one time only question. I'll post the changelog as soon I know the init/repair sync is working.

 

btw, log looks fine so far, also please try playing content.

have reset the database, all worked cleanly. Then restarted and added all libraries, it does not start. this is the log. after a restart, the process is then started, this is currently running, the log follows shortly.kodi.log

Ok, I see a small issue, should be fine after restart.

[Seger 110]

so, the libraries are added, that all worked. The start of individual episodes or films starts, but is a little delayed (not always).

it always syncs something after a restart, although there should be nothing new.

Yes, that's fine. Actually the progress bar is new, but the plugin does it always on Kodi start (even on all other old version). Only the users are informed about that now.

It queries Emby server IF there are data available to sync. Maybe I should relabel it, it's a check not an actual sync at this time.

I checked all logs, they looks absolutely perfect beside the one after reset. As mentioned a minor issue, nothing to worry. The database was already wiped and one worker tried to query data. I'll fix it in next version, but not a showstopper. Database scheme will be verified on each plugin start.

Just not posted yet on the first page. I also wait for an Android test.

das meine ich was bei jedem Neustart einmal durchläuft:

Für mich sieht es so aus, als ob es diese als die nächsten Folgen überprüft. Können Sie nicht verhindern, dass es angezeigt wird?

Danke, wie immer sehr gute Arbeit!
