MediaInfo For Emby Plugin(HDR, Vision, Atmos, DTS:X)

[FrostByte 5049]

How did you install the tools?  Did you install them from SynoCommunity?

Here are the paths.   They are in appstore, not appdata

/volume1/@appstore/mediainfo/bin/mediainfo
/volume1/@appstore/mkvtoolnix/bin/mkvpropedit

For your information: I've installed one HDD (1x16TB Seagate) on my synology System.

This is volume1. Maybe thats important.

Ok its working fine for that movie

 

But for the other movies, its not working

 

 

Do i have to configure something else?

I did a new Scan of the complete libary and startet the task mediatoolbox manually but no luck

thank you

Ok i think i found the issue. If i remove the movies, step by step from the database, do a rescan, and add the removed movies to the database again, the mediainfo plugin is working

This is interesting, I have seen this kind of weird text in the "Video:" section before. Mediainfo would fail to scan these files.

I solved it by completely removing all metadata saved within the folder, using TinyMediaManager to create new metadata, scanning the Emby library one more time and finally running Mediainfo again.

Sorry, didn't keep track of which files. I just remember removing all saved metadata and did a re-scan which solved the issue. I will pay attention from now on, if I come across one again, will share right away!

That’s great and appreciate it. It’s a constant learning and tweaking road with the mediaInfo side. But we should get there

glad you are all sorted fella

I have now created a shell script to run with "emby" docker container, you can find it here: https://github.com/MrLinford/Docker-MediaInfo-PreReq

 

Here is my quick guide on how to install the dependencies for Media Toolbox when running EMBY in a Docker Container.

A few notes:

You must be running the https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-emby container

You will have to reinstall the dependencies when a new docker image is used.

# **MediaInfo For Emby running in Docker**

**A few notes:**

You must be running the https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-emby container

You will have to reinstall the dependencies when a new docker image is used.

---

**First you need to connect to the emby container:**

`docker exec -it <container> bash`

---

**Install mediainfo (https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo/Download/Ubuntu):**

`apt update`

`apt-get install mediainfo`

---

**Install mkvtoolnix (https://mkvtoolnix.download/downloads.html#ubuntu):**

`curl -o /usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg https://mkvtoolnix.download/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg`

`cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d`

`touch mkvtoolnix.download.list`

`cat > mkvtoolnix.download.list << EOF
deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/ubuntu/ jammy main
deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/ubuntu/ jammy main
EOF`

Now run `apt update` followed by `apt install mkvtoolnix=70.0.0-0~ubuntu2204bunkus01 mkvtoolnix-gui=70.0.0-0~ubuntu2204bunkus01`



---

**Download BifTool Executables:**

`curl -Lo /tmp/biftool_linux.zip https://github.com/rokudev/samples/raw/master/utilities/bif%20tool/biftool_linux.zip`

**Installed unzip:**

`apt-get install unzip`


**Extract BifTool zip file to /bin/:**

`unzip /tmp/biftool_linux.zip -d /bin`

---

Configure the Media Toolbox plugin, applications installed will be located in `/bin/`

Updated Docker instructions as new version of mkvtoolnix is out 71, but not support by you yet.

So change `apt install mkvtoolnix mkvtoolnix-gui` to `apt install mkvtoolnix=70.0.0-0~ubuntu2204bunkus01 mkvtoolnix-gui=70.0.0-0~ubuntu2204bunkus01`

and it wont be because it's not been tested and there was a huge bug in that release.

Really appreciate your contribution MrLindford

Updated - thanks - this is key as v71 corrupts some MKV's ...

Bummer I am using the https://registry.hub.docker.com/r/emby/embyserver/ beta on Unraid and apparently that is not built on ubuntu and the commands are not the same.

Just FYI, this will not work for the official Emby container...still, the LinuxServer container has a great reputation and is widely used.  Thanks @MrLinford!

Not sure what the official emby container is built on. But you can always switch.

Given some of the headaches recently experienced by the LSIO team with missing artifacts for the beta builds (from what I understand, this is an issue with Emby itself), I'll probably wait until that gets sorted.
