Mossop 2 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I set up a download of one season of a show. The season contains 52 episodes but although my phone says it is fully downloaded only about 45 episodes are there. Looking at the list of downloaded items you can see that episodes 15, 16, 19, 21, 22 in this chunk alone are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi there, are you sure you have those episodes? Maybe you checked the option to only download unwatched? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have those episodes. All of the episodes are already watched so if I had chosen to only download unwatched nothing would have downloaded. In the end while trying to debug a different issue I ended up reinstalling and starting the download again and this time they came through.

Luke 37060 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear this is all good now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossop 2 Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 I think that just means the problem is intermittent somehow. I happen to have reinstalled again the other day and now that I look one of the seasons I downloaded since is missing one episode. The episode definitely exists and is playable on the server.

Hi, how are you able to play it if it's missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am connected to the network either in the android app or using the web app I can play the episode. But when going to the downloads in the android app when offline the episode is missing.

Luke 37060 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 @Mossop are you still having an issue with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossop 2 Posted September 9, 2022 Author Share Posted September 9, 2022 Yes I constantly find that collections or seasons I have set to download are missing things. I just spotted that my download of my MCU collection which contains 32 movies had only downloaded 24 onto the phone and claimed to be done. It seems that other than manually downloading individual items downloads on Emby are very unreliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossop 2 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 Just as an example I tried to download a movie collection over the past few days. The collection contains 32 movies. Between each attempt I had to completely re-install Emby and format my SD card as Emby didn't seem to clean up removed downloads correctly. It took me I think four attempts to finally get all of the movies downloaded, on all the previous attempt it claimed to be complete but items were simply missing from the list downloaded with seemingly no way to pick them up. In one case it only downloaded 24 of the movies. Downloads were configured at 4Mbps and to automatically download new content. After I finally got the collection to complete I added a download of a playlist with 35 movies in it. This morning it claimed to be completed (though I had to keep going to edit the download and save to convince it to carry on downloading things) and I find that there are only 32 movies listed in the download. I've still been unable to find logs for the Android app, there is nothing shown in `/Android/data/com.mb.android/files`. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossop 2 Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 This morning I woke up to check on the status of my downloads. The playlist that claimed to have downloaded 32 movies now shows 0 items and sure enough they are no longer available in the downloads section of the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Hi @Mossop what version of the server and Emby Android app? Are you still having an issue with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been whatever the latest version of the server and app was. But I've given up on Emby now as it is too unreliable for my needs.

notla49285 46 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Just give up with Emby for Android downloads, they've been crap for years and still are to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I've gone through all of this and I believe all of the options discussed here work just fine in the latest versions of the server and app. Thanks.
