richardyu301 3 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Can someone please advise how to move Emby app to another drive? I have backup files already (done under "Backup & Restore). Does it mean I can simply install one new version in the new drive and then restore using the backup file? Are there any other things missing?

richardyu301 3 Posted May 12, 2023 Author Share Posted May 12, 2023 Thank you for the quick response. In fact I only have to move the Emby package app to another drive. No need to move library to another drive. These two posts seem to be about moving library instead. Does it mean that I can simply handle in below way: - uninstall current package - install Emby again in the new drive - run restore to keep existing database / settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardyu301 3 Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 I have uninstalled Emby and reinstalled. Surprisingly I am not asked to set up server name/password info and can still see the libraries. The libraries are empty and I can't find Backup&Restore. And I am not able to locate Backup&Restore in Plugins/Catalog so can't download it too. My doubt is there are remaining settings files so I uninstalled again and tried to delete the folder EmbyServer in /var/packages/. But the folder is no longer available so already deleted upon uninstallation. What should I do now? @Carlo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to start fresh then you'll need to delete the server data folder: https://emby.media/support/articles/Server-Data-Folder.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
