Ranse 3 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Hello, I am trying to use Folder Sync to back up my media from Emby Debian server to Debian client ( using the app). In download settings , I've chosen the original quality, but for some reason it keeps going to "converting" and then tries to start transfer which takes really long time. Any suggestions ? Thank you.

Luke 37251 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 HI, original quality and original file are two different things. If all you want to do is copy files, then make sure to select original file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a "Movies" folder in library, which is mostly 1080p mkv . Not a single file. I am trying to back up Movies folder from library to an external usb HDD on a client.

Chances are, the answer will apply to all of them. So please provide one specific example along with the corresponding emby server log of when that example was converted. Thanks.

Ranse 3 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 Tried one movie , it says it was downloaded But after checking the client , the file is not there embyserver(1).txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37251 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Have we moved onto a different topic now? Is that not related to folder sync? What app did you download it with? What makes you think the file is not there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think the file is not there? No we did not , just following your directions. Same situation (app server, everything is as described above), instead of full library, I have added one movie to download to "movies-copy" . I can see the file is not there on Client Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37251 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 OK well the server log does not contain any mention of black rain so it doesn't appear to be the right log file. Are you sure this is the log file from when it was processed? If you're not sure, then I would do the same thing with a different file and then provide the emby server log. Thanks.
