Statick 9 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) I just upgraded my synology emby from 4.7.14 to 4.8.3 the library scan has now started deleting occurances of "folder.jpg" from within home video libraries I've set these icons myself because there's no scraper that will download such things for home videos, and the ones I've set look nicer than the random contents that emby chooses for a thumbnail when there's no folder.jpg given. so it's pretty annoying to watch them start disappearing, and random folder contents to be appearing on thumbnails instead of the things I've set up this was not happening before the update Edited March 14 by Statick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37272 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Hi, what makes you think the server is deleting your image files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statick 9 Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 (edited) the files are disappearing as emby does automated library scans (watching for file changes and I copied a bunch of files into the library) I shut emby down and the files stop disappearing, it'll be shut down for a couple of hours and no more files disappear I start emby up again, I'm still copying files into the library so presumably it starts another automated library scan, and within minutes a couple more files have disappeared. I shut it down again and no more files disappear there may be something more going on though, I've also found Emby eating up 3GB of RAM on a 6GB system, causing the whole system to become very slow and unresponsive until I shut down emby. something about the library scan is causing it to eat up RAM, it seems to be okay for about an hour and then it maxes out the RAM. this also never used to happen before the update, today has been a whole bunch of instability tbh Edited March 14 by Statick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statick 9 Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 I've disabled automated scans and all these problems seem to have gone away. running manual library scan is giving no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statick 9 Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 I think something went wrong with the upgrade process, I uninstalled and reinstalled clean and I haven't seen any problems since 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
