Yokai 0 Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 So I fixed it, but I don't know *why* it worked which is annoying. (But better than not fixing it!) The Ubuntu "disks" app allows manual settings of the mount commands rather than auto. I just had it mount configured manually (I took of "nosuid" but that ended up not being needed.) When I mounted it that way, it just worked. I was planning to chown and chmod the thing but didn't have too.
Yokai 0 Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Again, you have to make sure the user running the emby server can traverse the entire path, not just the directory containing the media files. If the user is emby then it has to be able to access all of the sub-directories in the path starting from /media. Not write privs but r and x for the directories and r for the files. There are many ways you could do this. One is to add emby to the group that has access if it's the same for all of the content on the external drive or another is to run chmod -R o+rX /media (that's an upper case x) to give file and directory read access to everyone. I agree. There was some sort of permission thing not working. I need to play with it a bit to figure out what the issue was... or maybe I'll just watch a movie. :-)

hooray4me 52 Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 we love the Halloween theme... suggestion: change the css styling for all the orange buttons to have the text color black. The white letter are impossible to see easily at a distance

Luke 40068 Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 Hello, unfortunately I can't seem to get emby server working tonight - can't even access the server dashboard. I know Lubuntu did some updates this afternoon, which may or not be related, but I didn't pay much attention to what they were. I've tried restarting from command line, as well as rebooting the whole PC, but still no luck. Any advice please before I do a complete uninstall/reinstall (which I'd rather avoid!) ? Recent logs attached, thanks in advance. What exactly happens?

weble 16 Posted November 7, 2019 Posted November 7, 2019 FYI ----I posted this in the hardware accel testing forum, but its prob better served here--- just upgraded to ubuntu 19.10, looks like the group permissions needed for emby to see the /dev/dri/render D128 for hardware transcoding changed to render from video. I just added emby to that group and shes good to go. here is what ls -la looks like in /dev/dri/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 100 Nov 7 16:29 . drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4640 Nov 7 16:29 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 Nov 7 16:29 by-path crw-rw----+ 1 root video 226, 0 Nov 7 16:29 card0 crw-rw----+ 1 root render 226, 128 Nov 7 16:29 renderD128

Luke 40068 Posted November 8, 2019 Author Posted November 8, 2019 After a bit of googling I've managed to resolve my issue by removing (renaming) library.db , and all working fine now, so no further action required. Thank you for your time anyway Thanks. Going forward I would suggest opening a new topic and attaching your server log. Chances are it could have resolved in a much less destructive way than deleting your library database. Glad you're all set now. 2
Don66 0 Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Could I possibly get your server info so i can connect my emby? I'd really appreciate it if you would let me. Thank you

Thank you Hi @@Don66, you need to setup your own Emby Server so that you can stream your personal media. I would suggest checking out our Quick Start guide: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Quick-start
xxAmigoxx 3 Posted December 5, 2019 Posted December 5, 2019 There is no sound unless I force it to transcode, using ubuntu server/ emby latest 4.3
Luke 40068 Posted December 8, 2019 Author Posted December 8, 2019 There is no sound unless I force it to transcode, using ubuntu server/ emby latest 4.3 Yea looks like we're allowing mp2 to direct play when it should transcode. It is resolved for the next release. Thanks.
akarpych 7 Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Hello, my friend! I run the server on Ubuntu, everything works fine, but the server only works on HTTP port 8096. The configuration has an HTTPS port installed, and the server does not start on it. Can you tell me where to look for the problem?

Luke 40068 Posted February 21, 2020 Author Posted February 21, 2020 I attributed the certificate, but the server did not start on https. And without a registered certificate on the local network, it also does not appear on https ... This is expected behavior, it sounds like you're expecting otherwise? To use https you need to setup an SSL certifiicate. Regarding the server not starting, please see how to report a problem and we're happy to help. Thanks.
akarpych 7 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) An ssl certificate is required even on a local network? even if I don’t have a tick on the permission of remote access? Edited February 21, 2020 by akarpych
