astraaa 0 Posted July 13 Posted July 13 I downloaded the Emby server, and the app and I also paid for a month for Emby Premiere and the code worked. The only problem is that I can't view any shows or movies. I only see the library files i created and nothing else. I can't see any movies or shows of any kind please someone help me fix asap.
pwhodges 1933 Posted July 13 Posted July 13 Well, what movies and shows are in the directories you have provided for those libraries? For a start, show us the folder structure and some file names, and maybe we can find something wrong. Paul
astraaa 0 Posted July 13 Author Posted July 13 (edited) @pwhodgesHello, thank you for replying. Sorry this is my first time ever using Emby so I'm a bit confused about it. Here is my library and I'm not sure if I need to add movies in the library and if I do I'm not sure how to. [Edit] - The files have nothing inside them they're just files I'm not sure if i did something wrong. Edited July 13 by astraaa
Happy2Play 9644 Posted July 13 Posted July 13 Those paths should be to where you have your media. Quote Emby is NOT a media streaming service. We provide no content. Emby is a Personal Media Server platform. You must have your own server installed and your own media (or Live TV tuner). Please DO NOT purchase one of these items unless you are using your own server that you installed. 1
astraaa 0 Posted July 13 Author Posted July 13 @Happy2PlayThank you for replying as well. Could you please clarify more about media? How do I start watching movies and shows etc. I'm confused on how to use this and I've tried searching on youtube videos and other steps and still couldn't figure out.

Do you have your own media/content? Emby will only display your content that you provide it via your library folders. https://emby.media/support/articles/Movie-Naming.html https://emby.media/support/articles/TV-Naming.html example

But I have a friend that can watch many types of movies and shows. So would I need to name the movie and the year as a file inside the movie files for me to see the actual movie on the app? I'm sorry this is all new and confusing to me Edited July 13 by astraaa

So you have to have all your own media or connect to someone else's server to view their content. That is why I posted the quote from Emby Premiere page. Quote Emby is NOT a media streaming service. We provide no content. Emby is a Personal Media Server platform.

Is there a way I could refund my 1 month purchase?
