Noticed install issues.

 

If you have been fiddling with a couple of version you may notice it doesn't uninstall and hangs the package center. I've had to reboot the NAS then manually go in and remove the emby folder.

 

If you uninstall emby you have to reboot the NAS as the port for Emby stays open and the installer will not proceed.

 

You have to run the Emby Wizard after installing the spk file from cytec. If you update before running it, the dropdown boxes do not work can you cant configure Emby. You then have to uninstall --> reboot --> install again.

Pre-installation

 

Add http://packages.synocommunity.com/ and http://cytec.us/spk/ to Package center -->Package Source (make sure Yes, I want to see beta version! is ticked in Beta Tab and Any Publisher in General)

 

Check the what CPU/architecture you have in your synology https://github.com/S...r-Synology-mode

 

Installation

  • Install Mono from Package center --> Community Tab
  • ...

     

Thanks for making this Forum Section and for this post. I have one question? Wouldn't this copying thing be possible to be done by the start script of the Synology package?

So by starting the package, the script is anyway called to start emby, so it could do also the update of the files before starting. Update handling could be done within the Emby interface. If updates are configured, then the corresponding mono.zip (stable/dev/beta or whatever) should be downloaded. If the startscript finds thos downloaded mono.zip it will update the files. So at least on Intel Synos we would always have an up to date emby server. Maybe you could contact cytec regarding this idea for the synology side...

 

Just an Idea :) What you think?

I do have a Synology 412+ that has the cedarview architecture. But i'm missing the cedarview FFMPEG package. The other FFMPEG package I was able to find didn't meed the requirements from the package sadly enough. Can someone compile FFMPEG for cedarview? 

 

**EDIT**

Nevermind, i didn't saw the x64 package :)

 

Progress

So far it seems to be working but I had about 4 crashes while it was scanning the library. It just stopped the process. Found some logs in the directory. I'll post them here.

we support two image processors - image magick (preferred), or libgdiplus (fallback). in your case, they both failed to load.

In Australia I have seen issues with some repository locations I had to add the google 8.8.8.8 to the secondary dns in the Synology network config (primary being your router)

then refresh a few times to get list.

I had to use https instead of http (https://cytec.us/spk/).

 

Bino, never thought of that :lol:

Just a quick one.  

 

You also need to change the 'Trust Level' too, kept saying the packaged had no signature  ;)

 

 

:(

 

Argument cannot be null. Parameter name: ConnectServerId

 

keep getting this under 'Tell us about yourself'

Just want to say thanks to all those involved with this, I've been running 3.0.5597.1 for the past few weeks with no issues.

 

I've only just this week upgraded to the current stable version 3.0.5641.5 and apart from two issues (which I'm not sure are specific to synology yet or not) everything works perfectly!!

 

Edit: when upgrading to the current stable I did have to manually edit the ImageMagickSharp.dll.config file to point to Q16 and not Q08...

Anything specific I have to do? I have the image magick package installed.

And I see references above about editing a config file to get the thumbnails to work? I do have it working on my PC but I prefer to run it on my NAS. 

 

Edit

Thanks to the jaspalgill reference I was able to find the file and edit the config file so it could find the correct file, and now image thumbs are working.

At this point (till there is a new build) you need to edit /volume1/@appstore/emby/chare/emby/ImageMagicSharp.dll.config

Change th Q8 to Q16

 

<configuration>
  <dllmap dll="CORE_RL_Wand_.dll" target="libMagickWand-6.Q16.so" os="linux"/>
  <dllmap dll="CORE_RL_Wand_.dll" target="libMagickWand-6.so" os="freebsd,openbsd,netbsd"/>
  <dllmap dll="CORE_RL_Wand_.dll" target="./MediaInfo/osx/libmediainfo.dylib" os="osx"/>

Is the ArmadaXP (DS414) supported? I can't find neither ImageMagick nor Emby for it.

I Just installed Emby on my DS2014Play (evansport) with the above instructions.

 

I had to go in and modify the dependencies for ImageMagic and Media Info from = specific version to >= specific version 

 

but beside this, every thing seems to work fine.

 

THANK YOU!

  1. ImageMagick doesn't show up there and I can't find the .spk file on Synocommunity. I've checked on SynoCommunity site and ArmadaXP is supported, so I don't know why I can't see it. I've already deleted and added back SynoCommunity from the sources.
  2. When trying to install it an error shows up because I miss ImageMagick (obviously) and MediaInfo 0.7.72-1 (I have 0.7.73-2 installed). Is the MediaInfo dependency hardcoded to 0.7.72-1 or this is just an error I get because I miss the other package?

@Schreini

Did you have to edit the pkg file itself? I have a DS1812+ so I do not know about these other versions. Can you post what you did/instruction so others can replicate thanks.

Running EMBY for Docker  on Xpenology with DSM 5.2 and it works amazingly. USB TV Tuner and everything.

Was waiting for the Emby synology package but no point now that Docker is enabled in the latest release.
