Unable to Watch TV

[omerome 4]

I have installed ServerWMC version 1.0.0.58 build 1199 on my HTPC and I have Emby version 3.0.5724.3 installed on my FreeNAS server.

 

When I click on the Live TV tab on the left side of the dashboard, it seems to recognize everything properly like below:

 

 

Also when I go to try and watch a live tv feed, it shows all of the channels and guide information on the interface like below:

 

 

However, when I click on "play" after selecting a channel, the only thing I get is a spinning (loading icon) and I am unable to watch anything.

 

I am including my log file if this helps.

Please post the serverwmc log after you try to watch a tv channel.  See the debug tab in the serverwmc window to find the log file.

Okay here it is.

 

Thanks.

 

ServerWMC.log

Try changing the value Timeout_WaitForTS_MS in the serverwmc settings file.  You can get to this file also in the the debug tab.  Try changing it to:

 

  <Timeout_WaitForTS_MS>20000</Timeout_WaitForTS_MS>

 

then same the file and restart serverwmc.

I changed the value in the settings file to 20000, saved the file, and restarted ServerWMC, but I am getting the same issue.

Can you post the new log again, after you try top view a channel?

[omerome 4]

Here you go.

I looks like emby can't open the linux mounted path to the recorded tv folder, example:

/media/Recorded TV/TempSWMC/LiveTV_Emby^emby_1^2_Digital Cable_3_2015_09_05_13_07_27.ts

 

Instead try this, in serverwmc go to the http service page and check:

  Use URLs instead of smb/unc...  ... for Emby-Server

[omerome 4]

Thank you very much! That did it.

 

By going to the Http Service tab and clicking on "Use URLs instead of smb/unc ... for Emby-Server I can now watch TV!

 

I also deleted the entry "/media/Recorded TV" under the "settings" of the Linux 'Recorded TV' path: for the ServerWMC plugin section under Emby since all of the recorded media is not stored on the FreeNAS machine, but on my HTPC.
