ISO does not mount

[SirataXero 0]

Hello,

 

I'm very new at this so please pardon my ignorance. I have my brand new emby Windows server installation up and running, all of my videos work, except for my BluRay ISO collection. About 90% of my video collection is in BluRay ISO format so I really need this to work. The library scans it, pulls all the information, and everything seems to work. Only playing the file doesn't work (I'm using the web browser player as well as the Android application). When I hit play, The browser only shows the movie splash screen but nothing happens. On my Windows system tray, I can see the small pismo file mount icon show up. Mousing over the icon says "0 mounted files".

 

I then went into Windows folder and manually mounted my ISO file through pismo mount commands in terminal. This converts the ISO file into a directory structure in Windows which, a library rescan in Emby, makes the video show up. I can then play the video through the browser and through the Android application. However, I have to manually mount and unmount the file through Pismo.

 

Is there anyway to automate this process or fix/check what the issue is?

 

Thanks!

does the web interface display any media info?

 

be warned that even once this iso mounting is solved, we still consider the ability to do this experimental, so even once we get past this, iso's are always going to be hit or miss when using server streaming. they'll be fine in the htpc apps where the video players are built to handle them.

Hey  Luke,

 

Thanks for responding. The metadata for all the ISOs shows up correctly, and every single one of them is identified. However, more testing has shown that your comment about "hit or miss" is pretty accurate. I have a huge variety of different ISOs, all which have been ripped the same exact way. However, half of them work and half of them don't. It really is hit or miss. I'm trying to identify a pattern in what works and what doesn't but there really doesn't seem to be.

 

I wasn't aware that this ability was experimental. That being said, for when it does work, it works PERFECTLY. The quality is fantastic and the speed of transcoding and sending the video (to the Android app) is second only to locally mounting the ISO and playing it directly.

 

I guess I'll just live with whichever disc seems to be working and which one doesn't.

 

Side note: The one pattern I did find is that NONE of the recent slew of Marvel movies seem to work. I have everything from Iron Man 1 to Avengers 2. None of these movies work at all. It may have something to do with the publisher of the discs.

 

Anyway, thanks for your input!

generally i think when a movie is made of a single m2ts that's when it will have better success. when it has multiple m2ts we're trying to pull off some magic to stitch them together and that's when it doesn't work as well. same goes for dvd's with vob files.

I am having this same issue. It seems that MBS is not mounting the iso at all. It shows the same "0 mounted files" that Sirata is experiencing.
