Luke 37151 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Team,We’ve released another patch release. This one will start as a beta and hopefully move along to stable by the end of the week. There is one important fix and a few new improvements.Fixed: Roku crash when playing content with a runtime longer than 2 hours Thanks to the community members who helped track this one down. You can read more about this issue here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/27511-roku-reboots-when-starting-playback/ Improved Chrome Transcoding This is a very exciting improvement that dramatically reduces cpu utilization when transcoding with Chrome. If your source content is h264, and certain conditions are met, you’ll now enjoy the original video stream as-is, without any conversion except for the audio track. Internal Web Client Improvements This is the main reason we’re starting this release as a beta. Although you won’t notice very many visual changes, the web client has been getting revamped under the covers and you’ll notice faster browsing performance all throughout. Please report any issues you come across and we’ll resolve them as quickly as we can. Linux Package Improvements We’ll have a separate post about this, but our linux packages are seeing a lot of improvements as well. Notably: Added support for openSUSE Tumbleweed and Leap Beta and Dev releases are now using the package embymagick for ImageMagick libraries. embymagick does not get installed as a system library, so there should no longer be conflicts with distribution releases of ImageMagick. New restart wrapper script, in order to alleviate some of the issues posted by users. Sudoers file has been updated, restart permission have been moved to the group emby rather than the user emby. Emby-Server start wrapper script ensures user running emby-server is part of emby group, and thus are granted restart permission. Support RPI 1 thanks to openSUSE ARM factory. Please see the following: https://en.opensuse….org/Portal:ARM AARCH64 will be supported as soon as there is a release from the mono team. Used mono aot (ahead of time compiler) to hopefully increase performance. Debian maintainer post install script are set to ignore home of user emby, use default configuration file and etc conf file rather than /etc/passwd to determine were user settings should be kept. Special thanks goes to fc7, hurricanehrndz and all their awesome work and to any and all users who have taken the time to report issues and have had the patience to work with us as we get them addressed. Docker users please stay tuned for a major update that is under works. There will also be more clear documentation for installing on the RPI and other arm devices. In terms of ARM support, on Debian distro we only support armv7l and those binaries can be found in our xUbuntu_14.04 repo. Are You Strong with HTML, JavaScript and NodeJS? I am looking for someone on the advanced side who can work with me directly on new Emby projects. Please contact me if you’re interested in contributing.
