gebhard 3 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Hi, I've installed my first Emby server a few days ago (FreeNAS Plugin, version 3.0.5781.8). Yesterday I've upgraded to Premiere (Lifetime) to support the great application and to enable some features. I'd like to get podcasts via Emby so I installed the plugin "Podcasts" version 1.0.5810.30134. I can see it under Plugins -> My Plugins I was able to add a podcast using the settings menu of Podcasts. Now I want to configure additional things, e.g. the storage location. As far as I could google, the settings would be done in Plugins -> Channels. But there is no Podcast entry showing up, only "Preferred internet stream quality:". I've already restarted the server but haven't noticed any change. Any idea how to debug or what went wrong? Many thanks in advance Cheers, Gebhard
ebr 15647 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Storage location for what? The podcasts will be direct-streamed from their source.
gebhard 3 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Posted January 5, 2016 hmmm ... ok, I'm looking for a possibility to download and store podcasts ... and access them later btw: the configured podcast doesn't show up in the library.
gebhard 3 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Posted January 5, 2016 I referred to the 2nd scrennshot in this post: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/24007-unable-to-update-media-path/?fromsearch=1
ebr 15647 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 The system has changed since that post. We don't download channel content.
gebhard 3 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Posted January 6, 2016 this is very unfortunate because it was one of the reasons going for Emby and paying for it ... any possibility to issue a feature request? but why isn't any content appearing in the podcast channel, any idea how to debug this? thanks
Luke 39995 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Please navigate to podcasts, then provide the server log: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/
gebhard 3 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Posted January 6, 2016 Thanks for the fast reply, will do so this evening. Cheers
gebhard 3 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Posted January 6, 2016 Hi, please find attached some screenshots and the server log starting 6 p.m. today. Thanks for looking into this! Cheers, Gebhard Log extract.7z
Luke 39995 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I've pushed an update to the plugin, and your feed now works fine in my testing. Once you have that, please try again, thanks.
hoxtonia 46 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Just to add I too miss the capability of downloading podcasts and storing locally......there is a download channel plugin - would be fantastic if the podcast plug in supported it....
gebhard 3 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Posted January 8, 2016 just FYI (not complaining): I'm not yet being offered a newer version of the podcast plugin ... I'll try it and post the result when I was able to update.
gebhard 3 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Posted January 8, 2016 I still have and still being offered for d/l 1.0.5810.30134 ... just have tried an hour ago
Luke 39995 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Ok, try restarting the server. In this new release I changed the way the plugin list is getting downloaded. There might still be something that needs to be adjusted.
Luke 39995 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Nevermind, try again. I see the issue. The plugin was marked as requiring server version 3.0.5783.0, which you might not have yet. So I reduced the required server version in order to expose it to you.
gebhard 3 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Posted January 8, 2016 thanks, will try this evening and let you know cheers!
gebhard 3 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 Hi, sorry for the late reply, but I wanted to provide the logs also ... Still not working, errors and logs attached. Server: 3.0.5781.8 Podcast: 1.0.5849.25596 Channel Downloader: 1.0.5810.30068 Thanks, Gebhard Log.7z
ebr 15647 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Could it be a problem with the actual feed? Have you tried some feeds that are known to work with the plug-in like Ted Talks?
Luke 39995 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I think the fact that it works for me and not you points to time-zone related when it comes to parsing the dates. We will look at this when we can but this one might need a little time. Thanks.
gebhard 3 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 Hi, thanks for your replies. I can switch time zone of my FreeNAS system temporarily for testing if it helps ... Furthermore if you send me concrete URLs for podcasts I'm more than happy to test them, too. Cheers, Gebhard
Luke 39995 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 it's either timezone or locale-related. since my locale is english, it's able to successfully parse your file.
gebhard 3 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 these are my settings, see screenshots
gebhard 3 Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Hi, just FTR: an updated version of the Emby plugin for FreeNAS has become available in the meantime to I'm now on version Version 3.0.5785.0 I've restarted the system but I can't see any difference. But I wanted to make sure to keep the thread up to date Cheers, Gebhard
