thejacer87 9 Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 We have instructions for beta on the website: https://emby.media/download.html The stable release is right around the corner so you can also just wait for that. Thanks. does around the corner mean now? lol. cuz i believe my server just updated to 3.1.0.0... and now i have some other problems . also the original file that started this thread still cant be watched on my phone. so lately some of my kids' shows on the ipad ios app are having trouble with playback. and if/when it can load the show, the playback timer says "live broadcast" instead of the time and allowing me to scroll Archive.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37134 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 If you look at the media info on the detail screen, does it display a known runtime? if not, then that's why it might show as a live broadcast. Is this brand new content added to the server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this brand new content added to the server? im not sure exactly where to look for the know runtime, but definitely NOT new media. its so weird, it's just a cartoon, not a hug file/bitrate. i tried watching the same episodes on my android phone and didnt work either. tried some other movies on both my android phone and ipad. ipad couldnt play some and the phone would. so possibly my phone can play more files so it doesnt need transcoding. i know my cpu is a piece of shit, but rather annoying that for whatever reason it wont play some select files, that were definitely playable before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37134 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Hi @@thejacer87, on the detail screen you can see if it has a known runtime or not. Additionally you can scroll to the bottom and see if it has media info listed or not. If it does not, then try refreshing it from the detail screen using the dot menu -> refresh.

thejacer87 9 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 k ya the runtime is missing. is there a way to refresh meta data for all media, seems to be an issue with a lot of files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37134 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 k ya the runtime is missing. is there a way to refresh meta data for all media, seems to be an issue with a lot of files Yes, but first can you verify that a single refresh resolves the issue? thanks !

Luke 37134 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Can you please provide the emby server log from the time of the refresh? probably an issue with your ffmpeg/ffprobe build. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejacer87 9 Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) k that probably makes sense since ive been messing with ffmpeg (just what ive stated in this thread). and that is the right timeline when i noticed this issue.still have the original issue that this thread was created for: 'Huge CPU spike on the server' but maybe this all comes down to getting the right ffmpeg in place. although you mentioned earlier that i do have the right version, so i dunno what is the best way to manage ffmpeg on debian/OMV Log.txt Edited December 22, 2016 by thejacer87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejacer87 9 Posted December 25, 2016 Author Share Posted December 25, 2016 (edited) Can you please provide the emby server log from the time of the refresh? probably an issue with your ffmpeg/ffprobe build. thanks. been a while since you responded, perhaps you didnt get notified bcuz i didnt quote you? also i tried a fresh ffmpeg/ffprobe from https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/. but it's 3.2 which i think u said was untested. i can't find the 3.1 build anywhere also, i do have a couple nvidia gpus if that could help alleviate some of the stress on the system Edited December 26, 2016 by thejacer87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37134 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 hi @@thejacer87, based on your log in post #34, that appears to be an issue in the server itself. So that's a little more easily correctable but i'm wondering if you can hop on the beta channel so that we can work together on this. What distro are you using?

OMV (debian), but i am using the emby server from apt and NOT the OMV plugin, as I was having quite a few issues with that. Just lemme know how/where to get the beta going!!

Luke 37134 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 In that case just follow the instructions on the website to install the beta package https://emby.media/download.html It should install over the top of your existing install.

Luke 37134 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Thanks. it probably just didn't complete before you refreshed the page. Yes you can do it from there. Unfortunately there is currently no way to monitor the progress at this time, so just give it a couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K @@Luke you beautiful man, i can now watch the movie on my phone that started this thread. the CPU still is pretty high but i think that makes sense since its a big file and its gotta transcode it for the android app. is there a guide of some sorts to getting the gpu acceleration going? like i mentioned b4, i have a couple gpus lying around that i could use to help out. i just would need to know what to look for and if i would need some special drivers? or if OMV would even have them?

Luke 37134 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 yes we have experimental gpu options under the Transcoding menu in the server dashboard. but they are just experimental and may require you to bring your own ffmpeg build that supports the features.
