[BUG] Server crashed after DELETE request

[tvinhas 13]

Hi,

 

This morning I was watching a show recorded with x264 with MKV on my Nvidia Shield TV. After I finished the show, I asked the Emby app to delete the media, and it crashed the server badly.

Here is the exception from the logs:

Hi, this is a crash in the mono runtime that's happening in a way we can't catch and recover from. To prevent this from happening, go to Library setup and turn off the realtime monitor. thanks.

[tvinhas 13]

Ok, thanks. I did that.

 

Another thing I'm noticing, is that images go missing from the shows, like in the image bellow. Any idea how to prevent that?

 

[Luke 37067]

Please attach the complete emby server log and i can take a look at that, thanks.

[tvinhas 13]

Here it is.

emby-logs.tar.gz

[tvinhas 13]

I have the following options enabled on my library:

 

Download artwork and metadata from the internet

Download images in advance

Enable chapter image extraction

Extract chapter images during the library scan

 

I'm not sure if those are the best options, so let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. 

[Luke 37067]

There is a lot of logs in there. Which one is from the timeframe in which you pullled up the web app? thanks.

[tvinhas 13]

The most recent one. This is happening right now and I just got the logs.

[tvinhas 13]

It's also happening in the Manager's dashboard

 

[tvinhas 13]

And when using Emby Theater 

 

[Luke 37067]

Try deleting the folder /var/lib/emby-server/cache/omdb

 

then run a library scan. it looks like you have some bad data in there somehow. thanks.

[tvinhas 13]

Just figured what happened, it was pretty stupid. Full disk because a live recording from yesterday (Charlie Brown Christmas) went to /var/lib/emby-server/data/livetv/recordings instead of my TV Shows library .  :-P

 

Is there any way I define when I schedule a recording, which library the recording is going to? I used to do that with Plex, so I had Sesame Street episodes going to my Kids library.

[Luke 37067]

You mean on each individual recording?

[tvinhas 13]

You mean on each individual recording?

 

Yes. Whenever I was scheduling a entire recurring series record, or individual episode or movie, I'd like to specify to which library it would go, instead of having some specials going to the automatically generated Recordings library, like happened yesterday with Charlie Brown Christmas.

[Luke 37067]

Yea this is something i've been meaning to add, the ability to customize per recording.

[tvinhas 13]

Yea this is something i've been meaning to add, the ability to customize per recording.

 

That would be totally awesome. Whenever I remove the Recordings library, it gets re-created. Is there any way to prevent that?

[Luke 37067]

Whatever path your recordings are configured to download to will be an Emby library, there is no avoiding that. so no, no way.

[tvinhas 13]

And how do I specify a different path for the Recordings library? I've edited it and changed from /var/lib/emby-server/data/livetv/recordings to /dvr/Recordings, but than a Recordings1 library was created.

[Luke 37067]

Have you explored Live TV settings in the server dashboard? I'm only asking that way because if you don't already know the answer, then we're the ones who have done something wrong. Th

[tvinhas 13]

I did, but honestly I've never saw the Default recording path option before. Thanks!
