darkkent 0 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi guys, i am new to this, i have 3 Raspberry Pi at home 1 as a server that always stays on, this has my external hard drives plugged in and connected to my network by a Ethernet Powerline. the other 2 raspberry pi's are in my bedroom and living room and link to the hard drives over the network again by Ethernet Powerlines. The problem with this set up is that there are all individual libraries. i did try UPNP a while back but the library was too big and was really slow at loading al the artwork etc. I am running openELEC on all devices although i think i will install libreELEC now as it has Emby built in. My question is, is there a way to instal the Emby Sever onto my Raspberry Pi so this can always stay on? (i can only find how to may a raspberry with kodi a client) i don't really want to install the server on my Mac or home PC as i wouldn't want this to be on all the time, or does it not need to be on? Can i install the server and link the hard drives through the network to it then turn off my PC? Just a little confused about how to work the set up. Any feedback would be awesome - would be nice to get it set up with all the feature Emby offers like watch statuses syncing across all my devices.

How big is your library? I want to make a quick easy to use system for a friend as a gift. I do full on HTPCs for people all the time but this will literally just be to hold movies. I was debating doing a shield tv with plex server on it, but from what I have been reading is plex can't handle a large collection and starts to slow down on that device. Since its a gift I want something that is simple, they just plug it in, and they go. My thought now is raspberry pi with emby server on it that they plug in to their router and never touch it. Then an android device or firetv they use on their TV to access it. No transcoding required but does the server seem to hold up ok? How about say 2,000+ movies?

clarkss12 295 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) I installed the Emby server on my $40 Android box running LibreELEC, which was extremely easy to do, but it ran very slow. I would also be curious how the server ran on the RPi 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FM9AYeoWD4&t=68s Edited March 20, 2017 by clarkss12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkkent 0 Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Hey, just to let you know as you were asking for an update. I've ran into a problem , it may be how I've set up the smb shares. basically in emby server when i am setting up my folders of media it sees a different section of the SD card than you see over the network and on kodi. i.e. in dietpi terminal & emby server external hard drives are mounted to /mnt/3TB_TV, /mnt/2TB_Movies kodi when syncing the emby library when using direct parts is looking for /mnt/3TB_TV etc but not finding these. it seems that under the browser in kodi when looking for smb hard drives its location is different /dietpi/data/3TB_TV the two don't quite link up Thanks for that link i will have a look at that! let me know if anyone know how to get them to see each other kent Edited March 21, 2017 by darkkent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkkent 0 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 also guys not sure if this is normal I've got about 4tb of movies and 5 tb of tv shows and scraping all the meta data has taken a day (24hours)and its only at 42% or a raspberry pi 2 seems abnormally slow as i can scrape that in koi normally in a few hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37009 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Ok, it is scanning everything one at a time. By default Emby server enables several metadata providers, including Omdb, MovieDb, Tvdb, and Fanart. You might consider going into the metadata settings section and turning some of those off. That is basically what the server is doing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkkent 0 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 ah okay! i guessing i can only do this when its not scanning as i can't see the setting there to turn any of them off at the moment also i keep having a problem when integrating my library with kodi it keeps coming up with a error when building the library that it can't find the source for each movie. i'm guessing this is to do with the network credentials? my smb address is smb://LIBREELECSERV/(harddrivename)to my knowledge i haven't set up a username and password. is it asking for the username and password that i log into the embryo dashboard with?
