tdiguy 97 Posted June 10, 2017 Posted June 10, 2017 Are you running raspbian or debian? Either way these instructions are likely to help: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/43166-arm-devices-official-instructions/ Keep in mind, there are several install instructions on that page. The last time i tried to run docker it did not work out not sure if it was something i did wrong or not. The section that i used to install last time was: Installing directly on raspbian or other debian directive without docker (armhf/armv7/aarch64):wget -qO - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:emby/xUbuntu_14.04/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/emby/xUbuntu_14.04/ /' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/emby-server.list" sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install emby-server Hope this helps.

Kitraha 2 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 Hello! I succeeded install emby on raspberry pi 3 (thanks to @tdiguy and @@hurricanehrndz ). But is not working well: the CPU is always at 100%. Emby is very slow and the video player is unstable. I think raspberry pi 3 is not powerful enough for a media center.

Emby is very slow and the video player is unstable. I think raspberry pi 3 is not powerful enough for a media center. Is emby doing anything when the CPU is 100%? I run emby on a pi3 and it only runs at high CPU usage when it is transcoding, which it now normally doesn't have to since I now convert everything to MP4 format. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk Just out of curiosity, are you using it with Kodi? If so, what's normal CPU usage like for you, and what's transcoding CPU usage? Mine's using less than 3% with occasional spikes to the high sevens, with no transcoding.
tdiguy 97 Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 I don't use kodi, never figured out how to get the two to work together. But ya with it not transcoding it normally is pretty low. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Luke 39635 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 @@Kitraha, there is a lot of transcoding happening here and that is the reason for your poor playback experience. The RPI is not suited for video transcoding. Transcoding is happening in the browser because browsers do not support HEVC, which your videos contain. Does this help answer your question? If you limit your playback to formats that don't need video transcoding, you'll get a better experience.
mrbrahman 0 Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Question is not on Raspberry Pi, but related to the info provided above... ... it now normally doesn't have to since I now convert everything to MP4 format. I am playing an mp4 (ripped from my personal DVD) on the latest versions of Firefox and Chrome, and when I play it, I see there an "ffmpeg" process (on Linux where emby-server is installed) which probably means some transcoding is going on. Can someone help understand in what circumstances transcoding will or will not happen?

Can someone help understand in what circumstances transcoding will or will not happen? Easy way to see if it is transcoding is to log onto the server while the movie is playing, on the dashboard it will say who is watching what, if it says direct play its not transcoding. If i remember Luke correctly there are no web browsers currently that support direct play of mp4's. To avoid transcoding you will want to use either an emby app, emby theater or kodi with the emby plugin. I myself have not set up kodi with the emby plugin.
Luke 39635 Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Every browser supports the mp4 container but none currently support HEVC video.

To avoid transcoding you will want to use either an emby app, emby theater or kodi with the emby plugin. I myself have not set up kodi with the emby plugin. The short answer is, the video needs to be supported natively by the browser you're using. If not, then you'll see transcoding. If you would like a more detailed example, then please discuss an example, and then attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. thanks !
