Can you run dpkg -i on the deb directly and post what it says?

 

root@ReadyNAS:/tmp# dpkg -i emby-server-deb_3.5.0.0_amd64.deb

Alright, it's no wonder it doesn't work, you're installing the deb made for linux distributions. We have a deb specifically for netgear, emby-server-netgear.

Yea where did you get these instructions? We have them right on our website download page, just click NAS, then select Netgear ReadyNAS.

 

https://emby.media/download

 

Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

I am TRYING this route (ssh) as doing the typical Upload via the Apps from the ReadyNAS simply does the upload, unpacking, and as soon as it shows the 'Configuring...' it closes and shows an alert that it wasn't installed, so I am trying via SSH directly.  But getting nowhere also

 
This is via the web app:

I'm afraid you borked your system by installing a package that wasn't meant for it. I would try to remove /home/emby and install again, should it failed the quickest way would probably be to reinstall readynas and start fresh.

I have tried removing the /home/emby, but it keeps showing:  

 
root@ReadyNAS:/home# rm -r emby
rm: cannot remove 'emby/.ssh/ssh_authorized_keys': Operation not permitted
 

 

And what sucks is that I tried about 4-5 times via the Webapp from ReadyNAS installing the emby-server-netgear_3.5.0.0_amd64.deb downloaded via the  https://emby.media/nas-server.html selecting Netgear ReadyNAS and downloading it..    that's WHY I tried via SSH..

Well, fixed the issue by changing the UID on the emby user to the one that matched the .ssh folder that couldn't delete and that allowed me to install via the readynas web app...  I don't understand why it wouldn't use the same user or UID as before, if ALL I tried was to update from 3.4.1.0 to 3.5.0.0, the same way I installed it originally, via the webapp of ReadyNAS... weird.  Lost all my settings, but not a big deal, I guess Emby will have to update all the libraries; not all is lost!  Thanks for the help!

 

usermod -u 102 emby

 

did the trick

I think it's just hard to say why given that you tried to install the other package. I'm glad you've resolved it though. Thanks for the feedback.

I believe The ReadyNAS 214 ARM7 has a  large media / streaming install base..

 

 

see this post https://www.avsforum.com/forum/39-networking-media-servers-content-streaming/2358425-plex-recommended-netgear-readynas-rn212-214-review.html

 

 

would be fantastic to see it supported on emby 

 

 

Best 

 

HI @@makkadiamond, we now have a package for this device. Please try it out:

 

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.2.0.17/emby-server-netgear_4.2.0.17_armhf.deb

 

Thanks !

I have a rn204 and this package wouldn't install for me, I just got an error.

 

What was the error?

I think it's armel not armhf packages, there's no descriptive error it just says it can't install.

 

Yea you might be right, thanks.

I get a broken link for https://github.com/M....0.17_armhf.deb I will try again later, be nice if it worked, my Emby is on the system that does my downloading so tends to buffer

@@scalyback, sorry about that. You can get the latest beta build from our website here:

https://emby.media/nas-server.html

 

Thanks.

Many thanks for that, the Beta version will work with the ReadyNAS 214? As that is not x64 architecture :) Or do I need to upgrade my NAS (there's an idea)

That will depend on what floating point type netgear went with. Even though most (if not all) armv7 processors are capable of doing hardware floating point, most NAS manufacturers go with a software floating point firmware for the stupidest reason. You can try the armhf beta, if it does not work it means netgear is using the armel flavor of debian, then I'm afraid you'll need to find with an x86_64 device (or a cheaper arm device from another manufacturer that's actually utilizing its hardware floating point capabilities).

Great many thanks for the reply, I will give it a go tonight after work and update, it might helps others to decide on a NAS.

 

18:25 CTE: End of the day update, unfortunately that did not work error was wrong architecture, so guess a new NAS needs some research

We're excited to announce Emby for NetGear ReadyNAS is now available.

 

Installation

 

See the download page of our website:

 

https://emby.media/nas-server.html

 

I have ReadyNAS 102 and running firmawe 6.10.2

 

As in your instructions, I went to download ->Platform ReadeNAS and downloded the file emby-server-netgear_4.3.1.0_amd64.deb on ReadyNAS via my imac. Then in ReadyNAS admin page ->apps->Upload->Browse->Upload...

and installation fails.. What's I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your reply. Although I've been using my ReadyNAS 102 for couple years now, I realize that my knowledge about the system is scarce. In the admin window of the System there is no information if it's 64-bit mode or not.

I can see installed apps and available for me for installation. Unfortunately there is no Emby-app among them. I have no idea where the Netgear app store is located. Searched google but hav't got any clear indication.

If you have enough patience to deal with newbees like me, I would appreciate your advice.

Hello again,

 

Now I know that the armel is right architecture for my RN102

SYSTYPE NAME ARCH RN102 ReadyNAS 102 armel

Where to find the proper .deb file? As I mentioned app is , as far as I can see, not available via ReadyNAS admin page.

OK, now I've found webbased page with listed apps. https://apps.readynas.com/pages/?page_id=9 and I can see Emby Server. It doesn't show on My ReadyNAS apps list and I realize now that this particular installation is not ment for my ReadyNAS102.

Is there any compatible installation package available for my system? 

Alternatively, I could try to install the suitable package via SSH if anybody could lead me in a right direction. 

Thanx in advance.

Not currently. We are trying to get an armhf package released to the readynas store as well, although I didn't check what architecture your model is.
