Emby Photos Library showing Empty in Kodi

Hi all,

 

  • Emby Server: 3.2.33.0
  • Kodi 17.4
  • Emby Addon for Kodi: 2.3.55
 

I have a Photo's Library configured (type is "Photos", name is "Foto's & Video's Patrick") and it has contents (see Emby.png)

 

When I open the Emby Pictures addon for Kodi, the Photos Library shows up, but the content is empty. (see Kodi 01-04.png)

 

Anyone have any idea what could be the cause of this problem?

 

I attached the Kodi log and the Emby Server log.

 

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for providing all the info. I'll come back to you on this. I don't have issues viewing my photos library, but hopefully your log will give me a clue as to what is wrong.

Hi, 

 

did you have time to look into this yet? (not meaning to push, just asking)

I updated to kodi 17.5 but the problem is still there.

 

If I need to provide more info, please let me know. Thanks!

Sorry, no. But I had checked your logs. I didn't see anything that would explain this. :/ I'm still trying to figure out what would cause it not to work (works for me).

Sorry, I didn't get around to creating the logs earlier. But here they are. :-)

 

I enable the checkbox at the top of the Log Files page in the Emby Server and I set the Emby Kodi addon log level to Debug.

The problem is between the server (donald) and the client (bolderbast).

 

By the way, in the mean time I have upgraded to:

 

  • Emby Server: 3.2.34.0 (3.2.35.0 is not yet available in the Arch Linux repositories)
  • Kodi 17.5
  • Emby Addon for Kodi: 2.3.56

An the problem is still there.

Hope this helps!

I see the issue. Ok, I'll work on a fix tomorrow. Thank you for providing your log.

That would be amazing! :-)

Thanks in advance!

Small update: To fix this is more complex than I thought. The reason it doesn't work is because of the naming of your photos folder. Anyway blah blah, back to making it work :) Will let you know when I have a build for you to test.

Hi, thanks! I tested it, an now I see my folder structure and images. Yay! :-)

 

Just a quick question, though: For each folder I see a "0" in front it and behind it. I am unsure what they mean, is it correct that they all show "0"?

What skin are you using? How are you accessing this? Via pictures? I use estuary and I do not see this whatsoever.

I'm using the Estuary skin.

I'm accessing this screen through: Add-ons -> Picture add-ons -> Emby -> "Foto's & Video's Patrick" -> "Foto's & Video's Patrick" (again). Then I have this screen:

ViewType is set to "WideList".

 

I'm noticing now that the behaviour *has* changed! But only for the first folder "00 - Misc". Previously that also showed the "0" before and after the folder name, just like the rest of the folders shown above. So I believe you are in the right area to solve this!

 

UPDATE - The difference in the content of the folders is:

  • 00 - Misc: Contains images directly in it, and contains subfolders with images
  • The rest: Only contains subfolders with images (no images directly in it, only in the subfolders)

I still can't reproduce this. :( I even replicated your data structure. 

 

Can you try adding a new folder at the same level as 2003, 2004, 2005... Maybe it's a cached issue? Hmm.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I decided to reorganize (and recreate) my libraries and that took a while.

 

One of the changes is that I recreated the library containing my images. Figured that should also fix any caching issues. :-)

The library containing my images used to be of the "Pictures" type, but because that is no longer available in Emby Server, I now chose "Home videos & photos".

 

However, the new library shows no images again (with your latest 2.3.7a version), just like my initial problem. :-( I attached the debug log.

 

Could it be that the previous fix also needs to be applied for the "Home videos & photos" library type?
