sleepy 10 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Hi, no idea what changed but suddenly nothing will play using MPC-HC as an external player. I've removed it from the Emby for WMC Configurator, removed and reinstalled MPC-HC, Added it again in the configurator but to no avail. If I use the internal player everything plays fine. If I could turn subtitles on or off on the fly then I would leave the internal player set. Anyone any idea? It's probably something really simple I am missing! Oh, I've reinstalled Server and Emby WMC apps too. Kind regards, Cog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 12445 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Hi. That's a configurator log. We need the emc log from when you tried to play something that didn't play. And, while you're at it, please explain exactly what "nothing will play" means. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepy 10 Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 Oops, I knew that too, bloody Muppet that I am! Nothing will play simply means any TV Show or Movie will not play. Won't start. MPC-HC doesn't open to play any video media files etc. MBClassic-332018b3b728b05fe244879f1410f2cc8f0f48.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 28634 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The log seems to suggest mpc is starting up and playing OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see a couple of unrelated things in your log that you should address: 1) Your Server IP has changed. You should set the option in the app to find the server automatically and log in. After that, if you want to set it to log in to a specific user you can. This will speed up the app startup significantly. 2) You are running an old beta version of the server. You should update it either to the current stable or beta release. Finally, there is a new beta of EMC as well if you would like to update to it (you are on an old beta of that too).

sleepy 10 Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share Posted March 29, 2018 I've set the app to find server automatically and it starts up fine now. I wondered why it was taking awhile, I guessed it was updating the database at the time. Both Server and WMC App updated to latest beta releases now. Updated MPC to latest build too but still nothing playing. I immediately pulled the latest log file so hopefully that will show I tried to play an episode of Blindspot.

sleepy 10 Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Yep, works fine on the internal player still. Log attached thanks, should show the playing of Suits and Blindspot again.

ebr 12445 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Okay, both methods are throwing an error on the start and progress reporting but, perhaps, that only causes playback to not start with the external player. It looks like we're getting a poorly formatted response from the server - or, at least, something it isn't expecting. Luke, have the responses to playback progress reports changed in recent server versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
