Just setup Emby server on Mac OS and accessing it via Firefox web app. I try to play music and I get this endless error loop. I'm not sure what's causing the initial error, but I'm more concerned about the bug that this error just pops up endlessly. I have to close my browser window and re-visit Emby to get it to stop.

 

I attached a screen cap

We're unable to launch our included ffprobe and ffmpeg executables. Do you have any security settings configured on your Mac that might be causing that?

I don't think so. What type of security settings are you thinking about? Do you mean user permissions?

Never mind. I fixed it. When I unzipped the install .zip, the application just stayed where it was unzipped (in my case in /Downloads). I "uninstalled" by dragging to the trash can, re-unzipped, dragged app to /Applications and re-setup server. Now music is playing just fine.

Ah got it ok. So you never dragged it to Applications. Others have reported this as well, now that finally explains it.
