converting: sheduled job "convert media" keeps converting without new media

[plessers@gmail.com 32]

Hello,

 

Running emby-portable (Version 3.5.3.0) as a service on a WIN10 box with latest updates.

 

On my monitoring software, I noticed that there was a certain pattern in CPU load:

 

 

 

After analyzing this, it seems to be my emby server:

 

And checking my emby logs on the problematic timeslots:

On my dashoard https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/web/index.html#!/scheduledtasks.html,I can see the job is running:

 

Problem is: I am NOT adding any new media (defenitly no during the night :-)  ) and nobody was watching anything. In fact, server should be stable an not doing anything for last days/weeks.

 

So, what exactly is my server converting??? Is it needed?

Any help is appreciated, so thanx for taking a closer look a this,

 

 

Kind regards,
Bart

You must have created a convert job, cloud sync. Folder sync, or download job.

@@Luke,

can you elaborate this a little bit more?

 

This behaviour started at +/- 04/aug/2018 and repeats every 3h.

Is there a overview of jobs somewhere?

Possibility to delete them?

Yes, in the Download & Sync section of the dashboard.
