WilhelmStroker 96 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I have a large playlist with about 990 items in it and when shuffling this on Emby Theater on my Xbox, the first episode plays, but the next episode never does, and all I get is the spinning circle and a black screen. The same happens when hitting next as that also gives me the spinning circle and a black screen. The same playlist plays fine on the beta Shield app and my android tabled. After reducing the number of items in the playlist to about 300, everything works fine.. server version is 3.5.3.0 app version is 1.1.229.70 Xbox is on insider build but I'm not sure if that is an issue here. Can provide logs if needed but this should be easy to reproduce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5042 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Yes, there seems to be several areas where Xbox goes into a constant loop with large amounts of data. I have 2K+ songs in one playlist which worked great for the longest time, but I haven't been able to use shuffle since about May while other smaller playlists can shuffle. Correct insider build really isn't the issue since I have both insider and release on different boxes. I think the problem is the actual app too (not server) since it stopped working right after updating the app awhile back. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/58983-music-playback-et-xbone/ https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/60060-emby-for-xbox-one-recent-update-unable-to-select-albumsartists/ https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/59864-xbox-one-x-emby-app-issues/page-5&do=findComment&comment=618518 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilhelmStroker 96 Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 Thanks for confirming, and yes, those issues look very similar. I do remember it worked before so it looks like an update broke it a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilhelmStroker 96 Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Started using my Xbox again for Emby and it looks like this is no longer an issue for me as a large playlist works without issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5042 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) Good to hear. Unfortunately, it's not fixed for me and I haven't seen an update to the Xbox app for almost 2 weeks. As soon as I click skip track I get the infinite circle. Edit: not sure how many tracks I have, but mine is almost 9 days long Edited November 19, 2018 by FrostByte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilhelmStroker 96 Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 Mine is a playlist of cartoons, and around 23,000 minutes long but I'm not sure how many items it has. In my previous testing reducing the number of items worked. Performance seem to have improved for me when clicking next too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
