local player trying to play from a remote Emby server.

 

trying to connect until it fails.

 

in the log I can see few issues: a cec issue and file issue

 

the path is correct beside the drive letter "D:" which is local.... when copy the url into a browser it plays fine

2nd try

Embyserver_log.txt

[Luke 37027]

Ok so you have the server on linux and Emby Theater on Windows, is that correct?

 

Where is the D:\ path coming from?

 

 

 

 no such file or directory, access 'D:\mnt\ssd2\media\Movies\Havana Race  The Fate of the Furious (2017) Movie Clip_1.mp4'

 

Obviously that would not exist on Linux...

[sbacch 0]

yes, you are correct, linux server and windows 10 theater

 

the D: is the drive inwhich the theatre is running from and it is added somewhere in the process, I couldn't find where.

[Luke 37027]

Did you by chance set that as the optional network path for a library folder?

[sbacch 0]

Not sure where that can be even set, can you direct me to where that can be found?

[sbacch 0]

if you mean to "(Optional) Shared network folder:" under folder settings, than the answer is no, I didn't set it

[Luke 37027]

Are you sure? can you show a screenshot of the settings for that library? thanks.

[sbacch 0]

here it is

[Luke 37027]

Can you attach this file?

 

/var/lib/emby/config/system.xml

 

Thanks.

[sbacch 0]

attached

system.xml

[sbacch 0]

were you able to find something releated to the configuration?

[Luke 37027]

Unforunately no. If you use the metadata editor in the web app on the same file that fails, what path does it show for that video?

[sbacch 0]

here it is.

 

[Luke 37027]

Can you please try this version:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/p0ezaa2sl88kxr2/emby-theater.zip?dl=0

 

Just unzip and run it portable. Thanks.

at first install asked to load cec driver.  i said ok and then wouldnt load.  uninstalled cec driver.  theatre now runs as expected.

Luke,

 

I run it and it plays the file correctly.

[Luke 37027]

Ok thanks for the info. That's strange though. I still have no idea why your other install is trying to play from a D: drive. We may push this as the new release version very soon. Thanks.

while trying to debug it i saw somewhere where it returns "win32" and afterwards the D: is added

my p[roblem is that i couldnt put my finger on the exact location due to isse running the debuger in Visual Studio Code

it keep giving me error about opening files from the electron.asar archive.

maybe if you can help we that one I could help you with the issue

[Luke 37027]

Thanks for the info.

Hi, I am having the same issue on the latest linux build. I can access the files via the web browser, windows version, and roku tv, but the app running on my linux partition doesn't want to work.
