MeMeMe 1 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I have Emby installed on two pcs and found today that neither were working properly, and it looks like its due the 4.0.0.2 server update that occurred today. All TV information seems to have wiped, and some movies are showing but not all of them. I've tried a database reset on one of the machines, which made more movies visible but hasnt fixed the TV version. I see in another thread someone mentioned problems with this update, but no actual information or announcement. What is the issue, and how do we fix it?

messiah1095 3 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) Had the same issue after the update. You'll need to install the Emby beta repo in Kodi which then updates your client to the latest beta version. Do another database reset on your clients and it should all start working again.

Angelblue05 4130 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The beta repository is here http://kodi.emby.media Download it, install from zip in Kodi. Then, install from repository > Emby beta add-ons > video add-ons > Emby for Kodi will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I'm trying to install your beta (angelblue05-3.1.44a) but getting a "Failed to install a dependency" error. [EDIT: Nevermind, got it going, Kodi has reset database and is now re-syncing ...] Edited January 18, 2019 by vurt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pand0ra 3 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Are you able to connect from the web app remotely? Yes, and switching all clients on Kodi to 3.1.44a fixed it. Everything seems to work now but the "watched status" from audiobooks. But i'm not shure if it worked before. Some of them are marked as watched, some not. Does Emby set watched status to audio/audiobooks? If not, how does it decide wich titles are marked as watched? I guessed it might be in the nfo file but i didn't find anything there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a lag in the library or something. ) Thanks for the great work guys! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Audiobooks are currently broken. Waiting on Luke to decide the best way to add this type of media. I’ll make a post when audiobooks will be correctly supported. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, install from repository > Emby beta add-ons > video add-ons > Emby for Kodi will be there. HI AngelBlue05, I'm at the 3rd step (install from repository > Emby beta add-ons > video add-ons), I have a little box on bottom right thats says "Working" with a spinning circle left of it. Its been like this for over an hour. Is this normal? EDIT: After over 4 hrs of "Working" I figured by myself it wasn't normal I am stuck with Kodi being up to date to jan. 15th. Everything else is not added as the startup scan barely start and I get this error message (see next post).

CharleyVarrick 276 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) After updating Emby to 4.02 early this morning, I too noticed it harmed Emby for Kodi. Everytime I fire up Kodi, seconds after logging in (which I now have to do every time I start Kodi), I get an error prompt that says: Library sync thread has exited! You should restart Kodi now.

Angelblue05 4130 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 If you are getting this warning, then you are not using the beta version of Emby for Kodi. Can you confirm you are not still on 3.0.34? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1551 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Don't know if its the best place to mention it, but... Haven't actually tried playing anything using Kodi for a while, so don't know how new it is, but on latest Emby server beta 4.1, and Kodi .44 (well, before and after I updated to .44), tried to play a few movies and nothing worked, just a flash of something on the screen or a spinning circle.
