matlaf 0 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Hi, I try to use emby 4.0.0.2 to access my photo library, but the UI is very slow to display thumbnail (web or android) make it unusable. I run it on a ds216+. I tried to put data folder to another drive and cache folder also. It seems emby generate thumbnail on demand when an UI want one. Is it possible to pre-generate all thumbnails?

Luke 37112 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hi there, if you go back and browse the same folders as you did earlier, from the same browser, are they still slow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solabc16 379 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hello @@matlaf Thanks for the logs, nothing is jumping out immediately. Were you running Emby Server prior to version 4.0 on this system? If so, was it working ok then? Best - James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matlaf 0 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hi, I tried the same setup with 3.6 but stop my test because the same problem. I was waiting version 4 for the performance improvement you announce. If I go to a folder for the first time, no thumbnail are displayed. I see synology working and thumbnail display after some time. With my test, for 10 thumbnails, the time is between 30s to 1m. If I scroll down the page the next 10 thumbnails are generated with the same time. If I return to the same folder some of the thumbnails are displayed instantly but not all. This behavior can be ok for small photo collection but my folder have 2000 photos and 40 000 for all my collection. 30s per 10 photos, 2000 photos, so 1h and more to be able to scroll down without lag. Have you a solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solabc16 379 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) Hello @@matlaf I've trawled through the logs again and for the most part, images are being processed reasonably quickly (i.e. tens of milliseconds) and in line with expectations for the processor in your system. However, there are the occasional images that take significantly longer - around 30s, and I suspect it is these that are causing the overall lack of responsiveness being reported. e.g. 2019-01-17 19:15:05.473 Info HttpServer: HTTP GET http://192.168.1.189:8096/emby/Items/13465/Images/Primary?maxWidth=900&tag=57eaddbb9a1754a3db1fc4b6d7a2d061&quality=90.

matlaf 0 Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hi, I check some images but see no difference. I check this example : HTTP Response 200 to 192.168.1.99.

I suspect the number of thumbnail processed in parallel to have an impact but it's not clear because the NAS processor and ram not go to 100%. I made another test and 20 images take 5 minutes to get thumbnails generated. The problem is really that this process is live when browsing photo. I understand that the NAS processor have limits. But these limits are far less important if thumbnail get generated on background task. Is there an API to force thumbnail generation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37112 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 There's no API to do that. We will look into improving this, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solabc16 379 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hello @@matlaf Thanks for the additional information, there is certainly something we need to understand and get to the bottom of here. Your system should be able to handle this in a timely fashion and there must be a reason for the significant variations in the times taken. I made another test and 20 images take 5 minutes to get thumbnails generated. Can you attached the Emby Server log that contains this test, as that's an average of 15s per image and again, clearly not in line with expectation. I also understand your point about having this done in the background, it's a good suggestion. Best - James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
