lardners 7 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 My Emby server was upgraded to 4.0 and it has messed up Kodi. TV shows have disappeared from Kodi. Every time I start Kodi, an Emby for Kodi sign in screen appears. Movies I added last year are appearing under recently added movies. How do I fix this?
Angelblue05 4131 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Update to the beta version of Emby for Kodi.
lardners 7 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Posted January 20, 2019 I have installed from zip, repository.beta.emby.kodi-1.0.6.zip Then tried installing the update, but it says 'Failed to install a dependency' 1
Solution Angelblue05 4131 Posted January 20, 2019 Solution Posted January 20, 2019 Hmm. You can get the dependencies here: http://kodi.emby.media/ Under public testing > dependencies > beta. Install the ones 0.13 1
lardners 7 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Posted January 20, 2019 All good now, thanks for the help, much appreciated.
838Joel 63 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) Hi, Have the same problem. But now I'm trying to use Kodi 18RC with all the Emby plugin beta latest, and not able to sync. Any idea!? Kodi 18RC, Emby for Kodi 3.1.45a, Emby Server 4.0.0.2 and Server Plugin Kodi Companion 2.0.9.0. Edited January 20, 2019 by 838Joel
838Joel 63 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Did the same setup with Kodi 17.6, and all is good! What need to be done to make it work with Kodi 18RC?

838Joel 63 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 So, here is the info: Setup: Kodi 18RC, Emby for Kodi 3.1.45a, Emby Server 4.0.0.2 and Server Plugin Kodi Companion 2.0.9.0. Error is "Something went wrong during the sync. You'll be able to restore progress when restarting Kodi. If the problem persists, please report on the Emby for Kody forums, with your Kodi log." And here is the log: https://paste.kodi.tv/quziyecunu Thanks again, Joel 1
AvengersFan 10 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Hello all, am I right in assuming that the latest version of Kodi needs to be installed, ie version 18. I only ask because after installing Emby Server V4, and after adding the beta version of Emby Kodi from the beta repository, I still got skin crashes when in version 17, and the scan kept crashing asking me to resume. But I didn’t get that error when Kodi version 18 was installed. I am only checking because I hate the skins in V18 as Amber is no longer available, and my little family group are used to it. Is that what we have to do, or is ther some sneaky little trick we can do in version 17 of Kodi that will be compatible with Emby Server 4 and Amber skin? Thanks in advance for any assistance and or suggestions. Cheers Mark

AvengersFan 10 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Ah, I will try this tonight and add a log if it fails. Cheers Mark

Angelblue05 4131 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Thank you for reporting back. I am trying to nail down the database discovery process. Perhaps I will remove it if I’m not happy with it in the end. To be determined. 1
AvengersFan 10 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 I tried again tonight with OpenELEC 8.0.4, and NOOBs installing LibreELEC on my 3 separate RPI'2. (Just so we can keep the familiar amber skin)I think, and I am only guessing that the SD Card may be a issue. On all 3 Raspberry PI's I have, the same card kept crashing when doing the first media scan after connecting to Emby on both Libre and Open. I had to restart it 5 times on both OS', but in the end, it did get there.The other 2 cards were fine with both Libre and Open,and the scan finished without restarts, so go figure. Cheers Mark 1
Angelblue05 4131 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 If ever you feel up to it, can you test with cache artwork disabled. See if that makes a difference.
AvengersFan 10 Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Hope this helps, I can see a crash, but have no idea what it means lol. Thanks for your help previously BTW. Cheers Mark log-2019-01-22-07.13.07.zip 1
sualfred 677 Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Don't investigate further. It's the SD card. Faulty ones can show such issues. The crash you are seeing is Emby unrelated. 1
AvengersFan 10 Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Thanks mate, I suspected as much. Cheers Mark.
lardners 7 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Posted January 26, 2019 Emby for Kodi is acting up again. Now when starting Kodi I just get a message 'Patch Applied' and then 'Emby for Kodi, welcome' but nothing updates. Has it broken again with latest server update? 1
Angelblue05 4131 Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 Not that I am aware of. You get a patch applied everytime you restart? Which Kodi version are you running? Nothing updates? So if you turn off Kodi, update content in the webclient, wait a minute, turn on Kodi, you don't see the content being updated? Can you do that test and provide your Kodi log? Thanks.
