MisterAngelus 7 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I am having trouble getting thumbnail creation to work on some of my content it wont create thumbnails for 2 of 13 episodes I also attached the emby server log * Error Report *** Version: 4.0.0.2 Command line: F:\App Data\Emby\system\EmbyServer.dll Operating system: Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 64-Bit OS: True 64-Bit Process: True User Interactive: True Processor count: 4 Program data path: F:\App Data\Emby\programdata Application directory: F:\App Data\Emby\system System.Exception: System.Exception: Error running ffmpgeg extract-imageseries for H:\TV Shows\Marvel's The Punisher\Season 2\Marvel's The Punisher - 2x04 - Scar Tissue.mkv - embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 You cancelled the scheduled task, that's why you got an error in the log file. We can make sure the error does not get written to the log in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterAngelus 7 Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 I thought that might be it,,, but I re ran the thumbnail creation several times and let it run for hours till it finally stops... but it never creates the .bif for those 2 episodes when it stops i check and no thumbnail file created no matter how many times i run the plugin.. its a 4k file so it takes a long while to make the .bif file but it wont create it for those two files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Occasionally it may fail for certain files, it is nothing to be alarmed about. We're going to be revamping this soon so that may have some impact. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterAngelus 7 Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 Not alarmed just curious... i did just remove the files scan library .. then re added the files so we shall see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Just remembered the default triggers for the scheduled task have a time limit of 4 hours due to the resource consumption this requires on your machine. So if you didn't cancel manually, that would be why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterAngelus 7 Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 The only trigger for thumbnails is set to run at application startup.. so if I start the thumbnail creation manually... i'm thinking it wont stop after 4 hours... unless i'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Correct. And the default triggers will not run that task at startup so that must have been customized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterAngelus 7 Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Just a follow up... just tried this again with a 4k copy of The Girl in the Spider's Web Roku thumbnail plugin is set to create thumbnails when new content is found but that didn't work so I manually told it to create thumbnails from scheduled tasks that also didn't create the .bif file unsure as to why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterAngelus 7 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 I'm wondering if the thumbnail plugin doesn't have trouble with HDR content. I bet your getting tired of me reporting the same issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 It just takes a long time and then we will it because it exceeds our allotted time limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterAngelus 7 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Hmm interesting i knew the thumbnail creation that gets run automatically when new content is discovered had a time limit but after that one finished I ran it manually I did not think the manual one was subject to that rule but then I guess you would know more then I would reading the log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterAngelus 7 Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 I just tested this with a video file with HDR content and the new built in thumbnail creation and it worked great. it created the .bif file in about 10 minutes much much faster then ever before so this issue is solved dunno what you did when you incorporated the thumbnail feature into Emby but it works great My compliments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
