tafelpoowt 7 Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Hey guys, I have just installed the Emby v4.2.1.0 on my WD Cloud EX2 Ultra 3TB and now inside the WD Cloud admin panel i have the right version, however inside the Emby admin panel i see that the version is 4.0.3.0 and that there is an update to istall... Is this the expected behaviour for the app to run like on a old version number ? Hmm no... that's not intended. I've uploaded a new version v4.2.1.0-10 with some extra fixes. Let me know if anything goes wrong. FYI, you can build a package with these steps: git clone https://github.com/stefaang/spksrc cd spksrc make setup # first make low level package cd cross/emby # edit emby version.. then save with CTRL-O # package must exist in https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/ nano Makefile # download the new emby package and create checksums make download make digests # now make high level package cd ../../spk/emby # bump SPK_REV and update changelog nano Makefile # build packages for arm WD My Cloud make apkg-wdarm # more info at https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc/wiki/Developers-HOW-TO # and at https://github.com/stefaang/spksrc The coming weeks I'll look to restore settings / libs on upgrade. For now, it's best to make a backup of /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog/emby/var manually before upgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've build them using a ubuntu 18.04 env with all the packages from the repository readme with the exception of the package php5 which i had to install it separatelly But somehow my packages won't install.. in case you want to check out and help me understand why.. here's the repo where i uploaded my version: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1SxLVXTuqWSugNmY1zys6S1KCvMWdED0k?usp=sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matrixn 7 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 What do you get in /tmp/debug_apkg after a failed installation? I don't get anything in it while installing. That file has only one line and noting comes into it while tail-ing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkside40 91 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Just out of interest: is this project still maintained? Last Release was in October last year, Emby developement goes on rapidly. Wouldnt using the Emby Docker on these devices an alternative. Afaik wdcommunity supplies Docker for these devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tafelpoowt 7 Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 @darkside40 TBH, I'm quite swamped with work stuff. But instructions to build a new version have been posted here. Anyway, as I'm participating in the OS5 beta I'm committing to update wdcommunity packages (and this one). I just grew tired of getting around the limitations of the old kernels in OS3... and I'm running Ubuntu server anyway so it didn't even help my own case.

darkside40 91 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Thanks for the info. Its good for users to know the status of a project. In another board we have the problem that a guy uses the last Emby Version you posted for his WD Device and unfortunately the latest EmbyCon version does not play nicely together with that version of the Emby Server. Lately it was the question if he was able to upgrade the Emby server what lead me here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just contact WD on their forum. e.g. the older v3 / v4 firmware devices, My Passport, My Cloud Home... are not supported. @Jobinho it seems you failed to read the opening post even after the edit I made just for you.

tafelpoowt 7 Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 I've dusted off the project. New stable release v4.4.3.0 is now available at https://bintray.com/beta/#/tfl/wdpksrc/Emby/v4.4.3.0-11?tab=files Enjoy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeDreck 1 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Oh @tafelpoowt, so funny and yet so sad. If you only knew what I've been through because my (accidentally updated) embycon is not compatible with the emby server 4.2.1.0 on my WD MyCloud EX2. The members of emby and kodi community helped me figuring out a satisfying workaround and you provide a new version just like that... Thank you a lot, I downloaded it, but for now I will sit back and enjoy my good old running setup. I hope I will have the heart to install the emby server update, soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tafelpoowt 7 Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 I recommend to backup your Library settings as I'm not sure if upgrades are flawless. /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog/embyserver/var Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquesSullivan 4 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) @tafelpoowt. Hello and thank you for the v.4.4.3.0 update. I was using version 4.2.1.0 with no problem on my Mycloudex2ultra. I installed the new version but since then it is impossible to get to the emby configuration page (page inaccessible). I put the version 4.2.1.0 back and it works. So I think there is a problem with the update. Could you watch it please? (Excuse for my bad english, I speek french from Belgium).

Checking what's wrong.. more news soon. Note that I have no EX2 device, so developing blindly now. Edited August 30, 2020 by tafelpoowt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquesSullivan 4 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Thank you very much for your efforts on this update when you don't personally need it. I am using the Emby Bakcup plugin, do you think I will be able to import my configuration from v4.2.1.0 after installing version 4.4.3.0 ?

Bigdaddy034-EMBY 0 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Thanks again for all your work. I was successful in getting Emby installed & running. The only issue is that when trying to add my files to a library (files are located on a drive connected to the EX2 via usb) I keep getting "the path not found" error. Emby does see my EX2 & the connected drives, when you select "Network" when going through the steps of adding a folder. I've also tried adding the folder by using the IP address of the EX2, but still get the same error. All my files are stored in folders within the drive. I've even tried manually typing the address, but still am getting the same error. HOWEVER, if I used just the IP address of the drive it takes. I attached a screen-shot as well. No files are available after the drive was added. I'm sure it's because all the content are located in folders. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

josephzitt 1 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Reading this thread, I may be missing some more general information. I'm trying to install apps on my MyCloud Ex2 Ultra. I see "No apps available" and the "Install apps manually" link leads to a EULA dialog that, even when I click "ACCEPT", never goes away. Is there a known way around that? (I understand that it might be region-dependent somehow.) Failing that, is there generic info as how to, say, SSH into the Ex2 Ultra and install apps from the command line? Would the username and password be the same as for the dashboard? I may have missed a basic FAQ somewhere. Thanks for any info or links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
