fri3ndlyguy 0 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Hi! I am seriously wondering: Whats the proper way to install emby theater on a raspberry-pi 3 b+ ? I did several installs already but in the meantime: i am confused. Via deb file provided here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/42868-emby-theater-for-linux/ ? Or download it from github and run it via npm as described here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/42868-emby-theater-for-linux/page-28&do=findComment&comment=725333 ? Can someone clarify? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fri3ndlyguy 0 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 okay, i`ve tried both. using the deb package: it wasnt possible to play any movies: no compatible stream found. using the git repo and npm: movies start but they are SUPER laggy, impossible to watch. any advice?

fri3ndlyguy 0 Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Well, yes. There isnt much to do. Download the package, install and run. ("Debian based Distros"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36878 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I was hoping MPV on buster supported the raspberry pi but it does not. It's missing the raspberry pi video driver. I'll need to recompile MPV for buster due to missing libs. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fri3ndlyguy 0 Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 That makes sense. Please let me know when u want me to test something or even recompile mpv. Thanks for your answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fri3ndlyguy 0 Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 Hi Luke! Did you manage to recompile MPV in the meantime? I would love to use my PIs again Kind regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
