I do have a weired problem...

 

I can download movies without any problemm - either internal or external storage. Works with Lolipop devices or Pie devices - all fine. But it fails in all cases to download a TV show (neither Pie nor Lolipop. Neither internal nor extarnal storage). I also tries to play a bit with the options (d/l all shows or just unseen - automatic add or not) - makes no difference no success... :-(

 

Any suggestions ?

What version of the android app are you running?

 

There has been some fixes for the download functions of the app recently, but I don't think that's been pushed to the public release yet, its still only been fixed in the beta version.

 

Current beta is 3.0.52.

 

Running that version on Android 8.0.0, I have no issues dling movies, music, tv, or any other random content I have on my server.

Why exactly do you feel that it fails? Does it display an error somewhere?

@@Luke - the emby server doesn't even start to transcode the tv-shows. In the list of downloaded/Sync files, the TV shows are shown immediatly as "failed" (every episode I tried to downlodad is shown as failed, too). As mentioned before - no issues with movies (so nothing to do with background data of Android or internal/external storage - doesn't work fpr Android ) nor for Android 5 - again - just TV shows where Emby reports an error).

I think I do have an idea about the problem.

 

Did I wrote that I do not have problems with movies ? This isn't 100% correct. One movie couldn't downloaded - this movie was in two versions (4K / 3D) in one folder.... And i could download one TV show, where ALL episodes (no matter seen/unseen) were in one folder. As soon as the episodes of one TV show is spread over different folders / hard drives, (no matter seen/unseen), the download fails,..

Can you please attach the emby server log from when this happened? Thanks.

@@Luke - sure. I did a restart of the emby server just before to start a download. I did both - movie (with two versions (4K / 3D) in the same directory as well as a TV show spread over multiple hard drives. Both have been unseccessful.

@@Luke - a bit disappointing by getting no further feedback... :-(

 

However, the root cause seems to be really that the series are spread over mutiple hard drives and folders. When I put all episodes (starting from S01E01) in one folder on one hard drive - the download function works as it should. A work around which takes a lot of time... :-( 

 

Just for the case that multiple resolutions of one film are located in one folder I don't have a work around without losing the functionality of selecting the resolution (i,e 3D or 4K) as the film starts...Wired... :-(

 

Btw - when the series are spread over multiple folders/drives and when you then using the parental control for selected users - this doesn't work properly either (even by modifying the meta data for each seasnon or even each episode - not all are then visible for the user with active parental control - actually I didn't find any system when it becomes visible or not). Again - by moving all episodes of a series into one folder, the parental control is working as it should...

@@Luke - any progress ?

 

I think you should be able to reproduce this failure without any problem, can't you ?

Yes we are working on this and should have something soon. Thanks.
