Hello,

 

Weird issue: if I use Embycon, Kodi sees and plays my libraries without issue, but when I choose sync through Emby Add-on, nothing happens, empty library!

 

Already triwd setting up through add-on and direct (native), running out of ideas on what I may be doing wrong.

Hi, what versions of the addon and emby server? can you attach the emby server log as well? thanks.

Oh, and I should add that I have no other media getting pulled into Kodi, i.e. I'm using it purely as a client for emby-server.

 

I thought maybe the problem was that since there was no Kodi library created, the add-on would not sync to an inexisting database, so I added a local dir to Kodi to populate a Movies DB. Even then Emby and Kodi won't sync.

Hello joaompfp,

 

I had the same problem a few weeks ago on one of my devices. On GitHub I opened an issue that describes this issue: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/plugin.video.emby/issues/308

 

Good News: Meanwhile I also discovered a simple workaround for this problem. I described it in detail in the first comment on the above GitHub page.

 

Hope that helps you ;)

So looks like a client side update is needed to handle 204 responses?

 

 

I think so. But I don't really have an idea why this error is happening at all. It seems like a bug in the Python interpreter.

Bullseye mammo0, your patch to http.py did the trick.

 

I applied it, reset Kodi and Bam! The libraries are syncing now.

 

Thank you!

The affected file

 

plugin.video.emby/libraries/emby/core/http.py

 

Belongs to the Emby add-on, so I'd say to the team that maintains it?

I would also say so...

 

But that patch was just a quick workaround.

I didn't analyzed the whole Kodi plugin. Maybe there are also downsides of this patch. Or maybe a better approach. But this has to be decided by the plugin maintainers.

Congratulations you just got promoted, you are now a add-on contributor, submit a pull request :)

 

Well... Thanks  ;) 

 

Maybe I have some free time on the weekend to create and submit the pull request.
