STR8 69 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Ok I'm back up and running... I just uninstalled the old 9.4 stable version and installed the new 9.6 stable version of the plugin and everything is working fine with the 4.6 stable sever update. The only bad thing was that I had to manually redo all of my channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiekat641 0 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Loving this plug-in! I have been using it for about a month but just started having trouble with it last night. The guide was populated with programs but anything I clicked on would just play a black screen with no sound. I attempted to refresh the guide, thinking that would help but now there are no listings at all. And typically when I refresh the guide it takes about 15 minutes or so but since last night it only takes about 20 seconds. I tried disabling and then re-enabling my channels but that didn't work. And now I have no option to select folders for my library for the channels. Not sure what happened but any advice would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that is something to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pünktchen 1258 Posted May 26, 2021 Author Share Posted May 26, 2021 If your server has updated within the last week to version 4.6 then just download the VirtualTV.0.9.6_Emby.4.6.zip and try it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miyamoto 11 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) I downloaded the new version after the emby update and the channel populates and looks good but when I try and play anything I just get a blank screen with like a minute of runtime. I tried giving it a new API key and that didnt seem to help. Anyone else running into this problem? So I did some testing and playback method "Playlist" isnt working correctly but If I change it to single playback archive it works. Not sure whats going on.

crusher11 851 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Are you using a browser that has Emby open in multiple tabs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miyamoto 11 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 No I don't have it open in multiple tabs but I did notice after I posted that it only happens in chrome. If I use the appletv the channel works fine, same thing with edge browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pünktchen 1258 Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 All i can say it's still working for me in the mobile app. Some things you can try: logout the user, if doesn't help then remove the device from device manager in Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 851 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I tried it again and it worked, I think I had the same user logged in on my LG TV at the time it failed. Not sure why it can't work if you're logged in to more than one device/tab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1258 Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Multiple logins with the same user on different devices shouldn't be a problem and is working fine for me. Multiple tabs in a browser is a different story because it's always the same device and i can only send videos to a device, not a tab instance.

I don't think it's the same problem that you've quoted, it's probably this one: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/97640-android-tv-beta-2010/&do=findComment&comment=1032033 A crash with the playlist queue which is also used by the plugin.

redlozenge 1 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) Hey there, This is a very cool idea. I've just started playing with this plugin. I have a couple of channels set on playlist mode which works fine on both the web client and Nvidia Shield. However when I try to use the m3u playlist it just seems to hang. I'm trying in to play it in VLC. The videolist file it mentions in the log snippet below was created, but as far as I can tell it never starts actually transcoding anything. (full log attached too) 2021-06-10 10:39:50.941 Info VirtualTV Plugin: FFmpegConcatDemuxer > VideoList: /var/lib/emby/transcoding-temp/VirtualTV1_20210610103950.txt, DemuxedFile: /var/lib/emby/transcoding-temp/VirtualTV1_20210610103950.ts, StartOffset: 18 minutes Thanks!! embyserver.txt Edited June 10, 2021 by redlozenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
