Paint 7 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Can we please add a feature for the musicbrainz plugin to allow for custom musicbrainz server URLs? I run my own musicbrainz mirror and would prefer if the requests are redirected locally. Thank you 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paint 7 Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 @Luke Im noticing that my library refresh is taking very long because it is querying an external Musicbrainz server. Can we please get this feature prioritized so I can change the musicbrainz server URL to a local mirroed slave I run on the same Emby machine? Thank you!

Paint 7 Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 My library scanning is hanging in my music folders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paint 7 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) I will PM you a link to my log. Currently the scan library scheduled task is stuck at 90.4%. And I cannot stop the library scan - it will either stay at "stopping" or not progress any further. I have to reboot Emby to have it update the library again.

Paint 7 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 Issue only started with the latest Beta (library scans not finishing) - 4.6.0.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paint 7 Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) I downgraded to 4.5.1.0 and uninstalled the Musicbrainz plugin. My library still stops at 90.4% (somewhere in my music library) and I cannot stop the scan or restart library scanning until I restart Emby. Any ideas? I also turned off all metadata downloaders. It seems like the library stops refreshing after this line: http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/?method=artist.getInfo&mbid=8dd98bdc-80ec-4e93-8509-2f46bafc09a7&api_key=<key>&lang=en&format=json **UPDATE** Ok, so I moved the latest 30 days of music folders out of my library and refreshed - it completed fine. I am going to see which folder/file is causing the issue **UPDATE 2** Restored all the music directories. Narrowed it down again to my Calvin Harris directory. I deleted the artist.nfo and other images in the artist's root directory, which seems like it fixed the issue.

Luke 36879 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 The log you provided has transcoding occurring, as well trakt syncing and CoverArt image processing. I think those are the reasons for the overall resource consumption. Don't get me wrong, we can definitely add this option to specify your own musicbrainz url, I'm just saying that I don't believe it's the reason for the slowdown you were seeing.

Paint 7 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 thanks. It would be great to allow me to use my local (or a different) musicbrainz server for the plugin. I solved the issues that prevented my library from completing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paint 7 Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 @ebr @Luke any updates on this? its been open for 2 years now. All I am asking for is a configuration text box to allow me to override the musicbrainz server from the default "https://musicbrainz.emby.tv" to one of my choosing.....how can we get this prioritized?

xe` 42 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Just landed on this trying to do the same. Surely allowing a custom URL is trivial addition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xe` 42 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Since the default is `https://musicbrainz.emby.tv` with SSL it could get quite tricky. Emby would likely not honor any redirect since the SSL handshake would fail before it got to that step. In theory you could make your own CA and then generate a SSL cert by virtue of the fact you can install the CA on the Emby host cert store but a lot has to go right for this to all work. A lot of work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paint 7 Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 its a simple feature to add to the musicbrainz plugin. its simply not a priority it seems. I asked if this could be added 4 years ago when the musicbrainz plugin was first created for emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicDoubleM 92 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Well, there's that alternative to emby that happens to have this feature in it's musicbrainz plugin. So you could try what I'm doing for something else. I'm running an installation of that one for handling certain metadata. Emby is set to only read info files and doesn't get metadata by itself from other sources. That's what the other things does and writes to an no file.... Making a "port" of their plugin to use in emby would be another idea. Edited March 19 by MagicDoubleM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
