Hi all having an issue with emby generating episode images, and I can see this error related to it. Thanks for the help.

2020-04-22 22:04:56.454 Error ChapterImagesTask: Error creating thumbnails for smb://10.2.x.xx/Multimedia/tv/Avenue 5/Season 1/Avenue 5 - S01E01 - I Was Flying WEBDL-1080p.mkv

I dont think its a permission issue, and I cant think what else it could be, ive started pulling my hair out.

Hi, ok yes this is currently not supported with the smb protocol. Here's what you can do:

 

Mount the smb share (smb://10.2.x.xx/Multimedia) to a local share using the tools in the OS to do that. Then add the local path to Emby library setup instead of the smb network share. 

 

Please see if that helps. Thanks.

I feel pretty dumb, when I first installed Emby I set it with SMB but then mounted the content via NFS, but didnt replace the location in emby.
