Fernando C 0 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I have been using Plex for months. But besides being a nice looking product it's truly unstable. And their library system sharing is a mess. I a little bit of confusion about configuring Emby. Setting users were not so intuitive. But everything works fine. The only thing that I miss is a graph network usage that Plex has. Congrats to all the team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emby has a statistics plugin that works quite nicely. I can get real network usage from my USG (Ubiquiti Router) and Cloudflare. That could be an interesting addition to the dashboard, or maybe it could be added to the current statistics plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the Plex realtime graph right in the plex dashboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An estimation could be, the plugin knows what is playing and from that it knows what the bitrate that emby is reporting for each stream so the plugin could just keep a record of that. It would not be the true instant bitrate, it would be what emby is reporting for each stream. The alternative is finding a way of being able to query a systems network bitrate using .net across all system types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An estimation based on what was playing remote and local. I actually wouldn't mind having this at all now that I see it. It could help in troubleshooting for those that don't have more advanced tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo 4328 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 You can do this and a lot more on Linux or Windows computers quite easily outside of Plex or Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamB 2349 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 There is a lot you can do with Grafana https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Grafana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plittlefield 44 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Yes, I use Grafana for work but at home I have my Linux based Emby server spit out the number of 'NowPlaying' sessions to an InfluxDB and I graph that in Grafana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
