Twixter 4 Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Hello, I've been using emby for a couple of months now it's everything that i expected and more. (only missing a subtitles edit option) The only real issue i have with emby is that i'm very quickly hitting my API limit of Gdrive and i've been struggling with this since day 1. I have: - Gsuite unlimited (exclusively being used for emby) - 40TB Split over all Library's (11 library's in total) - ~80% of my media = Hevc 10 bit MKV - ~275GB Media uploading to Gdrive every 24 hours true rclone with encryption - PC Server is running on : Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.00GHz 48.0GB Ram Dual-Channel @ 1066MHz GeForce GTX 1070 I know buying hard drives and streaming emby locally would be much better but i wont be able to buy 40TB+ of hard drives anytime soon but will eventually. Is there anything i could do to lower the API usage, could it be possible emby is doing unnecessary scans of my library or is there anything else i should be aware of using the api limit? I attached some older logs the most recent ones where to big to upload. embyserver-63733651213.txt embyserver-63733564811.txt
Carlo 4552 Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 Do you have the ability to use 2 ,3 or 4 Google Account Drives (different logins)? If so that can drastically reduce the traffic.
Twixter 4 Posted August 24, 2020 Author Posted August 24, 2020 How would this work exactly? 1 Would i just be adding more users to my gdrive (and is this free?) 2 will i have to split my library's in different drives? 3 Do i need to login to emby with different accounts? Be as detailed as possible about this for me please since i'm not very experienced with gdrive, i've only set it up a couple of months ago and it's soul purpose has been storage for my emby server. I use rclone for about everything gdrive, the only time i login to google drive is to empty my bin every now and then.
Carlo 4552 Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 You would create a 1 drive per user. Yes you would split up your library across the different drives. You would setup a couple "local drives" using rclone (one per google account). In Emby you just setup as normal.
Twixter 4 Posted August 25, 2020 Author Posted August 25, 2020 Thanks for the info it's been very helpful! I gotta sign off for tonight but I be looking into this tomorrow. I think I should be able to do the rest of the research myself. Thanks again for the help.
