ProcessRun 'ffprobe' Error Output

Hello,

I am trying to run Emby server on my debian 10 VPS.

Library is mapped via webdav, drives are on my Synology NAS (ARMv5, so emby is not working properly at the moment). fstab is as follows:

https://xxxx.xxxx.xx/Storage /mnt/Storage    davfs        rw,user,noauto         0       0

emby user is mounting the point, hence the rights are set as:

drwxr-xr-x  24 emby emby 0 Sep  1 21:03  Documentaries
drwx------   2 emby emby 0 Sep 18 17:59  lost+found
drwxr-xr-x 229 emby emby 0 May 17 12:31  Movies
drwxr-xr-x   2 emby emby 0 Sep  8 17:31 '#recycle'
drwxr-xr-x  14 emby emby 0 Aug 17 09:00 'TV Shows'

Movies identification works, nfo and image files are written in the directories as expected. However, the file stats (length, size, audio, subtitles etc.) are not extracted. What I see on my NAS is upload stream up to my bandwidth limit. RAM usage on the VPS is high, after a while, it stops.

This is what I get:

Is it linked to my installation or to webdav ?

HI, I wonder if the server is being denied access. What happens when you try to play one of these? Can you attach the ffmpeg log from that? Thanks.

OK, I think I've got it. Issue lies with webdav which is not suited for streaming. What it does is basically to copy to the server the file it whats to open...

I am trying mapping using sshfs, ie filesystem over ssh. Stay tuned.

I confirm. Webdav is rubbish for streaming, sshfs works wonders between my Synology and my OVH VPS on debian 10. It requires some tuning for increased security, but it does the job very well and even transcode !

This will now replace the Syno emby application as it is broken for ARMv5.

👍
