clarkss12 296 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I am setting up a new Android TV box that I received yesterday. I installed Kodi and added your "EXPERIMENTAL VERSION 6.1.6-build 74 (ex5)". Took 3 hours to scan my media, which is usual, BUT after it scanned the TV shows, it started scanning again. Still scanning, so will watch if it re-scans again........ Never had this happen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With LAN (not wlan) and a more or less powerfull emby server it's quite fast. I have ~39k mkv files in my library, around 1h 20min for a sync. Bottleneck is on the client side for me.

knewknow 4 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I find this sync speed interesting. I use an Apple TV and I sync my 16.9k mkv library in 3-4 minutes from a 10 year old Intel Atom server running Emby. That little ATV box is a serious beast... too bad it requires a ton of hoops to jump through to get Kodi working on it, and makes things difficult for @quickmicto support. Many thanks again...

Lib syncs are queued on selection no matter if they are already selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time install and first time scan. Still scanning for second time. Will report back if it starts a scan a third time. But, I may have accidentally done something wrong.

This queues sync jobs and could result in a double sync. Would be an edge case of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this works, it's usually still not a simple sync issue. You can test: Start Kodi, add content and it will work. I would be surprised if not. Must be something else, could be a sleep mode issue, a long term running Kodi issue, network dropped issue, Server rebooted issue, server reconnect issue... something like that. I'm almost sure a straight test will work, please check that. If not, please send me a kodi.log Edited October 31, 2021 by quickmic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean as accurate as possible: Was Kodi online or offline, what was the folder structure, have you modified the meta data something like that. Are you using the latest version with a clean DB. I really need exact instructions to design a test case. It cannot be a simple case, cause I tested dozens variations in each and every possible way I could think of and nothing was causing this issue.

Onana 8 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Ok, I try (my English is not very good) kodi was online ( I was watching tv) yes version 6.1.6 build 74. I even uninstalled old one first. Clean cache of kodi and installed this new one. folder structure is normal: tvshows/show/season/files A new file was added, and a better version replaced that one. all this while I was watching tv. In kodi when I stop watching tv and go to see the new updated entries, notice that entry duplicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In kodi when I stop watching tv and go to see the new updated entries, notice that entry duplicated. This is still not accurate enough. I performed such simple tests dozens of times. How was the metadata on Emby server before, how after. Was the season info of the corresponding subfolder/seasonfolder on Emby server inconsistent with the season info detected by file. When did you sync Emby server or are you using realtime detection. How did you watch on Kodi, was it a single content or did do you use Kodi autoplay next episode -> was there a overlapping in Kodi playback.

quickmic 1352 Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 How was the TV-Season structure? Was it a single episode of a season, or multiple episodes assigned to a season. Did the TV-Shows have multiple seasons... All such things are important. Was the files renamed or replaced, are you using nfo's. Did you delete the nfo when episode was replaced... As mentioned. I really need all the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I use the Emby server metadata manager, but there I cannot "add" movies to a Genre. I can add a Genre to a movie but seems you are doing something different. Sorry for the late reply, I manually go to the movie and edit its genre on the server yes. By the way I think I found a compatibility issue with dashboard and direct play on Emby For Kodi, it's not showing the remote controls: I've been advised into posting it here, but the original thread: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tube82 73 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 On 10/30/2021 at 7:00 PM, quickmic said: New version available: 6.1.6-build 74 (ex5) delta changelog: - fix Xbian filecopy permission issue - unify playsession Id - player callbacks threaded - fix nodes - fix settings load - add option to modify last synced date - fix series removal/inconsistencies Comment: Due to changes in the db records, it's recommended to resync TVShows or rebuild the complete DB. last synced date: Don't set this value if there is no good reason. It's actually a debug option, and DON'T set it to long in the past. This could result in VERY long syncs! Couple days is usually more than enough, once again. Don't touch it, if there is no reason and you know what you are doing! @tube82 This version has a bit different (more elegant) approach fixing the episode issue as the one I send you via PM. If you still have problems, please try this version. Sorry for the late reply, but I wanted to try the version for a few days before giving feedback. I didn't experience the double episode problem again, so it appears to be fixed. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
