Wouldn't make any sense for synced content. Probably, the currently recorded just appeared in the recently added widget in Kodi. Now they only appear when the recording is finisht. edit: Just checked on another Shield Tv that still runs Next gen 4.3. There I see my active recordings appearing in the widget, With the newer next gen versions (6.04..) this is no longer the case. kodi next gen 4.3...log kodi next gen 6.04...log embyserver.txt Edited August 26, 2021 by heula 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added a movie and an episode of a TV show the other day while the TV was turned off. Kodi was still reachable via the web server (my new way of checking if its "alive" or not). Even though it was active it did not recognize these 2 additions until I restarted Kodi. This was working properly on the previous experimental I believe.

Also, if this happens again and before you restart Kodi, please send a text msg from Emby server to Kodi. The updates are pushed via websocket on runtime. The text-msg tests checks if the websocket connection is still alive. Edited August 26, 2021 by quickmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dml33 23 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hi. I am just using 6.0.4 build 42 (ex8) on a Kodi 18.9 with default Estuary skin. I have seen a couple of issues: In the movie list, when I press "i" to get information about a movie, nothing happens. However, "c" works and, if I choose "Information" from there, the upper part where actors and actresses are displayed is blank, saying "Cast not available". This was working properly with 5.3.2. Still, when I play a movie, the subtitle language is wrong. Instead of the one chosen in Kodi for the default case, another is used. I use external .srt subtitles, as follows: movie.ENG.srt movie.SPA.srt Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrv 88 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) With the old Emby for Kodi plugin I could post a message to the Emby API at /Sessions/{sessionId}/Message (which you can also do by clicking the "Send message" button in the Active Devices section of the Emby dashboard) and the message would show up in the Kodi UI. It worked beautifully. I can't get that to work at all with the next-gen plugin. Is that a known issue? I don't know if it's a bug or if it just hasn't been implemented in the next-gen plugin. I have a lot of home automation that relies on that feature. Edited August 27, 2021 by harrv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making an assumption that you've set Spanish subtitles, then you need to change from movie.SPA.srt to movie.esp.srt or movie.es.srt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stated in the Wiki Subtitles, Emby supports the ISO 639-1 (2 letters) / 639-2 (3 letters) codes for subtitles. Then, you are right, it should not be in capitals (although Emby server actually recognizes it), but "esp" is wrong. For spanish, "spa" or "es" shall be used instead. I am suprised that embyforkodi could be parsing the srt file. I thought that the Emby server could be giving the file+language encapsulated to assure the compatibility among all Emby applications.

Thanks. You're correct, I checked the wrong ISO. One thought, are you using native or addon mode? If using native it should be working straight away. If using addon I think the subtitle needs to be found by the server before you can use if for playback (not sure though..) But it would be easy enough to test to download an srt and place it in the folder, try to initiate playback and check result. If it's not found do a refresh of the episode/movie on the server, when added by Emby server initiate playback again to test if it's available.

The srt files are stored in the server, in the same folder as the corresponding movid. In Emby they are correctly recognized (file and language) and they work perfectly. The only issue with the new 5.x and 6.x embyforkodi is that the subtitle language which is automatically played is not the one set as default in Kodi (English in my case).

Maybe this addon could be used if the problem persists? https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=153783&pid=3020235#pid3020235 Seems to be getting mixed reviews...

Don't know your scripts, but if they use similar commands, should also work. If the message is not received, sounds like a websocket issue. This would also prevent realtime updates from Emby server. Can you send me a kodi.log please. Maybe I find something odd... Do you use the experimental, beta or stable version and on which device is Kodi installed?

In e4k native mode, subtitles are totally under control of native Kodi. In addon mode the (default) language selection is not implemented yet for SRT subtitles. So far, I haven't found a proper way doing it. I'll look into that matter... "Stream" subtitles should work in native and addon mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's useful to know it works for you (even the "send message" through the dashboard doesn't work for me). I am at work now, but I will verify plugin version and repo later tonight (UTC-6) and will provide that info and attach a log if I still can't get it working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the addon mode and the subtitle selection is working like it should for me, if my selected language has a subtitle available (muxed or srt) it will be used. Is this just a fluke?
