Snakebait 6 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Hi, The new version 4.5.4.0 was posted on my dashboard over three months ago and Synology has not made it available yet. Is Synology holding it back or is something wrong on my end? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37132 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Hi, updates are installed manually for now until we're listed in the official Synology app store, which we're working on: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But would guess the previous version was shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaj 243 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 @Snakebait For manual installs it's probably better to follow this: Stop the server using the Emby Dashboard Install the update manually using the Synology Package Manger - Manual Install Emby should start automatically Open a web browser.... as the install instructions.

FrostByte 5053 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 You can also remove the old repository from DSM as it will no longer be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snakebait 6 Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 I installed the update without stopping emby server. Should i reinstall the update? Where is the old repository from DSM? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37132 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hi, try shutting down emby server first and then manually installing the update. The old repo is still in the same place but it's staying at 4.4.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omahabrownie 5 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I have had trouble in the past updating the emby server on my synology nas a DS720+. Two different time, after following directions it would not work after the install. The only solution I found was to uninstall it all and start again, which is a big pain because my whole collection must be re-scan into the server and I have to re setup my collections. Is this the way it is always going to work? If it is I will not be updating very often, I paid for this and was hoping updates would be easy. They use to be easy but in the last 6 months I have had nothing but trouble. I would really appreciate some incite on this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plan is that we're going to be in the official Synology app store, and once that happens you'll have easy automatic updates again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omahabrownie 5 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Hi, just have a question, is there a way yet to update emby on my synology nas, a ds720+ without having to redo my repository, without having to re-scan everything again? I have been holding off on updating because the last two times I updated I had to re-scan everything. I followed the rules of shutting the server down first.

Thanks Dave Hi, I don't think a full scan will be needed, but it's hard to guarantee. This was a tricky migration to the new packaging, and also, the older your current server version is, the greater the chances are that it will be needed. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.
