As of 4.9 multiple db connections were added so increasing this value to much could have negative effects on Ram usage. As it could be 5x your value or in some cases from a beta standpoint 20x your value. Will try to update when more info is available. Performace tweaks Database cache size Sets the amount of data that the database will hold in memory at once, per database file. A larger value may help improve Emby Server performance. Requires a server restart to take effect. If you have the available RAM you should set the database cache size to 1.5 to 2 times your library.db size. Navigate to your platform Emby programdata folder and look in the data folder to see its size. You can find your server info on the dashboard three dot menu. App Settings- Database

Awesome, that worked for me <3

If you do not want to use the naming rule you have can use the plugin. As your example will not work do to the rule and can't be in different folders. Each version must begin with the folder name, followed by " - ".

I put the VM HUB into modem mode now i can connect from my phone using mobile data

Ah - so that's why it's not working then. Because you are using a 3rd party router (the netgear) - you need to put the VM Hub into Modem mode - which then basically passes through your internet connection directly into the Netgear - use the 'Internet' connection on the back of it. With your current setup - you'll have all sorts of horrible double NAting going on and I suspect general internet problems. Once connected like below - THEN your netgear will work line a normal router - and you can add the emby port forwarding etc Help_L3_T4_S8_A1_MODEM_MODE_HUB_3 | Virgin Media VM Cable/Fibre > VM Hub (Modem mode) > Ethernet cable > Netgear (Internet Port) > Port 1 > Ethernet cable > Network Switch < Emby Server

I'd love to see this as well. Genre is my starting point when I want to listen to something but don't know what. Showing Artist next seems like a logical progression to me. I also find that the current setting is not helpful for genres with a large number of albums. This was literally my only issue when weighing up whether to go with Emby; I only use it for music and everything else works exactly as I'd hoped it would.

Correct. If your reverse-proxy is handling this for you, which i presume it is. Then this is all you need in your Emby config: "Handled by reverse proxy"

Considering TVDB, TMDB, OMDB and TVMaze list it as a TV show - you can't. You can either fill the metadata manually and lock the item or rename video file to S01E01-E05 and scrape it as a series and get all data automatically. Edit: You can also append/adjust such created NFO accordingly and put it back in your movie library afterwards if you're keen of having it there.

Gotify Notifications Plugin Gotify notifications for your Emby server.

So this plugin totally relies on the development of the Pushover plugin (see credits below). In the event of an Emby Server update breaking the plugin, I will do my best to try and fix it and will release an update on the Github repo. ## Credits This is a shameful slight mod of the Pushover plugin for Emby Server written by LukePulverenti [Luke] so all thanks to him and the Emby Server team. I take no credits for this. And of course big thanks to Gotify as well.

There's 3 issues I'm currently facing with the Trakt plugin as it is now. The plugin is trying to sync data for users who don't have the plugin set up. There's a lot of the following error in the logs when I run the "Import Playstates from Trakt" scheduled task, one for each user I have that doesn't have the plugin set up (i.e. they have their input field for "Authentication PIN" empty). 2023-02-05 14:14:34.825 Error Trakt: Error syncing trakt data for user <username here> *** Error Report *** Version: 4.8.0.21 Command line: /app/emby/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /config -ffdetect /app/emby/ffdetect -ffmpeg /app/emby/ffmpeg -ffprobe /app/emby/ffprobe -restartexitcode 3 Operating system: Linux version 5.15.0-58-generic (buildd@lcy02-amd64-101) (gcc (Ubuntu 11.3.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.3.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.38) #64-Ubuntu Framework: .NET 6.0.8 OS/Process: x64/x64 Runtime: app/emby/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Data path: /config Application path: /app/emby MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: MediaBrowser.Model.Net.HttpException: BadRequest at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsyncInternal(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpClientManager.CoreHttpClientManager.SendAsync(HttpRequestOptions options, String httpMethod) at Trakt.Api.TraktApi.PostToTrakt(String url, Object data, CancellationToken cancellationToken, TraktUser traktUser) at Trakt.Api.TraktApi.RefreshUserAuth(TraktUser traktUser, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Trakt.Api.TraktApi.SetRequestHeaders(HttpRequestOptions options, TraktUser traktUser, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Trakt.Api.TraktApi.GetFromTrakt(String url, TraktUser traktUser, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Trakt.Api.TraktApi.SendGetAllWatchedMoviesRequest(TraktUser traktUser, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at Trakt.ScheduledTasks.SyncFromTraktTask.SyncTraktDataForUser(User user, Double currentProgress, CancellationToken cancellationToken, IProgress`1 progress, Double percentPerUser) at Trakt.ScheduledTasks.SyncFromTraktTask.Execute(CancellationToken cancellationToken, IProgress`1 progress) Source: Emby.Server.Implementations TargetSite: Void MoveNext() Running the "Export Library to Trakt" scheduled task fails with "Error Trakt: traktUser is either null or has no linked MB account".

These folders are all part of the same library, and I'm only sharing one out of the 3 folders in that library, but all 3 show up in that list of folders to be excluded from being synced with Trakt. For example, here's the folders they have access to: Image But, here's what they see under the user Trakt settings: Image I'd expect the folders for private content to not show up in that list since it's not shared with them and they're not supposed to know about their existence imo. Thanks for the help in advance export_library_to_trakt.log

Yes as plugins are/should be set to server versioning for compatibility depending on the dev and if they truly support beta release.

Adding it again, having manual sort would be fantastic! I'm going to add to this, having a way of displaying a collection on the home screen? Say you had a trending movie collection built off imdb, tmdb, trakt of popular movies and/or shows. Having a random sort option with this collection then be able to have this as a strip on the home screen would be fantastic. Also if you had timed collections for hollidays and being able to display these on the home screen would be great.

Hi, we could do something like this, based on your current watch position in the show.

Hello Luke, this setting, that the check mark was set has shown effect. There were no playback errors during the first test and the subtitles were also displayed. Since I do not have so much time today I will test it tomorrow more extensively. Since I still have a film in memory, which also had playback problems. Will report soon...

No it doesn't. the album tag doesn't need to match the album folder name.

I was responding to happy2play because his test did not match yours.

Again, Emby doesn't provide any content of any form* - it provides software for you to organise, record and watch your own content, which may be ripped from DVD or Bluray, or whatever source you choose, or broadcast over the air (you need a tuner such as the HDHomeRun or a Hauppauge) or as Internet stream (you need an account with an IPTV provider) or recorded from any live source. When you have what you want of those, Emby can offer them all up to you on more or less any connectable device in a reasonably uniform way. And it does this without requiring you and your users to log in via a Plex server where they can monitor you... Paul * To be strictly correct, Emby has a channel of its own called The Emby Show - News from the Devs with (currently) four videos about interesting technical matters.

I attach here the log for debug of this problem before going back to 7.x. Thanks a lot kodi.log

8.x frequently tells me that the resource is not available on play. I have to quit kodi on android tv and restart to make it work. So the problem seems something is addon connection after a standby or something similar. The problem persists with both path substitution on or off in addon settings. Subs problem is still there. I'll revert to more reliable 9.x

Ich habe jetzt mal die Browsereinstellungen geändert. War ein guter Tip da mal zu schauen. Mein Dank an ebr & GrimReaper

What @rbjtech said is the best way. If for some reason it's not possible your only other choice is do to double forward the packets. You would have to setup port forwarding from the VM to port 8096 of the Netgear router IP. Then you setup the Netgear port forwarding to forward the WAN 8096 port to the Emby server's IP using port 8096. In a nut shell, if you can't remove excess NATs on your LAN, you need to port forward them manually instead. Carlo

Thank you for your prompt response, I'm somewhat glad it is not my setup and actually a device limitation problem from the fire tv. I will try to find a shield pro in that case, hopefully it fixes my problem.

Good day, We update the community forum, if anything not working as normal, please let us know. Thanks all. My best

I would also like to add, I've been around since the mediabrowser days, and have turned several others onto emby and really appreciate what you guys do and how well it all runs these days. Keep up the good work.

This is one of the Emby UI questions I have never been able to settle for myself: how to take a big box set and have the ability to play just Disc "X". I have a different box set that's tagged and grouped and stored as one big album, but one can only START playback at the beginning of Disc X, without the ability to have Emby stop at the end of just that one disc.

I think the album tag of his tracks all contain the disc number, and this is what makes them separate albums, so that's why he's moving them up a level.

Thanks. Can you let me know here once the limit had been removed so I can test? I'll admit, I've been pretty impressed with the progress of both the Roku app once the Emby team took on serious development, and Emby itself. Since, well, always. I've been a lifetime supporter, what... 8 years now? 10? And a user from before it was Emby. And I used the other Roku app (Blue Neon?) from before there was an "official" app. I loved Blue Neon, and let go grudgingly, but the unified experience across Roku, Android, and Theater is the way to go. Now that I think of it, were you not the original developer (or one of them) of Blue Neon? I know it was community driven. I have some bells ringing about that. But I'm getting old, and I was not nice to my brain in the 80's and 90's. Sorry, I get long winded. There is very little I have to complain about with either the Roku app, or Emby itself. 99% of everything I've ever brought up over the years got fixed or added. The only thing Luke ever told me no on was exposing more info to the public API (for my Linux update script). And because of you, Erb, Luke, and the rest of the team, is exactly why I became a lifetime supporter and a die hard Emby fan. And why Plex has never got a cent from me. Just want to say thanks, and keep up the good work!!! I'm not shy about bugs and feature request, the fact I'm not on here more is a testament of just how good a job you all are doing!

Gotcha - thanks - I will pull those 26 disc folders all up one level and rescan, when I am back to the server computer, and report back.

Exactly the same here. Webhooks work fine with the test, and without limits selected, but does not work with limits set. Emby Server 4.7.11.0. Webhooks Plugin 1.0.25.0 EDIT: Just wanted to add that it just worked for me with Recordings, but that is the only one that works. Another Edit: I just discovered that with only TV and Movies selected, the webhook works when playing a Recording as above and also Music. It shouldn't activate the Webhooks with Recordings or Music with my selections, but it does. TV and Movies, which I want, does not send the Webhooks.

Did you miss "The idea of the reverse-proxy is that it should handle all the SSL certs for all your different subdomains, so that the backend services don't need to."? Emby doesn't need a cert unless you are using encryption within the LAN.

Posting back because I finally figured it out... I was missing the following packages on my server: libnvidia-decode-470-server libnvidia-encode-470-server Once I installed those, restarted docker/emby docker I was able to see transcode options in the emby settings. I was also able to verify I can play a video that gets transcoded, and was able to see the process from nvidia-smi. For what it's worth, I followed the nvidia install directions from here: https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/install-guide.html#docker. That got the nvidia headless drivers installed and working correctly with docker. However it did not install the decode/encode libraries. Not sure if that was because I chose a headless version of the driver or what. BUT my issue appears to be resolved. I do still have the "Message": "Failed to open the drm device /dev/dri/renderD128" error being reported in my HW logs, but HW transcoding does indeed work. Thank you for the help and suggestions!

If HAProxy is your RP and has certs for the various subdomains, then Emby should sit behind this and you would not need to generate a Synology cert for Emby - just use the HAProxy cert for your Emby subdomain. The idea of the reverse-proxy is that it should handle all the SSL certs for all your different subdomains, so that the backend services don't need to.

After some other issues with the Cube (that may or may not be related) Amazon are sending me a replacement. That is due to arrive tomorrow - so once I've got it set up I'll be able to see if the problem remains. If I still have it I'll try and send a file for testing. I'll let you know once I've tried it. Thanks for your assistance so far.

Hi, thanks for sharing your results. Yes, improvements to this are coming.

Thank you! I will make a feature request for Emby to add the additional statuses

You have to admit though, the present tuning speed is still quicker than the time taken to create stuff to fix it and then not implement it.

I forgot about those logs. I want to spend some more time mapping my new playlist. I'm done with the old provider. The freezing was just intolerable. As soon as I finish, I will revisit the issue and send logs. Thanks..

Not sure what really is different, but I reinstalled everything and now it is running smooth with 4.7.8.0 and 2.0.83g app

FINALLY found it!! I had a copy of the Unaired Pilot. The short that they did in college. It was showing as a Season 0, but didnt have a tvdb id. I moved it into an Extras via creating a Season 0, and that solved the problem... I understand the reasoning, but this definitely could have used some form of debug messaging.

Comme le dit massilliaman Posted October 21, 2022 salut c'est une traduction qui porte a confusion faut créer une médiatheque (TV) c'est celle la pour les series TV ....

Hi, bringing this topic hopefully back to life as this is still an issue in 2023. I use the android client and the app refuses to upload my camera videos,it seems to be an issue over 600mB or so. It makes the feature unusable as I cannot be certain that my memories have been synced to the server. I regularly delete and use google photos for the actual viewing on the phone with the full size backups on my server. But this is unfortunatley not the case for my camera videos. Can we increase the file size limit to something crazy like 128GB or so just so we dont have to deal with this issue anymore?

Channels DVR would be your best bet but when I tried this, I was pretty dissapointed. Channels can't import every channel from every provider, and they have to react to problems (like a channel not working) after they come up. Cable is more reliable IMHO. Maybe look into USTVNow and see if you can get a m3u list. I think Kodi has an addon for it. Its just an idea and its something you will have to chase down. I chose cable over all of the alternatives but I have 2 maybe 3 cable providers in my area.

Hallo, Es gibt ein kleines Nebenprojekt, nämlich einen Alexa-Skill, der derzeit die deutsche Sprache behandelt. Wir suchen derzeit deutschsprachige Personen, die folgende Voraussetzungen mitbringen. 1. Eine Domain, die Ihren Emby-Server erreicht. 2. Ein SSL-Zertifikat. (wir können dabei helfen, wenn Sie eine Domain haben) 3. Jedes Amazon Echo-Gerät. (wenn Ihr Gerät einen Bildschirm hat, der noch besser ist, aber nicht zwingend erforderlich). 4. Optional: ein FireTV-Stick. Wenn Sie denken, dass Sie daran interessiert sein könnten, an einer Beta-Alexa (deutsche Sprache) teilzunehmen, senden Sie mir bitte eine Nachricht, und wir können weiter sprechen. Benjamin

I'm not going to bother to update for the beta because there's quite some significant code change that would make the plugin not work on the current stable version. While I could make a separate version just for the beta, I don't really have time to keep maintaining it against whatever breaking changes the beta could introduce. For example, the official Pushover plugin (which is what this plugin is based on) has been updated lately for 4.8 beta, but is already broken on the latest beta update (aka can't get to its setting page). I will definitely update this plugin once the stable release is out though.

But back to my initial point: Emby does not work as it should for audiobooks. The tracks in Album View are presented as though they are podcast episodes; embedded chapters are in a different location than separate tracks; Continue Listening shows the track name rather than the book name; it is too easy to delete/rearrange audiobook tracks in the Play Queue; Collections don't pull metadata from a source that has audiobook series metadata; tagged Narrators don't populate correctly; no "Read/Unread/Unfinished" filter exists... among other reasons. Arguing here doesn't change those things.

Would it be possible to add the bitrate and frequency e.g 24bit 192khz and file type. When playing an album. I'm used to this in other music app players. If it is possible can I get pointed in the right direction.

Hi, yes it's possible for the future. thanks.
