Also, It would be cool if we have various m3u lists and have the option to choose/assign each m3u list for each user.. Example. In user settings we can choose which library to give them for VOD so this shouldnt be hard enough to do it for live tv too no? USER 1 - Playlist 1 - Playlist 2 - Playlist 3 USER 2 - Playlist 3 USER 3 - Playlist 1 - Playlist 3 Etc etc.... *** Delete this message from another topic I opened because I posted it by accident there

No one wants to pay for anything and no one wants ads. Yet, everyone wants a job that they are paid for and no one seems to see the conflict there... Just food for thought.

You're joking, right? In your 1 minute log there were 56 different IP addresses hitting your server.

TheTVDB now supports more alternative orders than just Aired/Absolute/DVD. Can Emby query these additional orders and add them as options? Two examples of shows I've seen this used are Re:Zero which has a "Director's Cut" display order and Money Heist which has a "Netflix" order. https://thetvdb.com/series/re-zero-starting-life-in-another-world https://thetvdb.com/series/la-casa-de-papel

At the moment, if I assign artwork to Animation in a MOVIE library, then the TV library also has the same image for Animation. Id like my MOVIES library genre artwork to have different artwork to the TV one.

Yep, I can confirm that it works with jail updated to 13.3 (still on 13.1 host)

I am doing that now. I don't have Kodi installed on my PC, so I'm installing it and setting it up. I've reviewed the advancedsettings.xml files on my LibreElec client, and as best as I can tell they are default files. I have not modified them in anyway. I've also disabled path substitution in E4K. That did not resolve the issue. E4K next-gen .25 on my rpi4 LibreElec installation works perfectly fine. But .26/.27 does not. Weird. I'll report back after getting Kodi setup on my PC.

In the Albumartist, and Artist field you need to separate each artist with a semi colon If you are using Musicbrainz tags, make sure they are all separated with semicolons as well in the musicbrainz_artistid or musicbrainz_albumartistid

When upgraded to emby-server-rpm_4.8.8.0_x86_64.rpm version of emby, there was no entry in the KDE Plasma Application Launcher/Kick-off menu I uninstalled that version, and i have now just installed and tryed the Beta version of Emby Version 4.9.0.23 using the file emby-server-flatpak_4.9.0.23_x86_64.flatpak flatpak everything seems to now be working perfectly fine My TV set can now play both videos and audio files just fine directly from the PC Emby HTML Interface The only issue i now have is that i cant get my TV to display .jpg or .png images I will open a new separate help forum thread for this btw, fantastic software !

This behaviour hasn't changed really, but you can easily work with it to achieve what you want. It's all about how you structure your media folders: Within the share you mount, you should have another folder that then contains your media folders, such as: //sharename/media/movies/<movies> //sharename/media/tvshows/<tvshows> On the emby host, you want to mount the /media portion wherever (say /mnt/media for example), with the /movies and /tvshows folders within being created and removed by the mount. When unmounted, those two folders should disappear leaving an empty /mnt/media folder. From here, if you add the folder /mnt/media/tvshows to emby, and then the share gets dismounted; emby will see that folder missing entirely instead of being empty; so it will not remove the media from your libraries. This is exactly what I do, as my media is mounted via samba. Works great.

You may also want to check into IPv4 & IPv6 connectivity in case one of those is being blocked or dropped and the browser is automatically preferring the other one but Emby is not.

It would be quite amazing if this feature was added.

Just some feedback that the communication rewrite seems to have eliminated the crashing between episodes when "Play From Here" is used. Everything is much faster as well. Amazing work, thank you!

I guess you need to upgrade your Memory, to accommodate you "There are quite a lot of users."

I have libraries Movies, TV, Music Videos, Music and Music Videos. The folder.jpg that is the GENRE artwork is currently shared across the libraries. So categories of genre like Action, Adventure, Animation, Comedy, Crime, Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi, Western, etc. My Movie library may have different GENRE cover art for ANIMATION compared to ANIMATION in my TV library. For example, the artwork for movies may have movie animation characters on it and the tv version has tv characters. Similarly for Music and Music Videos - I would like my music genres to be able to be different from my Music Videos library. Lastly for audiobooks, although these have categories for comedy, drama, classic literature, mystery, sci-fi etc, the art work for these are more title based without characters on the cover art from a programme or movie. Looking at the emby fiel system I can see that the genres are pretty much in one folder, so just a case of having a separate folder for each library type?

I honestly did not realize that this was a link, lol, being in IT for 45 years you would think I would....

Some channels lost their link in the channel mappings, thanks so much, I relinked them and voilà!

A good German source is KinoCheck

Here are the logs and more screenshots showing the issue hardware_detection-63853382300.txt

The log looks fine, no issues reported... 2024-06-07 17:54:57.331 T:955 info <general>: VideoPlayer::OpenFile: /emby_addon_mode/tvshows/3afd0834e4a64a5099b5474ab4f49324/493020/745472/791666/e-791666-9caacb6244261eec5a093775257830a2-813-7335-0-1-0-0-0-1-h264-1348659-aac-192000--Babylon_5___S00E06.mkv 2024-06-07 17:54:57.388 T:1002 info <general>: EMBY.hooks.player: [ onPlay ] 2024-06-07 17:55:46.221 T:955 info <general>: CVideoPlayer::CloseFile() ... but I miss some records in the log. Sounds like Kodi just stopped the playback. Quite surprised, this should happen on .26/.27. Kodi has playback control at this point, also the emby server log shows, Kodi requested the stream (actually only a HEAD request). Are you sure this started with .26/.27, makes no sense to me at the moment. I need a debug log for review.

I replaced the video card in it with a radeon RX 5500 series card. huge difference. transcoding hardly causes a blip now. and I can see all of the hardware decoders now under advanced settings. Thanks.

What version of ET? Looks to be fixed at least in Desktop. Just downloaded app store update and appears fixed in 1.1.566.0.

@quickmicI missed the 10.0.26 update. I upgraded from 10.0.25 to 10.0.27. I did a local database reset after the update. Unfortunately, no media would play. I rolled back to 10.0.26. Media playback still would not start. I rolled back to 10.0.25. That resolved the issue. The attached logs are from playback attempts after the upgrade from 10.0.25 to 10.0.27. kodi.log kodi.old.log embyserver.txt

We have a new windows app coming soon that will handle this better, so stay tuned.

@serpi That worked really well, it did exactly what you said it would. I'm going to play with it some more. It should be pretty easy to make a batch script or AutoHotkey script that creates a STRM file of a file.

Little update: Yesterday I have installed the latest version of Emby I think it is 4.8.8.0. I have waited minimal of half a day to a day. As far I can see at the moment it still goes good. I hope it stays that way, otherwise I come back again with hopefully log files, so you guys can look at them possibly tell me what I can do to prevent it from happening again next time. I think that I did a clean install did from version 4.8.6.0.

We are not going to arbitrarily choose to end support for the FreeBSD package, so you have nothing to worry about from us. We will continue to produce it for as long as we can and will only stop when something forces us to. For example, I suspect that support from external tools that we depend on will start to drop off, then sooner or later something will break, and that's when it might be the end of it. But hopefully that doesn't happen anytime soon.

For the full setup Just converted from ESX enterprise to Proxmox 8.2 4 Dell Rack Servers 2 Equlaogic Sans 1 Equalogic drive shelf (not used for now) Emby is running in Docker on a SLES15 VM The VM is directly connected to the San via 2 dedicated 10gb links Storage multipath controlled via dell host tools Emby is running in Docker using the image image lscr.io/linuxserver/emby:latest Emby also has Premiere avtivated

Resolved in 4.8.8.0 FYI im using the docker image lscr.io/linuxserver/emby:latest Just for laughs rolled back to 4.8.7.0 and the issue returned Went back to 4.8.8.0 issue fixed again Thanks for your help

Hi, yes it will come. We’ll be looking at it post 4.9. Thanks.

Hi, support for tvdb orders is planned for future updates, thanks.

I just wrote a simple python script to check for any active emby users within the last 10 minutes. You just need to update the top 2 variables (api token and emby url). I call this script from my backup script, so that i can avoid shutting down all my docker containers while people are using emby. I don't bother with the Sessions endpoint as it's not needed. Simply checking the LastActivityDate works very effectively. import json import os import requests import dateutil.parser as dp from datetime import datetime, timedelta, timezone ''' Checks for any active emby users within last x minutes. Prints True if active users found, otherwise False. ''' api_token = "<api token>" emby_url = "<emby url>" endpoint = "Users" minutes = 10 url = os.path.join(emby_url, "emby", endpoint, "?api_key=" + api_token) headers = {'Accept': 'application/json'} response = requests.get(url, headers=headers) json_data = json.loads(response.text) now = datetime.now(timezone.utc) active_status = False for user in json_data: last_active = dp.isoparse(user["LastActivityDate"]) if now - timedelta(minutes=minutes) <= last_active <= now: active_status = True break print(active_status)

Could the alternate order option please be added? Right now, DVD order and absolute order can be selected, but Alternate is missing. Below is an example of a show on TVDB with an alternate order. Thanks!

It's not about and not depending on the server. The new Windows app is ready for beta, and that's - well, how should I say that - that's the point in the timeline where we are standing.

Several threads before we asked for options to be moved to transcoding section, especially 2 fpr gpu control, didn't happen, luke responded that we can use settings in xml file, after a month he disabled those settings in xml aslo. Over a year we are writing about this and being completely ignored.
