Any else having issue with the SMB in the latest beta `4.9.1.36-beta`

I can connect via a SMB browser without authentication but with Emby it fails, even if I do add credentials it still fails.

HI there, can you please provide a specific example?

How to Report a Problem

Thanks !

All sorted. I got the issue after the latest update, rebooted the device and all is good.

Not sure if it's an issue with Emby or if it's my device, but every few hours if I'm accessing a SMB it fails. Local plugged in devices are accessed fine. I have to restart Emby for the SMB link to work, SMB's work fine in file apps.

Hi, are you sure you configured your smb credentials in the options for the library?

Yes, 100% did and it has connected and played perfectly fine before. I've done it again and saved so I'll monitor it and see what happens. Could it possibly loose the credentials causing the issue?

[Luke 42077]

I don't think so but please let us know how that goes. Thanks.

Seems I have an the same issue again, a restart of the server solved the issue, ie I can then stream from my SMB mount. The device was still connected to the network, it could still access my SMB mounts in other apps.

Hi, that log looks OK. what exactly happened?

It fails to play anything from my SMB mount point.  I get the usual 'no valid streams available' and it skips to the next file, which of course then fails too.  I have to restart the server app for it to stream again.

[Luke 42077]

OK that’s odd. We’ll take a look at it. Thanks.
