Emby very slow on QNAP NAS TS-963X

[HappyMax 3]

Hi!

After several years I decided to install the Emby-Server App on my NAS. My former Intel NUC Core i5-4250U is scanning my library without any problems. The NAS is performing this very slow. Three folders within 30 minutes, or so. My music folder is about 2.5 TB, is it normal that it takes days to complete the scan? And if done, can your QNAP-app handle this ammount of data?

Thanks a lot

Hi there, please attach the emby server log from when you thought it was slow:

How to Report a Problem

Thanks.

As I removed the app, this isn't possible. Have installed it on a pc again and maybe I'll try it again sometimes. It was a more general kind of question, if the NAS-App is capable to handle this much data.

HI, yes it should be fine on your NAS.

Thanks. I'll give it a try between the years.

I've found the time and everything worked out fine. Thx again!

One last question. Is it possible to copy the "collections" from Emby (PC) to Emby (QNAP)?

HI, please take a look at our backup guide and let us know if this helps:

Configuration Backup

Thx. It doensn't work. I'm sorry.

I've installed the Backup Plugin but the message I get is:

Emby Backup trial has expired.

even though I've installed it today.

As I only want to transfer one collection, it is easier to do it manually. What do you think?

Where do I find this entry?

My config of the old pc is:

Programmdaten	C:\Users\HappyMax\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata
Cache	C:\Users\HappyMax\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\cache
Metadaten	C:\Users\HappyMax\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\metadata
Protokolle	C:\Users\HappyMax\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\logs
Temporäre Transkodierdateien	C:\Users\HappyMax\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\transcoding-temp

What exactly do you mean by collection?

[HappyMax 3]

That's what I mean:

On why not just setup the library again on the new machine?

[HappyMax 3]

The library is already on the NAS, it hadn't changed. In "Sammlungen" or collections are several discs that are new and I wanna listen to them in the future without searching manually.

[HappyMax 3]

Any idea?

[Luke 42077]

OK. no, there isn't really an easy way to move these from one server install to another, sorry.

[HappyMax 3]

Thanks. Bad luck.

I wish you a merry Christmastime and a happy new year.
