Post Processing Delay

[Bill LeDuc 5]

On three occasions Emby live TV recordings have had a strange delay in post processing. I use post processing to change the container from ts to to the mkv using ffmpeg (my copy).. After the recording has completed I find two images for the recording. One is representing the ts file. This will not play I presume because is probably busy with post processing. The second image I am not sure what it represents and it will not play or even open. I have waited hours and nothing changes and yet by the next day I find the conversion complete and everything seems normal. I am using version 4.8.3. I have only seen this since 4.8.2 was available.

Hi there, can you please provide a specific example?

How to Report a Problem

Thanks.

The issue happened while recording iHeartRadio award shembyserver-63847612799-iHeartRadio.txtow from 7:00pm to 9:00pm. Attached is the relevant log file for that period.

I forgot to say that the recording was done on 4/1/24. Also I attached the post processing script. The post processing has been functioning correctly for 2yrs.

The recording stopped and within a fraction of a second your post processing script was executed:

Maybe the issue is that you need to run a library scan after the post processing script has completed.

[TMCsw 249]

Also, is RTM enabled for the library? 

and Is your server really running on a Windows server? or Linux?

[Bill LeDuc 5]

Yes, RTM is enabled and this is a dedicated I7 NUC running Windows 11. I question how well RTM works. When I copy files to a library I have had to manually run a library scan for the files to show up in Emby. It's like it finally notices the change, but it can take a long time. Why is this happening now I have only noticed it recently and I have been live recording for a couple of years. Should Emby doing something in post processing to avoid this and similar issues. Shouldn't Emby do a library scan after post processing. Is there a simple way to force a library scan as part of my post processing?

We've never done this before, but yes it probably makes sense.
