strange, emby stops playing overnight, just stops...

Emby just randomly stops playing the stream from the server, I have checked and see errors I have no clue how to resolve, and help is appreciated.

Thanks,

embyserver.txt

Why is there an undefined in the file location name on line 205 of the embyserve.txt?  Did the backup folder not get setup in the filesystem?

I thought it was, since there were no errors, but I went through and could not find it so I just created one and pointed Backup & Restore to it. Will this actually do anything to stop the behavior of stopping the 'next media' from playing through?

HI, are you using the devices screen to delete the device from Emby server while it's trying to play? That could cause a problem.

[icedragonslair 10]

No, but I figured out that the one thing that would not play through was corrupt in the beginning of the file, replaced it and all is well now.

 

Thank you both for helping this old guy...lol

Nope still doing it, and I reiterate that this is new behavior over the last month while nothing has changed on the server. this has always played through and this naming convention has not changed. 

New example: this always now stops after last episode of season 1 and will not play first episode of season 2 on its own

to specify:

After this activity, it stops without notice - "Icedragonslair has finished playing Murder, She Wrote - Funeral at Fifty-Mile on SHIELD 5/25/2024, 3:41:43 AM"

I have to manually restart the next episode - "Icedragonslair is playing Murder, She Wrote - Widow, Weep for Me on SHIELD 5/25/2024, 4:24:14 AM"

Has something changed on the android app to prevent this, as I am exhausted trying to figure this out and it seems to be the nvidia shields that are messing this up, but the settings seem okay.

If you need more info I will respond daily if necessary or sooner if needed.

 

Thank you,

Ice

No idea how to do that, as it only gives me 'up-to-date' 'latest' on my docker info and then when I connect to 'more info' I get a 404 error

Not on the server side, you need to sideload the beta APK onto your device since it was fixed in the beta.

So it was broken in the release but fixed in the beta?

[Lessaj 467]

Yes, I believe the current release is 2.1.10g and it was fixed in 2.1.11 as mentioned on the linked page.

You can also just sign up for the beta app releases in your Google account.
