Jator 10 Posted December 31, 2024 Posted December 31, 2024 New to Emby and trying to see if there is a guide to install Comskip. I used Channels DVR normally and that has comskip built in. With Emby, appears you have to configure comskip as a 3rd party application? My server is a Synology DS 1520+ running DSM 7.2. I've installed Comskip from Package Manager, but unsure how to configure Emby to initiate comskip to scan recordings so that clients will automatically skip when watching recorded shows? I've learned that even though Synology NAS are based off linux, you can't use, as example, use normal linux guidelines to set things up, so hoping someone on this forum has successfully setup an Emby server with a fully functional comskip setup? TIA.
Jator 10 Posted January 2, 2025 Author Posted January 2, 2025 6 hours ago, Luke said: Re: Thanks Luke. I did come across that after posting this inquiry and made a lot of headway, but you'll now find I have posted in that thread as I have some permission questions as I can manually scan but can't get Emby to automatically scan after a recording is done. 1
Jator 10 Posted February 16, 2025 Author Posted February 16, 2025 Evening all. So back to trying to wrestle this comskip issue to the ground. Basically back to the original problems I had, I can run comskip manually but it won't trigger, and my ComSkipper won't show up in my plugins section. For this post, I'm going to focus on ComSkipper. I have the .dll placed in the same directories as MovieDd.dll is with the same owner/group privileges: Not sure where else it would need to go, I did a search for MovieDb.dll to make sure I was putting the ComSkipper.dll plugin in the correct director(y/ies)? I restart the server (I have to stop at the Package Center level as I can't find a "restart" in the setting area, i'm waiting for the 'doh' moment when someone points me to what is likely right in front of me) and there's still no option to configure ComSkipper in the plugin section: Any obvious things I am missing that anyone can point me in the right direction?
Jator 10 Posted February 16, 2025 Author Posted February 16, 2025 Adding some additional info. Searched the logs and confirm that ComSkipper.dll is not loading per Emby, but can't figure out why: 2025-02-16 00:00:00.034 Info App: Emby Server Version: 4.8.8.0 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Emby Command line: /volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /var/packages/EmbyServer/var -ffdetect /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffdetect -ffmpeg /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffprobe -nolocalportconfig -ignore_vaapi_enabled_flag -pidfile /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/EmbyServer.pid -defaultdirectory /volume1/Public -updatepackage emby-server-synology72_{version}_x86_64.spk Operating system: Linux version 4.4.302+ (root@build5) (gcc version 12.2.0 (GCC) ) #72806 SMP Thu Sep 5 13:44:44 CST 2024 Framework: .NET 6.0.25 OS/Process: x64/x64 Runtime: volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Data path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var Application path: /volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Logs path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/logs 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Cache path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/cache 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Internal metadata path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/metadata 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Transcoding temporary files path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/transcoding-temp 2025-02-16 00:00:00.035 Info App: Plugins: Backup & Restore 1.7.0.0 Bluray Folder Support 1.0.2.0 Cinema Intros 1.0.47.0 DLNA 1.4.7.0 Dvd Folder Support 1.0.0.0 Emby Guide Data 1.0.17.0 Fanart.tv 1.0.16.0 M3U TV Tuner 1.0.38.0 MovieDb 1.8.0.0 MusicBrainz 1.0.24.0 Nfo Metadata 1.0.82.0 OMDb 1.0.21.0 Open Subtitles 1.0.63.0 Port Mapper 1.2.7.0 Studio Images 1.0.3.0 TheAudioDb 1.0.18.0 TheTVDB 1.5.8.0 Webhooks 1.0.35.0 XmlTV 1.2.0.0 2025-02-16 00:07:21.820 Error HttpClient: <s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" s:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"><s:Body><s:Fault><faultcode>s:Client</faultcode><faultstring>UPnPError</faultstring><detail><UPnPError xmlns="urn:schemas-upnp-org:control-1-0"><errorCode>501</errorCode><errorDescription>ActionFailed</errorDescription></UPnPError></detail></s:Fault></s:Body></s:Envelope> 2025-02-16 00:07:21.825 Error HttpClient: <s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" s:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"><s:Body><s:Fault><faultcode>s:Client</faultcode><faultstring>UPnPError</faultstring><detail><UPnPError xmlns="urn:schemas-upnp-org:control-1-0"><errorCode>501</errorCode><errorDescription>ActionFailed</errorDescription></UPnPError></detail></s:Fault></s:Body></s:Envelope> 2025-02-16 00:07:21.826 Error PortMapper: Error creating port map

Luke 42077 Posted February 17, 2025 Posted February 17, 2025 You're running version 4.8.8 of the server, but the plugin is compiled for 4.8.10. You need to either update server, or get a version of the plugin that is compiled against an older emby nuget package (the developer of the plugin will know what that means).

You need to either update server, or get a version of the plugin that is compiled against an older emby nuget package (the developer of the plugin will know what that means). <sigh>Ok, so uninstalled from Package Center and downloaded the install file from Emby directly, and when I try and install it, I get this warning,,,,, I even tried to download the beta version (4.9.0.38) and it gives me the same warning as above. So, mismatch of ComSkipper.dll with version I can install in Synology, or if I try and download the latest version of Emby to align with ComSkipper.dll version, I then encounter a mismatch o0f Emby and DSM version of Syno0logy. It's things like this that keep the masses tied to windows (not Emby's fault per se, but still the irony isn't lost on me).....
Jator 10 Posted February 17, 2025 Author Posted February 17, 2025 So found an older version that works with 4.8.8. Switching focus to getting Comskip to trigger upon recording finishing. Will circle back if I still can't solve it. Thanks for the guidance. 1
Jator 10 Posted February 17, 2025 Author Posted February 17, 2025 So switching my request for help to now getting Comskip to actually work through post processing script. Here's my settings in Emby Server: I can manually run comskip using the following command and get a EML successfully created: sudo comskip --ini=comskip.ini "/volume1/media/tv/Today (2019)/Season 73/Today S73E129.ts" Here's the setup I have for comskip and comskip.ini: And here's the error I got when I recorded the above TV show: 2025-02-17 08:59:59.999 Info VideoEncoder: ProcessRun 'Encoding c08600': Stopping ffmpeg process with q command for /volume1/media/tv/Today (2019)/Season 73/Today S73E129.ts 2025-02-17 09:00:01.784 Info VideoEncoder: AppendExtraLogData - Read graph file: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/logs/recording-conversion-c0860041-6cac-4563-b986-e2796ef1b559_1graph.txt 2025-02-17 09:00:01.784 Info VideoEncoder: AppendExtraLogData - Deserialized GraphData fileStream: 27.000 bytes Graph Count: 0 2025-02-17 09:00:01.784 Info VideoEncoder: AppendExtraLogData - File Deleted 2025-02-17 09:00:02.131 Info VideoEncoder: ProcessRun 'Encoding c08600' Process exited with code 0 - Succeeded 2025-02-17 09:00:02.132 Debug VideoEncoder: VideoEncoder.OnFfMpegProcessExited: Disposing stream resources 2025-02-17 09:00:02.132 Info LiveTV: Recording stopped: /volume1/media/tv/Today (2019)/Season 73/Today S73E129.ts 2025-02-17 09:00:02.132 Info MediaSourceManager: Live stream 7a8768321aea3ae5d59a3d956aafd633 consumer count is now 0 2025-02-17 09:00:02.132 Info MediaSourceManager: Closing live stream 06044cf0e6f93cdae5f285c9ecfaaeb4_01413a525b3a9622ce6fdf19f7dde354_7a8768321aea3ae5d59a3d956aafd633 2025-02-17 09:00:02.150 Info SharedHttpPipelineSource: Closing SharedHttpPipelineSource 2025-02-17 09:00:02.150 Info SharedHttpPipelineSource: Deleting temp files 2025-02-17 09:00:02.150 Info MediaSourceManager: Live stream 06044cf0e6f93cdae5f285c9ecfaaeb4_01413a525b3a9622ce6fdf19f7dde354_7a8768321aea3ae5d59a3d956aafd633 closed successfully 2025-02-17 09:00:02.586 Info LiveTV: Running recording post processor /volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip --ini=/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip.ini "/volume1/media/tv/Today (2019)/Season 73/Today S73E129.ts" 2025-02-17 09:00:02.586 Info LiveTV: ProcessRun 'Recording 768824' Execute: /volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip --ini=/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip.ini "/volume1/media/tv/Today (2019)/Season 73/Today S73E129.ts" 2025-02-17 09:00:02.687 Error LiveTV: ProcessRun 'Recording 768824' Process error: *** Error Report *** Version: 4.8.8.0 Command line: /volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system/EmbyServer.dll -programdata /var/packages/EmbyServer/var -ffdetect /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffdetect -ffmpeg /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffmpeg -ffprobe /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/bin/ffprobe -nolocalportconfig -ignore_vaapi_enabled_flag -pidfile /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/EmbyServer.pid -defaultdirectory /volume1/Public -updatepackage emby-server-synology72_{version}_x86_64.spk -noautorunwebapp Operating system: Linux version 4.4.302+ (root@build5) (gcc version 12.2.0 (GCC) ) #72806 SMP Thu Sep 5 13:44:44 CST 2024 Framework: .NET 6.0.25 OS/Process: x64/x64 Runtime: volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system/System.Private.CoreLib.dll Processor count: 4 Data path: /var/packages/EmbyServer/var Application path: /volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer/system System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (2): An error occurred trying to start process '/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip ' with working directory '/volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer'.

Luke 42077 Posted February 20, 2025 Posted February 20, 2025 Quote System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (2): An error occurred trying to start process '/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/comskip/comskip ' with working directory '/volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer'. No such file or directory The server is unable to start the executable you configured. That means either the file doesn't exist, or the server is being denied access to it, or being denied access to execute it. Assuming the file is there, isn't likely an issue of permissions, so just get that resolved and then you should be good.

Not sure if you saw in my post before "Bueller" but I posted screen shots of the files and their permissions set as well as the path in the configuration section of Emby. I did CHOWN to emby:emby and permissions are consistent with other Emby files as that was an issue I was having last time I tried to wrestle this to the ground. On paper, as far as I can tell, everything should be working. Reposting the screenshot as my last post was rather lengthy given the error log I shared:
Luke 42077 Posted February 20, 2025 Posted February 20, 2025 One thing you could do is try creating an sh script and see if that is able to execute
Jator 10 Posted February 21, 2025 Author Posted February 21, 2025 So finally found a workaround. I created a subfolder (/volume1/media/comskip) and placed both comskip and comskip.ini in there. The /volume1/media/ houses 3 other subfolders, /tv, /movies, /imports. I set the tv and movie subfolders as my default recording locations. I setup this folder as a "shared folder" and gave both emby and sc-comskip system user roles access to read and write. I then modified Emby post processing to the following: Now things are processing appropriately. Clearly I had a permission issue, I'm guessing it's the folder permissions within the /volume1/@appdata structure, but since I couldn't modify permission in shared folders, I wasn't going to try and tackle that via CLI, I'm not anywhere near knowledgeable to try and tackle that nor do I want to break anything inadvertently. Thanks again for the suggestions, it ultimately led me to finding a workable solution. 1
