Plugin: EmbyIcons release.

[yocker 1588]

EmbyIcons hasn't been tested with the latest beta yet so might not work with that.

[yocker 1588]

Just installed the latest Emby beta for Windows.
EmbyIcons seems to work as it should for it.

[JsinFate 24]

Okay, thank you,

I may try installing it again later today. 

Do you know what: 2026-05-27 11:24:58.888 Debug Plugin: [EmbyIcons] Populating library path cache using Trie  is in the logs that I was seeing?

It is part of the plugin trying to either populate or read from it's cache.

Just in case you have missed it, the plugin is available in the Emby catalog now and with that automatic updates.

[JsinFate 24]

That is how I originally installed it, but when I tried to reboot, it timed out and said the page could not be reached. 

I then downloaded the DLL from your Github, but placed it in the wrong folder. I assume that made  it worse.

Strange, still having problems?

If so then please enable debugging in Emby log AND the plugin, shut down Emby and start it again and then send me the log.
I will hopefully be able to to see what is happening then, because from my testing it works as it should with the beta.

Also, after you have done that, if you want, you can try and delete the plugin configuration (Remember to take backup) named EmbyIcons.xml located in "plugins/configurations"
It might have gotten corrupted somehow or some library settings have changed.

[JsinFate 24]

I just installed it and it rebooted fine. Now I just need to learn how to use it effectively. Haha

[JsinFate 24]

I spoke too soon. After I rebooted and set some options I saw that there was an update? Emby said to reboot server to update EmbyIcons. I restarted it and it timed out again. 

Attaching my server log.

In the meantime try without CoverArt installed.
I will see if i might have caused a conflict between the two.

@JsinFateA small change has been made to a couple of lines of code that *MIGHT* cause a small conflict with CoverArt.
The chance is small that it is what causing the error and i do hate casting shade on others but, i think CoverArt might be at fault here.

The new version (v5.53.3.0) is in the catalog as a beta.

[JsinFate 24]

Is there an easy way to grab the DLL since I can't get to the catalog because it times out?

You can just remove CoverArt and EmbyIcon temporary.
But, yes here.

 

EmbyIcons.dll

[JsinFate 24]

I deleted both EmbyIcons and CoverArt then closed Emby and re-open it, installed the new DLL and restarted but still can't connect.

Did you also try just without CoverArt?

@ebrSorry for bothering you but, i think this might be a problem with CoverArt.

[JsinFate 24]

Yes. I had deleted the CoverArt DLL and added the EmbyIcons DLL.

Please upload a log where you try without CoverArt.

[JsinFate 24]

I renamed EmbyIcons to .OLD and re-opened Emby and I can now connect.

Here you go.

Hmm EmbyIcons isn't mentioned at all in that log.

Are you sure you tried running EmbyIcons when you made that log file?

What change did you make?

The cache in EmbyIcons were cleared to many times.
private Trie<string>? _libraryPathTrie;

Changed to:

private volatile Trie<string>? _libraryPathTrie;

---

Also changed:

if (e.Item is Folder && e.Parent == _libraryManager.RootFolder)

To:

var rootFolder = _libraryManager.RootFolder;
if (e.Item is Folder && rootFolder != null && e.Parent != null && e.Parent.Id == rootFolder.Id)

I was thinking more about this.
EmbyIcons might interfere with CoverArt on hes system, i can't replicate it on any of my systems though.

[JsinFate 24]

I deleted the DLL, closed Emby and re-opened it and was able to log in. I installed EmbyIcons, restarted Emby, and noticed the Dashboard said to restart Emby again. Instead I upgraded to the latest BETA of EmbyIcons and restarted and after a few minutes, it went back to "can't connect".

EDIT: I deleted the DLL and re-opened Emby, this time I installed only the Beta version, no upgrade and restarted. Still can't connect.
