twofacetoo 0 Posted 58 minutes ago Posted 58 minutes ago Hey all, running into an issue here that's completely crippled Emby on my side. I stored all my Emby content (movies and shows) on a 2tb external hard drive, to avoid them cluttering up my computer. The drive was listed as the F: drive on my computer, so all the files were accessed via F. I recently came into possession of a relative's old laptop (Win10 from 2021) and decided to make it devoted to running Emby 24/7. So I moved the external drive and plugged it into the laptop (now the E drive), then moved the programdata folder over from my appdata folder on the original computer, and moved it to the laptop as well, to the same location. Now I can access Emby on the laptop browser (Firefox, same as my desktop PC) and can see my content listed, all the movies and shows, but they're all giving the same playback error when I try to watch them. I've tested it on various movies and shows, none of them are working, all giving the same error every time, and if memory serves this actually started before I even made the move. I've checked the files are being accessed from the correct place, I updated the library to access both the E and F drives, then just the E drive on the laptop to simplify things, and it still isn't working. I'm running into the playback error message on my desktop PC and my TV, when both used to work perfectly fine, as well as the laptop itself. I use a VPN on my desktop PC, I didn't intend to use it on my laptop, but I downloaded it again anyway just to see if it worked, but even with it enabled, the issue is still here. Let me know what logs are required and I'll attach them in a reply, I just want to get this fixed because as it stands, the entire system is down for me now. TLDR: I've encountered the above error on my TV and two separate computers, it cropped up prior to moving the files, but seems to still be appearing even now
