TugboatBill 16 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I'm running server Version 3.0.5785.0 on a Win 7 pro x64 box. My videos are kept on a nas, ie \\data\tvshows Clients are Kodi v15.1 on Win 8.1 This was working, but has now stopped. I used to have Emby set up on the clients with the default to stream from the server. I then changed it to use local paths. This worked well, starting videos was faster. I did a few tweaks on the server. I updated Emby from Version 3.0.5784.0 to Version 3.0.5785.0. I disabled some services in the OS. I rolled back my OS changes but I still can't play vidoes. I've tried streaming from the server and local paths and neither work. Bot give the same error in the Kodi log: 15:09:17 T:1232 NOTICE: Creating InputStream15:09:17 T:1232 ERROR: CDVDPlayer::OpenInputStream - error opening [Ash.vs.Evil.Dead.S01E03.Books.From.Beyond.720p.STZ.WEBRip.AAC2.0.x264-NTb.mkv]15:09:17 T:1232 NOTICE: CDVDPlayer::OnExit()15:09:17 T:2648 ERROR: Playlist Player: skipping unplayable item: 0, path [Ash.vs.Evil.Dead.S01E03.Books.From.Beyond.720p.STZ.WEBRip.AAC2.0.x264-NTb.mkv] If I look at the file name in Kodi it shows the file name but no path. Am I doing something wrong? Where do I look/what do I do to fix this? Thanks
Solution Angelblue05 4132 Posted January 8, 2016 Solution Posted January 8, 2016 If you switch from plugin path to direct paths, you need to do a database reset by launching the emby add-on > loca database reset. Let your content sync and it should have proper paths for playback. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
TugboatBill 16 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks, I'll try that. After looking closer I realized the only videos that didn't have a path defined were those that were partially watched. Unwatched & fully watched have the full path and I can start them. It'll take a while for the reset to finish.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Ok, let me know if it's resolved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
TugboatBill 16 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 That fixed it. Strange how only the ones partially watched lost path, but with me changing from streamed to local paths + updating the server + not doing a reset something was bound to happen. 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Yeah, I think I will add "reset required" next to the option lol... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
