Spinner of Death

[Sammy 790]

the embedded lav filters is failing to load. It this folder empty?

C:\Users\i5 Home Theater PC\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Theater\ComObjects

Either way, try shutting down the app and then deleting that folder.

 

I moved this folder to a different location and restarted ET. Seems to be working fine now.

I see the folder re-populated itself and has some new things in it. Thanks!

I do not have the ComObjects folder? Is that normal?

 

Make sure you are using your path and not mine.

 

C:\Users\i5 Home Theater PC<your computer name>\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Theater\ComObjects

Yeah I know that ... my Emby theater folder has no com objects folder.

Well when I deleted the one I had (moved it actually) it got recreated and had more codecs and such in there. My ET works beautifully now.

OK, I did find that folder I was in the Emby Theater folder not Emby-Theater... Deleting that folder helped on the first load. I still have the spinner between episodes of TV Shows. So I launch Emby go to a TV show, and hit Shuffle, First one loads instant. Then the second episode just hangs with the spinner for 2-5 minutes. Before Playing again. 

 

This only happens on the machine that hosts the server as well. I tested on all other computers in the house : 2 Windows machines, 1 mac book pro, 2 ipads, 2 different android devices. The only issue is playback in emby theater on the same machine as the server.. 

 

Thoughts?

The next release of Emby Theater will feature improved performance, hardware acceleration, and better multi-monitor support. If you'd like to try it out ahead of time you can do so here:
