Real time monitoring?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Windows Emby server on Windows 10. Have real time monitoring checked for my TV library. Added a new show and it never got recognized. Waited 5 minutes. Hit the scan library button and it found the episode.

 

Am I missing something? How long do you you need to wait?

 

Server log attached.

See above Luke. I added an episode of Troll Hunters to my server. Waited over 5 minutes. It never got recognized until I hit the Scan Library button in the server dashboard screen. I know that OS X used to (still does?) had issues recognizing new content but I thought with Windows this worked as advertised?

What time did you add it?

oh gosh I can remember now. Let me try another test and get back to you with new logs.

Ok put the following file in the series folder at 1:49:10pm:

 

Trollhunters - S01E07 - To Catch a Changeling - WEBDL-720p.mkv

 

As of right now (1:58pm) its is not showing up in Emby at all. Also, once it does get recognized shouldn't it be listed in at the top of the "Latest TV" on the main home page? The one episode I got to show up by initiating a scan is not on that screen at all.

 

Logs attached.

What OS system are your files on, since they are on a remote share?

They are on a mac mini with a directly attached Drobo. When I play files i get direct streaming so I assume my substitutions are set up correctly.

@@Luke would have to say for sure, but I don't think Realtime monitoring works across mixed environments.  I could be wrong.

Luke does the OS X server support real time updating? That is my ideal setup but last time I was testing Emby it was not working. Also still have massive graphical issues using the OS X version of the server (blank screens and constantly spinning "wait" indicators) so I thought running the server on my HTPC might be a better option.

I have noticed the same thing. I add a movie and a couple hours later it is still not added, then the next day it shows up. I am guessing it is getting picked up when a scheduled library scan takes place. My media a stored on a server running UnRaid, Emby Server running on a windows 7 machine.

yes it does.

yes it does.

Switched back to OS X server with directly connected drobo storage and its not updating. How long should we be waiting for new content to be recognized?

Well I notice i your logs no events are firing so perhaps there is a regression in the mono runtime's fileSystemWatcher for OSX. Although on my test macbook I do remember seeing them recently. I'll test it out.

I added a movie last night at 5:20, as of 9:00 it was not listed yet. Thismorning I see it is their but a library scan ran 5 hours ago, so that could be what picked it up.

 

Movie was ripped from BluRay direct to my UnRaid server, takes about 40 minutes to do the rip, don't know if it could be something with the long time it is taking to create the file.

Tried a movie download just now and it is recognized pretty immediately so thats working. Tried another TV episode and 40 minutes later still nothing.

 

Again, my setup is OS X 10.10.5 with directly connected Drobo drives.

And just to confirm, you do have real time monitoring enabled for that library?
