can't install emby

[antechinus55 0]

I am trying to install emby on an xubuntu 16.04 lts instalation. I followed the instructions for aadding thee ppa but it is 'not authorised' and therefore apt install emby-server does not find a suitable package. I downloaded the binary directly but it wont install either, with a cryptic error message abourt errors being encountered while processing.

Can someone offer advice as to what to do next please?

The server is a headless NAS but running a full xubuntu installation and I am accessing it via nomachine. The content is/will be on the same server.

and here is the error I get trying to update after adding the ppa:

OK, I did nothing other than go back through my history at the console and ran apt install to generate the previous error message and it is now installing correctly. Thank for the prompt response, but it now seems to be working.

any idea why it worked on the third try? I copied and pasted the commands from your website instructions, so it was not a typo.

More than likely you missed the instruction that added the ppa key. Or it was not run with root permissions, since the error said not authorized
