Emby Music Sources not Listed in Kodi


Recommended Posts

Posted

I apologize if I'm not wording this correctly, I've only been using this setup for about a week.

 

I created a separate user for my kids on their tv.  I originally only included a TV shows and Movies section.  They wanted some music, so I added music to the library and it shows up on the server.  However, I cannot seem to get Kodi to refresh on their tv.  It still asks me to add sources, which I imagine is the problem.  I thought Emby would automatically do this.

 

I guess in summary, how do I get Kodi/Emby to link to the Music section for my kids profile?  And yes, I allowed access to Music under Settings>Users>Kids.

 

Thanks!

Try doing a repair sync for music only. Launch Emby for Kodi, near the bottom you'll see repair local database (force update all content) - select music. If that doesn't work, try doing a manual sync (right above the repair local database option)

Thanks for the reply.  When I go to repair local database, I'm presented with the options of Movies, TV Shows, and Music Videos.  Which is strange as I have no music videos.  I selected this option anyway but to no avail.  I also went back into the Emby Library settings to ensure I had not accidentally selected Music Videos instead of simply Music.  I have also done the manual sync several times hoping this would jog something.  But nothing yet.

I'm also not able to sync my music anymore with the addon. I have the latest version on the docker with the freenas corral, path substitution in place for everything. Movies, Tv Shows are perfect. Music is not. is I do a force refresh it sees all the artists and put them inside the emby.db file. But not album for those artists or music is being populated in the musicdb in kodi. Inside kodi nothing appears. Is just asking me to add a source. I tried to do a new install of kodi and the same is happening. It used to work before.

 

Thanks,

I discovered where the problem is and maybe there is something that is not working as it should. I locked my music collection when importing to freenas Corral to avoid any undesired updates. After finishing everything I reverted the Artists to an unlock position and tried to scan in KODI. Nothing was appearing. I tried also to apply the locked fix setting. Nothing was helping. Then I saw that my albuns still locked. Only The artists where not. If I unlock an Album Automatically it appears on KODI. So I think the locked library fix in the KODI addon is not working 100%.

 

Thanks,

 

Marcelo.
