Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 I'm trying to get emby working with kodi on a Nexus Player. I have it running fine on 3 windows pc's and 2 android boxes. When i install the emby plugin in kodi it says gathering info for movies and when it reaches 100% kodi just disappears and it is back on the Nexus Player start screen. I am using the latest kodi and the nexus player is updated as well. It does not matter if i use the stable or beta plugin the result is the same. I have reset te nexus and reinstalled several times as well. Does any one have any idea what is going on?
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 Post your Kodi log: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/17599-how-to-report-a-problem/
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 20, 2017 Author Posted May 20, 2017 Ok. Just was wondering if it would even register in the log since as soon as i enable the plugin it starts "gathering info for movies" then at 100% just goes to the nexus start screen. It doesn't crash and on restart of kodi it's like it never ran at all. As soon as I get home i'll post the log though.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 Yes it would show the issue in your log, up to the point it freezes. The process might be too demanding with the default add-on settings.
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 20, 2017 Author Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) Ok. Here you go. Edited May 26, 2017 by Angelblue05
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 Remove your MySQL from your advanced settings and let me know if it works then.
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 20, 2017 Author Posted May 20, 2017 I just added that the other day. I have been having this issue for a lot longer than that. It's not what's causing the problem.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) Remove it anyway. Because Emby for Kodi is not compatible with MySQL. Edited May 21, 2017 by Angelblue05
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) Ok. Here it is. Edited May 26, 2017 by Angelblue05
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Hmm... I was expecting something to change. @ any ideas?
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) I'll give it a try and let you know. Oh and also, the nexus does not crash if the emby plugin is disabled. Ever really. Like for weeks. Edited May 21, 2017 by Noel Grassy
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) Same result. Edited May 26, 2017 by Angelblue05
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) Ok. No idea why it's getting stuck. It starts one thread to download your movies, but it doesn't time out, it just freezes...? You could try the following to keep a move on for now: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/plugin.video.emby/wiki/Create-and-restore-from-backup Edited May 21, 2017 by Angelblue05 1
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 24, 2017 Author Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) I tried the manual install first.It populated the library but emby tries to sync on startup and it does the same thing. Edited May 26, 2017 by Angelblue05 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 24, 2017 Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Do you have a big movie library? What is your number of item requested in the add-on settings? I'd set it very low, like 10-15 even 5. What is your emby server running on? Does it freeze too? If that doesn't work, I'd just go with Embycon. Edited May 24, 2017 by Angelblue05
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Posted May 25, 2017 Around 11,000 movies, 800 tv shows and about 2000 albums. I have had it set to 15 before with the same result. I'll try lower. My server is running on windows pc with no problems. If all else fails I will go with embycon but can I control that through Yatse remote? 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) No Yatse. However, I've seen this: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/47326-yatse-with-emby-support/ Ah, that's a really large library. Try lowering, let me know if it makes a difference. It probably won't, but now I'm curious what your server is doing. Edited May 25, 2017 by Angelblue05
Noel Grassy 42 Posted May 25, 2017 Author Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) I turned it down to 5 with the same result. Edited May 26, 2017 by Angelblue05
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 I really don't know, hmm. Does your server log show any errors around the same time as your kodi log? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Angelblue05 4132 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 But there were requests coming from Kodi like Users/{userid}/Items during that time? Ok well for now, please go ahead and try out embycon. I'm not going to be able to rework that area for a litttle bit, but I'll probably bug you later to test a new build when I get the chance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
