recording path and recordings only 2 minutes long

[AFCChris 0]

Hi there

 

First time post. Running Emby on Synology drive and using Emby Premiere. I have 2 issues which i hope can be easily fixed. Firstly i can't set my recording folder as all the paths i try aren't being found. Any tips on the network path for Synology?

 

I have recordings going to the default folder so it's not a big issue, but the bigger issue is that my recordings are always 2 minutes long. I can't see any setting which would correct this. There was another thread about this but it wasn't really having much info on how it could be fixed

 

Appreciate if anyone could help

 

Cheers!

Hi there, can you please attach the emby server logs from both of these situations? you can learn how to do that here:

hi there...can you take a look at the logs i sent?

[Luke 42077]

Hi, try recording with using the conversion feature. It looks like on your system the conversion is just not fast enough. thanks.

already have that setting i think....but I will check again. Any other thoughts?

[Luke 42077]

I'm sorry, I meant without using the recording feature. In this example you have it turned on, so I would try turning it off.

this didn't make a difference. Not sure what to do now...

[Luke 42077]

Can you please provide a new server log with that setting turned off? thanks.

Hi there

 

Sorry for no response but wasnt able to test recordings as i was away. Also i had some success but the last one i tried didn't work again so i attach the server log. Search for BATE as it's in the name of the recording (football match Bate Borisov and Arsenal). Any sort of general pointers about why it's not working and best practice? Maybe its due to someone switching to their user session on the mac? Emby runs on a Synology drive so it should be ok really...

I don't see an obvious problem here, but then again the rtf file is difficult to search. plain text .txt would be easier, but I didn't see any obvious errors. Is it possible someone shutdown the server in the middle of the recording?

i will try a few more and see what happens. No one is shutting down the server but i am new to emby and maybe there is some stuff going on which i don't know about and that i have to tweak. let me do more recordings and i'll send the server log in plain text next time
