Movies not playing for me.

[tdiguy 99]

I don't know what i did now. I thought i had everything working but it seems i was wrong.

I can watch live tv but i cant seem to play any of my movies. It acts like it will play but nothing shows up. Not really sure what is going wrong.

i have attached the server and ffmpeg log.

server.txt

ffmpeg.txt

As a test i played one of my movies with vlc media player over the network via dlna ( on the emby server ) and it plays via vlc but not via web browser.

Error starting ffmpeg - did you customize the ffmpeg build and forget to apply execute permissions?

I am pretty sure emby should have proper access.

when i check with top i see mono running as smith.

Not sure why but i shut down the emby server and rebooted the pi, once it came back online its working.
