Emby Theater for Windows - Process Hangs on Exit

[JulesC 51]

I'm running the latest version of "Emby Theater for Windows" on the latest version of Windows 10 (not the version from the Windows Store).

 

I'm noticing the Emby process is not ending when I exit "Emby Theater for Windows".  As a result, the Emby process hangs.

 

When I try to re-launch the "Emby Theater for Windows" app, it will not load until I go into Windows Task Manager and End the Process.  After I do that, the "Emby Theater for Windows" will launch.

 

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?  Thank you

We'll do some testing, thanks.

Thanks, Luke.

 

Here is an update.  I've downloaded the "Emby Theater for Windows" from the Microsoft Store and installed it on my HTPC.  I've been running it for the last couple of days with no issues so far.  Hoping this addresses the issue I've been experiencing, but wanted to update you and others with my early learning's in hopes that it helps others.

This is being looked into, thanks.

I don't know if this will provide any clues, but I have the ac3encode in my conf, and when I play music then press stop, I usually get the electron processes stuck on. If needed I can probably reproduce this and post the theater logs?

2.8.6 has not improved my issue.

I can no longer reproduce it, perhaps related to something in your mpv conf?

Without this in my conf, it doesn't happen. I did post about this, but I can't find it, now. I think it has to do with the fade out. When I press stop, I can hear the audio break up. Then electron gets stuck.
