Emby Server Latest Windows version - Self-Compiled code is not the same as distro

[mattj949 0]

Windows server version 3.2.70: I have made some minor changes to the M3U parser that I have been using for a long time.

 

Every time there is a new update to the server, I just simply go to GitHub and get the new source, then recompile with my changes and replace the "Emby.Server.Implementations.dll" with my recompiled version on my server. 

 

This time it does not work. I can compile it fine. My compiled "Emby.Server.Implementations.dll" is about 2.7mb (as it has been in previous versions), but the downloaded and installed binaries file "Emby.Server.Implementations.dll" is 4.7mb, and if I replace it with my version, the server will not even start. 

 

What has changed that would cause this? Is there now something embedded in that .DLL that it needs? The version numbers match up (3.2.70). I've tried it with the beta too (3.2.70.3) without success. 

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

THANK YOU!!

Yes they are different so that might not work. you would just have to run from source entirely. but why not submit a pull request with your changes?

I just compiled the entire thing myself locally and that fixed it. Thank you.
