Question about my Shield hard drive

[Jbenderjr 1]

Was watching a video on Emby when our power flickered and my Nvidia Shield restarted. Now the Emby Server won’t open. If I open it from the settings apps area it looks like it partially opens because a force close button appears but the Emby Client can’t find the server.

Hi, is any server log file generated?

 

@@softworkz can you provide the file system path for emby server logs? I will add it to our "how to report a problem" posting. 

 

Thanks.

On non-rooted devices I'm not even sure whether it is possible to access the files of the app from an external context. I think - no.

@@softworkz Can you please just get him the path so that he can try? Thanks.

Never mind my 4tb hard drive was the problem. Thanks anyway

[Luke 42077]

Thanks for the feedback.

Just for completeness - the typical path is: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.emby.embyserver/files/logs

Thanks !

I double checked: 

 

In case you cannot access it via /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.emby.embyserver/files/logs

you could also try: /storage/self/primary/Android/data/com.emby.embyserver/files/logs

 

The first one is the canonical path, the second one is a mounted path where you can usually browse all folders in the hierarchy.

Not True...X-plore app has WiFi connect which accesses very well. (You gotta buy them a Beer.)

For future reference, on the shield pro if smb is enabled, not sure how this would translate to external drives, but:
