joncy92 6 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Ello, I've installed Emby into a BSD Jail on FreeNAS, and I'm using Kodi as my players on a few devices. Everything is working perfectly with Kodi using native player (path substituted) and downlading thumbnails etc. Now - when I start playing some content, whether via Kodi or Emby web player, it's marking the "played" status on Emby. Is there any way to configure the "played" flag to only update once the content reaches something like 95% played, similar to how Kodi does it? Thanks.
Happy2Play 9780 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Go to Dashboard-Library, in each library "Show Advanced Settings" and scroll down you will see the Playback options.
Luke 42077 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 If it's doing this right when you start playing, then it's likely because the content doesn't have a runtime in emby server. Are these video files?

Are these video files? They are video files, yes. When I play the file on Kodi and look at the Emby dashboard, the content shows there playing with (time) / --:--:-- Edit: Kodi is displaying the video's actual runtime Go to Dashboard-Library, in each library "Show Advanced Settings" and scroll down you will see the Playback options. Thanks - I checked that out and it's set to what I assume are the defaults: Resume %: 5, Max Resume %: 90, Min duration: 120. Edited December 19, 2019 by joncy92
Luke 42077 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Does the video detail screen in the web app show the runtime?
joncy92 6 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 Does the video detail screen in the web app show the runtime? Not that I can see. Where should I expect to find it?
Luke 42077 Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Right underneath the title of the video. Is it not there?

Luke 42077 Posted December 21, 2019 Posted December 21, 2019 So that means either the initial library scan hasn't completed it, you may have cancelled it, or there was a problem probing the file. Try using the 3-dot menu to refresh the metadata and see if this pulls in a runtime. If it doesn't, please attach the emby server log. Thanks.

Thanks. https://pastebin.com/YhZnnL0K Ran the scan about line 2656. I can see there's ffprobe errors...not that I'd know what to do about it lol. Cheers Edit: Followed this post and it's now showing me the runtimes after refreshing metadata again: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/78925-freenas-jail-shared-object-libx265so179-not-found/?p=803712 Thanks all for the help!

joncy92 6 Posted December 22, 2019 Author Posted December 22, 2019 How did you install Emby Server? Built the jail with the mount points, used pkg to intall dependencies then emby. https://emby.media/freebsd-server.html Either way it's all working fine now.
