100% CPU load all the time

[siteripper2 0]

Hello,

 

as it seems my Emby is on 100% CPU load all the time.

 

I attached a log after a server restart with no streaming going on. It is on 100% all the time.

 

I hope you can help me.

Hi there, are you sure? Looks like emby for kodi is playing something.

At least it is not showing anything in the Dashboard

ok, I deleted Kodi and EMbyCOn entries from "Active Devices" and now the load went down. But what exactly is causing it? As I said no streams were active by the time.

I would try starting one of those back up, and then the other and see if you can narrow it down. Let me know what you find. Thanks.

As it seems it has something to do with some EmbyCon clients. Right now it seems that large databases of Favorites (>1000) are causing this but I have to do some more tests on how to replicate this problem.

I still run into this problem. The log shows continuously this error:

What does "this error" mean?

[mastrmind11 722]

the error report he pasted maybe?

[Luke 42077]

I understand, but I want to know what the actual problem is that he's trying to report.
