Emby-server Service Dead

[BobbyCR 13]

Hello All, 

I've been noticing lately that my emby server installed on raspbian has started to get stuck from time to time, I'm not 100% sure but I think the cause is the Simkl plugin which now I have uninstalled, i was testing it to see if it was better than trak.tv:

I suspect Skimkl since it was the last one to perform an action and also because this started not long ago and the time may coincide with the time of the plugin installation.

Hi, yes you'll need to remove the .dll file for that plugin if it's causing the server to crash on startup.
