openmediavault-emby plugin (formerly mediabrowser)

  • New Version available 3.0.5781.5


    Upgrade via the force upgrade button in the plugin.
    You may have to use the restart button once, in Emby UI or the plugin, if they new version is not showing in the Emby UI.

  • Hello all,
    the "force update" is no longer working
    the emby team changed the github path (file name)
    from -> https://github.com/MediaBrowse…eases/blob/master/Server/MediaBrowser.Mono.zip
    to -> https://github.com/MediaBrowse…eases/blob/master/Server/Emby.Mono.zip


    They also provide an installation via aptitude (is this "new"?) maybe it simplifys the maintenance/script updates for the dev.
    Blog Update -> https://emby.media/new-emby-server-releases/


    Thank you

  • @Brindosch Here is how the latest release will have to be downloaded. The Emby developers are getting rid of the MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/Server links on Github...


    Code
    curl -s -L https://github.com//MediaBrowser/Emby/releases/latest | grep 'Emby.Mono.zip' | head -n 1 | sed -r 's/.{21}//' | sed -r 's/.{17}$//' | wget --base=http://github.com/ -i - -O ${FILE}
  • I have tried to install emby on openmediavault two systems both fresh installs.


    I get an error: gnuTLS: A TLS fatal alert has been received. Unable to establish SSL connection.



    Any idea how to resolve this?

  • I tried this but now the Force update - button returns only /bin/sh: 0: Can't open #.
    The mkconf-file has same file permissions as the other ones.


    Defined constants in the emby-script are:


    Any ideas? Or could I safely remove and reinstall the emby plugin without losing configs (e.g. library information, settings, users, ...)?


    Edit: citation

  • The method has been changed so you can no longer do this. I'll get you what it is supposed to be now for the LINK variable.


    Hold on....


    Code
    LINK="https://github.com//MediaBrowser/Emby/releases/latest"


    Change it back to this and force update.
    They are getting rid of the old static links in the Emby.Releases on their github February 1st.
    That is why I changed the wget method. This new method starts with plugin version 2.6

  • When you are using Fire TV, Chromecast or say an ARM/Kodi device with your TV you should not be transcoding. You can check to see if you are trascoding by checking this folder:


    /media/uuid/emby/logs (uuid where your emby folder resides)


    If you find files that have transcoding*****.txt you might be transcoding. I noticed last night my Fire TV, hooked to my TV, was transcoding.
    Do this to test:
    service emby stop


    Then go into that logs folder above and delete all the .txt files:
    cd /media/uuid/emby/logs (using your uuid on the filesystem where your emby folder resides)
    rm *.txt


    Then go into the client. When you first go into the latest Fire TV app there is a vertical menu on the left. At the bottom of that menu there is "Settings". Click on "Settings". Then it will pull a Settings box. Click on that. Then scroll down to "Max Streaming Bitrate". Set this to 40 MPS. If you are wired this should be no problem. If you are wireless you might want to lower this setting. ** (adjusting Max Streaming Bitrate on other devices may vary or you may not encounter this problem. If you do adjust this setting may help but I am not sure where it is on the other clients so you will have to check.)


    Then start emby:
    service emby start


    Play a movie. Then go back and check the logs. There should not be any transcoding text files now. If there was one created with the current time you need to find out why it is not direct streaming. It could be an issue with the file type.


    PS- Your web clients, like when you connect via http, https or in the plugin iframe, will usually be trascoding. So when you are using these clients expect there to be a transcoding txt file created. You will usually find this with remote usage as well.

  • I couldn't solve the update problem I had, therefor I went for an plugin reinstall.
    However this didn't work out as expected, the emby plugin didn't show up anymore.


    I ended up reinstalling the whole omvextra-plugin, enabling all the repos, adding Mono to custom repos (by hand, there was no preset option) including the key and apt-get update.
    The emby-plugin still doesn't show up, while there are lots of plugins from omvextra and omvextra-testing.


    Any idea how I get installed again?



    # Custom repos# Monodeb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main


    Installed packages (notice that omvextras is only version 2.12.3!)
