I have the same problem.

The error occurs when process runs the 'ImageExtraction'.

My Emby version is 4.7.5 and Unraid version is 4.10.3.

i have updated the image to now use emby supplied ffmpeg, can you pull down the latest image and let me know if it improves things.

After the update, the problem still exists.

Still the same issue for me (using 4.7.5.0-1-02)

 

I turned on debug logging in Emby in hopes it might make it easier for troubleshooting and ran screen grabber on the same file twice.

 

4.7.5.0-1-02: https://pastebin.com/W5HV2eM5

4.6.7.0-4-02: https://pastebin.com/RfBkQqyh

 

I left the full log just in case there's anything related to ffmpeg versions or dependencies. The screen grabber itself is at the bottom.

 

Thanks for looking into this, binhex ❤️

I think this might be a question for emby support, the docker image is using emby version of ffmpeg as far as I can tell so there isn't a lot I can change on my end, maybe it's a known bug in 4.7.x

I've had this issue now for a while, but only on certain video files, not all. take a look at this thread here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/110537-image-extraction-error/&do=findComment&comment=1169206

 

I was able to get things working again by going to binhex/arch-emby:4.6.7.0-3-01.

 

I also just noticed from post above that binhex/arch-emby:4.6.7.0-4-02 works, so i tried that and can confirm this works for me as well.

Updating to 4.7.6.0 fixed my image extract issue. At the time i tried, the binhex image hadn't updated to 4.7.6.0 yet, so i just switched to the official docker image. I simply had to point it to the previous appdata location and it fired right up.

its flagged out of date upstream, once its updated the image will be auto built:- https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/emby-server/

hello,

Like mentioned elsewhere in thread, I'm getting issues with thumbnail extraction when new content is added.

 

I am on the latest version 4.7.6.0.

 

Some help will be appreciated. Thanks

Hello, just wanted to confirm after the last update the screen grabber works properly. Thank you for your support

[captain_video]

I just installed Emby on my unRAID server after Plex got borked a while back.  I didn't have the patience to troubleshoot Plex to get it working again so I thought I'd give Emby a try.  I was just using the free version of Plex so I haven't lost anything in that regard.  I got the Emby binhex docker installed and configured along with my HDHR tuners.  I can get live TV fine and it plays videos and movies from the libraries I set up.  I unlocked the app for Premiere but I can't seem to get the default recording folder configured correctly.  I assume the recording folder has to be placed on the unRAID server but I'm unclear as to the proper path designation.  I have lots of shares setup on my server with one for TV shows so I'd like to point it to that share if possible.

 

On another note, the guide just seems to list channels in a random sequence.  Is there a way to show the listing in numerical order?  I missed the part about channel mapping during setup so I may have to do that to get the correct channel designations for my OTA locals.  The actual and virtual channel numbers for several stations in my area have changed so they aren't matching up with the channel numbers in the guide.  I'm just not sure how to go about mapping the channels after the fact.

 

Also, when I select the Channels tab at the top it just lists the channels by name and doesn't show the corresponding channel numbers.  Is there a way to get them to show up?

 

Update:  Right after I posted this I went back and checked the guide and now everything seems to be in numerical sequence so I have no idea what is going on there.

 

I decided to leave the recording path blank as it says if you do that it will place the recordings in the Program Data folder on the server.  I have no idea where that is in unRAID, but right now it's recording a show and I have no idea where it's being placed on the server.

 

I forgot to mention that I'm using nVidia Shields with Emby for live TV and playback of movies and TV shows.

 

Further update:  I did some digging and discovered that the show being recorded is being stored on my cache drive in unRAID.  I would like for any recordings to be placed on the server instead but I'm not sure of the proper path name.  It doesn't seem to like it when I use the path \\tower\TV Shows\Emby Recordings.  Should I be using the server IP address instead of "tower" in the path?  Do I need to include the port number as well?  I haven't had to dabble in any of this for quite some time so I'm a bit rusty on the proper syntax.

 

Still further update:  I was finally able to get it set up with a proper path to record shows.  I had to use one of the libraries that I had set up for my TV shows.  The only issue I still have is that I need to map the local channels that had changed their virtual channels when a few of our local channels switched broadcast frequencies.  The guide is showing the actual channels instead of the virtual ones (i.e channel 13 changed to channel 12 but all of our channel guides still show it as channel 13 whereas Emby is showing it as channel 12).

i can't get my igpu to be detected and work with the docker, i've added /dev/dri as a device and it just doesn't work, any ideas? i'm using a 13700k and it works via plex just fine.

Have you installed plugin 'Intel-GVT-g' as that maybe required for the igpu to be detected.

i ended up needing to use the emby-beta docker which ended up working with the igpu, hopefully this can get incorporated into the binhex docker and not being on beta.

i dont know where you are installing the emby beta from but its possible it includes the igpu drivers, going back to my question, do you have the 'Intel-GVT-g' plugin installed?, if not then install it and try my docker image again.

from the community apps, it's an official emby beta docker. no i don't have the plugin installed but i'd rather not have to have a plugin to make it work. does all igpu of any generation have to virtualize the igpu to work with your docker? linuxserver docker has the /dev/dri setup by default but doesn't work with my 13th gen igpu either. makes me think it's just the 13th gen that's not supported and the containers need to update whatever to have the 13th gen to work. if i can provide anything to help to get the igpu natively supported by your docker i'd be willing to but i'll stick with the beta for now until then as i don't want to virtualize my igpu with the plugin to have it work.

I just saw this over at the AVS forum:

 

https://www.avsforum.com/threads/windows-media-center-returns.3282772/#post-62790446

 

The Emby developer has come up with a new server version that emulates the old WMC UI, but with a lot of added features.  It's still in beta and was only just released yesterday.  I'm curious is anyone is considering developing a docker for this.

 

Nevermind.  Just found out that this can be updated by downloading the beta APK for my nVidia Shields.  This does not affect the Emby server docker.

Should I expect HDR tonemapping to work? I have HWA setup, and I am a premier member. But this is all I see under the tonemapping section.

Good morning,

I'm having problems with Emby since yesterday. I'm believing it's a corruption issue. I downloaded some torrent files, and inadvertently filled my cache drive to 100%. After running the mover to create free space again, I can no longer access Emby. Here's the contents of my Emby log:

Probably a dumb question, but have you tried rebooting the server to restart everything?  Have you checked the docker status to make sure it's running?

Yes, I should have said that. I have tried rebooting the server. I also removed the container and reinstalled.

[NitroNine]

Any reason DLNA, nor the Emby Sonos plugin don't work with your docker?

Is this still being updated?  I'm having an issue with Emby and Roku not playing certain files with captions.  If I turn the captions off and then play it plays fine.  But if I start with captions it get to 33% and never loads.  This used to work fine. Files that used to play fine with captions don't now! 😡. From some other threads on the emby forum it's something with ffmpeg.  I'd really like to be able to see my captions again! My version is Version 4.7.14.0  and it looks like there is a "Emby Server 4.8.1.0 is Available"  I'm wondering if the latest version will fix my issue...
