I'm running LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-nightly-20240303-d72cc46 on an RPi5, Embruary skin, and EmbyCon to connect to my Emby server running in a docker on UNRAID. (Just upgraded from LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-nightly-20240215-540999d, happened on both versions. Haven't tested on anything older.)
I've added my "Sports" network share where I have mostly race videos, organized like this:
Side Note:
Each directory can have anywhere from 3 to 10 files covering one race weekend. I have these videos in just a file structure, because I've got recordings of practice, qualifying & the race for various race series and it doesn't fit neatly into Emby's format - it wants to list everything in one huge "episode list" and I don't like them that way - I prefer to organize the files into race weekends so I can watch an entire F1 race weekend, then maybe jump to a Supercars weekend, then to something else. (If anyone knows of a good way to integrate this as a "TV Show" in Emby, I'd be more than happy to rearrange, but this is the best I've come up with.)
The Problem:
Once I start playing a video from this directory structure, I've got no remote control over it other than "Stop". I can't hit pause, the jump forward/back don't work. Hitting stop does not set a bookmark, so I have to restart from the beginning (which can be annoying, some of the files are a full day's worth of coverage - 8-10 hours long). Fast forward & rewind do not work.
If I play a show or movie from a media library, everything works fine.
I've done it this way for more than a decade and I've never had issues before.
Anyone have any idea where I should start looking to figure out what's going on?
Unfortunately, I can no longer log into the Kodi forums to ask (my old account doesn't seem to work, nor does password recovery), and it won't let me create a new account, insisting that my @gmail.com email address is invalid... :shrug:
