Hi all, so I've reinstalled emby after updating to FreeNas 11.2 and none of the content in the libraries will stream. I've setup the storage and the plugin all in the new UI and Emby reads all the data on the drives, I can still download movies from emby but it won't stream anything. Just keeps showing me the loading circle.

I must've done something wrong here.

I've attached the transcode log.

All help is appreciated,
Thanks in advance

Cass.

For anyone else wondering. There are a number of threads on this on the emby forums. Supposedly there is a solution here https://emby.media/community/index....ge-plugin-emby-3530-ffmpeg-solution/?p=659618

edit 1: From what I am reading it's a known issue with the official plugin on emby v3.5.3.0 . People seem to have better luck installing a beta version.

edit 2: Can confirm the beta has this issue fixed. I can stream videos just fine. The name of the jail created using the commands below will be different, so I was able to keep the official jail 3.5.3.0 jail with the expectation I'll just update it once the beta becomes the official version.

Code:
cd /tmp
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bott0r/iocage-plugin-emby/beta/emby-server-beta.json
iocage fetch -P dhcp=on vnet=on bpf=yes allow_raw_sockets=1 -n emby-server-beta.json --branch 'beta'
