Firstly, thanks again for fixing the 10.25" Android screen ratio, I have just come back from a longish drive and looks great!
My question is how does the sync actually work? Emby to be precise in my instance. I have noticed a ton of albums have zero tracks and some albums as little as one or two. Does Symfonium actively sync or is it a manual operation?
Hi! Very hard to type on my car screen but I have sent you some logs as all my albums are missing some/all tracks. I tried resync and nothing happens when I press the button.
Well, all albums I have looked at have zero or 1 track in them but for something specific the album 38 special by 38 special is empty but on emby it is not
Ok so from the logs the last successful sync synced 25 999 songs but your library is 209 350 and the sync seems quite slow don’t know the kind of connection on your car or on your Emby server.
At the speed from those logs a full sync is like 30 minutes, will be hard to have fast enough connection to sync all that without powering off your car before.
TL;DR your collection is huge and it never finished I do not see any other error / filters in the logs
so the sync would have to complete fully in one go before it would be able to update? The wifi is 4G/5G or local connection to my network.
1, Once fully synced would the subsequent additional music files be quick?
2, it is not possible to continue syncing once in the car?
3, is there a way of seeing sync progress?
Thanks so much for looking and sorry for the questions!
Not for now the Emby ABI is not differential sync friendly
Yes sync keeps going as long as the app is not killed. From the logs it was killed during the sync. I suppose that stopping the car shutdown directly the Android device.
On the filter menu there’s an animation to show that sync is running (See previous post with links)
1, is that something that can be made friendly your end or Emby end?
2, understand, yes that is when the car switches off
3, when I click update on Emby in “Manage Media Properties” nothing happens? there is no animation? spinning wheel or anything? It is the same on my phone, but if I go into Emby and then press update I get the spinning wheel.
I would prefer not to but would consider storing my music in two locations for better syncing, what is best to work with for Symfonium as I am not moving players.
The only one that properly have everything is Kodi including very fast sync but no transcoding and not really secured for external access.
Usually very large collections are split into multiple libraries and some are excluded from the sync. 210K songs frequently updated is not a very common case
