Emby Server uses FFmpeg for transcoding and ImageMagick for
|
|
generating thumbnails. The default ports/pkg builds of FFmpeg
|
|
and ImageMagick on FreeBSD have a number of options which
|
|
could be SET/UNSET to improve your Emby Server experience.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to recompile the multimedia/ffmpeg package
|
|
from ports with the following options ENABLED (SET):
|
|
- ASS (required for subtitle rendering)
|
|
- LAME (required for mp3 audio transcoding, disabled by default due to mp3 licensing restrictions)
|
|
- OPUS (required for opus audio codec support)
|
|
- X265 (required for H.265 video codec support
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to recompile the graphics/ImageMagick package
|
|
from ports with the following options DISABLED (UNSET):
|
|
- 16BIT_PIXEL (to increase thumbnail generation performance)
|
|
|
|
If you had mediabrowser installed before the project was
|
|
renamed to emby-server, you may want to rename the user and
|
|
group (note that moving the database is not supported):
|
|
# pw groupmod 989 -n mediabrowser -l emby
|
|
# pw usermod 989 -n mediabrowser -l emby -g emby -c Emby\ Server
|
|
|
|
To automatically start Emby Server at boot time:
|
|
# echo 'emby_server_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
|
|
|
|
To then manually start Emby Server without rebooting:
|
|
# service emby-server start
|
|
|
|
Once started, visit the following webpage to configure:
