hello all
I am running nas4free ver 11.2 and all is working fine. As a media player I use Kodi 17.6. I currently have 4 PC running Kodi and I would like to sync all media on all pcs and I would like to be able start a movie in one room and finish watching it in an other room. for example I would start a movie in the media room and finish watching it in my bedroom.. I installed the brig in a jail in nas4free using onebutton installer I and now i would like a step by step procedure to install emby within n4free and on kodi client.

I created a jail called emby :/mnt/media/thebrig/emby/

from the emby forums the suggested that they have not tried N4F however their code for freebase should work. Hence I tried using the gui and inserted the following command;
$ sudo pkg install mono libass fontconfig freetype2 fribidi gnutls iconv opus samba48 sqlite3 libtheora libva libvorbis webp libx264 libzvbi
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...

and when i enter
pkg add -f https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Re ... _amd64.txz

I get

$ pkg add -f https://github.com/M....0.32_amd64.txz
Fetching emby-server-freebsd_3.6.0.32_amd64.txz: .......... done
Installing emby-server-3.6.0.32_1...

Failed to install the following 1 package(s): https://github.com/M....0.32_amd64.txz

I was under the impression that i had to install this code in the brig. Or since the package mentioned freebase would mean it should not work

Thank you for assistance ya'all

I have my data on a XigmaNAS box, mysql is running in a virtual machine and Kodi and my satellite reveiver (Argus-TV) are connecting to it. It works exactly as you mentioned - start watching a video in one room, stop watching and continue to watch in another room, on a tablet or on a mobile phone.
My solution is working flawlessly for years.

Thank you ms49434 for your prompt reply
I'm by no means a programmer nor do i understand the all the correct syntax, I'm happy fr you and envious at the same time to have this solution. You seem to have a much developed solution than I have. example I use a buffalo linkstation 4 and nova backup. Hence I get terrified when someone talks about VM and and MSQL. I presume that msql in built in the VM and you use the VM to communicate to all your devices.
I can function from simple GUI and this is my limit because I'm an old Fart. LOL
But thanks for your vision

Revise that download packages are the correct for your architecture or CPU

And that your comands are executed inside the jail ( jail exec)

read about jails: https://www.xigmanas.com/wiki/doku.php? ... owto:jails

or

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/jails-build.html



you need to know what number is your jail and jail exec number_of_jail csh to log into the jail. once you are inside the jail you can add packages , etc...
