@duffydack: Not sure why you had any problems, you can't mix movies and series but I guess you already know that since plex operates the same way. My emby-server package in [community] should work as is, the only thing is to make sure the emby user has read (and optionally write for local assets rather than in the database, speed ftw \o/) rights on your library. Apart from the odd anime series here and there, emby had no problem indexing my library, I even found its matching better than plex thanks to the anidb scraper, not to mention you can separate animes from live tv shows and assign different scrapers for them, something that plex cannot do with its single tv shows setting. And this was with a lot, and I mean _a_ _lot_ of anime series, almost as many movies and a few live series. Sure this requires some work, but if you already have a working plex setup, you should have a good library architecture, then all you need is a night of indexing :P

@alucryd: I quickly tried emby, hmm. After startup problems, threw a few tv eps and a movie (bttf) in a folder, set it up, it couldn't find anything, then found the tv but the movie found as something totally different. Yeah I'm not sure about it, I have a lot of stuff setup I don't want any hassle. Hope you don't, but hope someone takes it up if you do disown it :(

@duffydack: My pleasure. @all: Been using emby for a while now, and I'm infinitely more satisfied, I can use the latest kodi instead of a prehistoric player and I can replace the crappy ffmpeg Plex ships with (oddly named Plex Transcoder, do they really believe it will fool anyone?) with a real one. I think it's time I disowned this, may someone break it to their heart's content. Amen.

Another flawless upgrade :) Had to use prelink from aur but it built ok (even with a few FAIL messages). All working fine. Thanks

I'm not responsible for the plexpass version, and I assure you it won't run with a hardened kernel. Plus that lib really doesn't need execstack, there's no harm in disabling it, on the contrary. The prelink package isn't broken, it builds perfectly fine here, and you're the only one who's been complaining about it. SELinux is detected by the configure script and should be disabled if you don't have it. FTR, SELinux is not supported by Arch Linux, but Grsec/PaX is, so it seems to me you're the one who should go out of their way, not the other way around.

I'm basing this on the fact that it plex-media-server-plexpass isn't using it (It being more or less an identical package is another issue), the fact that the prelink package is currently broken, as it fails to build (see comments in the package). And the fact that I tried it and haven't encountered any issues yet. In case you need it for a hardened kernel, just mention that in the pkgbuild as a comment. People using a hardened kernel should be able to read the pkgbuild and decide themselves. "normal" arch users who use the stock kernel are fine without that. In fact it makes things more complicated for them.

Really now, and on what ground are you basing this? Did you even try a hardened kernel?

please drop the dependency on prelink and remove "execstack -c usr/lib/plexmediaserver/libgnsdk_dsp.so*" from prepare. The package builds and runs without it
