SOLVED: Trickplay

[Partition]

Hey,
I'm using Jellyfin 10.9.1 and everything is working fine so far, except that my trickplay task won't start properly.
It finished after 0 seconds with this log:

Code:

[2024-05-16 01:40:11.082 +02:00] [DBG] [40] Emby.Server.Implementations.ScheduledTasks.TaskManager: Executing "Trickplay-Bilder generieren"

But my config/metadata/library/* folders only have the chapters pictures that were created long before and the usual logo, posters, etc. files. So I don't know what it tries to replace.

My system.xml settings:

Code:

  <TrickplayOptions>
    <EnableHwAcceleration>true</EnableHwAcceleration>
    <EnableHwEncoding>true</EnableHwEncoding>
    <ScanBehavior>NonBlocking</ScanBehavior>
    <ProcessPriority>BelowNormal</ProcessPriority>
    <Interval>10000</Interval>
    <WidthResolutions>
      <int>320</int>
    </WidthResolutions>
    <TileWidth>10</TileWidth>
    <TileHeight>10</TileHeight>
    <Qscale>4</Qscale>
    <JpegQuality>90</JpegQuality>
    <ProcessThreads>0</ProcessThreads>
  </TrickplayOptions>

How can I override "replace existing: true" and force the trickplay generation?
Is there any tool or rule of thumb to estimate the general foldersize for the trickplay files? I read that they can grew substantially.

Thanks in advance for your help.

What do you mean it won't start properly? Is it saying that it failed? Or is it finishing a few seconds after starting? "replace existing: false" means that there is already a trickplay. Did you previously use the Jellyscrub plugin and convert the Jellyscrub bifs?

Found the problem. I had to enable trickplay in the library settings - it's scanning now. A better log description as "no library selected" would be great tho.

Yes it is starting as you can see in the logs and finished the task "successfully", but I does that always in under 1 second and the feature isn't working in either the browser, android tv or windows app. I didn't use Jellyscrub before.
