Troubleshooting

FFmpeg is unavailable

  • Windows: restart Orynivo and allow the automatic download.
  • Linux: install ffmpeg through the distribution package manager.
  • macOS: install with Homebrew/MacPorts or let Orynivo download matching binaries into its user cache.

Finder-launched macOS applications do not inherit the same PATH as Terminal. Orynivo therefore also checks conventional package-manager paths.

No audio device or playback failure

  • Confirm that the selected output profile still points to an available device.
  • On Linux direct ALSA, close PipeWire or any other process holding the device.
  • Try OpenAL for system-routed Linux output.
  • ASIO capability queries may fail while another application owns the driver.

Remote server is unreachable

  • Verify the base URL, port, and API key.
  • Open /api/health in a browser.
  • Confirm firewall and local-network routing.
  • Check the server service and its data-directory permissions.

Library changes are missing

Wait for watcher activity to finish, use the header refresh action, or start a manual scan. Removing a configured root intentionally removes tracks outside the remaining roots.

Logs

Orynivo stores crash, seek, and controlled web-browsing diagnostics beneath its platform-specific application-data logs directory. Reports are sanitized and must not contain credentials or authenticated URLs.

When reporting a reproducible defect, open an issue.
