kodi.emby music direct streaming

Hi there

 

I'm having a direct stream issue / misunderstanding and need a little help please.

 

I have Kodi on a Nvidia Shiedl ATV  with my music ripped to mp3 320kbps on my Emby server.

 

My kodi.emby addon settings are: -

  -  Playback Mode --> Addon(default)

  -  Enable Music Library  -->  Yes

  -  Direct Stream Music Library  -->  Yes

  - Play from HTTP instead of SMB  -->  Yes

On Emby I have path substitution configured. 

(I completed a compete local database reset with these settings)

 

Playback works fine but Emby always transcodes it down to 128kbps?

Also the Dashboard says direct playing?

 

My understanding is, it would direct stream without needing to transcode???

 

Can anyone help me out?

 

My logs are attached

 

Thanks

Dave

Will that not move me to direct play mode?

 

Was hoping to stay with direct stream then I can move outside my network?

 

Will try but was having smb issues on kodi on nvidia.

Direct streaming music - currently, everything will be playing as mp3. That's what you are seeing. The code hasn't been touched much, I only took what was there before, when marcelveldt implemented it.

Thanks guys.

 

So if I want better than 128kbps mp3 audio, direct play is my only option.

(For the time being at least)

I'll take a look at smb over the weekend.

 

Cheers

Dave
