Oh, and also your compatible audio track is going to almost always be better than what Emby transcodes to anyhow. I think Emby transcodes to AC3 with a max 384 kbps and 5.1 or less channels.

Ahh, okay. Mine usually spits out a message something about an invalid codec or something.

I did try disabling audio transcoding, there was no audio thats all.

Many thanks for your reply. At the back of my manual in the supported video containers, it does not list FLAC as a supported codec. The second video has now buffered and paused, why is this happening when its meant to be transcoded into another format?

I should try that. I am thinking I will just get another Pi4, load it with LibreELEC 12.2.1 and use 12.4.22. BTW It is so easy to throw a couple of euros to the people that make this possible. Thanks for the support.

Oh, and if you want to test it out just disable transcoding on the server for your user. Your TV should start spitting out Tizen error messages.

And ya, Samsung TVs are horrendous at streaming transcoded files and buffering. I always keep a compatible audio file within my videos if they have TrueHD or DTS. PCM 2.0 is about the only lossless audio format you can have without transcoding. That and PGS subtitles are bad too.

FLAC as an audio music file is supported, but FLAC within a video container such as MKV isn't supported on any Samsung TV I'm aware of. At the back of your user's manual, you should see a chart like in the link below. https://developer.samsung.com/smarttv/develop/specifications/media-specifications/2021-tv-video-specifications.html That's the matrix Emby uses in the app and can be different depending on the year, but pretty much it's been the same every year for a while.

Thanks for your reply. It does play fine when i select the ac3 audio track, i just played it for 1 continuous hour. I seen an old post on here where the user also had issues too with FLAC stereo transcoding. My tv supports flac stereo too. I found another video with a Flac stereo audio track and it is also being transcoded. Do you know why the FLAC stereo is being transcoded and why it is causing my video to buffer and pause. edit - it direct plays FLAC stereo to my android phone

Is there an approximate date for the update in the LG store?

I thought that in the past when the screensaver started on my Google TV Chromecast it displayed the song name (and artist?) at the bottom of the screen. Did I dream this? I'm asking because I don't see it any more on my Google Streamer.

Any way to trigger this on its own?

It Would be great if we can limit the device per users. The simultaneous streams don't prevent to user to login on another device and it is chewing up the devices limits on my Emby Premiere.

Does it still have the same buffering problem if you preselect the AC3 audio track before clicking Play?

The trailers tab should not appear if there are no trailers. Right now its just wasting space

thanks for your reply, is that the same as the ffmpeg log? attached? ffmpeg-remux-eaa6ca10-c9d5-4e84-936c-de04eba7d577_1.txt

Similar issue some users unable to start stream from Samsung TVs. embyserver_redacted_for_forum.txt

Log mentions transcoding, were there any transcode logs?

Any update on this other than the generic answer?

I am using version 2.2.8 via the app store, this is to avoid being inconvenienced when using the usb instalation. My windows is not using any resources at all, my windows search is disabled, no scans are taking place, cpu temp is cool and so on. I understand that Samsung tvs can have buffering issues too so that's something to keep in mind. I reset my tv by holding down the remote power button and restarting the tv. I also unplug the tv and modem for a few minutes too. My tv and pc are connected via 5e network cables. This concert movie froze multiple times today, i have attached the log file, Leonard Cohen in London, it froze at 19.04. I scanned the video with mkvtoolnix and there were no errors. I played this video for 1 hour via the tv source menu and selecting the Emby server. It played just fine and it proves the app is causing me a problem here. 20-06-26 embyserver.txt

I have an antenna and sometimes it has signal issues and I've never been able to figure out why. For example, NBC will work fine for weeks and then for an evening or two it the signal strength will be low and the channel is unwatchable. I also use IPTV and have these same channels mapped so I can switch if necessary. It would be cool if Emby allowed me to link different channels and if it sensed a signal problem it would automatically switch to the IPTV channel. This way Emby could automatically cycle through linked channels to find the strongest option.

I have music libraries on my server, and some songs are duplicated between them. When I play an album, I have not found any way to get emby to play the album as intended, only playing (for example) a single instance of track 3. It always runs through all of them. Some ideas that might solve my problem, if they exist. Do you know if I can do any of these? - in the android app, start playing an album but have filtered to only one music library - change emby's album-playing logic so it only plays the first instance of any duplicated tracks -change the file scanning logic so it won't include fully duplicated files, even across two library folders. This one's a bit tricky, because of course covers, or multiple versions...it would have to be identical metadata to trigger skipping, I guess. Anyone got a potential solution?

That is not what my experience has been. I came across a case with a movie with a logo but without a thumb as soon as two days ago.
