Luke 37046 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Hi, try installing the windows store mpeg2 extension from microsoft: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/blog/1/entry-366-install-the-windows-store-mpeg2-extension/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsalter 84 Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Thanks for the reply I do have that installed, just tried uninstalling it and installing again but it makes no difference The mpeg2 extension works for the built in Movies & TV app and allows the content to play, but Emby just transcodes it On the xbox i am not sure if this is installable, i think support for mpeg2 is built it (cant find this item in the store) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37046 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Ok, it's the mp2 audio. It's not on our direct play list. We'll look at this for the next update of the app. thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsalter 84 Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 Just noticed the app has been updated The above file now plays perfectly on my desktop through the app The xbox one is still transcoding it though, i did notice it is on a lower version number than the desktop app, so perhaps the change hasnt hit it yet, if this should be playing it also i can provide new logs Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulsalter 84 Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hi Should the xbox one have received the update to stop the transcoding? Just tested today and i am still having the original problem, episode in first post is transcoding For a test i modified the xbox one dlna profile (so i have a copy of the original) and added MP2 as a direct playable format, using the play to feature i get no transcoding, but with theater i do I can get new logs if required, but the problem is the same as in the first post Theater on my PC works fine now and does not transcode, this issue only affects the xbox one Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37046 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 On Xbox we are blocked by an MS defect, once that is resolved we will be able to direct play this again. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
