Music playback bug? Songs randomly restart halfway through

I tried an "Instant Mix" from my Music library in Emby, using the AppleTV client. Every so often, partway through a song, it woudl pause and restart the song. It did this in several songs over a couple hours of listening. There are a total of 44 log files from that time frame, 40 of which are the transcode logs. I've attached a handful of them below.

Hi.  Does the same thing happen with the same songs on the web app?  Also, are these songs also transcoding when played that way?

I will try to repeat this and find out.

 

I don’t know if all the songs are transcoded. There are more songs transcoded than have the restart problem.

Yes let us know how the web app compares. thanks.

 

I tried the web interface from a client machine on my LAN and it seemed to play normally. I think I played enough songs that I would have heard several restarts.

 

But in the AppleTV, multiple songs restart during a playback.

 

I don't use music much, so it's hard to gather bug-report data (that is, if it worked perfectly on the AppleTV, I'd use it all the time. But these quirks make it unusable and I just go back to the cable music stations).

 

So, if there's some tests I can do, let me know and I'll get to them as soon as I can. :)

Sounds like it is related to them being transcoded.  Can you find the ffmpeg log for one of the songs that actually had the problem?
