Noticed i made a small error in the resolution detection making some resolutions not be detected as they should. This version fixes that. EmbyIcons.dll

There is no such thing as hardware acceleration for audio. I guess technically there is with a Sound Card but in general HWA is offloading the video processing to hardware (gpu/igpu).

I have noticed that sometimes ffmpeg is running on the CPU instead of transferring that to quicksync. I see the hardware acceleration icon for the video, but not for the audio. Is this by design? Or am I configuring some settings wrong?

As H264/MVC encoded streams are backwards compatible with H264/AVC, all H264 capable players will play and handle those streams just fine. In short: Inside an H264 streams, bits are organized in "NAL" units. Those units have a type, unknown types are ignored. The ffprobe output of an mvc 3D movie looks like this for the video stream: Stream #0:0(eng): Video: h264 (High), yuv420p(progressive), 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 23.98 fps, 23.98 tbr, 1k tbn Metadata: stereo_mode : block_lr Side data: stereo3d: frame alternate ffmpeg is no able to decode the side data, but can (and will) handle the primary stream just fine. On that node: Currently, emby also seems to transcode h264 to h264 if a 3D movie is presented. This is not required (maybe to safe some bandwidth) and breaks 3D Playback on comaptible players, like a KODI on a 3D/MVC enabled Set-Top Box, as ffmpeg can not transcode the alternate view. So, my suggestion would be to treat an h264 video stream always the same, regardless if 3D or not.

Ok we are looking into it. Thanks.

Any timeline on this release of the FFmpeg changes?

This has been mentioned before. In order to seek the header must have the seeking index at the front of the file. Not stored afterwards. Some encoders put the seek index and chapters after the video and audio streams. This makes it so you must download the entire file before you can seek. The Roku is streaming the file. This means it won't have the entire file until you are pretty close to the end. If you remux with MKVToolNix it will properly fix the file for streaming moving everything required to the front and correct the header. This is exactly what you need to do. Conversely, if this is something you will never do. Use the "Attempt Playback Correction" built into the apps video player. Open the OSD by pressing down and then move to the cog/gear and press OK. Then use playback correction and you will be able to seek. Since this will repackage the stream into HLS with an m3u8.

Happened again. The show is The Proof is Out There. Only recorded 10 minutes. This happened with a few other shows the day before but the server purged the logs before i could catch them. This is the only log from that day. embyserver-63887875200.txt

Playing "Air Force One (1997) - 4K.mkv". in Emby Theater on a Windows 10 PC. The only thing I've done to this rip is run it through mkvtoolnix and remove the foreign language tracks, subs and label commentary tracks etc. I'm not sure there is a way to upload this file its 58 GB. embyserver.txt

Hi. It is direct playing so all seeking is being done internally by the Roku player. There are no errors. Have you tried remuxing one of these?

In den Eigenschaften eines Videos wird "Hinzugefügt am" inklusive der Uhrzeit angezeigt, also muss es eine Anzeigeeinstellung sein, damit die Uhrzeit auch in der Bibliothek angezeigt wird.

Any idea about the roadmap of this feature or not yet ?

Not sure why this suddenly worked now, but it appears it has. Is there any way to see a log of what I've watched in the last few weeks easily? I need to mark some things as watched in Trakt.....

Hi, can you try this again and see how things compare? Thanks.

Hi, what do you mean by "ffmpeg does not care about the substream" ?

Hokey dokey, thanks.

Hi, we are actively working on it and hope to have something soon. Thanks.

Hi, not yet but it's possible for future updates. Thanks.

m4a will work in an audiobook library but not mkv. You'd have to use something else such as mka there.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hello, I've noticed that the volume for my Blu Ray rips is pretty low (DVD rips are fine), I'm having this issue on windows PC's and Fire stick, video and audio direct streaming. I've tried a Volume booster on PC's, this works okay but is annoying if switching to another application, this won't work on a Fire stick. Is there an easy and practical way to boost the volume on mkv files? I've tried handbrake and adjusting gain but I can't seem to find a way to do it without compressing the video file, I would prefer to keep them the way I ripped them, with the settings set to "Placebo" this takes a really long time. I did give FFMPEG a try but I'm not sure I want to use CMD for 100+ files. I looked through this forum for solutions about "volume low" but couldn't find any that were resolved. Thanks in advance!

What app version number are you on now?

hi @fanhua1211have you taken a look at this?

Have you explored your emby user home screen preferences?

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred: How to Report a Problem Thanks!
