Hi there, have you checked that your xml guide data is valid xml?

[YairYakov 1]

I think so...

This are the links i am using:

Please attach the complete emby server log. Thanks.

You have a lot of noise in your logs.  Go to  Network menu and then turn off automatic port mapping.

Your first link is a redirect to another site and the guide data is invalid.
So forget the tiny link and try just the other guide.

Let us know how you make out.

Hi there, are you sure this is the right one? I don't see the error that you mentioned in the first post. Can you please try that again, and then attach the emby server log? Thanks !

[YairYakov 1]

It got even worse.. now I can't even play any stream - it says "no compatiable strea.. bla bla bla"

I cleaned the log and attached a fresh one - please kindly review and help

Thank you

Hi.  Are any ffmpeg logs generated?  How did you install the server?

	System.Exception: System.Exception: Error starting ffmpeg

 

[YairYakov 1]

Just a normal installation, what do you mean how ?

ffmpeg-transcode-9b00b6db-acec-4d0f-a363-2b1b24383ca4_1.txt

attached ffmpeg log

[Luke 40079]

Hi, as a test, if you turn off hardware transcoding in server transcoding settings, does that help?

[YairYakov 1]

Same thing

[Carlo 4552]

Can you provide the ffmpeg log files with hardware transcoding turned off?

@YairYakov

Can you please attach the corresponding Emby Server log? Ideally you'd supply it together with the ffmpeg log so that you can be sure they're from the same session. Thanks !

[Carlo 4552]

What's the actual source of your feeds?  You do not need to post that here but are these channels you're paying for as part of a service or from an m3u list you found online?

Can you open the m3u file in VLC and playback these channels?
If so, can you PM me your source m3u file or link you are using so we can take a look and try a couple streams on a test server?

[YairYakov 1]

Hi,

 

The streams are working fine with VLC.

also, I installed emby on a fresh PC and it us working okay.

 

really cant understand what is wrong

 

[Carlo 4552]

Since you're running the beta and a couple versions behind I think the first thing to do is upgrade your version of Emby to the latest beta version.
Then if you have this problem again upload your server log.

@YairYakov please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

[YairYakov 1]

I am getting the same error

attached logs

[Carlo 4552]

I'm seeing message "No such host is known." in your logs when trying to playback a stream.
Would you be able to PM me your m3u and xml file so I could take a look at it and possibly try on a test server?

That would probably be the best method to see what's going on.

Carlo

[Carlo 4552]

I got the m3u file but no xml guide files.  You would need this to setup a guide, but for testing I don't need it.
I tested 3 different channels for a couple of minutes and didn't have an issue using edge and theater.

Can you give me the name of a couple channels you're having trouble playing and I'll check those specific channels.
Also let me know what different clients you've tried.

[YairYakov 1]

xml provided in DM.

Sky sport F1 (61)

Sky sport arena (417)

 

I am using on my android TV a client called IPTV also using VLC

As mentioned before, on another PC emby does work okay with these links - it is only this installation that won't go.. tried complete uninstall and re-install with no luck

[Luke 40079]

Did you find the solution?

[YairYakov 1]

nope
