Live TV not working - m3u, Error starting ffmpeg

[ur5fyg 0]

Hello. I still stood EMBY PREMIUM 4.1.0.26 - yesterday I updated the server to the version 4.6.7.0.

Before that, my playlist .M3U8 worked perfectly perfectly. After the update, the message also pops up that there are no compatible streams.

I tried to put the IPTV plugin - it does not reproduce and displays the same message.

What example is you to show?
For information, My Emby Server works on TrueNAS

@ur5fyg

The information requested in how to report a media playback issue. thanks !

Only file embyserver.txt is created in my LOGS folder.  Files ffmpeg not created.

File *.m3u took from another topic, he behaves just like my

embyserver.txt ToonamiAftermath.m3u

[Luke 40145]

Ok, this should be resolved for the next release. Workaround for now would be to make sure it ends with .m3u8 instead of just .m3u. Thanks.

Unfortunately there is no workaround. Since both type sheets do not work .m3u and .m3u8

[Luke 40145]

Hi, can we please look at an m3u8 example? Thanks.

Can you please attach the emby server log? Thanks.

I rolled back to the old version 4.1.0.26, as problems started not only with IPTV viewing, but also with viewing video files. If this file is suitable for you from version 4.1.0.26, I will give it.

I was updated to version 7.4.2.0 (Truenas) and I see that the question with the reproduction of the playlist M3U8 or just M3U has not yet been resolved. This is very sad. I attach the playlist. Fill this playlist to the server, and tell me how to make the server play it?

Once again I want to notice, on the old version (4.1) of the server, this playlist works well

Thanks.

You don't by any chance have log files from the old working version that I could compare with, do you?

[ur5fyg 0]

Specially rolled up to version 4.5.4.0 (truenas) here, too, everything works. I attach logs.

How did you install Emby Server? You're using an install package that wasn't put together by us, so here's two things you can try:

• Switch to an install package that is built by us by following the install steps on our website https://emby.media/download
• In the m3u setup, try customizing the user agent to:

VLC/3.0.0-git LibVLC/3.0.0-git

This will make it match the older version of the server. That's basically the only difference in the ffmpeg command line.

I can’t install the package manually since I use Truenas (freeenas), I use the plugin offered in the system.

I do not quite understand where I can try to configure user agent, can be possible in more detail?

Thank you.

[Luke 40145]

Yes you can manually install by following this: https://emby.media/truenas-server.html

The user agent can be configured by clicking on the m3u tuner in emby live tv setup.

I don't understand what I should do here, please help me.

[Luke 40145]

Yea try setting that to: 

VLC/3.0.0-git LibVLC/3.0.0-git

Unfortunately, this did not help. I installed the server over your recommendation (https://emby.media/download), it solved the problem, and Live TV works normally. But, I had a question, version 4.7.1.0_1 was established, This is fine? And how to update my emby server in the future?

Thank you.

Hi, what do you mean by established? What version number do you have now?

[ur5fyg 0]

Hi, I have Truenas 12. Version 4.7.1.0 was established but it is written in the Embubi panel that the version 4.7.5.0 is subject and recommends stopping the server and update.

Sorry, can you try following the procedure here again: https://emby.media/truenas-server.html

You should get 4.7.5 this time. Thanks.
