SamES 890 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 So just confirming, Deep.Water.2022.1080p.mkv eac3 audio works fine if you DirectPlay, but not if you drop the bitrate to force transcoding? If that's true, what doesn't make sense is that the audio track is just copied to the container, there is no conversion of the audio occurring.

AndyXH 70 Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 Yup that is correct! Works fine on direct play is this not the only videos having the issue seems like all videos on transcode lose the audio I’m just testing it with deep water. And on version 4.6.0.7 it woks with no issues direct play and transcode. Should the audio be transcoded too and no direct play ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamES 890 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 No, audio will only be converted if it’s not supported by the tv, but we know it is as it direct plays. So transcoding works for this file with 4.6.0.7 (was that portable version?) Did you post on ffmpeg log from 4.6.0.7 when it worked correctly with transcode?

I found the log for this in the earlier post. The difference is that that it was converting the audio track to ac3 I suspect that would also work, but not sure why eac3 is not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is that that it was converting the audio track to ac3 I suspect that would also work, but not sure why eac3 is not working Don't know the variable but the 4.6.7.0 log converted to 720 4/5Mbps do lower limitations applied to audio. So 640 audio has to be converted. &VideoBitrate=3616000&AudioBitrate=384000 and &VideoBitrate=4616001&AudioBitrate=384000 06:42:59.380 Stream mapping: 06:42:59.380 Stream #0:0 (h264) -> scale (graph 0) 06:42:59.380 scale (graph 0) -> Stream #0:0 (libx264) 06:42:59.380 Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (eac3 (native) -> ac3 (native)) vs this 6Mbps setting in 4.7.0.40. &VideoBitrate=5360001&AudioBitrate=640000 14:04:25.375 Stream mapping: 14:04:25.375 Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (h264 (native) -> h264 (libx264)) 14:04:25.375 Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (copy) Not necessary a valid comparison, but still a overall issue with eac3 copy.

SamES 890 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Yes, the maximum allowed bitrate for eac3 was increased, which is why it's no longer converting it to ac3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyXH 70 Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 @SamES Yes I did post the longs from 4.6 and I also sent the ti @Luke via PM. Do you have any thoughts on how to fix this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any thoughts on how to fix this ? No, not specifically. My only question is why don't you want to let it DirectPlay? This appears to be a problem with eac3 streamed via HLS (which is what happens when it transcodes) and we know that this delivery can cause other issues as well. For example, TrueHD or DTS files with 4K HEVC require the audio to be converted and they also have issues with this delivery method. There is something that we might be able to try in the next USB release, but I'm not hopeful that it would make much difference In general, and if possible you should always let it DirectPlay, which often means selecting only supported audio and subtitle tracks (ie: not TrueHD, DTS or PGS subs) which helps to avoid all of these problems. Why do you want/need to drop the bitrate on this file, or is that just to test this issue? My solution would be to leave the bitrate at auto and let it DirectPlay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyXH 70 Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Yes I do ru it on direct play but the issue is when I’m remote and the bandwidth is set to Auto based on the internet is transcodes it and I lose the Audio so then I have to manually set the bandwidth from auto to something high25 mbps so it dose direct play but not all outside networks can support that speed so I some cases it has to transcode on the low bandwidth networks. Dose that make sense. When I’m at home and I play the movie and tv shows it’s on Auto but since I’m internal it dose direct play and I don’t have an issue.

I can't reproduce it, which is what makes it hard to try and resolve. There are a few things I'm thinking of here that might change in future client releases. Let's see whether they help it. At the moment, you're the only one experiencing this issue. Can you try the latest portable version (4.7.0.60) to confirm it's not an issue with your server?

AndyXH 70 Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 Thank you for the recommendation.Yup it’s working on the portable version. Do you have any ideas what it can be? Why it’s not working on the install Version? The portable is running on the same server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamES 890 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 That's good news. Can you please attach the ffmpeg log for this new test, and then repeat the same file on your current install and attach that ffmpeg log? Then we can compare the differences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyXH 70 Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Portable-Server-ffmpeg-transcode.txtInstalled-Server-ffmpeg-transcode.txt Also i did notice on the Installed server is doing direct play on the audio while transcoding the video and on the portable its transcoding the audio while transcoding the video. Strange. I hope I don't have to reinstall and start from scratch. Edited May 18, 2022 by andreaxheli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
