Emby server version: 4.7.5.0

Android Version: 12

Android App Version: 3.2.56

Video plays smoothly on

  1. VLC media player (windows)
  2. Emby web app (windows & android)

It doesn't play smoothly on the emby android app;  it's playback is jittery and slow and audio is non-existent. I have tried changing the quality from auto (direct playback) to 720, 480 and even 240, but it didn't resolve the issue. Other videos are playing well.

Couldn't find android logs (This 'how to report an android problem' needs to be updated, it also isn't visible in dark mode). But found some logs from desktop of today's date, which I uploaded.

Hi, you have the in-app quality setting set really low, which generally shouldn't be necessary on the local network.  I would try setting it back to Auto and see if that helps. If it doesn't, then please provide a server log example from that. Thanks.

Hey, thanks for the reply. So did some trials and it seems that whenever I plug in my earphones, this strange phenomenon occurs; Without earphones, it plays normally. Whilst other videos aren't affected by earphones whatsoever. It also isn't influenced by the quality of the video.
