hetkoznap 2 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hi Guys! I'm having problem with most of my channels in Live TV. My setup: Emby Server: Synology NAS (4.7.6.0, ARMv8, DSM 7) Emby Player: Kodi with Emby for Kodi Next Gen app, running on an Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 TV Tuner: VBox TV Gateway (not the android version) I don't exactly know when the problem started because on a day-to-day basis I'm using Kodi's Live TV feature with VBox's Kodi app and it works fine. But if I try to watch live TV through the Emby android app, Emby Windows app or a web browser I get the following error message: "No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details." It was working fine before because I used the Emby android app to watch TV but now it doesn't work. Sometimes some channel loads fine but most of the time I get the error message. PS: I don't know if it's a related problem or not but the VBox option from "Add TV source" is gone. I can use the M3U option (using ".../vboxSimpleIptv.m3u8") and the channels and guide informations are loaded fine. PPS: The first time I encountered the error my server version was 4.7.5.0. I updated today to 4.7.6.0 but the error remained. embyserver.txt ffmpeg-transcode-210d802c-b4ff-41ea-8109-783a758754be_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iiiJoe 55 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Is your Vbox tuner OTA? Or are you using an m3u? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iiiJoe 55 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Ok. Can you pls explain how your vbox tuner is connected to your nvidia shield? Are you recasting over your network to the shield? Also curious as to why you’re using Kodi next gen app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you recasting over your network to the shield? Also curious as to why you’re using Kodi next gen app The VBox tuner is similar to a HDHomerun tuner: you connect your coax cable (from your TV provider's box) and an ethernet cable (from your network switch for example) to the VBox then you can use your browser/ios or android app/windows app etc to connect to it and watch live TV. There's even a VBox addon for Kodi so I can connect to it through Kodi and watch live TV and it works fine, no problem there. But if I try to use either Emby's own android app or open up Emby in a browser on my windows pc I get the error so I don't think the problem has anything to do with Kodi. The channel list and guide is updated in Emby so that means it can read the VBox generated m3u and xml files. The only reason I tried to use Emby for live TV is because in Emby I can save channel logos. Using the VBox Kodi appon I have no logos and it's bothering me. I'm using Kodi with the Emby next gen addon because Kodi is faster than Emby's android app and I used Kodi for many years before and I like it better. I can also watch Netflix and HBO Max inside Kodi so my not so tech savvy girlfriend doesn't have to close one app and open another to watch a movie or TV show that is not in our Emby library.

hetkoznap 2 Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 I'm looking at the ffmpeg log and there is an error: 21:47:29.354 [h264 @ 0x16daabf0] decode_slice_header error 21:47:29.354 [h264 @ 0x16daabf0] no frame! 21:47:29.451 [h264 @ 0x16daabf0] non-existing PPS 0 referenced What is a "decode_slice_header error"? Is it a cable TV provider problem or an Emby/ffmpeg problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
