Stellarat 12 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Hi, I have a particular file I am trying to play which is stuttering horribly multiple times. It plays back fine to my laptop Chrome, for which it does transcode the audio, however it doesn't look like transcoding is necessary to the TV and yet it stutters there. Emby For Samsung 1.0.94, Server version 4.7.6.0. It seems to always stutter in the same place when I rewind a bit and replay. It also happens in other episodes from the same series. Any ideas?

FrostByte 5052 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 How many subtitles are in that file? Also, are you staying with an old version of the app because that's the last one in the store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, are you staying with an old version of the app because that's the last one in the store? Not sure how this works but in Emby Player, when I click on Subtitles: Off, a very long list of Subtitles is shown, all of which are SUBRIP - presumably these are all in the file? Unfortunately my TV is a 2016 model so that is the latest version of the player I can get from the App Store. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution FrostByte 5052 Posted August 21, 2022 Solution Share Posted August 21, 2022 As far as the stuttering that is most likely caused by the huge number of internal tracks in your file which seems to be an issue with all Tizen apps. The only solution I know of right now is to remux your file and remove enough tracks to get somewhere below 30 (video+audio+subtitle), or just remove all the unwanted subtitle tracks. Got it. I imagine my 2018 will not be supported in a couple years also. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a tool you would recommend to do that? (I'm on Windows 10 and 11). Thanks Edited August 21, 2022 by Stellarat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5052 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 MKVToolNix is very popular. MKVToolNix download latest version (fosshub.com) Fairly easy. Drag-n-drop your file onto the Window after starting. Then in the Tracks, chapter window unselect all the subs you don't need and click "Start multiplexing" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5052 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Let us know, but I'm almost positive that will end up being the problem. BTW someone is creating a Subkiller plugin just for problems like this to automate things a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW someone is creating a Subkiller plugin just for problems like this to automate things a bit. It worked! And I'll keep an eye out for that Plugin. For anyone finding this thread later, ignore what the MkvToolNix installer says about downloading a 3rd party GUI - it does come with its own - and that's what you will need to use to follow @FrostByte's instructions. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
