OneAn9ryN00b 5 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 When watching Live TV through the Android app the stream is all discolored. This only happens through the Android app, and only on streaming live TV. Picture comes in fine using the browser on the same phone. Also comes in fine using other devices around the house including a tablet using the app, and my android tv app...just not my phone. The phone is a Pixel 6 Pro running the latest OS Android 13. I have tried resetting the app to the defaults, clearing cache and rebooting, but getting the same results. Is there anything I could try to get this working? Is anyone else getting this? App version: 3.2.73 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roaku 795 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 It's been reported a few times, but no meaningful response from the Emby team yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerK 9 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I've found that if I force transcoding the colors are corrected.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD315 5 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I'm seeing this too on a regular Pixel 6.same stream via Chrome browser is fine. U installed app and re installed same thing.

Luke 37060 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 That's strange. Can you please try this version of the android app: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u1obwrckg4lkjc8/emby-android-google-armeabi-v7a-release.apk?dl=0 And then provide a log from the app by following these instructions: Thanks !

The new apk still has the same type of image. As for getting the log files, I'm unable to get them on my Android. My phone is not rooted, and any of the explores I try from the play store won't allow to access the Android/data/ folder. Is there any other way of grabbing the Android logs, or will the server logs surface? I will note that this seems to only effect my Pixel 6 Pro, and only live TV, or recorded live TV. My other media plays just fine on it. I did test Emby on my Pixel 4XL and that plays live TV just fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Can you try the latest sideload build: https://emby.media/emby-for-android.html I added an unrelated mpegts fix today, but it's not out of the question that it might help with this. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VuongNguyen 2 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Same problem here. Google pixel 6. Using Emby for Android 3.2.77. server 4.7.8.0. been going occuring for about 2 months. I can get the color to render properly by changing the Quality setting but the video stream becomes unstable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chizz44 6 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I noticed today that when I set Live TV to 1080p - 15mb it looks fine, with the occasional stutter. When I moved it to 1080p - 20mb and above, the discoloration returned. This is on a Pixel 6a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only having issues with live tv, or recorded from live tv, so the only test file I would have would be a recorded tv...but when I just tested, I did both a recorded tv show, and a live one. Edit: looking at the two screenshots from what I had posted originally in the OG post, I see it's transcoding now....where originally it was direct stream...I'm currently at not on the local network where this is being hosted. So I guess it may not be fixed after all....I'll test when I get home and I'm on my local network that the server is on.

MikeD315 5 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Still happening for me on 3.2.82 on Pixel 7, not fixed yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneAn9ryN00b 5 Posted November 8, 2022 Author Share Posted November 8, 2022 I stand corrected, when I got back home and on my local network it went back to distorted when direct streaming. Seems as though if it's transcoded it seems to work for me. But direct stream is a no go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Issue seems to be pretty widespread and easy to duplicate on multiple Pixel phones... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, then the issue may be at the driver level with nothing the Emby team can do about it but wait for an OS update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
