Martini 1 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) Hello, I'm new to Emby and I'm having issues playing my media on a Roku. I can see my server and files, but when playing, I just see a spinning circle at 99%. This never goes away. When checking my Emby Server dashboard on my Windows PC, the activity shows I watched the episode even though it never displayed. Attached is a log for my most recent attempt. I did check the Roku firmware and have the most recent version. Any thoughts? ffmpeg-directstream-b0c2c1e3-1fb5-45ab-bcae-6c8ed7d48071_1.txt Edited February 21, 2023 by Happy2Play removed external address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Does this only happen on "mpg" files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37106 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Also can you please attach the log file again? Both the emby server and ffmpeg log files. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Sorry my edit affect the previously attached file. Corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted February 21, 2023 Author Share Posted February 21, 2023 Attached is the embyserver.txt, however, I was just playing videos on the PC to verify that they work, which they do. Also attached is the FFmpeg log. Happy2Play: mpg files are the only files I have. I have been using Freemake and that was the default file format. Thank you so much!ffmpeg-directstream-b0c2c1e3-1fb5-45ab-bcae-6c8ed7d48071_1.txt embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14926 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Hi. I believe this is a server issue and it has been addressed for the next release of the server (4.8.x). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted February 21, 2023 Author Share Posted February 21, 2023 Thank you, I check out the server version I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 Anyone have advice as to how to install 4.8? I found this link, but I have no idea which file to download for Windows 10. https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/tag/4.8.0.21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 4.8.0.21 did not fix the spinning 99% wheel on Roku device playback. Attached are the most recent logs if anyone is willing to take a look. Thanks! ffmpeg-directstream-a0221084-9e52-44a6-934d-612a51ce60bc_1.txt embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 I confirmed that the server works on a smart tv but still not with a Roku device. It must be the Roku. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8296 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Might be the Roku Range Requests issue but devs will have to comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwhodges 1532 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I thought the range-requests thing was a dead letter now. I've removed my proxy's command to block them, and the Roku continues to work just fine. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14926 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Aren't we still waiting on the next server beta to address this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini 1 Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 Unfortunately, yes. My stand alone roku hangs on the loading circle 99%. I have a smart TV with a Roku operating system and Emby works fine on that. I've updated Roku firmware, but the stand alone box doesn't want to work. I did download a beta Emby server, but that didn't change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martini 1 Posted April 27, 2023 Author Share Posted April 27, 2023 I am unfortunately. I’ve largely given up on it until I get a different Roku or migrate to different software. Thanks for checking in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, we think this is resolved in the beta server 4.8.0.34+ in case you're able to try that. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy_Williams 0 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 i guess its a server issue thats why it stopped at 99% https://dailyguidesking.com/smart-tv-vs-roku-whats-the-difference/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37106 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 If anyone needs immediate relief, we think there may be improvement with this in the upcoming 4.8 server release, in case you have any interest in trying the server beta channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
