jblotka 2 Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 When Streaming my 4k UHD rips to the app on my S95B- using the Samsung app- I get this weird corruption throughout the playback. No error messages, It doesn't happen on my phone, but windows PC simply buffers like crazy. Thank you in advance for all that you do. ffmpeg-remux-982ea4be-a6ea-455e-9d5f-7a6dc5b2b09b_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblotka 2 Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 Upon further inspection, corruption occurs only with Disney files, both torrented and ripped. Although using emby on amazon fire TV results in perfect picture no matter publisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamES 891 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I think this is resolved in the current beta server with newer ffmpeg, so when it becomes the standard release you might find that this doesn't occur anymore. It is/was a common issue when remuxing UHD content. Normally I would suggest that you play another audio track to avoid remuxing, but it looks like the TrueHD track is the only one in your file. You can try using this command to add an AC3 track from the TrueHD track (ignore that it says LG/DTS - it will do what you need). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify, changing the audio will fix the picture? The audio played fine for me, it was the picture that became corrupt somewhere between the tv receiving it and displaying it.

The audio plays fine, but it’s the process of converting the audio and putting it in a new container that’s corrupting the video. By avoiding the audio conversion from TrueHD you will avoid the video corruption Last time I tested with the beta server this problem was resolved but for now adding another audio track is your only option until the next major release.

That way, the issues goes away and you now have a file that can be played by any system - you can opt to play the DTS Audio if you can - this script does not replace it. Go to your emby server system directory and find ffmpeg Then at a command window use the following to ADD an AC3 track and make it the default track :- ffmpeg.exe -i input.mkv -map 0:v -map 0:a:0 -map 0:a -map 0:s? -c:v copy -c:s copy -c:a copy -c:a:0 ac3 -disposition:a:0 default -disposition:a:1 0 output.mkv It copies all the existing tracks (original quality) and just adds an AC3 track, derived from the 1st Audio track. This will work on any mkv file incl 4K - it will not touch the original 'input.mkv' file. I'm trying to follow these directions. Starting with finding where to enter the code.

It depends on your operating system, but from your log file, try here /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/EmbyServer/bin/ffmpeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently in order to get to the .qpkg I'd need to get root access to the NAS and that's a whole process on it's own. should I just update to Emby beta?

Do you have premier license? You could use the convert feature to create a copy with the original video and a new audio track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
