Hi,

 

I have a Premiere account. I am having this strange problem where 2 episodes of Customer Wars will not play video via Roku Emby app. HTTP plays fine. I am attaching log file here. You can go to the bottom (approximately 7:01 PM) and see the episodes of Customer Wars being played on the "Living Room" Roku device. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi. What exactly happens?

Hi,

It plays as if there is no problem. I have audio. But I get a black screen. It is like it is a video codec issue except when I play the video via the Emby web interface it plays fine (it also plays fine on Media Player Classic on the same machine Emby server is installed on.) I can skip forward and go back. But I just get a black screen for video.

What Roku device? Also can you please copy and paste the media info from the bottom of the web app detail screen and attach it here? Thanks.

The media info is pasted below. The Roku is built into our TTC TV. I have updated it....removed it and re-added it....same results. Thank you for the help!

Hi.  Is any ffmpeg log generated at the time it is playing and not showing video?

If you use the "Playback Correction" option in the cog menu of the OSD during playback, does this correct it?  You can select that option multiple times.

Hi,

 

Emby on a Roku doesn't offer me the ability to generate an ffmpeg log. I will try "Playback Correction" and let you know. Thank you!

There is no "Playback Correction" in the Roku version of Emby. Thanks though.

ffmpeg logs are generated at the server, which is also what plays the videos. The clients are basically just display devices. You find all logs wherever your server is configured to store them.

The server itself is where almost all video issues will be found.

Also I just checked and my Roku does offer "playback correction." You access it by pressing "down" during playback and choosing the settings menu via the star icon.

Had NO idea there was a settings cog when you press the down arrow during playback. I chose "Attempt Playback Correction" and that did fix the problem. Thank you so much!!

Hi.  Can we please see the ffmpeg log that was generated from that?

Devs may have to comment but suggests this may be a problem file.  For about 3000+ lines

19:02:29.247 [matroska,webm @ 0000023d8fec6c80] File extends beyond end of segment.
19:02:29.247 [matroska,webm @ 0000023d8fec6c80] Element at 0x2520507f ending at 0x261c9e3f exceeds containing master element ending at 0x2520642b
19:02:29.247 [matroska,webm @ 0000023d8fec6c80] Element at 0x2520508e ending at 0xad94de0ada442 exceeds containing master element ending at 0x2520643a

But if it were an issue with only 2 files I would look at trying to remux them or replace them.

Yes, my next suggestion would be trying to remux one of these to see if it corrects the issue.
