btgerold 3 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Every thing seems to be working fine today, but i have had intermittent problems with this over the last couple of months... It never seemed to happen to newer recordings... Only older ones that I had moved to a network drive Edited April 23, 2016 by btgerold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37095 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 If you use the built-in Emby TV, try the option to convert recordings on the fly to streaming friendly formats. Or check out the Folder Sync feature to convert pre-existing recordings: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Folder%20Sync wtv is the single most difficult format for video software to work with. ffmpeg always seems to have a hard time with it, so converting will make your life easier.

btgerold 3 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'm in the same boat as bmoses with my setup... Old tuner that last I checked was not supported by the built in Emby TV. @@bmoses have you tried other files? to verify if it's just the one, or all of them...
