shorty1483 450 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Like the title says, some videos of my collection suffer from heavy tearing when playing in WebClient based Clients (WebClient/Theater WebBased). 1. This just does occur when video stream is copy in Chrome. 2. When same video gets transcoded by server, the tearing is gone. 3. Other apps like Android, Theater, Kodi, MPC-HC as external player are not affected. 4. This does not occur on every video, just on some of them, but til now I was not able to nail down the culprit in the affected files. I can upload and and PM a sample if needed by Devs. File1_full_transcode_no_tearing.txt File1_video_copy_tearing.txt File2_video_copy_but_no_tearing.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I don't see any tearing in that image. Am I just missing it? I see compression macro-blocking which would be related to bitrate though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty1483 450 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Ok, let us name it blocking or artefacts. If video gets transcoded to e.g. lower bitrates, the blocking is gone. It occurs just with video stream copy in chrome.Could you rename thread title to "heavy blocking..."?Gesendet von meinem HTC One_M8 mit Tapatalk Edited March 8, 2016 by Happy2Play renamed topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37008 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 it's only temporary after a seek right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty1483 450 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 it's only temporary after a seek right? No, unfortunately it's straight from the beginning with stream copy on the affected files. First I thought it could be color profile settings in the source file, but I also got lots of files with the same video stream structure not showing artefacts. As soon as the file gets transcoded (e.g. using Opera or lower stream bandwidth in Chrome) the blocking artefacts are totally gone. I could PM you a 30 sec. snippet if you need.

TopSideControl 11 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 it's only temporary after a seek right? I've the same issue but only with Chrome, firefox is working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty1483 450 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) I've the same issue but only with Chrome, firefox is working fine. Right, because Emby Server transcodes the video stream to VP8. After Emby ffmpeg touches the affected files, the blocking is gone. The problem just persists when video stream is copied, which is currently just possible with Chrome. Edited March 13, 2016 by shorty1483 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
