As the title I have 2 tv series that are trying to play direct but I get an error that the file could not be loaded, is there a way to tell the server to transcode these for the android TV device?

Also, are you sure it is attempting to direct play as opposed to a transcode on the server failing?

Can you please confirm the actual version number reported in the settings page of the app?  Thanks.

Could you please enable debug logging on your server, then play that item until it errors and then post the server log?  Thanks.

Sorry to say that after a update few updates it's trying to play the h.265 files again direct, this time they load and I get audio but no picture.

What version of the app?  What, exactly, does the play indicator on the OSD say?

Not error messages.  On the OSD.  What does the last gray box say?
