Del007 0 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I have some .m3u files that work perfectly on my windows pc with VLC. When I play them on Emby, a lot of them will only play for 30 seconds or so. Is there an option for 'continuous playback' like there is in VLC?

Luke 36879 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Hi, at the moment, no. I guess we're going to have to add some special handling for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del007 0 Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 That would be amazing if you could do that. I'm beginning to really like Emby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36879 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 maybe you or someone can research if there's a way we can tell ffmpeg to stream it continuously over the command line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del007 0 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 I'd be more than willing to help but I've no idea what to do. If you could point me in the right direction then I'd love to help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexisdude 130 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) vlc accepts live stream buffering and continuous play commands as part of it's parameters . I thought i read somewhere that the same could basically be achieved with ffmpeg through the use of ffserver in tandem but dont quote me on that Edited June 26, 2016 by lexisdude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefnerd 18 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 This is a common problem with meet m3u8 chunk files. Just pipe it in using ffmpeg copying audio and video codecs outputting to ts instead of m3u8. I can give you a command if it helps? We have to run this on all m3u8 files for tvheadend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
