Linuxnut 1 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Hello, Since some time I'm not capable of watching transcoded content under a http proxy in the client side on some devices. If I set the maximum bandwith (1000 Mbps) in the playback settings (or the android APP settings) I can play any content but if I restrict the bandwith (transcoding?) then I can't play anything. When I try to play It asks for the audio track and the subtitles and then it fails to play. My current config: Client: Raspberry Pi 2 Emby 2.2.10 Kodi Isengard 15.2 Openelec 6.0.3 Nexus 10 Android tablet with emby app installed. Server: Windows Server 2012 R2 EMBY Version 3.0.5972.0 Some other info: Working clients under http proxy: Windows and Chrome browser Windows and Kodi with emby kodi app. None working clients under http proxy: Raspberry Pi 2 Emby 2.2.10 Kodi (Isengard, Jarvis and Helix) Openelec 6.0.3 (openelec 5.x, openelec 6.7.x beta and OSMC) Android Nexus 10 with emby app. Windows with Firefox I atteched the server and kodi logs Any suggestion?

Angelblue05 4130 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 all content? In your specific example, it seemed you were trying to transcode a blu-ray rip (if not, can you provide the media info)? I don't think the server support transcode for this type of file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linuxnut 1 Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 Hello, Thanks for the reply. All content with high resolution, in my knowladge: all content wich has to be transcoded. If I disable the proxy and I try to play the media within NAT it works perfectly. In conclusion: all my media without proxy can be played in the same devices.

Angelblue05 4130 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Does it create a server log for transcode when you try to play the content in Kodi? I will have to update our playback aspect soon to accommodate for the newer server features. Could you do me a favor for now, enable debug in kodi and try to play something that will fail. Post your new Kodi log, I just want to see if we can pinpoint the reason for the failure - if it's coming from Kodi or the server. Thanks! Edit: I'm fairly certain we have another user with reverse proxy - I don't know if they have the same issue...

Linuxnut 1 Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Hello Here you are. I think the key part is that: 01:01:19 79.001472 T:1567618112 ERROR: ffmpeg[5D6FF440]: [tcp] Failed to resolve hostname casandra.vidal.xxx: Name or service not known 01:01:19 79.002151 T:1567618112 DEBUG: Error, could not open file http://casandra.vidal.xxx:80/emby/Videos/c3b4a408945d579b7f8e2d95ee168ce9/main.m3u8?MediaSourceId=c3b4a408945d579b7f8e2d95ee168ce9&VideoCodec=h264&AudioCodec=ac3&MaxAudioChannels=6&deviceId=D908C39905804AEF89B3951B57F90E58&VideoBitrate=4700000&AudioStreamIndex=1&AudioBitrate=384000 Thanks in advance kodi.log Edited July 1, 2016 by Linuxnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Kodi is complaining about this (line 974 in your log), this is why it's unable to playback the file. I am not sure how this can be resolved...

Linuxnut 1 Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Hello I found that http://www.rieter.net/content/2013/11/23/about-proxies-and-streaming/ "However, as soon as Kodi starts playing a stream, Retrospect is unloaded and any requests made by Kodi will no longer use the proxy. To solve this issue, I added a patch to pass a proxy on to Kodi for a specific stream." and a kodi bug https://bitbucket.org/basrieter/xbmc-online-tv/issues/649/cannot-watch-uitzendinggemist-with-proxy Maybe It might help Edited July 1, 2016 by Linuxnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 At this time, I would suggest you post in the Kodi forums to make the Kodi devs aware of this bug. Here was the proxy thread I was referring to: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/29196-reverse-proxy-url/?hl=proxy / Somehow, it seems like @@Middling got it working.
