Chromecast video stops after a second of playback

[usrtrv 0]

Chromecast video and subtitle playback lasts about a second then stops (audio keeps going for about 1 minute then stops).

Casting from in-browser and android has same symptoms.

Video plays fine in-browser and on android.

Most videos work fine with Chromecast.

 

Emby Version: 3.0.8200.0 (3.0.8100.0 had same result)

Linux Version: Centos 7

Hmm, what is the media info from the file as seen in the web app? It's possible that it's direct playing something that should be transcoding.
