akira6968 5 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 So, about 1-2 months ago Emby for Android started playing most files like this, but not all. At this point, it seems to be everything. On or off wifi, transcoding or not, doesn't make a difference. I restarted the server of course, and enabled debugging in logs. I also tried the newest version of ffmpeg, cuz I dont know what I'm doing lol. Reverted back to the April 2016 version I've been using cuz newer version just resulted in black screen in most cases, this distortion otherwise. Server version 3.1.2.0 App version is up to date. Every other playback method works perfect, even when transcoding over mobile data (chrome on PC, chrome on Android). Dunno if relevant, and I know it's in the log, but I'm using a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910P). Same thing on my wife's phone.....but it's the same model LOL. Have to wait for kids to get home to try on any other models. ffmpeg-transcode-e03e47e8-4ce8-4730-844a-be3bd933f0fe.txt server-63620395407.txt 0ffcb12d-9f9a-4969-80f6-6b85e33615fb.log 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira6968 5 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Dragged out a Galaxy S3 phone....updated the app and it's either a black screen (direct stream) or it completely freezes (transcoding). I dunno lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x-cimo 23 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I just pulled the latest android beta, wiped the cache & store. Problem is still there unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-cimo 23 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Today's update appear to have fixed the issue. I'm curious, what was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Nothing was done to the video player, perhaps it was a software update on your device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-cimo 23 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 My bad. The issue is back. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira6968 5 Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 soooo..... maybe access to previous versions isn't such a bad idea? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/22871-previous-versions/ personally, I hate updates. now I've got a broken app, and a server that makes me wait 15 seconds to watch anything. :/ is it at least buffering while I wait?

akira6968 5 Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 in regards to the wait time- it's particularly inconvenient when you've only got, say, two minutes or less to watch some....adult material.... ijs. it happens, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I need to do some additional testing. it might be due to libvlc hardware acceleration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
