Cannot play content on a Chromecast Audio

Hi,

 

I can't seem to get anything to play from Emby to my Chromecast Audio.

 

Playing the same media locally, through the Emby web interface and to LibreElec via DLNA works fine, but Chromecast doesn't work. If I copy the URL that the Chromecast was trying to fetch and paste it into Chromium, I can play the file fine so I think transcoding is working?

 

I'm using the Android app to control playback.

 

Logfiles attached

 

Thanks,

Will

Hi, did you just setup your emby server? it would appear the library scan has not completed after adding this content.  the transcode log shows little to no media info which suggests that it hasn't been fully scanned in yet. Try running a library scan. thanks !

Server has been running for a couple of weeks, those files just don't have much metadata. I've just managed to play some tracks from a music album, is there some difference for items in a library with the 'Music' type vs the 'Book' type? The items I'm having trouble playing are Audio Books

Ah yes ok - that is resolved for the next release. In a music library they would be fine, as a temporary workaround.
