Luke 37065 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Maybe this one should be transcoding. Do you have any that say AVC Yes? Try one of those. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution Happy2Play 8282 Posted February 13, 2017 Solution Share Posted February 13, 2017 Only thing I could think to try is the "Theme: blue neon night" app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naveedquadri 0 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 The snapshot has been taken from the windows 7 .. which is my emby server aswell. @@Luke .... transcoding is set to auto... do i need to do anything on that @@Happy2Play... will try the neon theme and update in a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I think this video should be transcoding, not direct playing. We just have to find the right criteria to use to determine that. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
