dcook 265 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) So I noticed in the Beta when watching an episide at the end it freezes for a microsecond and then replays a second or two from earlier in the episode. Once it replays those seconds again it then goes back to the episode menu. Edited February 21, 2017 by dcook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Sound like the HLS Direct Streaming issues that has been reported a couple times. I bet only the audio track is being converted on the media you are seeing this happen to, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcook 265 Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 No it replays a few seconds both video and audio, its almost like someone hit the rewind button by accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Right, but is there a directstreaming log created? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcook 265 Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Hi, I am not sure what you mean? Its a known issue that will be fixed? Or I need to change something on my settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) I know Luke is trying to figure a way around the issue. Edited March 6, 2017 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles 1917 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 This is a trade-off. Ease transcoding and introduce issues with keyframes ...or... fully transcode and hit the cpu harder? To be or not to be? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/40510-blue-neon-light-ending-file-playback/?p=378543 Could be worse, on AppleTV the issue causes the video to just abruptly stop without reaching the entire end. I would rather have looping, than aborted playback and missing the end of everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcook 265 Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Can this be an advanced option then? I would rather transcode then have it rewind and replay at the end of every episode or movie. This is a trade-off.

ebr 14910 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Yes, unfortunately, this is not unique to the beta or even Roku. It is an issue with trying to convert only part of the item on the fly and then deliver it via the protocol that the Roku wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Grace1313 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Kind of along those lines, has anyone noticed sometimes when starting a show you get the larger retrieving line and then a smaller loading line after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is something completely different and is related to the player loading the proper audio/subtitle streams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcook 265 Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 This bug seems to be getting worse. Now in the non preview app, sometimes the last few seconds of the show is being repeated not once but 2 or 3 times before it returns back to the Episode Menu Can this bug be moved up the priority list?

This has been in all apps that use HLS. The longer the media the more repeat segments that happen. Edited March 6, 2017 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its a known bug in other apps as well, should it not have high priority? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 They have been trying to find a workaround for the issue. But currently haven't been able to. And there would be more complaints with a full transcode over taxing low powered servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcook 265 Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 If you don't want to fix the issue because low power servers would be over taxed, can we have an optional setting then to fix the issue? I am not concerned with low power servers, I have plenty of CPU cores. Having the show or movie repeat few seconds 2 or 3 times is the biggest problem I have and what my family and friends are complaining about the most. They have been trying to find a workaround for the issue. But currently haven't been able to. And there would be more complaints with a full transcode over taxing low powered servers.
