Kubla Khan 1 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I am having trouble with my Samsung UN50KU6300F hanging during movie playback. I am using the Emby app for the Samsung. The server is an 8TB Western Digital Red 6GB/s 5400 RPM on a home network. Three movies have had the "hang" problem and none have played all the way though. They are pretty simple DVD rips to Video_TS. The hangs have occurred from 23 minutes in to about an hour. When the hang occurs the screen freezes and seems to be buffering. From that point on nothing happens. I can close the app and start over from the hang place but it hangs there again. I have the logs from the latest hang. There are 180 of them. I selected the first and last and middle logs and am attaching them to this topic title. Kubla Log First.txt Log Last.txt Log middle.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Hi, this playback requires transcoding, and transcoding of folder rip structures is something we only consider experimental. It is very important to keep that in mind. For best results, you'll want to convert to video files. So with that in mind, any kind of seeking is going to be a challenge here, so what happens if you just start from the beginning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubla Khan 1 Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 Well, 800 movies. Convert to what? Batch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 mkv and mp4 would be our suggested formats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubla Khan 1 Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 Yes, I just read a pretty good thread with advocates for both. Think I will try a couple of films in each format and maybe go with the easiest convert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
