jinxy88 0 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 "Also when an external srt subtitle is selected before play, Emby theater never plays the srt and sometimes it plays the default embedded subtitle track instead." Exactly the same thing happens to me aswell, but didnt describe it like you did @@Senna @ Angelblue05 any news about this too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The server returns the container as mkv even if it's a strm. The filename is The Secret Man.1080p.dca.mkv.strm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horstepipe 356 Posted March 15, 2018 Author Share Posted March 15, 2018 Okay, this is how the content of my strm files look like if it helps: https://url/default.py?mode=video&filename=xxx @@Luke just caught my eye that since v3.3.1.5 .nfo files are being created in my media folders, although I have the option to save metadata within media folders disabled. Is this a requirement for the new strm file features? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddurdle 75 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) Yeah, I guess we'll wait on what Luke says. I'm not familiar with how the server works. If we can fix this, then we are one step closer to getting this to work. Horstepipe is using direct stream passthrough so if he plays playsback a strm pointing to a mkv file on a http server, it will receive back a MKV file but I think the http server will deliver back an application/octet-stream type (and not video/x-matroska). I'll double check this, but I think Google returns an application type video/* for everything except MKV. KODI itself does not have issues playing back the same stream via a STRM file. His issue only happens when he's playing back in Emby for KODI. Edited March 15, 2018 by ddurdle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelblue05 4130 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Sorry what do you need to know? When we use the server to get playback info for strm, the container key says mkv instead of strm. We tried refreshing the entry but it won't budge. I'm not sure how to detect the strm otherwise.

Please post your Kodi log. You say the problem persists, but now it might be for different reasons, so stop wasting time, post your log to help get this move along and cut the useless back and forth.

Angelblue05 4130 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Is this happening because I'm using PlaybackInfo from the server? If so then I can probably figure out a way to adjust to it. Maybe looking at the original item for that particular thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
