Akilian 5 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Ever since last Server update, streaming to chromecasts has been trouble. The audio stops for a few seconds and then skips too far ahead. log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Can you discuss a little more please? When does this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akilian 5 Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Always after 2:20 minute mark. The audio skips ahead by at least 30 seconds. I think it's something with the transcoding. But I cannot figure it out. Something in the log says wasteful, not sure what that means to transcoding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigmac99 1 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Hi Luke, Is it possible whatever you pushed out has impacted trans coding to chromecast? everything worked fine last night and as of today i can no longer play trans-coding videos to any of my chromecasts. i have not made any change, they just stopped working. have been pulling my hair out all day, trying to figure out what happend. the videos transcode fine to web player and android player.. just chromecast stooped working out of the blue. Thanks, Craig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Craig. Can we look at an example? Can you please attach the emby server and ffmpeg logs? you can learn how to do that here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/ Thanks !

craigmac99 1 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the quick reply! Here are the logs. it appears from CPU usage and top output that the system is transcoding the video. however on the chromecast it only loads the (total time) for the video and then simply does nothing (just sits at splash page and stays at zero seconds / out of total time on my tablet remote control display. when i play the same video on the web player i can again see the CPU usage climb, and the video plays normally. i did a full rebuild of the server today in an attempt to fix the issue but unfortunately it did not. There are 3 ffmpeg logs based on timestamps they should be. failure to CC: ffmpeg-transcode-6fea771d-d90c-493d-bf2e-0597197e8522.txt ffmpeg-transcode-18a2c5e3-cd8c-48b8-9c28-f8c65125b98e.txt working in webplayer ffmpeg-transcode-71c0e060-f1dd-4703-b6c2-da1a0009fd37.txt all times i can confirm i can see ffmpeg process running and CPU usage is high.
