Transcoding low bitrate mp4 ?

October 19, 2017

Not sure whether this post belongs in the Apple TV or the Server forum.

I was playing an mp4 file (AVC + AAC) on the Apple TV but according to the server it was transcoding because the bitrate was too high.

I had the ATV bitrate set to Auto and then later I tried specifically setting it to 40MBs - with no difference.

Here's the appropriate lines from the log:

This is the same video that the the two sets of subtitles that I mentioned in the other thread.

But it doesn't look like it was actually encoding the subs into the video.

What kind of item is this in the Emby system? Is it classified as a trailer?

Also, was the above when you had it set to Auto or 40Mb?

It's a TV episode. The output above was for Auto - but even after I changed it to 40Mb the ffmpeg log was identical and the server log still showed "max bitrate: 1500000".

As a quick test, can you re-start the app (be sure and force-close it) and try that item again?

Sorry, not yet.

OK, just checked - it now direct plays.

But, strangely I'm getting the small subtitles (high up on the screen) where previously I was getting two sets of subs - the small ones plus the ATV styled ones lower down.

On the episode's detail screen there's a subtitle button where I can choose subs or not (it was preselected to show subs) - but if I bring down the details during playback the subtitle tab is missing (it was there previously).

Okay, exactly where is this item from? Is it an IPTV channel or is it really an episode inside a series in Emby? The app thinks this is remote channel content so it is limiting the bitrate.

What is the format of the subs and are they internal or external. The subtitle support in the Apple player is very limited which is why we have to have the way to select them externally.

It's a TV episode stored locally on my NAS. The subs are external SRT, but I've seen the same thing with internally muxed SRT subs.

Can you invite me as a guest to your server and give me access to this item so I can look at what is really going on?

The subs are external SRT, but I've seen the same thing with internally muxed SRT subs.

The Apple player has no way of knowing about those subs because they are not a part of the video when we are direct playing them. Therefore, the only way to play them is to tell Emby you want them through the special playback menu. When the item is being transcoded, we can sometimes package up the subs and send them along with the video stream so that the player knows they are there. We can't do that when direct playing.
