Ksample8686 2 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I having a lot of trouble direct playing any stream where emby uses the MPEG2VIDEO (Main) codec. If it changes to H264 then it plays with no issue. Ill put my logs below. What other info would you like? server-63648779162.txt ffmpeg-remux-8bbd3584-bb90-4090-88ff-b13889d1cdfe - PLAYS FINE.txt ffmpeg-remux-4b1edbc9-d8d8-4a3b-9efe-e9bd810df17f - DOESNT PLAY @ ALL.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14903 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Hi. Can you please explain exactly what happens? What is "trouble playing"? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ksample8686 2 Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 Keeps freezing every 5 to 10 secs when I try and direct play. If I lower the bitrate and it transcodes it plays fine but I'm direct playing to reduce strain on my computer. And it's only on that codec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 It may not really have anything to do with the codec. That could just be a correlation and this is something related to the channels involved. In both examples you gave, the video is stream copied and the requested bitrate is the same.
