Hello Luke

 

Thanks so much for your continued interest.

 

Since the last log I have tried fiddling around a bit more.  I have compiled a much shorter M3U list (with only about 20 channels as opposed to the 2000+ before) with the aim of also shortening the length of the attached log file.

 

Grateful for any insight.

 

Thanks.

I believe I may be having the same issue (though the stream never starts). From the ffmpeg output it seems the URL to the playlist is passed instead of the selected stream. Downloading the M3U file and giving that filepath instead of the URL doesn't make a difference, but if I paste the command from the logs and replace the playlist URL with the playlist entry URL it seems to work.

http://${PLAYLIST_URL}&type=m3u_plus&output=ts: Invalid data found when processing input

I'm on Arch Linux, if that helps. Also, I don't see any m3u formats when I run

ffmpeg -formats

EDIT: Switching to the ffmpeg-full-nvenc AUR package fixes everything.

How did you accomplish this unless it's way to technical to share......I searched for that package and I do not understand any of the info it gives me.

 

EDIT: Awesome, figured it out....Now Emby Theater Works on Ubuntu!!!!!!!.......Spoke too soon, worked once now back to black screen unless I use external player.....

On Arch Linux, the ffmpeg-full-nvenc package is a user-contributed package in the AUR (the Arch User Repository), it can be installed through the following commands:

 

Using yay (my preferred helper):

yay ffmpeg-full-nvenc

If you don't have a helper installed, the manual process is:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/ffmpeg-full-nvenc.git
cd ffmpeg-full-nvenc
makepkg -si

You probably want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage first as compiling ffmpeg and its dependencies takes a while.

Have you tried the nvenc-enabled packages here? They might require you to have an NVIDIA card, but I don't think it's a hard requirement.

At first glance those configuration options look fine. Is it working for you?

No, I think this has been reported as some obscure GTK Issue....I'll keep using external Player with ET...5bed7894da237_Screenshotfrom201811150744
