BUG: Video position control does not work

[blue-wizard 2]

I have an Emby Theater client running on Windows 10.

I am using the Emby client for Android as a remote control.

 

Video playback works, but the video position control on the Android app is broken:

• Videos begin at a position of 0:00 (so far, so good)
• Video length is incorrectly reported as --:--
• The video position does not change as the video is playing
• When I try to change the video position using the slider, the video starts over

 

-------------------------------

 

EDIT:

I am running Emby server version 3.2.60.0. 

Here is a server log file generated during playback where I used the control. (I'm not sure how helpful this is?).

hi @@blue-wizard, we're sorry to hear about this. please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. thanks !

Hi @@Luke. Thanks for the link.

 

I added a server log to the original post.

I assume the post now meets the requirements for a media playback issue report?

Hi, that log is coming up as forbidden. If there was an ffmpeg log please make sure to attach that too. Thanks.

Try this link instead? There was no ffmpeg log. It was playing media sync'd to the Emby Theater client.

 

Thanks!

ok, does this happen if you play media from the server?

[blue-wizard 2]

No. If I play media from the server on my Android, then the video location control works.

 

For completeness' sake, I also tried using the Android app as a control for the Emby Chrome app, and it has the same issue as with Emby Theater. This time it was streaming, but it was streaming in original quality so ffmpeg wasn't being used.

The video control is working now with the latest version.
