CrypticOne 0 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Video displays as blank/black on the new releases of Emby for Android Client. Sound plays fine. Uninstalled, Reinstalled, Cleared Data. Nothing fixed the issue. I can use an external player and it works okay. Reverting to an older version of the client restored functionality.

Luke 37056 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Hi, what version of Android does this run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticOne 0 Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Wikipedia says FireOS 5.6.2 is based on lollipop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 What older version have you reverted to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticOne 0 Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 I had the GP version of 3.0.9. No video. Went to github and randomly selected a slightly older version 3.0.0 and it works as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Is that the most recent one that gives you video playback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axehandler 6 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) I can confirm this.  Android fire Tablet 10 inch on 5.6.2.0 installed Emby from the Google Play store 3.8 appears to be current- Audio is fine no video. Noticed this when I tried to use emby's download option on a few videos for a camping trip.. and found no video.  when attempting to install Emby from Amazon...  it shows it is not compatible with my 8 inch or 10 inch (Names cut out to protect the innocent fire tablets  )  I've not attempted to revert yet thou - Since I I also have Kodi on the Tablet and Emby linked thru that works fine.

CrypticOne 0 Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 The tags on Github don't seem to relate to version of the client.  Not sure where to download the other versions.  3.0.0 which I think is tagged 3.5.2 on Github works.  The client itself doesnt seem to show version numbers so I am relying on the app info screen to see which version I had.

Luke 37056 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I mean if you trace through the history of this file: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/commits/master/android/MediaBrowser.Mobile-googlearmv7-release.apk  It would be helpful to know which one the issue started with. thanks !

axehandler 6 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 The Aug 4th (24bfd67831f13ac5049aa0541af3f38572dc764e) release plays the videos just fine. Â uninstalled and installed the Aug 8th (6814763554b3d4f7371c56cfd2a5334fd5745748)Â which appears to be the one that breaks the video. Â uninstalled and reinstalled the Aug 4th and appears to be good again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elshagon 44 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I just installed Emby on my Fire HD 10 for the first time and had the audio and no video problem. Installed the August 4th off the Github and now it's working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badis2008 0 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I have this problem on the tablet with Android 6 remained, tried to install early versions, but not on one version of the video did not appear. You have to use a third-party player. The H. 264 codec is present in the firmware. Please help me. I apologize for my English. http://as3204t-7a93.myasustor.com/kodexplorer/index.php?share/file&user=1&sid=fIQWYxAq http://as3204t-7a93.myasustor.com/kodexplorer/index.php?share/file&user=1&sid=IzpgDX5B http://as3204t-7a93.myasustor.com/kodexplorer/index.php?share/file&user=1&sid=xSsH5jX3 http://as3204t-7a93.myasustor.com/kodexplorer/index.php?share/file&user=1&sid=p3IA8wVa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badis2008 0 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Wanted to add. Third-party players do not work with the application all. Works well with MX Player, VLC player plays only the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37056 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 They probably don't like the stream url for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
