CBers 6766 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 CBers, you're wrong! Nvidia did actually mention it was fixed in the public release. Wrong about what ? Nvidia said they had fixed it, but they haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strupie 0 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Yeah ok, so Nvidia has screwed up their release... that's being obvious from all the comments. But like FrostByte said, they will attempt a fix in the next release... are you F*K*G kidding me... I'll be not waiting for 6 months AGAIN and hope they finally fixed it. I was going to upgrade to an Emby lifetime account if this was fixed, but now I don't see any other possibility to swith over to Plex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviefan 183 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'll be not waiting for 6 months AGAIN and hope they finally fixed it. I imagine that the beta hotfix for this release is going to be available fairly soon. People in the nvidia forums are fairly upset with all sorts of issues. Just hoping the patch includes the Emby fix as it is clearly not a priority for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviefan 183 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Would appear that my sentiment is spot on. There is ALREADY a hotfix out for one of the controllers issues. I posted there asking if they could roll the Emby fix into it and not only was my post ignored, it was deleted by a moderator. So we are completely back in the dark waiting for this as they STILL list is as fixed on the release notes of the current 8.0 version even know acknowledging all users have reported it is broken. The sniper guy can be pretty responsive over there. He can also be a major douchebag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strupie 0 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Yeah, I don't understand either. If they were able to fix it in the beta program, what's holding them back to reintroduce the code in a hotfix. That shouldn't be hard now is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdiesel 1113 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Question is was it actually fixed in the beta program or are we just going off of a report of a Nvidia dev who tested against exo player? It may not have actually been fixed or it may be an Emby issue still. The Emby devs really should be participating in the shield beta program as it is the flagship ATV device that most users are using. Plex seems to have a very close partnership with Nvidia and a close working relationship, why isn't this the case for Emby? The fact that it was working and still is working in Plex only shows that it is possible and that passing it off to the other party, whether that be Emby or Nvidia, will not result in a fix for this issue.

Guest asrequested Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I agree. It's time Emby took control of its own issue, and work to find a solution. Clearly, Nvidia are an absolute mess. Make your product work, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 This issue was never fixed in any available version of Shield firmware - beta or otherwise. Specifically, sniper said it wasn't a problem on "the internal build he was running". The beta/special release build they were providing by request did not contain the fix ever either. So, it may just be that this fix has never made it past whatever development build that sniper was testing against. We communicated with both Google and nVidia and were told it would be fixed in the next release. Not sure what else you wanted us to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I agree. It's time Emby took control of its own issue, It has been proven that it isn't our issue. The problem was reproduced by Google with stock Exoplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdatanet 1549 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Developing a player is a task that consumes many resources, visit the Apple TV forum and you will know what I am talking about. In my opinion Nvidia must solve the problems. Previously I requested that an own player for Android TV to be developed, but now I realize that I was wrong.

Guest asrequested Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It has been proven that it isn't our issue. The problem was reproduced by Google with stock Exoplayer. But apparently it can be resolved by other means. As we see with those plucky Plex people. At some point you should stop depending on Nvidia. They aren't coming to the rescue.

FrostByte 5042 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 The Xbox doesn't trigger HDR either and that's been going on for years now. At some point you have to move on. I don't know if we're at that point yet, but if in 2 years Nvidia is still ignoring the problem you might want to consider going that route. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest asrequested Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 This is the approach taken on Apple TV but they have stayed halfway. There are many ways to build mpv, so it takes time to figure all that out. I keep meaning to revise my build process, but other things keep taking up my time. I need to set aside enough time to get on IRC and talk to the community. At some point I want to building my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strupie 0 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Quick update on:Cropped content in Emby not playing in HDR. The original report came into us through an Exoplayer bug. We've fixed the Exoplayer bug and confirmed that fix is good in 8.0, but for some reason things are still not working in Emby. Still working to understand why. At least they are looking at it... but I have a feeling they're putting the ball back in Emby's court. Any admins wanting to give Sniper a heads up on what's still not working, maybe providing logs and debug info from the latest builds.
