hayrund 14 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I've been testing my HDHomerun for OTA and I've noticed that the speed to click "play / Tune to Channel" on a channel and the time in which it starts is vastly different between a wireless iPad 2018 and a wired nVidia Shield TV. I was expecting the wired Shield TV to be light years ahead of the iPad, but it's the complete opposite. iPad 2018 start: 2-3 seconds nVidia Shield TV: 10-13 seconds Emby Premiere Server 3.5.3.0 Is this expected behavior?

ebr 14910 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Hi. We'd have to look at specifics but, one possibility is that the first attempt to play is failing and we are having to fall back to error correction.

CBers 6770 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Do you have the "Expose Closed Captions in live and recorded TV" option enabled? Options, App Settings, Live TV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Do you have the "Expose Closed Captions in live and recorded TV" option enabled? Options, App Settings, Live TV. This is only in the beta and is completely irrelevant to tuning speed. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annecdotal evidence says otherwise, but once it's fully in the wild, more people will have access to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one has produced any evidence of that and I cannot see how this feature could be related to start speed since it isn't even interrogated until after the stream starts playing.

Sammy 735 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 @@ebr I have always had excruciatingly slow channel load times on ShieldTV served via ethernet from my i5 4690k. Slow on web client or ET on the same machine too. This is one of my biggest "just accept it" items but hopefully it can be improved!

mastrmind11 717 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Problem being, it's not universal. My load times are like under 3 seconds. That's the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayrund 14 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 Do you have the "Expose Closed Captions in live and recorded TV" option enabled? Options, App Settings, Live TV. It was on. I flipped off and it's the same speed. No difference. I'll work on getting a bug report submitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hayrund 14 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) I'm using HDHOMERUN Quatro, Windows Server 2016, 32gb of ram and local storage for recordings. Makes me wonder if it's OTA vs cable card? Well no right? It's got to be software client since it's loading up just fine in IOS. I'll check my hardwired Apple TV client next.

Could it be that you're using Linux and I'm using Windows 7?I do boot off of SSD, have my Emby data on a separate SSD and record to yet a third SSD. http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Xeon-E3-1225-v3-vs-Intel-Core-i5-4690K Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayrund 14 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 As a quick follow-up, Apple TV 4K performed as slowly as Shield version. Playback via Shield stats for nerds: Player: ExoPlayer Play Method: Remix Stream Type: HLS Video Codec: MPEG2VIDEO (direct) Transcode Reason: Unsupported Container No clue why it's saying it's transcoding, but I'd guess that's why it's slow?
