Emby Theater and Android TV play the videos.
Is there any way to debug the Android Mobile app?

It's definitely an issue on the server due to the nfs mount. It's not an issue in the mobile app.

[jaimedelano]

What do you suggest I do?

I have two servers v3.5.3 and v3.6.0.81 (beta).

[Luke]

I'm going to look through the .net core repository for any reported issues related to this. The most practical advise i can give is not to use the mounts, because i have a feeling this issue is out of our control. Thanks.

When error ocurrs it seems the server serve up partial contents of the video file.

If I replace Static=true with Static=false in the URL, I can see the whole video contents:

curl -L 'http://MY_SERVER_IP:...442/stream.mp4?Static=false&mediaSourceId=08aafed7364a23f17cb2ad1c8ef78aae&deviceId=XXX'

I need NFS. I have many terabytes of videos. I can play them on Plex, but I want to use Emby too.

[jaimedelano]

Is there any workaround?
For example, a pre play script to copy remote files to local disk on demand?

Exactly, because when you stream the original file statically, we use .net core I/O methods to transmit the original file, and this is where the limitation lies.

 

When ffmpeg is involved, it supports the nfs links natively, and that's why there's no problem. Sorry, I will investigate, but I'm not sure we can do anything about this.

[jaimedelano]

Update: I think this issue is not related specifically to NFS. I guess the main point is that is Emby/.Net core does not support symbolic links.
I have replaced all symbolic links with hard links and now Emby plays the videos.

Yes that is correct. We are waiting on this:
