Stramm 1 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 If I convert (click the convert link) media and then play it on the TV all is working as expected, the video plays. If I use the sync plugin and sync to a folder, select in the dropdown of the selected mredia that file and try to play it on the TV it fails with displaying 'not a supported format'. If I check the transcode logs, both jobs use the same ffmpeg command and both recoded videos have the same size. sync job: /bin/ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -f matroska -i file:"/srv/dev-disk-by-label-Backup/@Movies/Movies/_recode_cinema 9/Der Legionär (1998)/Der Legionär (1998).mkv" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map -0:s -c:v:0 h264_vaapi -force_key_frames "expr:gte(t,n_forced*5)" -b:v:0 3193412 -maxrate 3193412 -bufsize 6386824 -profile high -level 4.1 -look_ahead 0 -vsync -1 -map_metadata -1 -map_chapters -1 -threads 0 -codec:a:0 copy -metadata:s:a:0 language=ger -disposition:a:0 default -y "/transcode_tmp/47/32/49d34814-1b0d-4413-937a-b4b079b062f4.mp4" -rw-r--r-- 1 Jever users 2361283806 Feb 4 18:11 Der Legionär (1998).mp4 and the emby convert function: /bin/ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -f matroska -i file:"/srv/dev-disk-by-label-Backup/@Movies/Movies/_recode_cinema 9/Der Legionär (1998)/Der Legionär (1998).mkv" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map -0:s -c:v:0 h264_vaapi -force_key_frames "expr:gte(t,n_forced*5)" -b:v:0 3193412 -maxrate 3193412 -bufsize 6386824 -profile high -level 4.1 -look_ahead 0 -vsync -1 -map_metadata -1 -map_chapters -1 -threads 0 -codec:a:0 copy -metadata:s:a:0 language=ger -disposition:a:0 default -y "/transcode_tmp/48/33/0ac2521a-5229-4e98-92a3-9b3e0b06ad23.mp4" -rw-r--r-- 1 Jever users 2361283806 Feb 4 18:24 Der Legionär (1998) - tv.mp4 Just the file name of the encoded movie differs. So if I had to guess what's happening, then I'd say emby doesn't play the recoded (vie the plugin) movie but tries the original one. And that one fails. But how can I check this or is there something I'm doing wrong or maybe expecting a functionality where nothing exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stramm 1 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Of course... maybe I should add, that I use the Android App to play the movie on the TV. embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stramm 1 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 And cause you mentioned the app... I tried to play the movie via the TV app and here it's working. I haven't seen a possibility to choose which version to use, so I can't tell exactly what version is playing. However the original one wouldn't play beforhand.

Stramm 1 Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 Hi Luke, any idea yet what I could do? Would uninstalling the Samsung app be an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37253 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 @@Stramm If it's 2.2.4 then I'm afraid this feature is not supported in that app. You're using the community app that was built for older Samsung TV's, and I'm pretty sure this feature was never added to that. What model TV do you have? You really should use our official app if you have a supported model for it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stramm 1 Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 It's an E series model and it seems the official app doesn't support it. What a pity Nevertheless, thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
