Playback Error No compatible streams are currently available

[Guest]

Hello, 

 

I just upgraded to the latest emby-server version and now I am unable to stream any content. 
This happens with any browser and any operating system (Windows, Edge, Linux, chromium based ...)

 

After hitting the play button of a recording (tvheadend) or any media file (mkv, avi) I receive the following error:

 

Playback Error

No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details.

 

 

 

I tried rebooting the server and updating all software but nothing helped. I have tried several types of media all of which I know worked in the past. 
This is with the emby web player. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, can you try with a video file in your library, rather than going through tvheadend? Thanks.

Hello Luke, 

 

As mentioned in the initial post, this happens with any media file - also with library media files (mkv and avi)
The log outputs are similar.

Can you provide a log example from that? Thanks !

[Guest]

Of course. 
Here is the ffmpeg log. 

Do you need the server log as well?

@@Razorblade, this is strange. There's nothing obvious here. Can you please try the new 4.1 server release? thanks !

OK, I finally found out this has something to to with the Linux version of the client browser. 
I got it working in Windows but the error remains with Linux clients. 

Do you know which codecs need to be installed in Linux? This is strange as it used to work before.

Do your browsers not include h264 support?

Yes, they do. I can watch videos and listen to music on other sites but with emby I receive this error.

Awesome!

After updating to the latest emby version (4.1.1) playing media in the browser is working again. 

 

Thank you very much.
