cochize1 38 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I know that IPTV services sometimes can be unstable and tend to freeze and stutter during some live events but I was hoping someone could help me handle all the settings in Emby before I can blame my provider. My Emby server is latest version 4.1.1.0 on Synology NAS DS218+. I use Emby Theater to watch live tv (IPTV with ts m3u file) because it won't start in my Chrome directly (the content is streamed since I can tell seeing my download/upload meter but I just get spinning cycle and no actual stream, not sure why because it plays fine in Microsoft Edge; I already contacted Luke in that matter). Every now and then I gut stutter or freeze during play in Emby Theater and it correaltes with error alerts in logs, mainly: - Error PortMapper: Error creating port map - Error App: FfmpegCommandHandler:SendThrottleCommand Timeout waiting for throttle confirmation Attached logs from yesterday while I was watching Leicester - City game and two other users were watchin latest GoT episode. I also attach ffmpeg log from around that time but not sure if it is neccesary or relevant to my problem. Afetr the game I disabled throttling and set H.264 encoding CRF to "18" hoping that might help somehow (but I have no idea how does it work and what is the purpose of that). I was hoping someone could help me out with the stream buffer proble before today's Champions League semifinal.

Luke 36815 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Hi, this ffmpeg log is from a video file. Are you sure it's the right one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cochize1 38 Posted May 7, 2019 Author Share Posted May 7, 2019 Well, not sure to be honest, since there are around 10-15 different ffmepg logs around that time and I just posted the latest one. Should I send all others? Or how can I know which one is the right one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cochize1 38 Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 So, the game lasted from 21:00 till 23:00 local time and I have sorted logs through their modification time and all ffmpeg logs refered to the series being streamed by other users, except for this one attached, refering to a .ts stream (my IPTV), but it only lasted for 41 seconds. Does it show anything poiting to the errors that might have caused the stream to buffer. I really wish I can set everything the best way possible in my Emby server. Refering to the port errors, maybe I should open some for my Synology to work/stream properly even thought the UPnP is set? ffmpeg-remux-9b644993-1f8c-458c-b17c-b0f40e904553_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36815 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hi, can you try lowering the in app quality setting to force a fill transcode? Please see if that helps. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
