Emby Android TV clients interrupted by Xbox One

I'm posting this to determine if anyone out there has a similar issue to what I am experiencing.

 

The moment my Xbox One is turned on and gets an IP address, all emby clients start buffering every 15-30 seconds, almost as if my LAN is saturated.

 

My setup works perfectly streaming HD to three TV's no sweat, up until the Xbox is turned on.

 

What I have tried so far:

 

  • Debug logging turned on within emby server shows nothing out of the ordinary.
  • Enabled ADB on Android TV's and used logcat to view logs. No errors.
  • Made sure the Xbox One isn't saturating the network downloading anything.
  • Turned off DLNA support in Emby.
  • Ensured Synology NAS has plenty of CPU/RAM/Bandwidth whilst streaming.
  • Using a separate VLAN for Xbox, yet somehow it still affects the clients!!!

My setup:

  • Container running ArchLinux with emby-server package installed. (plenty of RAM/CPU, no hardware transcoding, premium purchased).
  • Emby server has local mount to a Synology NAS with a mapped network path for direct play.
  • All emby clients are up to date Bravia Android TVs (2019), with the majority of media using direct play.

At this stage I think I am going crazy. Anyone have any ideas?

What are the specs of your server?  Sounds like it might be transcoding for the xbox and your server isn't powerful enough to handle it.  Check for a transcode log.

That's just it, I don't stream anything to the Xbox at all. The emby client isn't even installed on it. We only ever stream to the Android TVs.

 

Regardless the specs:

 

* 4 Virtual CPUs

* 8G ram

* No GPU

That's pretty odd.  Attach the server logs wen this starts happening.  Perhaps your network is being saturated by DLNA requests?  Perhaps a packet storm?  What router/network setup do you have?
