Castor234 2 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Hello, My Emby server has been running smoothly for about a month now and I have had no problems. Yesterday evening, for no apparant reason, I stopped being able to stream any TV shows or Movies. I first noticed this on the server itself when I tried to play a show while working at another computer. The show page loaded, then when I clicked 'play' on the episode Emby loaded the playback screen with the loading wheel. After a few seconds, I got an error stating "No compatible streams are currently available. Please try again later or contact your system administrator for details." I am not sure what this means. I have confirmed that the bitrate limit field in the settings is blank. There was no one else streaming anything at that time. I replicated the problem on my phone (over LAN and then WAN). I restarted the emby server, same error. I restarted my windows PC and applied windows updates and same error. I have tried to use a couple of different accounts on a couple of devices and have not been able to play anything back. Error logs from my last attempt attached. EDIT: I also noticed that at the same time, images stopped loading for most of my files (screen shot attached) embyserver.txt ffmpeg-transcode-b523cad4-290f-4730-a85a-4ced39e37ca6_1.txt ffmpeg-transcode-c2055e20-9ad9-4a6d-9ece-ef517cb20900_1.txt Edited October 31, 2019 by Castor234
Solution Castor234 2 Posted October 31, 2019 Author Solution Posted October 31, 2019 After a bit more trouble shooting, I noticed that my "z:\" drive was not showing up in windows explorer. Apparently the eSATA cable from my RAID enclosure came lose, but there were no error lights, etc. to notify me of a lost connection. After plugging it back in everything seems to be fine. 1
Castor234 2 Posted October 31, 2019 Author Posted October 31, 2019 Thanks for the feedback ! I saw someone else with this error but no resolution. Maybe if the file can't be found the error message could be more descriptive? The verbiage used makes it seem like a network/streaming problem instead if a HW/file system issue.
Luke 40067 Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Yes it's something that can be improved. Thanks for the feedback.
