Luke 40116 Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 No, it's not from Chromecast -- I was getting similar transcoding issues in the webapp where the player would start and then nothing would happen (no video, no audio). I'm just going to assume that I'm doing weird things with the app and I'm more or less on my own to figure out the config for my deployment. If you'd like to see a demo of what's going on with Chromecast, I can set up a http://freeconferencecall.com/ meet sometime. Can you attach the emby server log that goes along with that ffmpeg log? Thanks.
DarkFeather 3 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Posted September 30, 2020 Hey, @Luke -- I have since upgraded to 4.5.0.50, and I'm still having these issues sometimes. I've attached two log snippets, once when chromecasting and once on web. Chromecast will black screen and not progress -- no audio, no visual. Web will play the same episode just fine. I've punched some holes in my external NAT and firewall to allow even plaintext traffic for debugging, and it still won't work. Any thoughts on things I can try? web.log chromecast.log
Luke 40116 Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Can you try restarting your router and Chromecast device?
Luke 40116 Posted October 3, 2020 Posted October 3, 2020 Does your Emby Server dashboard display the correct local and remote addresses?
DarkFeather 3 Posted October 3, 2020 Author Posted October 3, 2020 Yes, it does, and I can cURL for a 200 OK to both listed addresses from the subnet in which I'm trying to cast.
DarkFeather 3 Posted October 13, 2020 Author Posted October 13, 2020 Unfortunately, @Luke , no it's not -- my Chromecast is just 'LivingRoomTV'. Nothing special in it or the wifi name. That's a weird edge case, though, so thanks for reaching out! Probably good to keep my IoT naming simple to avoid stuff like this.
Luke 40116 Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Are you willing to grant me temporary access to your server? I'd like to debug this myself from my own Chromecast devices. If you're interested, please PM me your server URL, username and password. Thanks !
Luke 40116 Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Hi there, if you're still seeing this issue, can you please try again? I've just pushed an update to our Chromecast receiver to resolve a similar issue, so it may resolve yours if it's the same thing. Thanks !
