Hi, Luke,

 

I have sporadically played a few movies after the update, only this one was noticeable until now.

 

But what is noticeable is that in the webapp or the app for Android the movie is played, but not in combination with Android TV (Nvidia Shield). As said, before the server update everything was running.

Hello softworkz,

 

"Extract the zip file

Put Emby.DiagnosticsPlugin.dll into the “plugins” subfolder of your Emby installation

Restart Emby

After installing, there will be two additional navigation menu entries in the server dashboard menu."

-> no, no additional menu entries are displayed?  :(

Thanks for the log.

 

The important question though: Did it actually work after activating that diagnostic setting?

Please excuse the late reply.

 

By activating the legacy command building, we have activated the ffmpeg command building of the earlier Emby Server versions.

The video is being stream-copied only, so the newer ffmpeg version can be ruled out as a possible cause as well.

 

That leaves us to the following possibilities why it might have been working before

  • It wasn't the same file
    .
  • You had configured some bandwidth limit earlier which would have caused transcoding
    .
  • Maybe there has been some change to the Emby Client for Shield
    The Shield Client reports that it supports HEVC Main10 Profile, I'm not sure whether that is correct
    .
    Maybe @@ebr has some idea?

Hello,

 

  • yes, it's the same file
  • no, no changes were made to the server (bandwidth limit)

 

And as I said, the file can be played with the Android and web client. It's a little jerky, but it doesn't get that Pixel slush.

Just now I played it again, now it works (both reported files). 

I do not get it. Not one setting has been changed, not on the server, not on the shield.
