anujpuri85 1 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Since the recent Emby update for Roku, none of my AVI files play. They'll begin playing, and then a minute into the file, it'll start buffering, then continue playing again, and will start buffering again, until it then gives a playback error. This is only with AVI file types. Everything else seems to work fine. Looking on my Emby server dashboard, it shows the files as transcoding, and has buffered plenty, so it shouldn't be a buffering/internet issue (plus this is inside my home network and outside on another roku, and on both Roku tvs and Roku ultra). Any thoughts? I've attached the server log file and the ffmpeg log file from Emby. embyserver.txt ffmpeg-transcode-1f754d01-240b-47bd-9462-fbd453ff6675_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37099 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Hi, as a test, if you turn off hardware transcoding under server transcoding settings, does that make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anujpuri85 1 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) @Luke I went to the Transcoding tab and set "Enable hardware acceleration when available:" to No. Is this what you mean? Setting this to No had no effect. Edited July 12, 2020 by anujpuri85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Happy2Play 8296 Posted July 12, 2020 Solution Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) Will have to look for the other topic but if you disable Transcode Throttling is should resolve your issue as the Roku firmware update has created a issue here, if it is the same issue. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/87119-roku-93-loadingtranscode Edited July 12, 2020 by Happy2Play added link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anujpuri85 1 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 @Happy2Play Oh this is perfect, it seems to be working now. Thank you both so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14925 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Hi. Was the reason you only saw this with AVI files because those are the only ones that needed to be transcoded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anujpuri85 1 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 @ebr I honestly don't know why AVI was the only file type that wasn't playing, as other extensions (MPG, MP4, MKV) all played fine and they were transcoding as well (or at least the dashboard showed them as transcoding).
