sross44 228 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Hoping someone can help me out. I'm new to Live TV on Emby.... and it's taking my channels like 20-30 seconds to open when I select a new channel. This is happening on an Apple TV, 4k as well as a Shield Pro. Not sure what's going on as the same setup in Plex takes about 3-4 seconds to load. I've attached logs reference if that helps at all. I just tried opening different channels. embyserver.txtffmpeg-directstream-e371b548-669c-41e9-854e-ea48d165c5f9_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37006 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Hi, please try configuring the apple tv app to use the mpv player and see if that helps. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did help a little but doesn't the MPV player limit some of the playback of 4k content I have in my movie folder? Also, what is the solution then for the Shield Pro.

sross44 228 Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Sounds good. I did that. That definitely helped. The only issue I'm running in to now is on every platform I'm watching on, it pauses maybe ever 10-15 seconds for a split second and then resumes right where it stopped. Processor is more than strong enough to handle it anything I throw at it for live TV, internal network is definitely strong enough. What could be the bottle neck there? Any suggestions? Thank you to everyone for all your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sross44 228 Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 Turned off MPV on Apple TV and it goes away. So I guess I deal with either long load times or choppy tv experience on some channels. If I’m correct an upcoming Apple TV beta has a better MPV player. How do I get that beta to download on the Apple TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
