Pluto TV on Synology

[skoog 1]

Is there anyone that got it working to 100% on synology.

I have a 1815+

 

I get all channels and can look at them , but when the comercial comes on the stream just stop.

If i restart the same stream again it works untill the next comercial comes up (about 30 sec later) and it stops again.

(same thing happend when i run emby on a computer)

If i use chrome and a iptv plugin it works 100% all the time.

When i search the forum it seems to be a well known problem.

All have the same problem , and a fix for it is done.

How about adding that to emby.

If not i see no reason to keep paying for it.

Hi there @skoog what is a well known problem?

The "well known problem" is that Pluto tv dont work on emby.

Many have the same problem , and in one thread (found via google) a member tells about a fix for it.

I will try to find that thread again. (its on this forum)

Can you provide the information that I requested earlier? That's the best way to find out what the problem is.

I'm use a synology DS 1815+

Synology wont let you access the folders that the logs are in. (so maybe change where the logs are keept)

I use chrome to look at Pluto Tv.

When the comercial comes on 1 sec later the stream just stops.

If you restart it i will play that comercial , and when the next one comes it stops again.

 

In this topic there is a fix for it.

Hi, you don't need to access the folders directly. Instructions are in the link that I gave you. Did you read it?

Here are the logs.

As a test, if you lower the in-app quality setting to force a full transcode, does that help? Also, can you update to Emby Server 4.5.2?

[skoog 1]

Lower the quality dident help , still the same.

The app is set to auto update. (dont know when it will update)

Did it do a full transcode?

Try following the instructions on our website to install the latest version.

Sorry for late answer.

Updated emby to 4.5.2.0 but its still the same problem.

I give up on this.

No need for premium anymore.

Hi, we're happy to help. Can we look at a new log example? Thanks.

The issue is related to how Pluto Streams the data, It streams on the particular URL in Blocks, 
So first it will send a Block of "lets say" 5 minutes with what you want to watch, and then MidStream it will change to a Different Block sending. 
the commercials, VLC can handle this easily, how ever you will see that the Channel name gets overwritten to "Service" instead of the  Name of the Stream 
that you happen to be watching. 

As Emby is not expecting this behaviour and is expecting  the stream to remain a constant. 
It will stop as soon as the Block Ends
