troyhough 57 Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 @ebr@cayars I got the following info/screenshots above from VLC on my LAN. Do you see any reason why the 2 channels, CW and Fox, will only Transcode with my Pixel 4 XL and Chromebooks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 No, we need to know why the client won't direct play those two channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generiq 113 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Forgive me if this has been asked, but if you record one that transcodes, and then play the recording, do you have the same result? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14925 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Quote Android Logs The app writes log files to the system defined data folder for the app. Generally this is: /Android/data/com.mb.android/files/logs You may need to download and install a file manager to be able to access the files. ES File Explorer is a popular choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
