Well, never mind that isn't going to work as the Roku does not support TS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Roku Ultras and they play TS. Ant-Man and Wasp was recorded with a Hauppauge Colossus 2. The default recording format is TS. The Magnum episode was recorded from a HDHomerun 1080i broadcast channel. With both of these examples, I had "Allow video playback that requires transcoding." unchecked.

ebr 14939 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 As you can see, the container is not supported in both cases. In the second case it is remuxing to HLS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not going to get direct play because the Roku does NOT support the TS container. We can allow these to direct stream (remux) however.

What I was referring to is Emby transcoding the video in order to deinterlace when the device has the ability to handle the deinterlacing if needed. You could call this a bug as it shouldn't happen but it's a matter of adjusting the functionality for your Roku Device so it won't do this. I'd actually love to see an option that is user driven just like on Android. This way the system could assume interlaced content is handled by the client. If it isn't the user can turn on the option and have the server transcode and deinterlace it. Almost all devices sold these days handle interlaced content fine which we couldn't say a year or two ago. Just to clarify using an example from earlier. This is a Direct Stream. Both the Video and Audio are used "direct" but the stream itself is not sent to the client in the original format which was mpegts (.ts extension) since that format is not usable on Roku. It was instead streamed using the HLS protocol. So it's a lightweight process as the audio and video and just copied into the new packets being written as needed by the client. You can see the stream was processing at 419 frames per second. Edited February 9, 2022 by cayars 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nat Hill remote 8 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) martincom and troyhough, You have the magic touch! I raised the exact same issue a year ago, but you got it fixed in just a few days! Good for you, and good for Emby. I will be more likely to record these 1080i stations on Emby using Silicon Dust instead of Comcast cable card. THANKS Emby support folks.
