Methodman104 7 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) I cant stream on my Firestick today, it either attempts to play (the first frame shows up and freezes but the audio continues), or I get a black screen with the spinning wheel (more common than the frozen first frame screen of the video). This happens both with livetv and streaming files. When I tested this on my Android phone it plays fine....here is my log file, hopefully this helps. Thanks. hardware_detection-63757033092.txt ffmpeg-transcode-36b636d7-c770-4b9a-83c5-3302653a0b84_1.txt ffmpeg-directstream-9c38a4c3-60c0-47a1-be26-7ebde0eacbf3_1.txt Edited May 19, 2021 by Methodman104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just loads up my current version. I also included latest log file. ffmpeg-directstream-2a2f715d-c993-495f-9e9b-1a9c066cf85b_1.txt Edited May 21, 2021 by Methodman104 added log file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to download the latest beta and install the zip file on a usb to Firestick (hopefully it will install, this is new to me still) and see if it works or runs.

Methodman104 7 Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 Will need to use OTG cable adapter for firestick to read the files on my portable usb drive, just ordered one from amazon and will wait until it arrives to get the beta file and install it on my firestick to run the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methodman104 7 Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 (edited) I still CANT stream...here is my log file. I also can't seem to connect to my server remotely anymore either. Here is latest log file about streaming on my firestick.. ffmpeg-directstream-a65202cd-6d97-4f98-ac49-538f730ca04a_1.txt Edited June 4, 2021 by Methodman104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 What, exactly, happened in that session? It looks like it is playing, however, not fast enough so I would expect that you may get stuttering or pauses on the app end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it is playing, however, not fast enough so I would expect that you may get stuttering or pauses on the app end. The video froze but the audio played. I'm using an app that creates a live tv channel from my hard drive, so I am assuming this could be the issue? I mentioned that because recently I added plutoTV m3u and xml files to my Emby Server and that plays (but have issues during commercials, which I then have to exit the channel and restart the channel again).

Carlo 4331 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Hi, pluto is known to have issues when transitioning to and from commercials that cause issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmotherobot 6 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I'm still having the same issue as the OP. Gen2 Firestick. If I play anything with EAC audio the picture freezes and audio continues playing. Playback correction gets the 'too many errors' message. I've submitted the log from within the app. This happens on current production client and also 2025a beta client. If I change playback to downmix to stereo, the video plays fine (albeit, in stereo). For now I've loaded the old 1.89 client which plays the video and audio fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping our internal renderer would take over but it doesn't so I'll have to put back the server conversion in that case for now. Please try again with the next beta.

Does this in some way affect the test we were doing on the other topic?
