Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 (edited) Hello, There's a lot of information about this topic but I still can't find something that would help me. All of this is new to me so please bare with me here. I have Emby installed on my Gaming PC (Ryzen 2700X, RTX 2080, 48 GB RAM) and have couple of anime that I want to play on my Android TV (Philips 50PUS7303). Sadly every single episode is so unwatchable on a TV. I understand that this format is heavy on CPU and Android TVs cannot handle that but from what I understand point of Emby Server is to use it's resource to transcode (?) and make it watchable. I tried toying with the settings but with no success. I'd be very grateful for help. I attached the logs, if you require anything else just let me know. Thank you. hardware_detection-63759691716.txtembyserver-63759691764.txt mediainfo.txt Edited June 19, 2021 by Kyononono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodainas 188 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Did you enable transcoding for the user? settings, server, users, you user, media playback, allow video playback that requires transcoding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Sorry, I should've been more specific. I can hear the audio and see subtitles just fine but the screen is either black or freezes on 1 frame and refreshes every 1-2 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 The log you posted does not appear to be from playback. Are you sure it is the right one? Were any ffmpeg logs created? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 (edited) Cannot find any ffmpeg logs on the Server. Not sure if it helps but I did send logs from my Android TV (using the in app option) about 5 minutes ago. My AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\logs folder: Thank you.

GrimReaper 3330 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Have you tried selecting "Playback correction" in the OSD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Hi, I just tried it but it didn't have any effect on the video. However it did create a ffmpeg log. ffmpeg-remux-fe3a8853-a8db-4490-b583-daa4031d5634_1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3330 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Try lowering quality below that media bitrate, 3-4 Mbps or lower, and see does it make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Tried lowering Quality to 1-4 Mbps but everytime I got a popup "Too many errors. Giving up". It created a lot of ffmpeg logs, I zipped all of them. logs1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3330 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Do you have Emby Premiere subscription (which would enable HW accelleration)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 I installed emby few days ago and I was under the impression that it offered a free trial. A message that a trial will expire keeps popping on my Android TV when I start playback. Is HW acceleration still blocked even if I'm on trial?

I don't think server has a trial, only certain client apps (like Android TV app) do, which is unrelated to server-side Premiere subscription benefits, but I beleive @ebr will give you more insight on that. https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44001173099-emby-premiere-feature-matrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyononono 0 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 (edited) I purchased Premiere subscription just now and tested things again but sadly no change. I don't get an error while using Playback correction now but sadly it does not help. Edited June 19, 2021 by Kyononono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReaper 3330 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Did you insert your Premiere key in Dashboard>Emby Premiere tab? Is it active already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
