gbone8106 25 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 (edited) Just got a AU8000, I understand for the 2021 TVs Emby is not yet approved by Samsung. I have installed via USB ,1.0.98. Not sure if it helps with development, but the app speed seems to start slow, and has occasional slow browsing. Playback for 1080p is perfect, but anything 4k is choppy and not really watchable.

Luke 36997 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Hi there, can you please go over an example? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbone8106 25 Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 It seems to only occur on 4k(hevc) hdr mkv content when audio codec is ac3 or eac3, when switched to truehd and dts it plays smooth as it should. Ac3 and eac3 also playback correctly on 1080p mkv content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5041 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 That's odd, because ac3 and eac3 should direct play while TrueHD and dts will have to be converted in any resolution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbone8106 25 Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 Ok yes I will get play back logs, they do all direct play, at least that's what the stats for needs says; ac3 is just choppy with 4k, which is definitely odd. Typically choose ac3 to ensure that it doesn't transcode but this is different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamES 889 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Definitely strange. You could try uninstalling the app, power cycle the TV, then reinstall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbone8106 25 Posted July 2, 2021 Author Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) oh yes, I wanted to try other versions, but the only one that install is 1.0.98, the others give error which looks related to the Tizen version Edited July 2, 2021 by gbone8106 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need to find a rather old version to find one which doesn't expire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbone8106 25 Posted July 2, 2021 Author Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) ok yea that makes sense, so the only one to try is is 1.0.98 Edited July 2, 2021 by gbone8106 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 1.0.97 was actually just released in the store for 2021 models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbone8106 25 Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Ok , let me try that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbone8106 25 Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Ok , So have tried 1.0.97, with the same results. I also have copied the same file (4k HDR10,EAC3, Mkv) to a usb and it played perfect and smooth. I also want to mention I have an HU8550 with oneconnect box wired ethernet , plays this just fine, also the previous tv, TU8000 (2020) also wired, played it just fine also. Its only present in 4k HDR10 EAC3/AC3 Direct play, anytime a 4K HDR10 MKV with TrueHD or DTS is direct streamed(audio transcode), its also plays smooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Yea I didn't expect it to be any different, I just wanted to mention that it was indeed available now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamES 889 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I can't find any information in the developer notes to suggest why x265/4K content should have issues with playback in 2021 models. There isn't anything in the API documentation. There is a 'SET_MODE_4K' mode which we set that is deprecated since 2020, but I expect that setting it has no effect so it shouldn't be causing an issue. Does all 4K content that is DirectPlay cause issues, or only some items? Can you please attach the media info for an example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5041 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Have you tried changing your TV's setting digital output audio format from Auto to DD+/DD when playing these formats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbone8106 25 Posted July 6, 2021 Author Share Posted July 6, 2021 Only options are pcm, auto, and passthrough. Have tried all 3, same results. Also tried without hdmi arc sound bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
