System.Exception: No video encoder found for 'vp8'

[muhfugen 5]

I have a new Emby install as of this morning on Windows Server 2022 Core with a Quadro P400 GPU. When trying to play a H264 video file on Chrome on Win 10 Enterprise 21H2, through Emby both with and without hardware transcoding I get the following error. Any ideas what is wrong?

Was there a ffmpeg log?

But you need to correct your library permissions issue.

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '\\xx.xxxxxxx.xxx\Videos' is denied.

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '\\xx.xxxxxxx.xxx\Videos\Movies' is denied.

Looks like this media is failing to be probed with code below but permissions could be a factor also.

But devs will have to comment on "exited with code -1073741515" and topic issue.

Yes the permissions problem is probably the source of the issue here. If you can resolve that then that should resolve all of these issues I would think.

Those permissions issues are old log entries and are near the start of the log. If Emby didnt have permission to read the directories, it couldnt have enumerated the directories and provided me with movies to even try toplay. I was going to stop the service, delete the old logs and try again to make them a bit easier to read through, but now it decided to start working.

Are you all set now?
