IOS emby play ac3 audio track error

[RTVstyle 1]

Hi
IOS 2.2.5 has an error in the support of ac3 audio track. As long as a movie with ac3 audio track is played, it will prompt: "Playback error: no compatible stream".

The same video can be played normally on the emby client of Macos and TV OS.

No error will be prompted for other formats of audio tracks, DTS and Truehd audio tracks that were not supported before are supported.

Please check to see if this is really the case.

Yes. Me too. AC3 audio track is very popular. Please fix this error soon.

[Luke 42077]

Can we please look at an example? It seems to be working just fine in my testing.

Audio: AC3 direct play but container MKV not direct play and server converted to HLS to play.

我们可以看一个例子吗？在我的测试中，它似乎工作得很好。

 

thanks for the reply!

To be more specific, Emby for IOS 2.2.5, when playing MKV-packaged video, as long as the ac3 audio track is used, it will prompt a playback error, and the same video can be played normally by replacing the audio track of other formats.

Playing with non-IOS devices will play normally.

So, this problem doesn't seem to be related to the server, it's a pure IOS 2.2.5 version problem.
