EMBY MUSIC: Playback Error

[nusuzst 31]

Hi, 

Probably Luke will pick up this topic - as usually

For some unknown reason, I have quite a few "broken" tracks... What I usually do is save the name of the broken track and re-download it. For now, there is no way to spot a file that is not working. 

Is there any way that Emby can flag broken tracks? A small icon e.g. (!)  after field play would do.

Please, Please

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hi Luke,

 

i dont have problem with playing files. But some of my files are damaged for some reason - none of the players can play these tracks, to clarify. 

 

I have broken maybe 1% of files so it's not so that bad, but from time to time player stops playing because of that. 

 

Post is to add feature  “auto skip damaged files and flag it” 

I hope now it's more clear

 

Cheers

OK i agree in principle with the idea it's just that it's not so simple detect a damaged file vs other kinds of playback errors.

When ->  "playback error" message appears -> mark the file on the playlist? 

I'm not sure how this is going with "other kind of playback errors" because I never had them. 

Fingers crossed you will find a solution

Cheers

Right the problem is that a playback error on one device may not occur on another.

I hope you will figure out something  this would be very helpful for me and many other Emby users. I think it's a good step forward to make Emby ultimate app
