Live TV: No compatible streams are currently available...

[Erdrick 3]

I have this same issue on a Samsung tv, model QN75Q70AAFXZA. All channels work fine in m3u iptv app. In Emby, sometimes channels work, other times they end up erroring out saying no compatible stream.

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

Well, trying it now, everything seems to play now but it is still acting weird. What I play a channel/stream, there is a long pause with a blue circle spinning, at least 15 seconds. Then a static image of that video shows. The blue circle continues to spin. Another 15 seconds later, the video finally starts, but it only plays 20-30 secs of video and then pauses to buffer again. It keeps doing that over and over.

On that same TV, on an M3U IPTV app, all the channel start streaming instantly, and never buffer, connecting straight to the IPTV source.

Just to add, my Emby server runs on a Synology NAS. The TV is wired to a gigabit switch. Both are on the same network.

HI, can you try it again? Are you still running into this?

[Erdrick 3]

Sorry for the delay. Yes, I am still having this exact same issue. The IPTV service streams fine to the other IPTV software on the Samsung TV, but in Emby it buffers every 20-30 seconds. On my Samsung phone, it streams flawlessly in the Emby software.

I have updated to the latest version 4.8.8.0.

@Erdrickit looks like your server just can't transcode quickly enough to burn in the subtitles.

If you go into your emby user settings and set the subtitle mode to No Subtitles, how do things compare?

Yeah. I turned it off and it seems to be working with no issues. I will monitor it. Thanks Luke!
