Remote playing large playlists make the clients hang

[ryancey 55]

I never managed to remote play playlists from Emby web app to an Android TV with the sideloaded (regular) app. The client just display the loader forever and do nothing. I'm talking about both ~15 tracks albums or ~1k playlists. When tried with my Android phone as target, it works but after a solid 2-3 minutes.

Playing a single track works but takes about 5 seconds. Stopping it is almost instant.

The web app, the phone app, and the TV app all connect to a local network Emby server, with the same host name.

The server is 4.8.0.80 and runs on docker.

Nothing unusual in the logs as far as I can tell. Here are the logs when shuffling favorite songs from the web app, remote controlling the Android app on the TV:

How to further debug this issue? The request doesn't seem abnormally long, so what is the TV app trying to fetch that take so long?

Hi, so which client hangs, the one controlling, or the one playing?

[ryancey 55]

The one playing.

[Luke 42077]

OK we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

[ryancey 55]

Any news about this?

It looks like when starting a large playlist, the client sends ALL the individual track IDs of the playlist to the server which then relay them to the targeted player, instead of just the ID of the playlist + options (shuffle, order, whatever).

It takes forever on "shuffle favorites" (1000s of tracks) to the point I need to reboot the freezed client app and cannot remote play anything for a few minutes again.

Seems like the freeze delay is linear with the playlist size.

The remote control for music is pretty much unusable this way, and it doesn't seem like it's getting fixed

Similar issue? https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/131166-shuffling-a-large-playlist-wont-select-songs-later-in-the-playlist/&do=findComment&comment=1377420

@ryancey

Hi.  Can you try searching for our standard android app (Just "Emby" on Amazon and "Emby for Android on Google) on the same device's app store and see how that compares?

Thanks.

The TV client is already the sideloaded Android app, and the remote order is given by the web app from a computer

The bug still exists as of today

HI, what version number of the app did you try?

[ryancey 55]

The TV app is 3.4.36

The server runs 4.8.10.0

[Luke 42077]

OK we’ll take a look at it. Thanks.

[ryancey 55]

This has been fixed when upgrading from 4.8.11.0 to 4.9.1.1-beta. Thanks

[ryancey 55]

I'm reopening this since I'm again facing the issue
