Issue - Emby fails to resume partially played content

[cgmcfalll 3]

Version - 4.8.10.0 - Host, Ubuntu.

Issue - If content is half played, when I go to resume - It fails to load, and just gets stuck loading (On the main playback page with the content background) - I then go back on the browser or refresh - Then the content seems to lose it's progress and start from the beginning.

Clients - All - Replicated on FireFox, Chromium Based browsers and iOS.

Content - Happens regardless of Direct Play, or Transcoded content.

Logs - embyserver and ffmpeg attached. I get

"Response 200 to host1" 

My reported issue starts at 09:54 on the logs. No changes have been made to my config, and no Server updates have happened -This started happening out of nowhere.

My host has plenty of disk capacity available so it's not to do with running out of space on the SQL etc.

Thanks in advance.

Adding disk space info from host.

Update - 4.9.0.35 Beta seems to have resolved this - but hope the logs above are useful to narrow it down, there's a giant list of changes for 4.9.0.35 so perhaps it's covered under one of them.

Hi, thanks for following up.

[cgmcfalll 3]

Turns out it hasn't resolved with the updated OS
PFA Emby Server and ffmpeg logs attached if they're of any use. The latest example was the playback at 17:50 on the logs.

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Hi ,as a test, how does Chrome compare?

[cgmcfalll 3]

Apologies for the delay - issue replicated in Brave, Chrome, Edge & Firefox to eliminate browser issues. Private tab and cookie/cache clear performed also on each.

Hi, are you still having an issue with this?

[cgmcfalll 3]

Yep - I'm currently suffering from the 4.9.0.37 hanging issue, so going to 4.9.0.38 and will monitor. Please note this has been happening since I was running the production release of 4.8.10.0.

OK we’ll try to chase this down. Thanks.

I've also been having this issue, for as long as I can remember. It only seems to happen with certain files.

I have a copy of The Warriors that it's been happening with. Is there somewhere I can upload it, or debug info I can provide?

Hi, yes can you provide a sample video for testing? That would be great. Thanks.

I think I experienced same or at least similar behaviour, I am interested to see the outcome of this thread.
