I can't move forward or backward on emby

[Leonvrdx 0]

Hello! Through the computer, accessing my emby IP I can move forward, backward, skip part of what I'm watching normally, but through the Android TV and normal Android apps I can't. It turns out that in Android apps, or outside my PC browser, whenever I try to touch the content minutes, Emby returns to where it was originally playing, so I can't go back a few seconds or move forward. Can anyone help me?

The translator ended up duplicating all my text, I'm avoiding being redundant

Leo,

I would guess that your original media is in the process of being transcoded and this limits forward and return options.  Try using an online test video with a more basic video and audio codec, like 1080P h.264 .mp4 and AAC audio.  If that works, then you can assume the media content transcoding has perhaps reached a limit for your server.  I don't do transcoding.  Everything in my media library is more basic video and audio that always plays on everything.  You can capture a log file and submit it here, so everyone can see if this transcoding limitation is true, but it is sort of easier to test a 2 minute video to see what might be happening.

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

The function of forwarding and rewinding content on Emby Android/Android TV requires a Premiere subscription, I became a subscriber here and now everything is fine. It's a shame this isn't better highlighted in the Premiere tab of the website, I spent a few days trying to find a solution hehe

Hi.  Seeking is not a Premiere feature so something else has changed to clear this up for you.
