After installing a new GPU, direct play is broken on Web App.

Basically as the title says. after installing a new GPU to improve trans-coding, the web app wont work properly with direct play on both video AND audio. it will work if you start an episode or movie from the beginning, however it takes like 30 seconds to load, and if you scrub at all, the video freezes, but audio continues, And resuming a video gives you a black screen and audio, you HAVE to watch from the beginning. If either video or audio trans-codes, doesn't matter witch, then it just works perfectly fine, but if its ALL direct play, wont work properly.

Lets look at Star trek Strange new worlds, that show is full direct play, and is having issues, a show like the original star trek worked fine, because it could trans-code.

To me that sounds more like browser (GPU drivers) problem than Emby problem. Which browser you're using for playback?

Which is notoriously weak (they've just added HEVC support recently, like a millenia after competition did) for media consumption compared to some other browsers . Try MS Edge or Thorium.
