Started having problems watching my PVR and saved videos on Roku

[AmericanMike 18]

This just started this week.  Can't watch downloaded videos or PVR videos on Roku today.   No issues watching them through Emby on Chrome Browser.

Hi, what exactly happens?

[speechles 2062]

Stream #0:1[0x101]: Audio: aac (HE-AAC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 96 kb/s, Start-Time 1.400s

It's that Audio issue I need help with @LukeLook at the Roku issue tracker for #1756 and need some help there from you. Thanks.

It is the AAC "Main" codec using an ADTS stream.

Maybe it is Ffmpeg/Ffprobe that needs help understanding how to read it correctly and stop reporting it incorrectly as HE-AAC?

Maybe a fluke, maybe related but restarting the Emby server app did not help but a complete restart of my physical server seems to have cleared the issue for recording completed after the restart.  The recordings made before the restart still did not work.

@LukeWhat I saw was the "No compatible Streams Available" message on Roku but did play fine on the PC through the web app.

Thanks guys.

Perhaps your transcoding temp location was full...?

I thought the same but it was not.  

The issue is now back overnight.  Very strange.
