Download Videos won't play on Emby Android App


Recommended Posts

I was successfully playing downloaded videos a few weeks ago without issue on the Android Emby app on my Samsung S26 Ultra.

Tonight I wanted to play some videos offline from my downloads and I just get the spinning circle and it jumps back to downloads. Downloaded Audio books and Music play just fine.

So far I've tried:

checking app permissions

Clearing Cache data

changing where downloads are stored

Deleting old downloads and re downloading videos.

If I go to the Emby system folder in android the raw video file will play using VLC so it isn't the video file being corrupted.

 

Is this related to a recent update? Samsung seems to push a new update for this phone every week.

 

Thanks

Hi there, what version number of the app do you have ?

3.5.55

I checked Google pay store and it doesn't give me an option to update.

OK you can temporarily enable logging, try to play again and then provide a log from the app:

Thanks.

Ok,

I enabled logging, I played some downloads that failed to play, I checked logs and it just states "no items found".

 

I tried actually streaming Some videos that did play without issue and I get the same message on the logs screen.
