Transcoding trailers

[Nem 2]

I have emby set up through a docker on unraid. Playing movies seems OK in chrome browser. I have path substitution set up as follows so I see the Direct option (thus presumably avoiding transcoding):

 

from: /mnt/Movies

to: smb://192.168.187.10/Media/Movies

 

When I check my server CPU usage it doesn't go over 5% when playing a movie, so it seems transcoding is not being used

 

This, however, is not the case when I play local trailers. Each movie directory has a trailer (.mov) downloaded by couchpotato. I set one to play before a movie and during local trailer playback transcoding is being used (no Direct option, and CPU usage shoots up to 90+%)

 

Is this a bug or did I miss a setting somewhere?

I have added a section to our wiki called 

Why Is My Media Transcoding?

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Transcoding

 

Please let me know if this answers your question. I realize the web client section is currently empty and I am working on filling it. If you still think it should be direct playing, please see the section at the bottom titled:

My Files Shouldn't Be Transcoding. How Do I Report This

Here is my server log file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33102508/server.txt

 

and here is my transcode log file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33102508/transcode.txt

 

I can't get the media info as I'm not sure where to find it. This only happens with trailers, and my media library only contains the main movie file (which I see the info for), but nothing for the local trailer .mov file

 

Sometimes, seemingly randomly, I'll play a movie and it transcodes. But when I play the same movie later it plays directly...not sure if thats a related problem or not
