Movies suddenly not playing using Chrome


Recommended Posts

I will start with changes made over the past few days just in case any of it can play a part.  I first tried to get remote access working.  Locally I use port 80 and remote was set to 8096.  I had this open on my firewall.  It wasn't working.  In the process of working on this I somehow couldn't access emby anymore, even locally.  So I opened the system.xml file and changed all port settings I could find to 80.  Eventually I got back in.  I changed my firewall rule from port 8096 to 80 and then was able to access remotely.  I did a few tests playing a TV show and a movie.  It seemed to be fine.

 

Last night I watched part of a movie and left it paused over night.  Today I went to finish it and watched a little and it seemed audio sync was a little off.  So I stopped it and restarted my HTPC.  Emby then updated to the latest stable release.  I have restarted several times and my movie would not resume.  It will switch to the play screen and then just sit there.  My HTPC actually froze and I had to do a hard reset.  I tried again and no luck.  I tried playing it from the beginning and same result.  I then tried a few other movies and they all do the same thing, just go to the start but never play.  I tried a short TV show and it seemed to start like normal.  If I use an external player MPC it plays fine.  

 

I just restarted again and tried a movie across my local network.  It finally started playing after 30 secs, maybe a minute.  

 

I went to my local HTPC which is the way I mainly watch movies and still no luck.  I use Chrome.  I tried IE and it seems ok, started playing in a couple seconds.  I went into chrome and deleted all my cookies, history, etc.  No luck.

 

So it seems to be only movies and using Chrome both locally and networked.  I tried IE and FF from another PC on my network and movies seem to start fine in a second or two.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

Hi, welcome. For media playback issues please see how to report a problem. Thanks.

 

Looks like it might have worked itself out.  If not, next time I will attach logs.

 

Thanks
