Video won't play on Android, spamming log files in log folder

[Inrego 76]

A video won't play on my android phone. When I went to the logs folder to get the logs ready for this post, I also noticed it had created lots of transcode logs. Just a few minutes ago, I signed up for the Android app beta, not sure if it has been updated on my phone yet or not.

 

I attached all the logs generated while trying to play this video.

try changing your user preferences to no subtitles by default. it could just be related to sub/idx

That indeed was it. According to this page: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Android%20Mobile

Android should support .sub? Or am I missing something?

libvlc is what we use for playback, and yes it supports it, but we haven't added the ability for it to download your external sub/idx files. So currently it will rely on server transcoding unless they're embedded.
