Playing videos freeze and/or stop


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

We have Kodi in the bedroom and my wife and I always queue up a bunch of videos to play overnight while we sleep.  Ever since I set up Emby for Kodi, many mornings I wake up and the video is either froze or it stopped at some point during the night and it's just sitting back at the Kodi playlist screen.  I've bee trying to figure out what's going on but it's hard because I don't know what time the playing videos starts to have problems.  I'm hoping someone can tell by looking at my logs.

 

Here is my serve log.  It was too big to attach: https://1drv.ms/t/s!AjVnhushK5Vl4RECQdN5JFaiRstU

 

EDIT:  I should mentions this only happens when videos have been playing for hours.  I've watched up to three movies or 4-5 TV Shows in a row and have never seen it do this.  It's only ever done over night.  I'm not sure if this is on the plugin or the server.  I figure since it's happening in Kodi I'd ask here first.

Once you have direct play setup, let me know if this still happens. Could be something server side as the server is providing the files via HTTP.

Will do.  That's exactly why I've been trying to get direct play (or whatever it's called) working in the plugin.

Direct play refers to the fact the file is played without modification (regardless of the source).

 

Right now, there's both Direct play (via Network), and Direct play (via HTTP). Still waiting on Luke to add proper terms to the server dashboard as right now, users have no way of knowing which is being used.
