Dani_ 1 Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 The Emby Server ignores Transcoding request from Kodi (Emby Addon) it only make DirectPlay and my Device are not able to handle high bitrate. 2017-11-05 03:14:13.574 Info HttpServer: HTTP GET http://MyIP:8096/emby/Videos/2a4cb1345b91ae4c17ec0755a378a2f4/hls1/main/0.ts?MediaSourceId=2a4cb1345b91ae4c17ec0755a378a2f4&VideoCodec=h264&AudioCodec=ac3&MaxAudioChannels=6&deviceId=7D97538F8EBA44D3A066B02668D790EF&VideoBitrate=3920000&maxWidth=1280&MaxVideoBitDepth=8.

Luke 42077 Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 that looks like a transcoding url so it should be transcoding just fine.
Dani_ 1 Posted November 5, 2017 Author Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Tested with v2.3.56 too from Emby.Media, didnt transcode too or show playlist not found. (SideInfo: the v2.3.56 for Kodi crash on SteamLink at the first Scan.) Edit: Transcoding works on v2.3.56 when your outside of your the home network I try too get this works now on SteamLink Edited November 5, 2017 by Dani_

Dani_ 1 Posted November 5, 2017 Author Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) k, was confused why Emby says Direkt Play ... Edited November 5, 2017 by Dani_
Luke 42077 Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 Does Emby Say "Direct Play" on the sever dashboard for the Kodi client when it is transcoding? There are some small api requirements that i will need to document for you to get those things hooked up, thanks.
Luke 42077 Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 @, I updated the wiki. See PlaySessionId in these two articles: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Video-Streaming https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Playback-Check-ins You are not using the MediaSource api so you will just generate a random value. Thanks.
Luke 42077 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Correct, except make sure all the playback checkins have it, including progress and stop. thanks.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Not if you want to eventually support multi versions, at least from what I recall. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Luke 42077 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 It's better to generate a random string. Video players will often send repeat requests and playsessionid helps differentiate between those and a brand new stream.
