Can't play old avi videos

[MBSki 1114]

I'm getting a "too many errors giving up" message when trying to play old avi videos. I've tried on Android TV, the web app, and Android Mobile and only the Android Mobile app is able to play them.

What happened in the web app? Can you provide a log example from that? Thanks.

[MBSki 1114]

Sure. Just tried it again in the Web app. Here are the logs. After i pressed Play the video was stuck at 0 with a blank screen.

If you turn off hardware transcoding, how does that compare?

That works. Interesting. Why wouldn't it work with hardware transcoding on?

Yes, just sent you a PM. The file is only 5 MB.

Thanks a lot for the test file.

 

We were able to fix this issue. The fix should be included in the next update.
