LIve TV playback fails

[jordy 284]

For the last few days I have been experiencing Live TV Playback failure for one or two channels on Emby for Android v 3.1.44 on my phone.

H.264 channels appear to play Ok but mpeg2 channels do not.

Opening a live TV stream for and in particular (but not restricted to) channel 10BOLD results in a screen crash - Emby For Android closes the playback screen and displays the desktop but remains in the active apps list.

Server: win10 4.6.0.5beta

Phone: Pixel 5, Android 11

Server log atached

playback starts at 2020-11-13 15:23:33.529

 

EDIT: just for reference - ALL channels play fine on AndroidTV on my 2017 shield

Hi, 3.1.59 has been released to the store. How does that compare?

.59 is all good re playback thanks. But the guide has some alignment issues, this happens when closing playback and returning to the guide in portrait mode.

cheers

What alignment issue?

Seriously?  In that image the channels' names are clipped underneath, and the coloured boxes are overlapping.

While we're at it, on my iPhone SE 2020 (I know, wrong forum...) the dropdown to select the day is almost completely covered:

Inviska MKV Extract.lnk

Can you not see the overlapping colors alongside 10Shake and SBSHD and also at the top the color for Uncle Buck overlaps the line below.

Never seen anything like this before.

Ok I would just turn off the background highlight for now. We need to redo that feature anyway in some other way.

Have you tried scrolling up so that you can reach the top buttons?

It doesn't really bother me as I only rarely use the mobile app to play TV. I was just pointing it out

Scrolling only happens beneath the timeline, and it is the timeline display that is overlapping the selector.  If I pull down when at the top of the list, the selector is exposed, but the display bounces back up when I release it; at least that way I can see what is currently selected.  There is just enough of the selector exposed to be able to use it, though the three-dot menu alongside it is inaccessible.

This also happens the same on an iPhone 6S which has the same size screen, and both phones are running iOS 14.1 (14.2 is currently downloading).
