However you are viewing the logs, you need to scroll down. These logs are still incomplete. The part I need is farther down.

it's really weird because i have nothing else in the log file


RE: Playback Error - Client isn't compatible - sasukat - 2024-03-22

except this two lines:

Output #0, hls, to '/config/data/transcodes/8ddc6481d999be4dd0bcbb97cc85cf6c.m3u8':
Output file #0 does not contain any stream

That message is probably from ffmpeg failing before it even starts encoding. Since you are using CPU transcoding, it is either a permissions issue with the output directory or the disk is full or something.

then i think it is a permission issue because i add another media after this one and i have no issues with that one, Is it possible that the problem is with the mkv file itself?

It is definitely possible that the file is corrupt.

Hi!

I had the same problem and changed the player.
Go to Settings - Client Settings - Vdeio player type and choose either Integrated player or External player, both worked for me (I used VLC for the external player).

Cheers,
Tommy
