MP3 and FLAC files won't play - Frigate - 2025-01-29
Hi Everyone,
I recently updated Jellyfin to version 10.10.5.
Now I am unable to play any audio only files (in this case MP3 and FLAC). Whenever I click on a folder or album in the library, I just get a spinning blue circle and nothing else.
Video files work fine, I have video and audio.
Have searched the web but didn'y find anything that would help.
I have tried checking the two 'Remux' boxes in advanced audio but that didn't help either.
Anyone have any ideas? Please note that I am just an average user so I probably won't underestand a lot of technical jargon

Please post your latest server logs which is located in Dashboard -> Logs. Which client are you having issues with— the web UI (browser), Jellyfin Media Player, or another client? Does this issue happen across all clients?

I hope this is what you need
It sems to be just a Jellyfin issue.
Thanks for your help

Does this log include a playback attempt? The database error at the bottom is concerning.
I don't see any plugins installed that have their own DB, so the DB error must belong to Jellyfin's DB.
Did your disk fill up recently? Or did your PC crash hard?

There isn't enough information from the logs to figure out what's going wrong. Please try playing a file and then share the logs after attempting playback. Also, since you're on Windows, make sure the H:\ drive is still listed as H:\ in Windows Explorer—sometimes Windows will reassign drive letters.
