Direct Play works only when "allow transcoding" Turned Off - thxcloudsfer - 2025-02-26
Hi all,
I'm new to Jellyfin and just set up a home server. Most of the videos I've added to my library were curated as I was careful to avoid the codecs that aren't supported by my client. I'm running Jellyfin on WebOS, which I fully understand has limitations and is worse than an Android set top box, but is known to play all of the codecs on LG's site (and apparently recent developments have made it possible to stream DV with WebOS, though I haven't tested this!). Almost all of my media library is able to direct stream except videos from a single series (I'll call this Video #1). On this series, the videos take longer to start (with the preview thumbnail occupying the screen) until it eventually starts by transcoding. The "reason for transcoding" is listed as "There was an error starting direct playback". This led me to believe that there was something wrong with the container and it actually wasn't supported, but when I uncheck the box " Allow video playback that requires transcoding" in my user settings and restart the app, all of the sudden the video will direct stream! With the box checked, I found another series that had no issues with direct play and had very similar container properties (Video #2). I ran mediainfo on both files, pasted below. The only difference I thought might be an issue was that Video #1 is variable bitrate while #2 is constant, but given the "overall mode" is variable for both, I don't think this is an issue. I also tried disabling auto subtitles per this post in case the forced subs were somehow a problem, but this didn't seem to affect the transcoding issue. In addition, I enabled debug logging, but it hasn't produced much useful output (it just confirms that no transcoding is requested when direct play begins). I'd greatly appreciate any help narrowing down what the issue might be, given that it seems like all audio tracks/subtitles work both with and without transcoding allowed!

RE: Direct Play works only when "allow transcoding" Turned Off - thxcloudsfer - 2025-02-26
I've just come to realize there is a semantic difference between "direct play" and "direct stream"... Seems as though the audio is the culprit here? I'm confused why Jellyfin would try and transcode the whole thing instead of just the audio by default if that is the case.
Edit: thought might be related to https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos/issues/105 but the suggested solutions there didn't work for me.

I'm wondering if it's because the audio you want to play is the second audio track. Some clients, when playing MKVs, will need a remux if you select an audio track other than the first audio track. Which is the usual behavior for browsers. And WebOS is a glorified browser, including our app.
In the "problem" video, the FLAC track you are playing is the second track.
For testing, can you try remuxing the problem video so that the FLAC track is the first track? The command below should remux (no encoding) so that the second audio track becomes the first track, and copies the rest of the streams.
Code:
/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -fflags +genpts+igndts -i "/data/Media/Video#1.mkv" -map_metadata 0 -map_chapters 0 -map 0:v -map 0:a:1 -map 0:a:0 -map 0:a:2 -map 0:s -map 0:t -codec copy -max_muxing_queue_size 2048 -max_interleave_delta 0 -avoid_negative_ts disabled newFile.mkvRE: Direct Play works only when "allow transcoding" Turned Off - thxcloudsfer - 2025-02-27

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I just tested this remux, and it seems like the issue persists. FLAC was defaulted and subtitles were off at the beginning of playback. This issue seems quite sinister... Do you have any insight into the meaning of "Unknown Profile" vs "Anonymous Profile" as reported in the debug logs? The only simple solution I can think of is that there just isn't a profile for this video/audio/subs combination, or is that just for Direct Play?
RE: Direct Play works only when "allow transcoding" Turned Off - thxcloudsfer - 2025-02-27
Well, I've made the horrible mistake of choosing to go down this rabbit hole, but I have new findings that might end up turning this into a pull request (if the root cause can actually be found). I just need a bit of help! I was able to get the WebOS client play my problem videos as a Remux (not even falling back to direct stream!) by forcing direct stream and allow video stream copy to true in the web client. Add the following lines to here to replicate:
Code:
query.EnableDirectStream = true;
query.AllowVideoStreamCopy = true;I don't fully understand the implications of making this request, for example, if a video truly cannot direct stream, how the backend handles choosing the best alternative, or if it just fails.
This is what I've gathered so far:
1. For reasons I don't understand, the direct play fails with a "DirectPlayError" reason. From my research, this only happens when there's a bug in Jellyfin OR the browser advertises a codec in its profile that it doesn't actually support. This triggers the error handler, which has an initial value for EnableDirectStream and AllowVideoStreamCopy. These two are both set to the result of "isRemoteSource && !isAlreadyFallbacking". I'm guessing that at this stage, the result is FALSE, and my logs confirmed that. A change stream call is made.
2. changeStream calls getPlaybackInfo, nothing weird here.
3. In getPlaybackInfo, another way for the EnableDirectStream to be false. Request is kicked off to backend.
4. The POST handler calls SetDeviceSpecificData.
5. This is the section of code that makes me think options.EnableDirectStream is never actually used (and I don't see it used in the generation of the client video URL)...
Code:
if (!options.ForceDirectStream)
{
// direct-stream http streaming is currently broken
options.EnableDirectStream = false;
}6. Another interesting one in the same function. A "mediaSource" directstream boolean is separately set (presumably) to false due to the options variable being false. But...
7. Just a bit later, there's a check to append "allowVideoStreamCopy=false". Normally this would take place, but the earlier forced value allowVideoStreamCopy being TRUE makes this not take place.
8. The client takes in this slightly modified URL (now without the "allowVideoStreamCopy=false" ) and makes a request to get the best video feed. Because copying is now allowed, the best transcode profile is a copy.
9. Finally, a call to TryStreamCopy. Miraculously, CanStreamCopyVideo returns true. And somehow, and this is the part I *really* don't understand, I get a remux that seems to just be two direct streams. WHAT?
Here is the command that was given to remux with ffmpeg:
