Playback failed due to a fatal player error - hsnow93 - 2025-04-25

Hi there, 

Very new to this so I'm sorry if the description isn't super clear.  I set up my jellyfin content and connected it to MyNAS where I have all my files.  It was able to import everything from the media library there, but when I try to play any of my videos, whether it's on the home or remote server, I get that error message "Playback failed due to a fatal player error."  Is there a simple fix to this?  

Thanks a lot!
