Problems with loading some media files - error 234 - Diesel_101 - 2025-06-04
So some of the media on my jellyfin instance are not working. An example would be in the logs on pastebin.
log: https://pastebin.com/wVkMv991
ffmpeg transcode log: https://pastebin.com/5e1gF6t5
My setup is: proxmox instance, Jellyfin running on an ubuntu server VM, media folder is accesible through a "network" share, but it is located on the machine as well.
Intel-10500, 256gb boot ssd, 2x8tb drives, 1gbit connection.
I do not think it is an issue with being able to reach the media, as it can play media from other subfolders in the "movie" folder. I can navigate to these and play them using windows media player.
But I am open to try anything you guys can come up with. I am very new to this selfhosted aspect of media consumption, so I am sorry if I sound dumb.
from the logs I see an error 234, which is related to transcoding I think? Would that mean the media might be corrupt after all? What is the best way to test if the media is corrupt?
Thank you guys in advance.

Is the file being accessed by another program?
