DirectStream Crashing but only with Movies- - jadecase - 2025-06-13
Hi all, have a major issue that has just cropped up, thank you in advance for the help. I am experiencing server crashing every time i try to play a movie. shows and other videos are completely unaffected. in looking at the logs the issue seems to be with audio transcoding but wondering if the folks here might see something else as I'm no expert. Video transcoding is enabled and works fine on TV Shows and other videos as well. At my wits end here, thank you all for the help.
