Trickplay | Not working for some files - Comply7199 - 2025-06-23

I'm running the latest version of Jellyfin on a Windows 2019 server. 

The server is a VM hosted on Proxmox. 

I have an Arc a310 GPU and transcoding is working well. 

I enabled trickplay for all my video libraries and the directories now contain the trickplay subdirectories. 

My client is a Roku stick. 

Trickplay is working well for some files - e.g. mp4. 

I've noticed that it isn't working for some .mkv files. 

I checked the server dashboard and it stated that the video is direct stream copy and the audio is being transcoded. 

Is this a known issue? 

Video codec = HVEC 1080P.

Can you give the full media info for the files, and if there are any log errors?
