Wont play some FLAC - Memes - 2025-08-21

Hi there!

I've been trying to debug my Jellyfin stack for threehours now but i cant seem to figure out my problem.

For some flac files I pay i get the error 'A fatal error was encountered in the HLS stream.' after a couple of seconds, the first couple of seconds the track just plays. I've tried downloading different versions of the album in flac (I own the album on vinyl) and different tracks but I get the same error every time. I also tried my fairphone mobile with e/OS and my fedora laptop (i'm using Vivaldi browser, #### american big tech).

Here is the stats of the file:

Autechre - Momtreal.flac

im runnig jellyfin in docker in the following container config:
Code:
version: "3"

  jellyfin:

    restart: unless-stopped

I have my server running over nginx proxy manager via cloudflare and https with DNS only mode.

Ive tried running the files with and without hardware acceleration. Same problem.
The weird thing is, other FLAC files just seem to work. also my Movies and Series just work flawlessly.
I've checked for problems in the paths but they seem to overlap with my docker settings:

Can anyone of you wizards please help me out ?

Thanx!
