Playback Error - d3sperato - 2025-10-21

I am using a HDHomerun connected to my Synology DS1522+ for live tv and recordings. I'm on Jellyfin 10.10.7

I went through each channel in my guide and all of them work except ABC. I wouldn't care that much but that is really the only channel we use because my wife likes the shows on there.
I get the "Playback failed due to a fatal player error". I downloaded the HDHomerun app on my phone to check, and ABC along with all of the other channels work on there.

I have looked at all of the other posts on this form regarding my same error, but nothing has worked so far.

Here is my ffmpeg log (I think):

Also, I added image of my log page in Jellyfin dashboard below because when the channel fails there are a bunch of ffmpeg options to choose from. Wasn't sure if I put the right on in pastebin, or if this info might help. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm an idiot. Fixed by restarting Jellyfin. This has been a small annoyance going on for at least 2 months, but wasn't a big enough deal to really dive into. I didn't know there was a restart button.
