Fixed - Playback failed with error "loading failed". - jonm - 2024-03-13
Jellyfin Media Player on a Mac, I just started getting this when trying to watch Live TV:
Playback failed with error "loading failed". Retry with transcode? (Note this may hang the player.)
It was working fine without transcoding up until recently, and I've not knowingly changed anything...
What could be causing this, please?
Server 10.8.3 on Linux, Fedora 39, Tvheadend for live TV.

Answering my own question - the IP for the tvheadend server was 127.0.0.1 and it shouldn't have been... now fixed. Please ignore me
