Jellyfin struggling to play high quality files, crashing after a few minutes.

[Sammeeeeeee]

Hi

I have jellyfin installed in a VM with 24 cores and 32GiB RAM (VM also used for Docker).

Whenever I attempt to play higher quality files, jellyfin crashes after a few minutes. I haven't seen it struggle with lower quality media. 

Here are some logs:
FFmpeg.Transcode-2024-03-24_16-11-43_d48825174d455ae3ff859d8b28582853_ce3f3ebf.log

I cannot for the life of me figure out whats wrong. I've tried disabling plugins, different clients, hard resets etc, but it still crashes.

Can someone enlighten me?? 

Thanks, Sam.

Hm does it only crash on androidtv client? Because the direct stream and transcode logs seem fine.

Or does really the jellyfin server crash?

The jellyfin server service crashes, not the actual server itself. I can access the webui, but all I see is the background and spinning circle untill I restart the service.

It also happens on other clients too. I've tried the jellyfin app and webui too, playing these files also caused crashes

I don't see anything wrong in your logs. Usually if you run out of disk space it would say so in the log. How much space does your OS disk have? Transcodes are written to /var/lib/jellyfin/transcodes.

128Gb virtual hardsisk, approx 30 which is used.

Can you let it crash a few times and then show the last ~300 lines from journalctl?
