Also, RPis, no matter how highly overclocked, cannot handle CPU transcoding and they no longer have hardware encoders for Jellyfin to utilize (starting with the 4?).
For the video that just resulted in a black screen, is that an HDR video? If so, what kind?
4K HEVC file was SDR. It first looks black screen but after 10-15 seconds I see the error message below.
On Android app, while playing a 1080p H264 SDR file, if I choose a value that's lower bitrate than native, i see this message:
"Playback Error
This client isn't compatible with the media and the server isn't sending a compatible media format. "
The phone is Samsung S23 Ultra with Android 14.
On PC client, 1080p H264 and HEVC seems to play just fine. 4K HEVC SDR on the other hand freezes the app.
