SOLVED: Playback Error: Fatal Player Error

[i3laine]

Hello,

I'm new to jellyfin as well as the entire media server scene. This is my first attempt at setting one up. I've had my server running for several days and had no issues whatsoever; until I added several titles recently and started getting this message when attempting to play some of them.



I have searched and I found this post, which may be related:

https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-psa-nvidia-...hlight=psa

I don't understand anything beyond the OP saying that they had to roll back their driver. I also don't know if that still applies because a new version of jellyfin and a new nvidia driver have both been released.

These are video details from one of the files that won't play:



For my setup, I've got the following:

MSI Mag Torpedo EK X
Intel 13700K, stock, no OC
OS SSD- Hynix P41 2tb
Storage Drive- Toshiba MG08ACA16TE 16tb 7200RPM 512e
32GB G.skill Trident Z 7200mt/s DDR5 RAM
Gigabyte RTX 4090 AERO OC
Windows 11 Pro 23H2 Build 22631.3737
Jellyfin 10.9.6 via the .exe download

Unlike when a video plays successfully, when the video fails to load, it doesn't create a log.

Here's a screen shot of all my playback settings:





Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you,
Blaine
