SOLVED: Most compatible container and format

[TheDreadPirate]

Two things.

What is the point of this line?

Code:

- /XXXX/XXXX/jellyfin/config/web-config.json:/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/config.json

And can you change your media mount from a bind to a volume mount?

Code:

- /XXXX/XXXX/jellyfin/media:/media

For some reason bind mounts sometimes cause weird problems that are hard to explain.

One thing I noticed in your log is that your remuxes are outputting in a weird format. The output of the remux might be the cause of the issue you are experiencing.

Code:

[2024-07-26 01:42:46.640 +00:00] [INF] [186] MediaBrowser.MediaEncoding.Transcoding.TranscodeManager: "/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg" "-analyzeduration 200M -probesize 1G -fflags +genpts -f mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2  -i file:\"/media/TV Shows/Petit (2018)/Season 01/Petit (2018) s01e01 - Mi mascota imaginaria existe.mp4\" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map -0:s -codec:v:0 copy -map_metadata -1 -map_chapters -1 -threads 0 -codec:a:0 copy -y \"/cache/transcodes/8d08736382a730bd1bc933c1ff91bc79.mov

I've seen this happen for another user. Normally transcodes are written to /config/transcodes instead of /cache/transcodes. Since you have /config, essentially, mounted twice I'm wondering if that is causing some weird issues with how and where transcodes are written.

Comment out the web-config.json line, restart jellyfin, and try again.
