Video 'buffering' and no ffmpeg log

[TheDreadPirate]

I have tested a redownload of the file and the problem still occurs. I have attempted your command:

Code:

/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -fflags +genpts+igndts -i "/path/to/your/problem/video.mkv" -map 0 -codec copy newFile.mkv

This fixes the pausing/buffering but brings the dreaded purple/green tint. Very confusing.

Can you show me the media info for the original file?

   

Out of curiosity, I tried changing my bandwidth limits. Setting the bandwidth limit well above the actual limit resulted in no change. Setting a very low limit resulted in a blank screen and a timeout. Just in case this information is pertinent.

The quality selector only comes into play when you select a bit rate lower than the video's native bit rate.  If you have, for example, a video with a 10Mbps bit rate and you select 15Mbps nothing will happen.  If you select 8Mbps that will trigger a transcode since it is lower than the video's native resolution.
