I am going to say this is the same thing. I just did a ton of testing. And it makes no sense save 1 thing. When it transcodes it seems ok.
Here is what I did.
- Mapped a drive, tossed a file on it.
- played that title, sound was transcoded as would be typical (but has not happened in quite some time), and playback is normal and OK
- played the same title but from the direct UNC, it too was transcoded and played ok
- played the mapped drive title again but after restarting JellyFin, still OK
- played from the UNC path, still OK
- unmapped the drive, played the UNC path title, still OK
So somehow since the mapped drive title play, it's transcoding the sound every time and working every time (I think it's just the sound all I see is TS files).
I should add that the typical behavior of Roku/Plex in this case is to transcode as this is a stereo TV. Since it's NOT been transcoding this happens.
I will do more testing and report back again. Let me see if Plex behaves the same and what happens post reboot.
Plex still has the same memory issue with the same file, but it too is transcoding the sound now. And while the same memory "leak" happened it occurred at a far slower rate.
I played JellyFin right behind it, JellyFin is still OK.
