I have an Roku Ultra and an older Roku 3 and I get the same results on both. They are set for direct playback of MPEG2. why is it transcoding?
I did notice that certain shows will always have a problem and other shows will consistently work correctly. One show was 720p and another was 1080i and worked great with low CPU usage (i don't even see FFMPEG running). Another show (on a different channel) is also 1080i but each episode plays poorly and spikes the CPU.
Is there a way know when Jellyfin decides to transcode? is it based on the codec and resolution?
