    The version of Jellyfin you are running (e.g. 10.8.10): 10.10.3
    Your installation method and platform (e.g. Linux Docker, Debian repository, Windows installer, etc.): Debian repository
    What client(s) you are using and how the issue manifests: Jellyfin for Fire TV 0.18.3

    I bought and ripped Godzilla Minus One on UHD and wanted to play it via Jellyfin but whenever I try to play it via the Jellyfin for Fire TV client no picture appears but I do get sound. When I pause it via the remote control pause button no Jellyfin UI appears and pressing the typical buttons to bring up the UI doesn't bring it up. When I access the Jellyfin dashboard on another device it says the file is direct playing so no transcoding is involved. Plex has zero issues with this file.

    This movie is the only movie I'm having trouble with, I've successfully ripped and watched at least 20 UHD movies via Jellyfin and I'm not doing anything different when ripping this specific movie. This movie works perfectly fine when I try to watch it on my PC with the official Jellyfin desktop client on Windows 11. Here's the file details, nothing unordinary stands out.
