Buffering

[iwishiknewmore]

Hey people, i need help troubleshooting an issue that has popped up, i have jellyfin running in a docker container, which worked great up until now, streams with a bit rate larger than 7 seem to always buffer every so often, the higher the bitrate the more it buffers and it becomes absolutely impossible to watch most things. it happens on the windows desktop app, in browser, but not on mobile, ive tried both my pc and laptop, both experience this issue. It also affects both direct play as well as transcodes, but it isnt resource limited as docker has plenty of cpu and ram, nor network limited as even when i know pretty much nothing is using the bandwidth it still happens, ive tried different docker image tags, redeploying with portainer, backups, but it still happens. Anyone have any ideas? let me know if you need any more info, thanks.

Can you share your full jellyfin logs via pastebin?

@TheDreadPirate
which logs do you need, when you go to dashboard, and then to logs? which ones there?

i get this making the 2 pastebin links (file is 800kb):
Pastebin’s SMART filters have detected potentially offensive or questionable content in your Paste.
The content you are trying to publish has been deemed potentially offensive or questionable by our filters, because of this you’re receiving this warning.

it being private wont work right?

Try privatebin.

I think their max is higher.

You have an (old?) plugin thats not loading right but thats not your issue.

Do you have a transcoding log? That would be great as this generally looks ok.

In addition to the ffmpeg logs, can you also share your hardware specs, Linux distro, and whether there is any virtualization.

[iwishiknewmore]

here are ffmpeg logs, most recent ones. https://privatebin.net/?78f167e25991f99a...HoYrXjSLgw
system is as follows:
OS: proxmox with 12600k cpu
virtualized on proxmox in vm's: opnsense, openm,ediavault and proxmox backup server. And then a debian lxc container with docker installed {Stuff we don't talk about - TDP}. this lxc has 4cpus, 8gb ram, 8gb swap and 40gb boot disk
media is stored on 1 16tb drive with all config, transcodes etc on a 2tb nvme.

ive since noticed that with no streams from jellyfin all ui's are responsive, but with even one stream they take much longer to load, i dont know why this is as this wasnt the case before
