Last night I tried playing a large remux file from Bluray. All of the audio tracks are in FLAC, yet for some reason Jellyfin was still transcoding. This caused about a frame of severe pixelated distortion every 5 minutes or so, which was super annoying. I checked the logs and the admin dashboard, it looks like Jellyfin was transcoding the FLAC audio to AAC:
Why is that? I thought FLAC was supported. I watched a different remux the other day with mono FLAC audio and didn't notice any issues with playback.
Stream mapping:
Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (hevc (native) -> hevc (hevc_vaapi))
Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (flac (native) -> aac (libfdk_aac))
