Roku plays h264 1080 content just fine. It doesn't try to transcode the file. I have gotten some new videos at 4k that I have encoded to h265 main10@L5.1@main. I have also encoded the audio to ACC(Two tracks 7.1 and 5.1) This requires a transcode to play on both Roku and Firefox players that I know of. Jellyfin transcodes just fine on Firefox and even better once I upped the CPU core allotment. When I try on roku I see no errors in the log other than jellyfin receiving the q command.
I am running on trueNAS scale with most current version same goes with Roku. It is a 1080p display for roku.(I have VR headset and run Bigscreen App for the 4k content when my headset is charged ... So I don't want to lose the resolution either)
I have tried different transcode settings. HVEC transcode if possible, playback in fMPG if available, Throttle transcode. Running a CRF of 20(h265) and 16(h264). I have also tried main10@L5@main. I don't want to go to 8 bit(Looking at a 6hr encoded from OG source(Main10@L5.1@High to even try). I have also tried binding to host network. I has saw someone state their issue might be a network error with basic auth and HTTP
Log
Update I forgot I had some 480 content encoded to h265 with defaults at 8 bit and this works just fine on roku. Just not my 4k content. I don't want to lose quality so I would like to keep it at 10bit and not try 8bit cause I have space constraints and don't have room for two files of the same movie. I have tried forcing the max resolution setting to see if it was this to no avail.
