SOLVED: Still using 10.8.9

No. The startup logs show all the plugins installed. And it shows that local intros isn't installed or isn't starting.

I'm not following... What does the local intros plugin have to do with my issue?

I probably typed a response that was supposed to go in another tab for another thread.

I meant to reply to this thread.

Coming at your logs with fresh eyes, is it because it is generating trickplays or chapter image extraction?

I'm not sure what trickplays are, but i don't have any plugins or settings to do this.

I misinterpreted some of the ffmpeg parameters in your log, which aren't present in hardware accelerated transcoding.

Can you try manually remuxing one of your videos into a MP4 or MKV container?  I noticed all your videos are in TS containers and I'm wondering if a direct play profile in the roku app or jellyfin server is not configured correctly.

Double checks I am in the right thread looking at the right log.

Code:

/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -fflags +genpts+igndts -i "/media/Media/tv/Saturday Night Live/Season 50/Saturday Night Live S50E03 Ariana Grande; Stevie Nicks.ts" -map 0 -codec copy -max_muxing_queue_size 2048 -avoid_negative_ts auto -max_interleave_delta 0 newFile.mkv

I'm having this problem with all of my DVRed shows (.ts files). I made the .mkv file with jellyfin-ffmpeg and received a bunch of "PES packet size mismatch" and "Packet corrupt" errors where were also in the log file i shared but the file converted. I played the .mkv over Jellyfin from the Roku and the video file played much better than the original .ts file but it did freeze at one point. The ffmpeg binary didn't run so i guess it wasn't transcoding. The Jellyfin binary used less than 100% of a CPU core so much better processor usage.

Try putting in a MP4. Same command, just replace the extension for "newFile". Remuxing live TV is hit or missing when it comes to corruption depending on the source.

This time the conversion ran for a few seconds and failed:

I tried putting one of my MPEG2 test videos in TS (originally in MKV) and it still direct played on my 4800X.

Can you install the playback reporting plugin on 10.10 and replicate the issue with your TS files? That plugin should print out why it is being transcoded.

Or you can have the Dashboard open on your PC and click on the "i" icon for the Roku playback and it should tell you why it is being transcoded.
