    Brand new user here, attempting to switch from Plex. Jellyfin looks great, but I'm having an issue with Live TV. I have my HDHomerun tuner setup and working fine (except program guide, but separate issue) when I watch from the web browser on my pc Live TV works fine, but I can't get it to work on either of my Nvidia Shield devices. I attached a log of my Jellyfin docker starting up and then trying to play Live TV on the Shield. If you need more details in the log than what's there, you'll probably have to walk me through how to do it.

    Thanks!

    Jellyfin Server 10.10.7 (official docker) running on Unraid 7.0.1
    11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-11600K @ 3.90GHz
    16GB RAM

    jellyfin-androidtv 0.18.8 release
    Nvida Shield Pro 2019

    I still haven't had any luck getting Live TV to work with the Jellyfin client on my Nvidia Shield boxes. This is working fine for my Android phone and in a browser window, though. I am able to get Live Tv on my Nvidia Shield with Plex and also with Kodi, but I would really like to sunset Plex and the Kodi interface isn't acceptable to my wife. She wants everything in a single app with a nice interface.

    Is this a known issue on Android boxes with no solution or is there something else I could try? I did some preliminary setup with TVHeadEnd, but it looks like it just allows me to set up DVR and not broker the Live TV for Jellyfin. I've had trouble making sense of their documentation though, so I might be mistaken about that.

    Can you provide the FFmpeg logs as well? Hard to tell why its failing without those.

    Thanks for the reply. I think this is the ffmpeg log you want. Here's a log of transcode failing to Nvidia Shield and also a log of it working in web browser of my pc before I manually stopped it after a few seconds.
