AV1 on roku (lemmy.one)

Did anyone get AV1 codec to work via Jellyfin? I can play the file over a USB stick connected directly to the Roku, but just getting audio only when playing via Jellyfin.

Can you check in the logs what exactly Jellyfin tries to do? Does it try to transcode for any reason?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It does are package, remux. Not sure how to prevent this

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Remux means the container format you're using isn't supported. The video and audio won't be transcoded, so this should have minimal impact only.

Edit: What container are you using? According to this list every common container format should be supported by roku.

I found the repacking setting under transcoding, let me turn that off and see if the remuxing stops.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is that a setting specific to the roku client? I wasn't able to find it in the server settings.

No luck, movies that are mkvs require a remux. I checked the logs but could not see the reason for the remux

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sorry for the late reply. Do mkvs with other codecs (avc or hevc) also remux?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, from what I can see everything sent to the Roku is being remuxed. I can triple check this, but I know that hevc is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I couldn't really find anything on the web that would explain the remuxing :/
Have you tried asking on the Jellyfin forums? The devs probably hang out there and could help further.

Yeah, I GUESS it's time for me to sign up over there. Thanks for looking, I'm not too sure either. 🤘
