Default LG WebOS profile is broken for transcoding in Jellyfin (at least for CX).afarvvik wrote: ↑Wed May 03, 2023 1:54 amHi @RESET_9999RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 10:45 pmI just tested my C8 with DV TS files and I can confirm that FF/RW works on both PLEX and webOS app.
the file i tried had closed gop though
Finally got round to testing this. can confirm FF/REW work in Plex & emby apps, so the issue was the jellyfin & webos inbuilt media player app.
Issue now is that in the Plex app if you select external srt subtitles it compulsorily transcodes even those files which otherwise play properly in "Direct Play" mode if subs are kept disabled. This is only happening with Plex, with emby everything plays ok even with subs.
I would've just stuck with emby & be done with it but for the bad UI design on the emby app on the tv where the subtitle toggle opens in full screen with a grey background & the movie keeps playing, so every time you disable or enable subs you also have to go back 10 seconds to see what you missed. Any clues of how to fix the Plex transcoding? I suspect it's a new issue in one of the latest plex versions as research seems to suggest this should not be occurring.
Thank you.
It starts transcoding even when file is available for directplay. I edited the default LG profile to allow all files without transcoding and checked in logs that it uses DirectPlay.
