Transcoding not working with docker-compose setup

[jamesvincent]

I can't for the life of me get transcoding to work when using the docker-compose.yml setup. I can see the command is parsed, but no transcoding occurs.

I've noticed the same. I experimented with adding a separate nginx container with php-fpm running with an increased timeout limit but no joy. Attaching the relevant sections from my compose file and nginx.conf file:

docker-compose.yml

```yaml ... ... spodcast-cron: image: heywoodlh/spodcast-cron:latest container_name: spodcast-cron hostname: spodcast-cron volumes: - ${CONFIG}/spodcast:/data environment: - PGID - PUID - CRON_SCHEDULE=0 * * * * - SPOTIFY_USERNAME=${SPOTIFY_USR} - SPOTIFY_PASSWORD=${SPOTIFY_PWD} - SPOTIFY_PODCAST_URLS=https://open.spotify.com/show/6kAsbP8pxwaU2kPibKTuHE - TRANSCODE=YES - MAX_EPISODES=15 - LOG_LEVEL=INFO restart: unless-stopped spodcast-php: image: php:7-fpm container_name: spodcast-php hostname: spodcast-php volumes: - ${CONFIG}/spodcast:/data restart: unless-stopped user: "101:101" networks: - local depends_on: - spodcast-cron spodcast-web: image: heywoodlh/spodcast-web:latest container_name: spodcast-web hostname: spodcast-web volumes: - ${CONFIG}/spodcast:/data restart: unless-stopped networks: - local ports: - 3310:80 depends_on: - spodcast-cron pod-feed: image: nginx:latest container_name: pod-feed ports: - 8080:80 volumes: - ${CONFIG}/pod_rss/default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf - ${CONFIG}/spodcast/html:/var/www/html environment: - NGINX_HOST=example.local - NGINX_PORT=80 links: - php-fpm networks: - local depends_on: - php-fpm php-fpm: image: php:8-fpm container_name: feed-php expose: - 9000 volumes: - ${CONFIG}/spodcast/html:/var/www/html networks: - local ```

default.conf

```Nginx ... server { listen 80; # listen 80 default_server; # listen [::]:80; # server_name locahost; index .index.php; root /var/www/html; fastcgi_read_timeout 300; fastcgi_send_timeout 300; proxy_read_timeout 300; proxy_connect_timeout 300; proxy_send_timeout 300; # these files should not be accessible location ~\.(json|info)$ { deny all; return 404; } location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string =404; } location /Armchair_Expert_with_Dax_Shepard { client_max_body_size 50M; } # adjust nginx to start if host is not reachable resolver 127.0.0.11; set $upstream php-fpm:9000; location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass $upstream; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info; } } ```

Interestingly enough, using the nginx proxy, I could add the feed in the iOS Podcast app and follow the request in the container logs, but streaming/downloading continuously errors out. I would love to troubleshoot it further if anyone has any ideas.

I had the same problem.

What seems to have fixed it for me (at least temporarily) is to manually edit spodcast.json (should be located in the root of the used docker-volume) and set "TRANSCODE": "True".

After that, I deleted the podcast from the html folder (this might not be required) and restarted the docker setup. The episodes re-downloaded, were transcoded to mp3 and added to the rss feed immediately.
