Stream Error 4003

[Thunderbolt8]

Getting a "Stream Error 4003" most of the times I try to access streams "betboom_eng", "betboom_eng2", "betboom_eng3". I say most of the times because I suspect its related to their bitrate settings. it seems to be problematic if their source 1080p60 bitrate is higher than 8.60ish or so. then its either this error message with a black screen or sometimes (tough rarely) a standstill screen while there is sound running. accessing their stream at lower resolutions works normally for me (unless I deactivate the auto reduce quality setting of course).

any idea why this is?

Are you are this happens in the Android version of the app?

This is the Android only repo

The Samsung https://github.com/fgl27/smarttv-twitch

I have see reports like this but not for Android.

I can't replicate also have no workaround for now

Can you replicate the issue in vods? Share a vod that you can?

[Thunderbolt8]

yes, it is an AndroidTV (Phillips 4k TV 55PUS6401/12, albeit a really old one >7-8 years old; afaik Android version seems to be 8.0.0 after latest update)

Basically the streams from the last 3 days (probably more), e.g.:

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2032257178 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2031172112 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2030099707

these vods wont load at all for me on that TV (fine with PC though; although no error message this time, but stream ended message instead)

btw I noticed this actually works when I enable the google codec and disable the other one. though "works" is a bit much, the livestream is so slow its basically unwatchable and the vods above do start, but exit as soon as I try to skip forward.

4003 is codec unsupported

https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/blob/9c9f5a0599ec012d5cc46e3bd2e732a589adf61d/library/transformer/src/main/java/com/google/android/exoplayer2/transformer/ExportException.java#L157

The device is just out of date.

Google codec is SW codec.

The SW codec isn't affected but because there device is old doesn't have the performance to be used

[fgl27]

The only workaround is to disable source for those.

[Thunderbolt8]

can I do this, disable source for these channels separately without changing the global settings for all other channels? everything else is fixed to 'source' startup and not to deviate from this even if there should be lag.

[fgl27]

The app doesn't have that level of configuration.

You can disable globally only.

alright, thank your for your help.
