4K HDR HEVC file stuttering on multiple devices

jmalexan commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

I have a copy of the movie Nope that's 4k HDR HEVC (I'll paste the file info below), and it's stuttering when trying to play it on any of my swiftfin devices. Dropping a frame or two every couple of seconds. Not sure how to get more debug info, but it's the only client client I can find so far I have this issue on. I believe my server has hardware transcoding enabled, but it's a newer server and I'm not 100% confident it's actually working.

Original report specified tvOS, but I realized my iOS app has the same problem with the same file, so I've updated the report to reflect that

My understanding is that VLCKit (default player) doesn't do HDR. Does your server have HDR > SDR toning mapping enabled? Alternatively, if you go into Experimental could you try enabling Native player? On top of that, if you still experience this issue, could you try enabling Force Direct Play?

I hope this helps!

I do have "Enable Tone mapping" turned on in the server settings, so I assume if the player didn't support HDR it would be converting to HDR for me.

I tried forcing the native player, but when I did that it completely refused to show video for this particular file (I tried a couple of other files and they work fine). Forcing Direct Play didn't make the native player show video, nor did it fix the VLCKit player stuttering.

Is there an update on this issue? I am also experiencing the same thing.

I tried all of the experimental features already, and not having much luck. However, unlike @jmalexan, I am NOT having the same issue on iOS, using the Jellyfin iOS App.

I don’t know if it helps to know, but I am having a similar issue with same file type on tvOS.
