Unnecessarily transcoding audio (EAC3) — Philips Smart TV #2100

Open dglava opened 1 year ago

dglava commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

The audio track is being transcoded (eac3->aac), despite EAC3 being supported by my hardware (Philips Android TV). I tried playing the file back on the hardware's integrated video player and it worked. Jellyfin is listing the transcode reason as TranscodeReasons=DirectPlayError.

Is there anything faulty on my end and if yes, how can I troubleshoot that? Alternatively, if this is an issue in the Jellyfin Android-TV client, is it something that can be fixed?

Possibly related issues: #1723, #1874, #1400.

I am still getting this issue in the latest release of Jellyfin-AndroidTV, version 0.15.2. According to my TV's manual, it should support EAC3 natively:

Audio Codecs : AAC, HE-AAC (v1/v2), AMR-NB,
Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS Premium
Sound™, MPEG-1/2/2.5 Layer I/II/III (includes MP3),
WMA (v2 to v9.2), WMA Pro (v9/v10)

There is a slight change though: I am getting a TranscodeReason=ContainerBitrateExceedsLimit ) instead of the old TranscodeReason=DirectPlayError ). I looked a bit into it and stumbled upon this related issue https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/3277.

I changed the Max. Streaming-Bitrate" inside Jellyfin-AndroidTV (in the video section) to 120 MBit/s instead of Auto* and now I am back to getting the old transcoding reason TranscodeReason=DirectPlayError ).

All that applies when I don't enable the "Bitstream Dolby Digital Audio" and "Bitstream DTS Audio" switches in Jellyfin-AndroidTV. When I enable those, it's again just a black screen with audio that cuts off after a short time.

I guess it's transcoding because I didn't check those 2 boxes, but when I check those 2 boxes I don't get any video?

I am still experiencing this with Jellyfin-AndroidTV version 0.15.12.

The log is showing this reason for reencoding now: TranscodeReason=AudioCodecNotSupported. Here's the part of the transcode log: Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (eac3 (native) -> aac (libfdk_aac)).

I encounter the same problem. Philips 55OLED804/12 (TPM191E), plays EAC3 fine. But Jellyfin wants to transcode if not permitted per user rights. Jellyfin-AndroidTV version 0.15.12.
