AV1 on roku (lemmy.one)
submitted 1 year ago by CCatMan@lemmy.one to c/jellyfin@lemmy.ml

Did anyone get AV1 codec to work via Jellyfin? I can play the file over a USB stick connected directly to the Roku, but just getting audio only when playing via Jellyfin.

Remux means the container format you're using isn't supported. The video and audio won't be transcoded, so this should have minimal impact only.

Edit: What container are you using? According to this list every common container format should be supported by roku.

I'm using MKV, but for whatever reason Jellyfin wants to remux all the MKVs 🤘

I can share the file with you if you want to see what happens? But I'm not going to put that link here lol

[-] exu@feditown.com 1 points 1 year ago

I don't have a roku to test on, so it probably reacts in a different way :/

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, no problem. I just wanted to save space in my server as my disk rips are big and AV1 is really impressive.

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

I found the repacking setting under transcoding, let me turn that off and see if the remuxing stops.

[-] exu@feditown.com 1 points 1 year ago

Is that a setting specific to the roku client? I wasn't able to find it in the server settings.

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

It says "Allow video playback that requires converaion without reencoding" I assume this is the remux setting?

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

No luck, movies that are mkvs require a remux. I checked the logs but could not see the reason for the remux

[-] exu@feditown.com 1 points 1 year ago

Sorry for the late reply. Do mkvs with other codecs (avc or hevc) also remux?

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, from what I can see everything sent to the Roku is being remuxed. I can triple check this, but I know that hevc is.

[-] exu@feditown.com 1 points 1 year ago

I couldn't really find anything on the web that would explain the remuxing :/
Have you tried asking on the Jellyfin forums? The devs probably hang out there and could help further.

[-] CCatMan@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I GUESS it's time for me to sign up over there. Thanks for looking, I'm not too sure either. 🤘
