#Jellyfin on AndroidTV failing to play

Using 0.8.7-94db4bf6-docker-vaapi

Playback on iOS and web browsers on both Windows and macOS works just fine, but playback on AndroidTV using the native Jellyfin app version 0.17.3 fails to stream. If I direct the Jellyfin app to use an external player (VLC), it works fine.

#

I've tried on both a Amazon Fire Stick and a native AndroidTV, both of which fail to stream. No error other than "Player error encoutered"

#

Okay, further troubleshooting - if I force transcoding on live TV in the jellyfin options, it works fine, so it seems like whatever my transcoding settings are on Ersatz aren't compatible with AndroidTV. Kinda odd, cause this only cropped up a week or two ago. These are my ffmpeg settings, maybe someone sees something glaringly obvious

I would check your jellyfin logs
