This started happening in the last couple of days and only on my android phone. I'll start playing a video, any video and after 28 seconds playback of the video will start from the beginning; even if I fast forward through a video. Playing videos through the web browser is fine.

I've tried restarting jellyfin, I've tried disabling NVENC transcoding and I've even tried restarting the host.

I'm running Jellyfin server 10.10.7, dunno what version of the android client I'm using. If I change the video player type from Web Player to Integrated Player I can watch videos no problem.

I've looked at the regular log and the transcoding log and there's no errors there.

I'm having the same problem but only for certain videos

Whats the video file format encoder used?

[–] UntouchedWagons@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

The videos were encoded in h264 if that's what you're asking.

I just had this problem for the first time last night! I changed bitrate from a random low rate that tends to work on my wifi and it fixed itself.

I changed it to auto. Forgot to add that part
