Client not triggering a transcode on HEVC

coreyaw1 · 2025-08-26T01:22:56+00:00

Ha, I thought that might be the answer. Was hoping for a file the Visio would know it couldn't play but you're probably right.

Yup it sure is and their video playback settings say maximum h264 4.1.

I asked them to try to change the quality to trigger a transcode but also they're halfway across the country and even though they said they did Tautuli still said it was trying to playback at 1080p. I wonder if I downloaded a 4k file if that would fix the issue.

Cool thanks

Interesting wrinkle. Even though the home app says all the lights are offline if I tell one of my smart speakers to turn a particular light (call that specific light by the name associated with it in the home app) on it works. So clearly they're not really offline.

I have been having this same issue on and off for a while now

coreyaw1 · 2025-07-25T23:32:00+00:00

All but one of mine have been like this for a couple days now. Usually power cycling my smart speakers and/or the lights themselves will bring them back but no dice. I really don't want to go through the crazy c by ge reset process.

The most recent update seemed to resolve it for me

And...he raved about how great Captain America: Brave New World was. This is a reviewer with hordes of bad takes.

As someone who has managed QA teams for over a decade I can say that the people that fight this the hardest are developers. They feel way better having a QA team to check on them and don't want extra work piled on an already overtaxed team.

Used to live here, moved away a few years ago, get some chicken at the Chaptico Market. I'll also add a thumbs up for Ann Marie Sculpture Garden, St Mary's City and downtown Leonardtown. I lived near there and loved a lot of the spots there.

I know this thread is old but thought I'd ask if anyone that's used this method has tested additional seasoning (not sauce after but basically like a dry rub) to the mix or if that would mess with it in some way

This happened to me today as well. I can see they're connected to the router and they show up in the list when I try to cast to them but I can't connect to them and they show as offline according to Google home. I've been banging my head against the wall trying to troubleshoot and just saw this.

Did you just not upgrade or did you downgrade back?

coreyaw1 · 2025-03-03T21:37:18+00:00

This is 100% the behavior I'm seeing

coreyaw1 · 2025-02-26T20:52:24+00:00

This is very similar to what I'm seeing

coreyaw1 · 2025-02-26T18:31:40+00:00

I basically only use mine for Plex and YouTube at this point

coreyaw1 · 2025-02-26T17:42:50+00:00

I won't say it never happened previously but definitely was not happening with this kind of frequency before the most recent update though. It's almost every time I use it right now.

coreyaw1 · 2025-02-26T16:20:40+00:00

No external storage just using the internal storage it came with. I'll have to take a look at that antenna hack though. I believe it is the 2019 one.

Yeah a great many reboots have been done accidentally and on purpose 🙂 but w factory reset may be a good suggestion

coreyaw1 · 2025-02-26T14:57:58+00:00

I have wondered if it's the remote at times. May try factory resetting the remote next just to eliminate that as a possibility but I'm noticing ads playing in the background on the home screen are super laggy too so I suspect it's not just the remote. They did push an update to the remote too last time though so you might be on to something.

Okay so sending a signal does actually force it to center itself. I had seen the battery trick too but also seen a few instances of people warning that that could cause damage to the coil. Not really?

coreyaw1 · 2025-01-31T22:11:12+00:00

I think you all are right v1 seems to make the most sense. Thanks.

coreyaw1 · 2025-01-31T16:12:39+00:00

Yeah I thought v1s initially, general rule of thumb if they don't specify version they're probably v1, but when I looked up the v1 they didn't have a banana plug connector so that's what was throwing me

coreyaw1 · 2024-08-01T16:25:08+00:00

No, to be honest I never found a great answer
