HEVC Content Being Transcoded on app version 1.5 because of VideoProfile
BUG
Since upgrading to app version 1.5, all HEVC files are being transcoded to h264. This also seems to be triggering an audio transcode as well, but the root issue is the video
.
The screenshots show the same file, in this case my Bluray rip of The Batman. It is encoded in HEVC/EAC3. WIth 1.5 it transcodes. On the dev channel version I have installed from a week or so ago, the file direct plays without issue.
Expected Behavior HEVC content should Direct Play as it did on previous versions of the Jellyfin Roku app.

I should mention that his happens on all three of my Roku Ultras in my house and the same behavior occurs at my father in laws house on his Jellyfin system I setup for him.
Do you happen to know know what Profile Level the hevc videos are using? Roku only "support" versions 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1, although it's likely they can play other versions without too many issues.
For h264 we allow attempting to play unsupported profile versions and falling back to transcoding if the playback fails - but we haven't implemented that for hevc yet. Would be interested to know what profile version your media is using - as I've not found anything higher than 5.1 in my (limited) search

Neil,
Just to follow up on this post and our discussion in the Matrix chat, most of my HEVC media is L4.0 as that is the default for Handbrake. I have one video that is L5.0 which is an officially supported profile which failed to direct play and was transcoded. I then just re-ripped a Bluray to HEVC Main 10 L4.1 and that failed as well.
From what you told me, they should pass the profile checking logic as they are less than 5.1 and it doesn't check for specific profiles. The only other thing of note about the L4.1 and L5.0 videos is that they are listed as high tier, not main. I didn't select this in Handbrake. It seems to be part of encoding about L4.0. I'm not sure if tiers have any impact on the profile checking.
Even without adding in an option to attempt direct playing unsupported profiles like was implemented for h264 video, should not at least the videos with profile levels L4.1 and L5.0 direct play?
Thanks, Matt
I experience the similar issue with client 1.5 (Roku 4K TV). Video is HEVC main 10, L4.1.
TranscodeReason=VideoProfileNotSupported
I also am experiencing a similar issue with client 1.5 on Roku Ultra LT. Have tested with multiple videos / encodings / video profiles. Any video which is HEVC main 10 - regardless of video profile level - fails to direct play and instead is transcoded with the
TranscodeReason=VideoProfileNotSupported reason.
Any video with is HEVC main plays directly without issues.
You can modify line 137 in source/utils/deviceCapabilities.brs with:
{
"Type": "Video",
"Codec": "hevc",
"Conditions": [
{
"Condition": "EqualsAny",
"Property": "VideoProfile",
"Value": "main 10",
"IsRequired": false
},
{
"Condition": "LessThanEqual",
"Property": "VideoLevel",
"Value": StrI(30 * 5.1),
"IsRequired": false
}
]
}
This appears to have solved the issue with trascoding / remuxing for me.
Removing the line also works, as hevc 5.1 should still be picked up as valid for direct playback. The change introduced by the 1.5 release that added the hevc codec conditions seems to override the direct play flag (which should still say True in the logs) and cause the transcode or repackaging.
So I managed to also get it working by changing the existing portion in source/utils/deviceCapabilities.brs to:
{
"Type": "Video",
"Codec": "hevc",
"Conditions": [
{
"Condition": "EqualsAny",
"Property": "VideoProfile",
"Value": "main|main 10",
"IsRequired": false
},
{
"Condition": "LessThanEqual",
"Property": "VideoLevel",
"Value": StrI(120 * 5.1),
"IsRequired": false
}
]
}
This allowed my HEVC and HEVC 10 files to direct play in one of the PR that I downloaded.
