Server Version#: Version 1.25.2.5319
Player Version#: 8.27.1.29871
I have a well running home set up with Plex on Synology 415+ which is working well with Web and Nvidia shield clients. However, having installed a Fire TV stick 4K Max with a projector I found an odd glitch.
When sound is played via the projector speaker, there is no issues with playing any of the movies. However, as soon as I connect an external bluetooth speaker to the Fire Stick, I start getting “The server is not powerful enough to convert video messages” with any video files containing EAC3 streams. It is pretty clear that Plex is able to directplay the videostream, but it for some reason “decides” to transcode EAC3 audio stream (which it was able to directplay before the connection of the bluetooth speaker), which it can’t do on Synology 415+.
One workaround I found (when using a bluetooth speaker) is to select a different audio stream and then go back EAC3 audiostream that Plex client was having issues with, on the second attempt (after this switch) it EAC3 always works without transcoding/glitches.
Any thoughts?
