It is very good if Serviio have the capability to continue transcoding and streaming any minor broken video files.

How about Serviio could skip glitch part and continue transcoding and streaming . Is that impossible to program it? A video only glitch half to 1 second.

Its more upto ffmpeg. If you can find an option to ffmpeg to skip invalid frames when transcoding then you could always try using an ffmpeg wrapper to test it - but no idea if one exists. However if your stream is just being re-packaged from say an mkv to an m2ts, then the video isn't actully getting transcoding and nothing can be done about it.

invalid frames are already skipped that why you get audio sink issues with some devices.

yes but ffmpeg could duplicate frame (equivalent to a pause) when invalid frame or underflow buffer occurred...
