Movie file not playing

Hi Guys
I am using pro 2, my issue I can the movie file on Serviio, but when I go to play it will not do so. I have around 50 odd movies all mp4 format the majority will play but others will not. Strange, anyone had this issue in the past. https://19216801.onl/ https://routerlogin.uno/
Thank you in advance.

Re: Movie file not playing

Is this using MediaBrowser, or are you using a player on your network? If via the browser, you might have a browser plug-in that is interfering with the video playback. I have an Auto-play blocker installed (I hate news sites that auto-play videos I don't want to watch) and it interferes with MediaBrowser as well.

If it's a player, remember that simply because they are all in an MP4 container doesn't mean they all have the same codecs within that container, and your player might not support a codec used in some of your media. You should determine the media contents of a file that plays, and compare it to one that doesn't play, and look for differences in the codecs.
