Can't stream

Beta Community DVR Beta
#1

I have the server on a Windows machine. Tried streaming to Iphone and FireTV stick (hotel) not on my internal network.

Hit play on recording and nothing starts, this has worked in the past.

Software encoding works, Hardware encoding is when I'm having issues.

Since software encoding works why not just enable that setting and be done with it?

#3

Maybe update your video driver

Did you by chance enable use HEVC for transcoding at the bottom of the settings page? If so try disabling that.

Disabling HEVC fixed it. Did they update the code to expect a newer version and not include the .dll?

I tried downloading the latest nvenc, 11.1 but that didn't seem to fix it.
