Please describe your bug

Since updating to 10.9.x all live TV streams from my HDHomeRun Extend (model: HDTC-2US) have audio delayed by 5 seconds. This happens in Safari and in Chrome.

I've tested both on Ubuntu 22.04.4 (direct install of Jellyfin) and on my Apple laptop using Docker.

Reproduction Steps

To reproduce I ran this docker compose:

---
services:
  jellyfin:
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin:10.9.0
    container_name: jellyfin
    user: 1000:1000
    ports:
      - 8096:8096

once setup with user/password i added my HDHomeRun IP address, and attempted streaming an over-the-air channel. the audio was delayed by almost 5 seconds.

Changing the compose file to use jellyfin/jellyfin:10.8.13 made the streams work perfectly, without audio delay

I did a diff on the ffmpeg command between 10.8.13 and 10.9.0. See below:

> -y "./transcodes/91893804987efb6f8e99b63390ab0ac5.m3u8"

Here are the full ffmpeg commands from 10.9 and 10.8. I ran both these commands directly on my laptop (homebrew ffmpeg version 6.1.1), and was able to reproduce the same issue (I ran python3 -m http.server to start a server in the HLS output directory, and streamed from http://127.0.0.1:8000/transcodes/91893804987efb6f8e99b63390ab0ac5.m3u8 )

Based on the above (even with ffmpeg on my laptop) it seems the fmp4 segment type causes large audio delay, but mpegts does not.

What’s wrong with docker? These options are configurable using GUI and should not be a big issue for docker. The DTS one is in your Tuner config, the fmp4 one is in playback settings.

I am running docker image 10.9.2 and have a HDHR4-2US tuner. There are no GUI sections I cam make changes to..under edit I get 2 check boxes 1) Restrict to channels marked as favorite, 2) Allow hardware transcoding

Also under playback I searched for DTS also don't find any item related. I feel I am just not finding the settings you are referring.. sorry

Thank you for your suggestion, @gnattu !

As others have said, there is no DTS setting in the tuner settings for HD Home Run devices.

Unchecking the "Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container" checkbox (under User settings) fixes the issue!

Live TV streams video/audio is in perfect sync now!

I'll just have to let other users of my server to do the same 😊

Ideally the LiveTV should use its own setting override and not always use the global settings due to its specialities. I may add an override for LiveTV so that it will never use fmp4 even if that is enabled as global setting.

In 10.9.9 I have just experienced this issue.

1. I an watch the channel live in jellyfin no problem. I choose an MPEG2 one for ease.
2. I can record that channel and the recorded ts is fine, VLC plays it directly totally fine

But when I play back through Jellyfin the Prefer fMP4 must be off. So I think perhaps the fix is working for "livetv", but overlooks stuff in "Recordings" ?

This is not an overlook and we are aware of this, but there is currently no clean way for us to do this because the transcoding pipeline is unable to tell if the video file comes from a livetv recording or is a regular video in the library unless we perform (expensive) extra db queries for every video requests to check their sources.

Thanks @gnattu. I dont understand the background or when the fMP4 is in use/needed

For the fMP4 setting... i don't remember enabling it and its taken hours to find what was happening and didn't come across this bug report so easily.

I dont know about DB, but you could drop something in the recordings folder as a flag that the server can check and decide as it grabs the file.

I encountered the same issue when playing live TV channels from the TvHeadend plugin.

With fMP4 enabled:
Firefox (Mac): doesn't play at all
Safari (Mac): audio async
Chrome (Mac): audio async
Jellyfin on Android: audio async

Disabling fMP4 fixed the issues for all clients. Thanks @gnattu.

I believe this issue should remain open because it is still unresolved as of 10.10.3

Unselecting 'Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container' under the Client Playback settings is only a workaround. This issue should remain open until an 'Allow fMP4 transcoding container' option is added for selecting an HDHomeRun as a tuner.

Had the same problem on Jellyfin.Server 10.10.2.0. But with at least 2 mkv files instead of live TV streams.

Disabling "Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container" fixed it.

Problem occurred on Firefox (Fedora) and Safari (MacOS).

But it seems to be enabled by default. Is there a way to disable it for all users by default?

EDIT: Whether the option enabled or disabled, on the WebOS Client the mkv were always played back directly without audio desync.

Confirming the same issue on another TV tuner: Enigma2.
Disabling "Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container" resolved the audio sync problem.
Waiting for final solution, better by correcting fMP4-HLS Media container or option to globally disable it for Live TV.

Additionally one suggestion for Live TV improvement: when two users watching the sam TV channel, Jellyfin is requesting two separate streams to TV tuner. Maybe it will be possible to use the same Tuner stream to both users?

Had the same problem on Jellyfin.Server 10.10.2.0. But with at least 2 mkv files instead of live TV streams.

Disabling "Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container" fixed it.

Problem occurred on Firefox (Fedora) and Safari (MacOS).

But it seems to be enabled by default. Is there a way to disable it for all users by default?

EDIT: Whether the option enabled or disabled, on the WebOS Client the mkv were always played back directly without audio desync.

I think there is no way to disable this by default. The setting isn't even per user, it's per client. So if you log out and back in, the setting is enabled again. At least from what I experienced.

Is there any updates on this for people using tvheadend instead of the built in hdhomerun for live tv? I just switched and found the audio is out of sync with the latest tvheadend and latest Jellyfin. The setting works to get it functioning again but I lose direct play of hvec. And the fact the setting is per client which isn’t ideal. Thanks!
