This issue respects the following points:

  • This is a bug, not a question or a configuration issue; Please visit our forum or chat rooms first to troubleshoot with volunteers, before creating a report.
  • This issue is not already reported on GitHub (I've searched it).
  • I'm using an up to date version of Jellyfin Server stable, unstable or master; We generally do not support previous older versions. If possible, please update to the latest version before opening an issue.
  • I agree to follow Jellyfin's Code of Conduct.
  • This report addresses only a single issue; If you encounter multiple issues, kindly create separate reports for each one.

Description of the bug

I really hoped that my reoccurring freezes/crashes of Jellyfin would be resolved by the latest Jellyfin 10.11.X with the new LockingBehavior options. However, I still have issues freezes/crashes while users are streaming content from my Jellyfin Server - mainly if the content has to be transcoded. I'll try to describe it as detailed as possible:

  1. While users are streaming content that has to be transcoded, Jellyfin seems to get slower and slower. One indication that there might be something wrong is the Admin Dashboard: Normally active Devices are loading almost instantly. But in those situations, this list takes several seconds to load and is increasing dramatically over time...
  2. Later on, shortly after, I am receiving messages from users currently streaming that their streams are stuttering.
  3. Next my Jellyfin instance is responding with an HTTP error 404 message. After about a minute, Jellyfin is reachable again.
    UPDATE: This is due to Liveness probes failing, causing a restart of the Jellyfin container.
  4. After some minutes, the issue is reoccurring again: Jellyfin takes much longer to respond/loading pages, Streams are stuttering, Jellyfin crashes with an HTTP error 404.
  5. I do have to manually restart my Jellyfin container in order to get into a usable state again. Using Restart button within Jellyfin admin panel does not always seem to resolve the issue.

Notes:

  • The only errors I can see within Jellyfin log files is this one. However, I don't think that's the reason for these crashes:
[21:19:26] [ERR] [9] Jellyfin.Api.WebSocketListeners.SessionInfoWebSocketListener: Error sending web socket message Sessions
System.Net.WebSockets.WebSocketException (0x80004005): The WebSocket is in an invalid state ('Closed') for this operation. Valid states are: 'Open, CloseReceived'
   at System.Net.WebSockets.ManagedWebSocket.ThrowIfInvalidState(WebSocketState[] validStates)
   at System.Net.WebSockets.ManagedWebSocket.SendAsync(ReadOnlyMemory`1 buffer, WebSocketMessageType messageType, WebSocketMessageFlags messageFlags, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
--- End of stack trace from previous location ---
   at Emby.Server.Implementations.HttpServer.WebSocketConnection.SendAsync[T](OutboundWebSocketMessage`1 message, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
   at MediaBrowser.Controller.Net.BasePeriodicWebSocketListener`2.SendDataForConnectionAsync(ValueTuple`3 tuple)
  • This issue happens no matter what client they use. It already happened with Jellyfin Web, Jellyfin Media Player, Findroid, Jellyfin for Android
  • I am not sure whether it only affects Transcoding Streams or also Direct Play. I might have to observe that a bit more.
  • I have set LockingBehavior to Optimistic
  <LockingBehavior>Optimistic</LockingBehavior>

Reproduction steps

This issue happens on random occasions, currently about once per week. Sometimes I had no issues for 2 months, sometimes it happens two or three times within a week.
UPDATE: I am not sure anymore whether this is the same issue I was facing over the last months

I cannot really tell how to replicate this issue. But it only happens if users are actively streaming content from specific series (and probably movies) that has to be transcoded.
UPDATE: Additionally, it seems to be related with HTML Video Player as explained in https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/15628#issuecomment-3617447010

What is the current bug behavior?

Jellyfin gets super slow, streams are stuttering and then finally Jellyfin responds with a HTTP 404 error is so slow that I have to restart the container.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Jellyfin should not crash ;)

OK, I was just able to reproduce this error with debug logging activated.
It happened with the same show it happened yesterday, although not the same episode. Yesterday the user reported stuttering while playing Episode 2. I was able to reproduce it with Episode 1:

Okay, another update:

  • The HTTP 404 error is mainly caused by the Host (Kurbernetes) system due to Readiness/Liveness Probes: Since Jellyfin does not answer anymore to these pings tn those situations, Jellyfin container is killed at a certain point after reaching timeout.
  • After completely disable Readiness/Liveness/Startup Probes, Jellyfin only gets super slow and not really usable until not responding anymore at all, but is not reaching the 404 error.

I was able to reproduce the issue again with the same episode:

Timeline:

  • Hardware acceleration enabled (Nvidia NVENC):
    ~20:10:50: Streaming started
    ~20:14:00: Jellyfin is getting super slow
    ~20:18:30: I closed the tab containing the Stream. Shortly after, Jellyfin was responsive again.

  • Hardware acceleration disabled (CPU decoding/encoding):
    ~22:47:40: Streaming started
    ~22:49:00: Jellyfin is getting super slow
    ~22:50: I closed the tab containing the Stream. Shortly after, Jellyfin was responsive again.

Jellyfin logs: Streaming started

FFmpeg logs:

Additional Notes:

  • I have renamed the source file to not use any special characters. That didn't helped.
  • Transcoding:
    • I disabled Allow encoding in HEVC format - still same behaviour.
    • I disabled Allow encoding in AV1 format - still same behaviour.
    • I disabled Enable hardware encoding - still same behaviour.
    • I disabled Enable enhanced NVDEC decoder - still same behaviour.
    • I disabled Enable hardware decoding for HEVC - still same behaviour. Additionally, CPU load is of course much higher with that disabled.
    • When I disable Hardware acceleration all together, the behaviour is still the same.

ZFS (RAIDZ2)

Also on ZFS at my end and been digging into potential issues today.

I've been fiddling about with the value of md_num_stripes, vm.dirty_background_ratio and vm.dirty_ratio in Unraid.

I'm not saying I've solved anything (still issues with crashing and scanning the library at a certain percentage, and a server-perf-hurting resource spike from Jellyfin before the Jellyfin Docker container crashes, at least once per day), but I am seeing much better performance overall.

Will keep digging too! Please keep documenting as you have been.

Some more findings:
I tried to remove on of the series - Valeria - that causes the issue and run into the issue described at #15658.
After manually removing the episodes entries from jellyfin.db, I was able to remove the series entry with Jellyfin. After moving the series back to library folders, jellyfin correctly imported the series again. And also moving the series around inside library directories works: orphaned series entry is correctly deleted from jellyfin, new location is correctly imported.

However, I am still facing the same issue freezing/crashing when trying to play episodes with transcode enabled.
BUT: I got aware that it really depends on the client who you use:

  • If I use Jellyfin Web (HTML Video Player) I am facing the freezing/crashing issue.

  • If I use Jellyfin Android with Video Player Type set to Web Player (Jellyfin Settings --> Client Settings --> Video Player Type --> HTML Video Player) I am also facing the freezing/crashing issue.

  • If I use Jellyfin Android with Video Player Type set to Integrated Player (Jellyfin Settings --> Client Settings --> Video Player Type --> ExoPlayer) I am NOT facing the freezing/crashing issue!

  • I even remuxed/transcoded S01E01:

    • Remuxed S01E01 and removed all subtitles: Same issues.
    • Remuxed S01E01 and removed all subtitles + audio tracks: Same issues.
    • Remuxed S01E01 and removed all subtitles + audio tracks + chapter markers: Same issues.
    • Transcoded S01E01 with HandBrake from H265 --> AV1 to exclude any issues related to the container/video codec. The issue, however, is the same for the newly encoded file.

  • I now tried once again to play the transcoded episode with the new findings I did before:

    • If I play the transcoded episode with HTML Video Player (either way through Jellyfin Web or Jellyfin Android) I have those same freezing/crashing issues.
    • When I play the transcoded episode with Jellyfin Android set to Integrated Player Playback/Streaming is working flawlessly!

  • Reason for transcode is always

Reason for transcoding
The video's bitrate exceeds the limit

Another Update:
I even retried it with a complete different release.
The issue, however, is still the same: Transcoding leads to freezes/crashes of Jellyfin server, but only if Jellyfin Web is used for playback (HTML Video Player), or Jellyfin Android with Web Player selected (Jellyfin Settings --> Client Settings --> Video Player Type --> HTML Video Player)

The issue persists even with other Playback settings: Even Direct Streaming leads to freezes/crashes of Jellyfin Server:

The video stream is compatible with the device, but has an incompatible audio format (DTS, Dolby TrueHD, etc.) or number of audio channels. The video stream will be repackaged losslessly on the fly before being sent to the device. Only the audio stream will be transcoded.
Power consumed by direct streaming usually depends on the audio profile. Only the video stream is lossless.

As soon as I use the Integrated Player (Jellyfin Settings --> Client Settings --> Video Player Type --> ExoPlayer) I am NOT facing the freezing/crashing issue when transcoding the episode!

@v3DJG6GL commented on GitHub (Dec 7, 2025): Another Update: I even retried it with a complete different release. The issue, however, is still the same: Transcoding leads to freezes/crashes of Jellyfin server, but only if Jellyfin Web is used for playback (_HTML Video Player_), or Jellyfin Android with Web Player selected (_Jellyfin Settings_ --> _Client Settings_ --> _Video Player Type_ --> _HTML Video Player_) The issue persists even with other Playback settings: Even _Direct Streaming_ leads to freezes/crashes of Jellyfin Server: ``` The video stream is compatible with the device, but has an incompatible audio format (DTS, Dolby TrueHD, etc.) or number of audio channels. The video stream will be repackaged losslessly on the fly before being sent to the device. Only the audio stream will be transcoded. Power consumed by direct streaming usually depends on the audio profile. Only the video stream is lossless. ``` As soon as I use the _Integrated Player_ (Jellyfin Settings --> Client Settings --> Video Player Type --> ExoPlayer) **I am NOT facing the freezing/crashing issue when transcoding the episode!** Here's the _MediaInfo_ for the episode: ``` General Unique ID : 183030405995007521093074522968573911120 (0x89B25FBC195BAB8BB5DB93A0FF68A050) Complete name :
