It does are package, remux. Not sure how to prevent this
Remux means the container format you're using isn't supported. The video and audio won't be transcoded, so this should have minimal impact only.
Edit: What container are you using? According to this list every common container format should be supported by roku.
I found the repacking setting under transcoding, let me turn that off and see if the remuxing stops.
Is that a setting specific to the roku client? I wasn't able to find it in the server settings.
No luck, movies that are mkvs require a remux. I checked the logs but could not see the reason for the remux
Sorry for the late reply. Do mkvs with other codecs (avc or hevc) also remux?
Yes, from what I can see everything sent to the Roku is being remuxed. I can triple check this, but I know that hevc is.
I couldn't really find anything on the web that would explain the remuxing :/
Have you tried asking on the Jellyfin forums? The devs probably hang out there and could help further.
I'm using MKV, but for whatever reason Jellyfin wants to remux all the MKVs 🤘
I can share the file with you if you want to see what happens? But I'm not going to put that link here lol
