I have switched from Emby to Infuse and have noticed the issue above. As you can see in the screenshot above there is some green/blue overlay in parts of the video. This happens through the video but not always. It happens on macOS, tvOS and iOS. It has to be an Infuse issues since it doesn’t happen when playing back using Emby on tvOS or Quick Time on macOS.

Please fix it. I really love Infuse but for now I’ll have to use Emby again.

I did a little digging. The original MKV file plays fine and so does the ffmpeg converted MP4. The ffmpeg MP4 is not playable in QuickTime so I fixed it using MP4Box. After using MP4Box it works in QuickTime but it also introduces the Infuse errors.
ChatGPT says something about the RPU misalignment in the resulting MP4, which QuickTime supposedly tolerates but Infuse does not.

I guess I’ll give up on QuickTime compatibility.

If you can send in a sample video we can try and take a look.

4

Is there an upload limit? The file is quite large at 7 GB and trying to cut it results in the video behaving weird in both QT and Infuse.

5

I think it should go if I remember correctly.

I uploaded the whole MP4 file. The problems happens throughout but the example in the screenshot is around minute 11.

Yes, files of any size can be uploaded with that link.
