JRFan:
When I try to play a video I get a message: Something went wrong with playback. Playback can not be started on the selected output. I don't understand this message since all my Audio can be played. Even all sample rates are working. DSP studio has all the proper conversions. My receiver natively plays 48 kHz. Video was playing back as recently as a month ago.

I'm at a loss as to what to try and am hoping someone has an idea to try to fix it.

JimH:
Describe your setup a little.

Try rebooting first.

TheShoe:
This happens occasionally to me on one of my setups that is connected to a soundbar.  Usually powering down all the devices in the HDMI chain resolves it — the PC, soundbar, and TV in this case.  I think it may be a weird HDMI handshake issue that occurs when mixed content is played over a long period of time.  But honestly don’t know.

The other cause is that sometimes the Windows Sound configuration for reasons I can’t explain reverts to a different audio device (I use nVidia sound drivers when playing over HDMI).  Assuming Windows here, go into the Control Panel->Sound and see what audio device is configured for your HDMI connection (again, assuming you are playing video/audio both to HDMI).

Hard to help without more info…

JimH:
Google EDID problems.

JRFan:
Rebooted. No change.
I am running a Gigabyte brix as the server connected to an Anthem AVM 70 receiver though HDMI to a Panasonic 4k display.
The OS is Windows 11. The default sound device is the AVM 70. Supported formats include all the surround formats Dolby Digital.
I am running the latest version of J River.
Since my post I have tried the help.
In the video options I have Video mode is Red October standard. I toggled both the Hardware acceleration off and back on. The same for the VideoClock.
Under the Audio options I have turned bit streaming off.
I have tried various Audio Devices, the only one that played any video was Null Output. So the error message seems legit.
