AV1 on roku

Did anyone get AV1 codec to work via Jellyfin? I can play the file over a USB stick connected directly to the Roku, but just getting audio only when playing via Jellyfin.

I think there's an option in the roku Jellyfin app to enable AV1 playback. I haven't tried it myself, but I have seen it messing around with a few settings.
- Yes, I have that set to enabled.

Works fine here, encoded with handbrake
- Hmm. I also encoded with handbrake, maybe an issue with the Roku ultra?
  
  Could be, I have a Roku built in to my TCL TVs, that's what I use.

Can you check in the logs what exactly Jellyfin tries to do? Does it try to transcode for any reason?
- 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.
