The bug

Some videos of my immich are unable to play both in Android and web browser.
The videos are in external library. When a video is added to the external library, immich can discover the video, but sometimes can't play.

The OS that Immich Server is running on

Docker

Version of Immich Server

v1.113.0

Version of Immich Mobile App

v1.113.0

Platform with the issue

  • Server
  • Web
  • Mobile

Reproduction steps

  1. Add a video to external library
  2. Play the video that was just added.
  3. Sometimes the videos can play normally, and sometimes they cannot.
