Choisissez la bonne source de playback

Un titre peut avoir plus d'une version

A source choice tells Odyssey which available stream or file to play for a title. It can matter when you have the same film in two connected libraries, or when a provider offers more than one edition. A source choice is not permission to access content: you still need the relevant account, source access and rights.

Use this guide when a title opens in the wrong edition, a source fails while another is available, or you want to compare the descriptions before pressing Play. Use Add Source in player management when you need to connect an entirely new server instead.

Ouvrez les options disponibles

1. Open the title's detail screen. For a series, identify the intended episode first.
2. Choisir Changer source when that action is present. The mobile sheet is titled Choisir la source.
3. Read the source name and detail. The list distinguishes a primaire Choisir et mettre d'autres options Les sources alternatives.
4. Expansion Les sources alternatives Si vous le voyez, comparez les entrées disponibles.
5. Select the entry you want to play. On the mobile flow, choosing an entry closes the sheet and requests playback.

Si vous voulez seulement vérifier les choix, utilisez Terminer on the mobile sheet. On Apple TV, Back closes the source panel before leaving the detail screen. The presence of Change Source depends on whether Odyssey can request source choices for that title.

Décidez si vous devez vous souvenir de votre choix

La feuille source comprend Rappelez-vous de cette option. Enable it when you want the selected source to influence later source selection. Leave it off while testing several alternatives, particularly when you are diagnosing a temporary failure.

A remembered choice does not guarantee that the same file will remain available. Providers can change their catalogue or a connected source can be replaced. Return to the source picker when the saved choice no longer resolves, and compare the currently available entries rather than repeatedly retrying a removed one.

Source replacement also affects features that bind to source identities. A saved Channel Studio recipe may need its bindings reconnected independently; selecting another movie source does not repair every saved channel.

Comparer deux éditions autorisées

Suppose your home server has a theatrical cut and another authorised library has an extended cut. The longer version may start successfully but place subtitles or an old resume point in an unexpected scene. Open the detail screen, choose Changer sourceet vérifier les descriptions source avant de sélectionner le coupe souhaité.

After the change, check the title, runtime, opening picture and audio. If the descriptions do not identify the edition clearly, verify the file in the original source rather than assuming the first result is the intended one.

Quand les choix sont vides ou échouent

• Aucune modification de la source : that title or source route may not support a refreshable list of alternatives. A single available file is not evidence of a missing menu.
• Les sources de refroidissement ne produisent pas de résultat : check the connected source and the active profile's access. For an episode list, Épisodes de retrait Il est disponible lorsque l'écran détaillé rapporte l'échec correspondant.
• Une option échoue, une autre joue : record the failing option's name and whether the failure occurs immediately or later. This narrows the problem to that route or file without proving its exact cause.
• Le même film joue sur un téléphone mais pas un récepteur de télévision: receiving devices have their own format and network requirements. Follow the casting guide.

Réponse rapide

Changer une source ajoute-t-elle une nouvelle souscription ? No. It selects from what the connected sources can provide.

Une alternative garantit-elle une meilleure qualité ? No. Read the supplied detail and test the actual file. A source label is not a quality guarantee.

Dois-je supprimer la source originale pour tester une autre ? Usually there is no need. The picker lets you compare available routes without removing the server configuration.
