Wrong type of video file?

Sonarr version (exact version): Sonarr Ver. 2.0.0.4326
Description of issue: My “playon” downloaded movies play fine on Roku and the smart TV but movies downloaded through Sonarr do not play or are not recognized by Roku or the smart TV. When you browse to the folder it does not even show the Usenet shows.
Is there some option that I need to change in Sonarr, or something that I should add to Roku (like more codex’s) ?

Perhaps this format will work better if it is saved to a Plex system?

You’re not going to be able to control much, most content is x264 now (some h264), if it can’t handle the content I"d look for something else.

Plex would handle that much better (no issues with x264/h264) and if it needs to transcode to play properly on the device your using it will do so automatically (as long as the server running Plex Media Server supports it).
