MediaCodecVideoRenderer error

Describe the bug

This is something I have experienced multiple times now. After uploading some new files to my Jellyfin server, I get this error when trying to play them. I am pretty certain it is the same bug that is also described in this thread:
google/ExoPlayer#8509
It is important to note that I can still play files I uploaded some longer time ago, this only affects the newly uploaded files. This leads me to believe it is the same bug described on this post of the Jellyfin forum:
https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-solved-all-new-videos-won-t-play-anymore
I first thought I waa experiencing the same issue as the user in this thread is describing:
#1014
however he is getting an unsupported format error, the error I'm getting is different.

Also I was just looking through the logs but I can't find the error message I got on my phone anywhere in them, let me know if there might be something useful in there either way and I will make sure to upload them

I think I'm running into the same issue. What worked for me is lowering the video quality to 1080p 10MB. Anything higher than 10MB bitrate gives this error (4K doesn't work too). This is not the perfect fix, I wonder what the issue is
