Another Samsung thread "An error occurred"

[Mavrik347]

Hi Sub_Junk, thanks for that. The I tested a film showing as an MKV file and it's now playing and the quality issue is fixed so that's great.

The MKV file that was showing as an AVI is now showing as an MPEG, along with a couple others. I imagine to do with encoding? However they all just show "An error occured".
Thanks for your help on this.

Ok cool, can you try to force detection in UMS of other Samsung TVs to see if another profile works? I suggest trying "Samsung LED UHD" and some others if that doesn't work. That can be done on the General Settings tab, select the "Default renderer when automatic detection fails", and enable the "Force default renderer" setting.

Edit: The main thing we are interested in now is finding a config that will let your TV accept transcoded video

Hi Sub_Junk, thanks again for coming back.

So far I've tried:
Samsung 8 Series
Samsung 9 Series
Samsung LED UHD
Samsung Q6 Series
Samsung Q7 Series
Samsung Q9 Series
Samsung QLED 4K 2019+

None of these are working, I am pressing the restart server button at the top after each change, is that right or do I need to restart the whole program?

Edit: I've just noticed, that when I click on the living room TV, it's showing as Samsung-UHD-2019.conf even though "Samsung Q6 Series" and Force default renderer are enabled. Is this correct?

[SubJunk]

It's probably safer to restart the whole program after making those changes, sorry!

Hello,

at my new Samsung GQ55QN93A (same like xxQN90A) the same error occurred on transoding DTS files to the Samsung TV.

Manual: https://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/ ... 0910.0.pdf

I use the SubJunks config file from this thread Sep 03, 2021 3:59. The technical details looks same at the manual.
I browse to the #transcode folder, starts the file, the error occurres, when i play the file without transcoding... there is no sound.

Thank you for your support und sorry for my bumpy english...

[SubJunk]

Thanks for the logs. I have attached a new config for you to try please:

and then we start transcoding with:

they seem to communicate about the file but I guess that conversation doesn't go how the TV expects. We send:

Hello SubJunk

thanks for your answer.

I downloaded and installed your new Config-File as described.
But no dts-files (try >10 different ) are working, they show the same error.

Log and some pictures attached.
Notice for analysis:
The file directory has changed, about a rebuild of the PC.
Thats also the reason for the long time to my answer...

Thanks, I have a couple of other flags to try, so I'll do two posts for the renderer configs. This one has DLNALocalizationRequired=true
