Hmm ok, we just have to keep experimenting to find a transcoded format the TV will accept. I can't see anything in the logs that would make it not work - FFmpeg is starting correctly and I can see it transcoding.
The TV also tells us it supports the format we are offering, but it is normal for renderers to not be accurate about that.

Can you try changing the line with TranscodeVideo to the following values:
MPEGPS-MPEG2-AC3
MPEGTS-MPEG2-AC3
WMV

(one test per value)

Still nothing.

I've tried these 3 options.
Tried FFmpeg. Mencoder, TsMuxer and VLC.
On Tv there was "loading" circle...I have been waiting for 2 minutes for each engine but nothing run.
Logs in the attachment.

P.S. I installed Kodi app on my TV and run it. Picked UMS as a source of files and looked for Transcode folder. Tried to run the file from there but with no success. Even Kodi can't play these files- which is strange because UMS says that file is playing....

Thanks for the logs. Let's focus on testing with MPEGPS-MPEG2-AC3, at least at first, since that is generally the most widely supported format (it's the same as DVDs)

This is what we sent to your TV about that file:

Code: Select all

<res xmlns:dlna="urn:schemas-dlna-org:metadata-1-0/" bitrate="286223" colorDepth="8" duration="0:51:56.576" framerate="25p" nrAudioChannels="6" protocolInfo="http-get:*:video/mpeg:DLNA.ORG_PN=MPEG_PS_PAL;DLNA.ORG_OP=01" resolution="1920x1080" sampleFrequency="48000">http://192.168.30.247:5001/get/359/black.mirror.s04e04-final.mkv_transcoded_to.mpg</res>
One possible reason the TV doesn't like it is that "DLNA.ORG_OP=01" part. We can try sending different values for it, and also send no value.
The TV has told us it supports a couple of close profiles:

Code: Select all

http-get:*:video/mpeg:DLNA.ORG_PN=MPEG_PS_PAL;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=8d700000000000000000000000000000
http-get:*:video/mpeg:*
So we can try to match those.

First can you please try these two separately with MPEGPS-MPEG2-AC3:

Code: Select all

SeekByTime = true
SeekByTime = exclusive
If they both don't work I will make some custom UMS builds

Hi,

Still nothing.
I don't know if it is important, but manual says that Philips OLED805 supports only DLNA ver.1.5
Also, which renderer config should I use? I tested with the last one you've sent me and changed parameters to:

Code: Select all

TranscodeVideo = MPEGPS-MPEG2-AC3
TranscodeAudio = MP3
SeekByTime = exclusive
and as a second test switched exclusive to true.

Logs in the attachment.
P.S. Is it possible that TV needs more time than 2 minutes (after which I stopped), to read these transcoded files?

I doubt it would take longer than 2 minutes, it would usually take around 1 second and I can see your computer is keeping up with the transcoding. I'll make a test build for you as soon as possible, which may need to be later in the week

Here's the first build to test, fingers crossed! https://www.universalmediaserver.com/up ... 38b3d5.exe

Nothing :(
I am starting to think, that cause of the thing is transcoding has being blocked by the manufacturer of tv.

I think we can figure this out :)
Can you try adding this to Philips-OLED.conf

Code: Select all

SendDLNAOrgFlags = false
