Mac to PS3 - video stop-start then "this content cannot be played"
Posted: Sun Apr 05, 2015 12:32 pm
Hi there,
I'm new at this so apologies if I have not done anything correctly (I have read the problem rules, etc).
I don't know much about the advanced options, just a user trying to stream media. I used to use PS3 Media Server a lot and only upgraded to UMS this week. I often got choppy video on PS3 MS, but used to simply pause and unpause and that would sort it out.
With UMS, my audio stops, then the video stops a short while later. Everything is still, then the audio comes back and the video starts to play again when the audio catches up to it. This happens a few times, then eventually I get a black screen and "this content cannot be played". I can reselect the video file from the beginning (the resume option doesn't work) and go through it all again.
I am on a wireless connection using a Time Capsule as a router. I have dropped the bandwidth a few times, and also lowered the buffer, but nothing seems to work. File types are varied, from mpg to avi to mkv, and various resolutions (mostly 720p or below).
Any assistance appreciated. Log file attached.
