SAMSUNG H SERIES 2014

Hi,I need a profile for my Series 7 2014 TV.
I have problems with big files by using F Series profile.

Is anybody out there would could help me?

[Iveky]

what kind of problem with 'big' files?
be more precise.

Videos stutter and the sound cuts off.

Post MediaInfo details for the file.

What profile are you using on the device? What happens if you switch to the Generic Profile. What is your CPU usage when the file is playing?

the problem occurs on all videos on even at low gb with 1-2
In the Generic Profile, it is the same.
CPU utilization is at about 5%

[Iveky]

are you connecting tv to router wirelessly?

Yes but with LAN is it the same.

I'm having issues with getting the 'Online' bits to work (SopCast & AceStream). I think it's potentially down to me using the E/F profile on a H 2014 Samsung? Anyone got a newer profile for the H series?

[Iveky]

older series have problems too, H is nothing special I think, same problems as me on serie E

Sopcast & AceStream work perfectly on my TV F Series

I'm having issues with getting the 'Online' bits to work (SopCast & AceStream). I think it's potentially down to me using the E/F profile on a H 2014 Samsung? Anyone got a newer profile for the H series?

Very strange. I realised that the CPU of the laptop I was using for the Serviio server was hitting 100% CPU every now and then (was only a dual core). So I used my gaming rig which is a quad core, installed Serviio and, hey presto! all my online feeds work perfectly now (SopCast, AceStream & desktop streaming for Flash). Marvellous.

I have posted supported formats by HU-series in wiki, is it possible to make HU-profile?

Here is Samsung H series profile, this needs to be added to the profile.xml of serviio

the only differences between E/F series and H series are:

I haven't added or removed these from the above profile yet, but this should get you going.

Hi there,

I am experiencing similar problems with the Samsung UE48H6400. With 'big' files, ie films, I cannot fast forward because the Smart hub then tells me either "this video data is not supported" or "please check your network connection" and then I have to come out out of the multimedia and go back in and start from scratch. The film files tend to be mp4s or mkvs, and they worked perfectly on my previous TV, which was a Samung UE40ES6300.

My wireless router is a brand new Virgin Media "Superhub" 5GHz and is less than two metres away from the TV. When I check network status I get a full 5-bar signal report. HD streaming is smooth and trouble-free so I am concluding that the trouble lies with the communication between Serviio and the Smart hub software.

I have added the H series profile that was very kindly provided on this thread (thank you). However, the problem persists. Also, when playing music files, especially playlists (which play fine for me as m3u files), the same problem happens when I try to fast forward or jump to the next track.

Please can you advise. These problems did not exist with my previous Samsung TV.

Thank you

Have you looked to see if there is an updated firmware for the tv? I have 2 tvs (samsung un75f6400 and the new curved un65hu8700) and the only issue I'm encountering are a few mkv movies that work on the 6400 don't on the 8700. I don't, unfortunately have any m3u (are you talking about m3u playlist?) music playlists, but I'll create one or two to test if I encounter the same issue. The profile above isn't entirely complete, it's a copy of the e/f series I posted. Could you use device spy on your tvs and post the output? I'd like to compare their supported formats.

Hi Karnith,

I don't have Device Spy but I will have a rummage and see what I can come up withr. The TV doesn't support .wmv files either, even thought the format is mp4s. The TV firmware is up to date (version 1112 for the H6400). My old TV was an ES6300 and its profile, like your f-series, seemed to fare better with these video files. The H series seems to be a different breed.

When I mentioned m3u I meant music playlists. Unfortunately, Samsung has this annoying glitch with its playlists. It plays the tracks alphabetically and not in the original sequence of the playlist.

By the way, new curved TV? I saw one in a Curry's showroom. Me likey

Hi I have problems with samsung as well mode UE65H6470. Latest firmware (just updated). I see the folders but when I try to access one of them containing videos it says impossible to access. Photos seem to work.

Any ideas ?

I had numerous problems with Serviio and my H-Series TV which I bought 4 months ago.
I spent hours trying to fix it but nothing worked.

Now I switched to TVMOBiLi which is the best tool out there. Try it out, it's perfect!

Sorry Serviio but I waited way too long for a fix.

Hi,

I too have a problem with my H Series playing video. When I play an MP4 with an x264 codec it will happily play for half the movie then stop and say 'unsupported data' and offer me the choice to close or skip. I have no problems playing the same file with my F series.

I have tried using the E/F profile and altering the profiles.xml file by adding the H series profile that Karnith kindly supplied but there is no difference. I am not prepared to change to another program because everything works so well with all my other devices.

If anyone can help that would be great, if not - does anyone know when the next official update will be?

Thanks.
