The good news is that the HttpHeaders search worked. Thanks, Illico.
The Video profiles also seem to work for my TV, though I did have to add some ffmpeg munging to do it. I have some video clips with audio recorded at 44100Hz that didn't play well with the current configuration. I couldn't figure out how to force a 48000Hz sample rate into the transcoding scheme, so I wrapped a shell script around ffmpeg to insert a '-ar 48000' before the '-ab' parameter, and this seemed to fix the audio dropout problem.
I can't seem to get any audio files or images to show up, though it's obvious from the TVs content selection menus that the items have been parsed by serviio.
According to the DLNA database, my model (KDL-52Z5100) does not support as wide a range of profiles as the EX models I've been reading.
Device Class: DMP
VIDEO: MPEG_PS_NTSC, MPEG_TS_SD_NA, MPEG_TS_SD_NA_ISO, MPEG_TS_SD_NA_T
AUDIO: LPCM, MP3
IMAGE: JPEG_SM, JPEG_LRG, JPEG_MED
And that's it. I've set up my own profile for this device so that I can play around with the configuration settings to see if I can get audio and images to work. I need to study the main BRAVIA thread to understand how the DLNA profiles are parsed, renamed, transcoded. It's tough since I don't even know what these things are supposed to mean. (For example: what does the JPEG_LRG profile mean? that kind of thing. I'm sure if I dig long enough, I can figure out some of this crap.)
Thanks for the software, zip, and thanks for all your experimentation efforts, illico!
