Thank you very much. You taught my a lot! And again focus me to the important parts.
Mediainfo: absolutely no video file plays when served by Serviio. Zip can take any mediainfo of any arbitrary YouTube mp4.
Detailed log: Starting with my intial post here on page 1, Sun Nov 10, 2013 3:58 pm,
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1557 and following email conversation I already provided this data to Zip some time ago.
You are absolutely right, we need Zip, we need someone centrally located within Serviio server, to solve the problem.
(Plex, llink, Nero MediaHome 4, myiHome indicate that it is possible.)
That done will boost the usability of Serviio server a lot!
It will allow to play many HD videos in full quality which is not yet possible even with Chromecast!
Furthermore, it will allow to command all media playing via a simple phone app, BubbleUPnP, which can route Serviio server magic untranscoded to renderers (e.g. BSPlayer, MXPlayer, ...) on the phone/tab, but also untranscoded to PCH and, with optional automatic pre-transcoding, to Chromecast and to Samsung SmartTV, etc.
Modern times ahead! But first, Zip will need to find some spare time to perform his central serviio magic. Let's wait and see!
