Netgear NTV300SL profile; fast-forward/rewind possible?

First, I'd like to share my profile for any other Netgear NTV300SL users. Basically it just transforms AVIs into "mpegts" containers. Is there a better way to do this? When I used the "Default DLNA" profile my AVIs and MKV files don't show up as available to be played.

  Code:
   <Profile id="ntv300sl" name="Netgear NTV300SL" extendsProfileId="1">
      <Detection>
         <UPnPSearch>
           <FriendlyName>NeoTV Max</FriendlyName>
           <Manufacturer>MTK</Manufacturer>
         </UPnPSearch>
      </Detection>
      <Transcoding>
         <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" DAR="16:9" >
            <Matches container="avi" />
            <Matches container="matroska" />
         </Video>
      </Transcoding>
   </Profile>


Second, I'd like to ask for any suggestions on how to get fast forward and rewind to work on AVI videos. It works fine on MP4s. My first thought was to have serviio turn the AVIs into MP4 files, but it looks like that isn't supported. My second thought was to turn the AVIs into "asf" containers (on the off chance that the Netgear likes that better), but that didn't work. Maybe I did it wrong.

And finally, thanks for making Serviio. I've evaluated several DLNA servers and its #1 on my list of server candidates.

It will also transcode them to mpeg2 video streams. It's possible the player will play (at least avi) natively, but the mime-type Serviio uses might be different to what the player supports. You could change that by overriding the avi MediaFormapProfile (see other profiles on how to do it)

Have you gotten fast-forward to work?

If so, can you re-post the working profile?

If you have the new firmware version 2.1.48NA select the LG TV / player profile, this will give you full fast forward, rewind, pause etc.
