Compatible devices list

After trying the Samsung software using VMware (No go) and Eyeconnect (No go) and reading way too many posts, I found this software, and it's a GO. Thanks!

TV is LN55B650, connected to an Airport Express, which is wirelessly connecting to an Airport Extreme.

The issue is the machine ip address.
Once I entered the Mac ip address under "Bound ip" all is working well.

Cheers,

I am using serviio 0.31 on Mac OSX 10.6 with an LG Blu-ray soundbar, LG HLB54S.

everything works fine, except for mp3 playback. This is maybe an encoding problem from Itunes, however other osx compatible dlna servers I have tested worked fine with the same music files. I tried eyeconnect, playback and medialink but finally I prefer Serviio which has been sofar the most reliable solution.

regards,

Jacques

My Denon AVR 3310 recongnizes the Serviio server and lists it under the media servers list. Unfortunately, it is marked as "> Serviio (MacPro.local) (Not Authorized)" and is unusable. I've tried all the supplied Serviio Renderer profiles but none has worked. Interestingly enough, MediaLink *does* work perfectly.

Do you have port 8895 available in your firewall? I presume you do since you can see the server. Not sure what could be causing this since DLNA doesn't specify anything about authorization.

I have it running with my WDTV Live.
My Denon AVR 4310 does not list it in Media Servers.

FYI - I had a problem with my WDTV seeing Serviio at first, but it was because I was running PS3 Media Server at the same time. After I ran it by itself, it worked fine.

Hi guys,

I tried my WDTV live with serviio ( I am a new user) yesterday but it doesnt play mkv files for some reason. Any idea why. Wdtv supports dts and mkv files, so thts defnately not an issue but wdtv error message said something about the format though, which meant its not supported. Help would be appreciated. I have tried multiple(around 30) files only 2 of them worked. i am talking about 720p to 1080p mkv files with ac3 or dts audio.

So some mkv worked? That would mean the mime-type is correct. If n omkv files worked, try switching to other renderer profile (in the console) to see if it works.

Aite, so i tried again with a differnt profile, it lists the movies perfectly but movies dont work. That 1 mkv still works but others dont, i tried a mkv on serviio and then put the same on windows server, it works from the wmp library but not on serviio. Waiting for your reply

Not sure how is your IT, but you could install Wireshark and try to catch packets sent from WMP when requesting this file. It should show what mime-type is being used.

BTW, how can WMP stream this, is it the new feature of W7? Does it transcode the file on the fly or play in native format? Does WMP even support MKV or did you install some codecs?

Well i did install a codec pack (k-lite). I basically added the file in WMP library and once it was there it comes into my media server (windows network sharing) and it doesnt transcode because wdtv can play mkv files by itself including dts audio.

And regarding your first question, right now i have no idea what you told me to do but i will still do it by this evening and let you know the results.

Thnx

Somehow iti s not working with my samsung LE40B650, I don't know what might be the reason..any help would be appreciated.

arite i tried that software and couldnt get around that, could you suggest something else? and windows lybrary still works
but serviio doesnt on same files.

I use serviio to stream files from a Linux server to my Oppo blu-ray player BDP-83. The Oppo player is uPnP/DLNA-capable listed in some of the wiki pages on DLNA-capable devices. The TV is relevant as video and audio stream from the server via the Oppo through my Onkyo TSX-850.

It works out of the box with my Samsung BD-C5500 Blu-ray player which means it should also work with the BD-C6500 as well. For having such a short shelf life this project is extremely polished, amazing work by one person! Thanks a lot. I hope I can contribute to your efforts in the future. The firmware on these devices is a moving target at this point, they are really new.

I'm using Serviio to stream from a WHS (HP EX485) to my WDTV Live. It displays and plays the .MKV files I have on my server fine, and displays the photographs. I'm hoping the next version has support for audio playlists (it doesn't seem to have it yet, unless I'm missing something!)

Now if I could gain more control over the WDTV Live UI, it could be a winner! Everything is so deeply nested on the WDTV Live that the WAF is sorely lacking!

Samsung BD-C5500 (Bluray Disc Player).

LN40B650 TV. very good

Samsung BD-C5500 (Bluray Disc Player).

Ditto on Samsung BD-C5500 Bluray Disc Player....... should mean the C6500 and C6900 will be OK too

Just select the WiselinkPro profile and ensure you stop/start the Serviio server

I'm using a Samsung BD-c5500 bluray player.

Videos are detected fine, but audio files are not detecting for me. The structure of the folders containing audio files is available to browse, but the content is not visible. Transcoding fails for very few videos.

Sometimes Serviio will go through a spat of disconnecting constantly, then becomes stable again. I don't know if it's related, but times I've noticed it have been after saving changes to the shared folder settings.

I'm not sure how this player works, but on my TV you have to be in the proper Samsung's category (e.g. Audio, Video, Images) as it will filter out any content that doesn't belong to that category even though it will let you browse Serviio's folders.
