Need assistance with new Roku Profiles
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2016 11:59 pm
With the release of new Roku models, the single profile included with Serviio is transcoding far too many files that don't need it. I'm starting on one now for the Roku TV, then I'll move to the latest 4K models. Once completed, I believe we'll need a total of four profiles: Roku (2014 and earlier), Roku 2015 1080p, Roku 4K and Roku TV.
The TV requires a separate profile, as it is the only one that supports MPEG2 video. However, all Roku players only support the MP4, MKV and MOV containers. I am currently struggling to get Serviio to recognize and remux MPEG2 video in an MPG container. I tried using MPEG2VIDEO in the Matches Container line, but I get an error that says to use one of these: *, mp4, asf, mpegvideo, mpeg, mjpeg, mpegts, matroska, avi, flv, wtv, ogg, 3gp, rtp, rtsp, applehttp, rm. I have a line with mpeg and mpegvideo, but the videos are not shown in the Roku Media Player on the TV. The videos are shown in MediaBrowser, so there's no issue there. The Roku web site lists these as recognized containers:
But when I tried mpeg2ps Serviio would not load, giving the error I mentioned above about a wrong container.
So, what exactly do I use to capture a file in the MPG container? I don't want to use the wildcard, as I don't want MP4 or MKV files to be captured?
