Panasonic UHD TV 2016 DXW780 Series

Hello Guys,


I have a newbie question for my TV which is a Panasonic TX-58DXW784 (European 58" 4K Viera)

- I have limited options to select from the profiles the closest to my needs is good with the audio but stretches most of the videos (I presume where transcoding is needed? ) leaving no bar at the top and bottom...

Is there any setting I can change to be able to play AC3/DTS and so on with a normal Aspect Ratio?

Thanks in advance..

Re: Panasonic UHD TV 2016 DXW780 Series

Which profile are you using?
Have you tried adjusting using the Aspect Ratio button on your remote?
As a test, what happens if you play the movie after setting your tv to use the Generic DLNA profile?

Hey There,

adjusting with the button did not help, it just makes the picture smaller, but there is no smart adjustment like in Samsung Devices

As for the Generic DLNA, the aspect ratio is just fine, but then the audio is not playing in most of the cases.... hence I tried the Panasonic profiles :S

Any suggestion I could do?

Hi,

so I chose the 2013 Panasonic profile, and at first the video is good but no audio.

So i change this line, and after this I have audio, but the aspect ratio is wrong.... I don't find it how to set it right DAR does not help either

</Video>
<!-- remux FLAC/TrueHD in MKV/MP4 to AC3, DTS (MP4) to AC3 -->
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
<!-- Matches container="matroska" vCodec="h264" aCodec="dca" / --> <!-- Uncomment this line if DTS is not supported natively --> -------------------------------->>>> This one to have sound.
<Matches container="matroska" vCodec="h264" aCodec="dts-hd" />
<Matches container="matroska" vCodec="h264" aCodec="flac" />
<Matches container="matroska" vCodec="h264" aCodec="truehd" />
<Matches container="mp4" vCodec="h264" aCodec="dca" /> <!-- E6 support??, remove this line -->

Re: Panasonic UHD TV 2016 DXW780 Series

Try the Panasonic Viera 2010 to see if it fixes the aspect ratio issue.

If it does - you have two choices:

In the Panasonic 2013 profile, keep the change you made (un-commenting that line) and remove the three lines:

  Code:
</Video>
<!-- remux FLAC/TrueHD in MKV/MP4 to AC3, DTS (MP4) to AC3 -->
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" forceInheritance="true">
This will force the both the video and audio to be transcoded, and should fix the aspect ratio. Remember after changing the profiles.xml file to restart your PC/Serviio service.

OR

Use something like mkvmerge or XMedia Recode to move/add an AC-3 audio track to the file as the first audio stream. This will enable the video to be played natively (without transcoding, which is always better).

Hi :)
i'm currently facing the same Problem.
Changing the line in 2013 profile fixed the DTS transcode for me.
Starting a 4k/10bit DTS will also start Video trancode which Ends in to high CPU load :(

found this Profile in some Posts here, but wont get it to work (Validation error).
could i get some help? or add additional lines to the 2013?

Profile:
  Code:
