Can't control (pause/resume/seek) transcoded h264 mkv's

Samsung AllShare doesnt transcode, so perhaps you can update the profile to play the file natively.

Well the problem is I can't pause transcoded files... obviously for files that it can't play natively. I probably streamed something that I force transcoded on serviio to allshare then. But I reconfirmed PS3 Media Server serves it fine with pause and seek working.

Perhaps PS3MS doesn't transcode the file either?

It does, you can choose to have it transcoded. It will also serve it natively which won't work on my TV.

Did you try to transcode to mpegPS like this?

  Code:

<Video targetContainer="mpeg" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" maxVBitrate="4096" aBitrate="192" forceInheritance="true">
            <Matches container="3gp" />
        </Video>

            <Matches container="3gp" />
        </Video>


Some progress.. Transcoding it that way enables me to pause and seek on that 3gp file but the TV tells me it doesn't support the audio codec. However, trancoding the mkv's in question the same way yields the same result as before- no pausing or seeking.

did you try to change targetContainer to mpeg wherever there is targetVCodec="mpeg2video" in the profile?

Yes, the TV identifies it as mpeg rather than mpegts but still no pausing or seeking.
