Re: D5520 transcoding issue
test done with a bit unexpected results. FIrst, I tried playing with ffmpeg command in dos prompt and decreased output bitrate and video size. To my surprise, fps havent' changed considerably and even were worse with smaller video sizes.
Then I tried just adding maxVBitrate="64" to my profile and it worked!
However, since that does not really increase fps I tested further... I tried increasing maxVBitrate. 1024, 4096, and finaly 8192 which is more than original movie. I was surprised that ALL worked. It was more interruptions as maxVBitrate increased but there was no error on my tv. Also, I noticed that when my D5520 runs "out of stream data" it displayes "loading" in top-right corner of the screen so again, it does not report error.
So, I guess this prooves my server is too weak after all, but possibly there are impoovements to make anyway? I checked ffmpeg command in detailed log to compare difference with and without maxVBitrate used. -b setting and -maxrate are what I expected butthere is also -bufsize. Can it be that this buffer size is what helps my tv to avoid error? Can it also be used without maxVBitrate setting in profile? Can it be increased?
I guess this might help play some border-line cases.
