AVI file not showing up in library

Hello,

Until now, I've been able to get away with not posting/registering and finding answers by searching. So here's my issue. I have an AVI file that looks like it's picked up by the database no problem

  Code:

2011-07-03 18:00:48,781 DEBUG [LibraryManager] Metadata found via extractor EMBEDDED: VideoMetadata [title=file, filePath=/media/storage1/share/Video/Movies/file.avi, fileSize=734085120, audioBitrate=127, audioCodec=MP3, audioStreamIndex=1, bitrate=937, channels=2, container=AVI, contentType=UNKNOWN, coverImage=org.serviio.library.metadata.ImageDescriptor@61a414, duration=6264, episodeNumber=null, fps=23.976, frequency=48000, h264Level=null, h264Profile=null, height=352, seasonNumber=null, seriesName=null, timestampType=null, videoBitrate=null, videoCodec=MPEG4, videoStreamIndex=0, width=640]

2011-07-03 18:00:48,814 DEBUG [FolderDAOImpl] Looking for folder hierarchy Movies/file

However, when I try to watch it on my BD C5500 it's not listed where it should be. I've tried doing as others suggested and stopped Serviio, renamed it, and started it again. Still nothing. Is this possibly an issue with the profile.xml?
Here's my ffmpeg -i of the original file

Did you look under Genre "Unknown" or under the file menu to find the file name.

Looking at your log it says contenttype unknown, that might be the problem. I am not good at transcoding profiles. Some one else should be able to help you if it needs to be transcoded.

yep, look for the file under Folder category. It couldn't match 'file' to any movie/series title.

Yup, already done. Searched in the title, and in the folder structure. It's telling me in the blue ray that the folder is empty, but I see both the original file and the renamed file on the server itself. I've already made sure to chown the files before adding them to the library and still no luck.

[zip]

did you check the log if the file has been added?

I went through the log and from what I read of it, looks like it did get added to the library. The log message from my original post shows the library found it and was pulling metadata. Didn't see any error messages after that. That's kind of why I'm scratching my head on this one. I don't have the original log message as the logs have rolled. I can try to recreate the messages and put up the full log if you'd like.

Use a software render like XBMC to male sure it is there.

@moltra, not sure what that would prove. The log file says it's there, the log file says the db acknowledges the file. I even downloaded a similar file with the same results. avi file with mpeg4 codec. I would say it's a pretty common format... Here's the log from that file.

edit:
Taking another look at the logs, it looks as though Serviio keeps trying to add the file to the library, but fails. However, I'm not seeing any failure message.

Canyou try executinmg this command

  Code:

ffmpeg -i /media/storage1/share/Video/Movies/Game.Of.Death.Special.Platinum.Edition.avi -an -ss 120 -vframes 1 -f image2 <output_path>

where output_path can be something like /tmp/image.jpg

And it produced a valid image file.

was it immediate or did it take very long?

It took less than a minute to complete.

So, any suggestions on what might be going wrong here, and what I can do to fix it? I think it's more to do with Serviio itself than with the c5500. I tested the same files with another DLNA server and they played just fine.

It seems to be a bug, although not sure how to fix it. Any chance of sharing the file? If yes, PM me the location.

Sent you server information.

[zip]

tried it on my 0.6 code and all went ok. Hopefully it'll be ok for you too when it's released.

any idea on a release date for it?

any idea on a release date for it?

when its ready.

Ok, I think the database became corrupt. I completely removed and reinstalled serviio. That did the trick both movies are now playing correctly. The library wasn't accepting any new files. Not just the ones in question.
