Transcoding question - old MOV files

Shown below is MediaInfo output for a MOV file created by an older digital camera, with "jpeg" video and PCM audio. Could someone please tell me if this is transcodable to something a Samsung C-series TV can play, and if so, what additional lines I should add to the profile? I searched this forum and did not see any relevant reference to this format (and I am confused by the reference to JPEG, since this is a video, not a still picture format). Thank you!

I assume you're using the ffmpeg bundled with Serviio (if you haven't changed anything in the installation then it's a yes)

Suggest to add this
<Matches container="mp4" vCodec="mjpeg" aCodec="lpcm" />
in the first <video> </video> section of Samsung C/D profile.
