Serviio

Greets One And All
Been using Serviio for a while now and LOVE it but have to questions regarding one of the TV’s on my network. One of them a Sony KDL22EX320 and all is fine with that one and a Samsung LE40B651 and that is the one I need help with

1. How do I tell what series the Samsung TV is (Running B series Profile at the moment)
I can play mkv files via the usb port on side of the TV but can’t play through Serviio (unsupported file format)

2. Is this a problem with the way Samsung implements DLNA or a problem with the profile I am using and it needs editing

Hopefully the second one because I cannot hack or edit Samsung’s crapness
Any help is greatfully appreciate

Its the B in Samsung LE40B651. LE is the type, 40 is the size and B is the Series.

The B profile should work fine. Do you have Transcoding turned on in the console?

Pick a file that does not play. Post its details per my sig ,Turn on debug per my sig , play the file and attach the log so we can debug for you.

Thanks for the reply will do that when can fig out how to per yer intstructions.
Might be a bit slow cuz im slow. Cheers

Sorry its taken so long for me to reply. Partner suprised me with a few days away,

There is nopw no issue mkv's play fine. I thought just incase i removed the Samasung from the media renderers list stoped serviio server rebooted PC (and router and modem for good measure) and turned TV off
After the PC had rebooted i turned on TV refreshed renderers list "JOY IT WORKS"

Sometimes a Reboot solves things i dont understand (other times its a large hammer)
